And chat is working again (with no response or evidence of efforts from the site admin). There are some chatters that would rather not use slack.com. It's up to everyone involved to decide for themselves what they want to use, but for now, people seem to be gravitating back to the original chat as long as it works.
Paizo chat is the only part of the internet that I try to access that fails. Besides, the site comes up fine, it just doesn't respond to text input. I think there is just a usual DB buildup problem that needs to be handled every so often. Unfortunately, I still haven't heard back at all from the admin. Until he responds in some way, this is out of my hands.
Still no sign of a response from the admin. Not sure what's happening.The system is down! Doooooom... Doooooom...Doooooom...
Well that was unexpected. For some reason my first thought was jumping off one end of a ship and having the ship's gravity swing you around to the other end of the ship. But it has been made clear there are people who do not like this mechanic, including the atmosphere envelope around the ship. So I won't treat this like SpellJammer in Pathfinder. However, I will be watching closely for the aspects it entertains.
The counselor said I should be fit for duty. My hindered ability to walk should pass eventually since I'm no longer being, as my captors put it, "aggressively examined". I guess the fact that I can no longer make out the color puce won't be too much of a hindrance. I'm ready to get back out there and cap me some stickmen. But I have to say, after being under that bright light so many times, I'm feeling more of a strange kinship with our enemies. It's probably just compensation for the guilt I feel for not entirely acquiescing to what they made me realize that I really knew all along. I guess that's just something I'll have to keep between me and them. After all, no one can really understand what I went through. But they try, oh they try. If only they would stop trying, it would prevent these other thoughts I'm having. I just... really need to have that rifle in may hands again. Glowing flowery highlights might be nice...
Journal Entry 1 I never thought I'd write one of these. The only light I have to write by is the radioactive glow coming from my spleen. I'm writing with my nose because they are trying to turn me into a pencil. The food here is awful - they call them nutritional supplements, but I think they are only fit for an overaccepting pekingese. My cellmate is babbling about quantum realities exposed in his brain. Got to go, looks like it's time for another biogel transfusion.
I just picked this up and have been reading through it. The Castle from 1e is still there with what seems to be the usual and familiar trappings. Strahd is detailed in the appendix, naturally. Mike Schley, the cartographer for the product, is offering DM and player friendly digital maps on his site. However, BIG CAUTION HERE... his bundle does NOT include the maps for Castle Ravenloft itself. Those maps appear to have been recreated once again in isometric style and placed in the book throughout the chapter detailing the castle. I was hoping to run this online. But without overhead 2d maps to use for the castle, I'll have to make my own. So, points off there. Get with the program, Wizards! Card-driven goals, treasure locations, helpful NPCs, etc. are still there. There are also plenty of other quest locations to get PCs from level 1 to 10. I don't know how well the adventure compares to Return to Castle Ravenloft from 3.5, but the 1e Ravenloft adventure is mostly fully included. So far I've had a few quibbles about how certain evocative phrases were worded as I recall them from the 1e days. They sound more conversational in the 5e version, which threw me off from a reading enjoyment standpoint.
