Take care, Tenro.

Boglins. Connection issues. Thunder does not agree with our internet.

Connection issues - back again, like a bad penny.

Sorry to see you go Safier, but maybe we'll get a chance to game together in the future.

Aubs, your 4e games sounds a thing of wonder. We have a home campaign sitting in Paragon stasis until all the group babies grow up enough for the parents to come back and play. We're patient in Yorkshire.

Thanks! At the moment I have a mixture of young offenders and end of sentence long-time inmates working towards resettlement. Very, very varied.

Still digging through and posting as I find stuff that looks helpful. I now officially have a PGCE (Post Grad Cert in Education) and am allowed to do what I've been doing for the last two months :)

In honor of Rik Mayall, I'm playing Cliff Richard's Wired for Sound 12 hours straight.

Tribute indeed.

Archibald Craven is one of my all-time dream roles :)

With good reason since he is many shades of wonderful. Such a good show, I'm half glad it's not done very often and half very angry that it isn't done more often.

The injury was related to stepping two inches up onto a pavement from the road at the Birmingham Hilton (we'd gone to UK Games Expo). I spent most of last week explaining this to a bunch of young offenders who were mightily impressed by the strength of my jaw.

"Shoulda bust that miss, you was well lucky"
"Errm ... thanks?"

Theatre still goes on. I'm due to start a production of The Secret Garden at the end of the month - looking forward to it.

Much better thanks - still have some bruises appearing, but very much on the mend.

Interesting. Felt like they've outgrown the space already (only the second year there). Much better in the afternoon and on the Sunday morning when things slacked off a bit and it was possible to get to the stands. Tripped over an iron bollard and knocked out two teeth plus much bruising, so I saw most of it in a pink pain-killed blur.

Yes - we're heading to B'ham and UK Games Expo. Have a good time in France.

Ah, it sounds idyllic.

Hope you have a wonderful time Tordek. And your parents as well.

Sorry I've been a bit absent. Finishing PGCE and starting work in the same 48 hours has made it a little hectic. Irivis just told Arakan about the crazy elf over on the game thread.

Who needs new or upgraded kit? We have money so we might as well sort ourselves out before Aubs opens the doors of doom on us.

Strange, yet adorable. Clearly you are raising another gamer. Good for you, FW.

I may have to go slightly incommunicado for a few days. My PGCE is coming to an end and I have to finish up a couple of essays, write a reflective diary, do one more observation and attend an induction at the local nick where I'm going to be teaching offenders the errors of their grammatical ways. It should not make too much difference, but just to warn you in case I vanish.

Congratulations on the job :)

Hope it wasn't anything too serious/expensive and just annoying (if that makes sense).

It's good to be back. Been a harsh year in some ways but things are looking up a lot now. Offender learning knocks many coloured spots off teaching in schools or theatres. Much better discipline and much smaller classes to name only two benefits.

They build those gnomes tough down your way.

CH - got it and replied.

You have reason to be jealous. It's well on the way to sublime.

Very good types, but you have to hunt for them. Mostly it's just goop inside very thin chocolate and instant sugar overload. Plus a gazillion adverts for what to do with a Cadbury Egg.

I thought chocolate eggs were pretty universal, which only goes to show how wrong you can be.

Treated myself to a Hotel Chocolat Rocky Road extra thick egg. This is a reward for nearly finishing my PGCE and also getting a job last week.

Happy Easter.

Happy Easter folks.

It sounds fantastic. You (and they) must be so proud.

Wow.

Mur, that is all kinds of amazing. Your students must get so much from this. Superleague for engineers.

Aubrey - yes. Can use that.

Aubrey:

Tordek - was going along similar lines myself. It makes sense.

Works for me. I'll dicker about with the numbers later today. Do you want her at level 3?

Celestial! Lovely to see you again and thank you so much for taking Angalia back.

The pace isn't an issue - it's longevity that matters. Words which can apply in oh-so-many contexts.

Hi Mur :)

Shall bump her up.

Seems quite likely to me. Irivis (probably) isn't exactly persona non grata in Tyr, but she's be unlikely to want to go there in any way that might get her noticed. Calla and Gorad weren't a particularly discreet pairing.

Thanks all :)

Things are much better. I'm doing a PGCE (Post Grad Certificate in Education) and focusing on adult literacy and offender learning. That finishes late May and hopefully work will happen as a result.

Not until I've finished reading the thread. Will think about it. Knowing Irivis, it will have been some trivial reason blown up out of all proportion to its actual importance.

Ah, thanks for that Tordek. I'll get on with leveling her up.

Angalia's not really a natural healer, so getting her out of there might be a good idea before she joins the ranks of the permanently dislocated.

What level are you all at now? It's going to take a while to sort her out :)

Hi all :)

I'm edging back into circulation.

Did Angalia die somewhere along the line or could she re-join you all if you're willing? No pressure and certainly no rush. If things have moved too far ahead, I'll completely understand.

On closer inspection, Irivis is already level 2.

Greetings :)

Aubs, if you're still willing to have me back, I've got a little time this week to bring myself and Irivis up to speed. Assuming you didn't kill her . . . (I admit I haven't checked yet).

What do I need to do to update her - anything fancy other than making her level 2?

Hi yourself :) It's been a while, but I'm slowly making my way back to the boards. I'm re-training as a teacher in offender learning. I don't want to derail this thread, but if I survive the next couple of weeks, any chance you might be able to slot me back into Dark Sun?

If you're looking at completed APs via PbP I suspect you'll have a very limited pool to draw on. There are a few exceptions, but most PbP games collapse and die within 3 months.

What might be interesting from your perspective is widening the definition of your success pool and seeing how many completed games of any length you can find.

If you do decide to take that route, I can offer a few :)

I will also keep checking back in. Once I get the worst of my course out of the way (probably mid May) I'd be up for running something if Grim doesn't re-surface.
