Hey Dithering Fool, I hope it’s OK if I post this here. I don’t know if you have seen any of my post regarding how my work has also blocked access to Paizo.com. I thought I was going to have of drop out of all of my PbP games because 90% of my posts are from work. Well with a little helpful advice from some people here on the boards I was able to come up with solution. I don’t want this post to get to long so I’m putting “the rest of the story” under a spoiler button.

Spoiler:

First of all Google.com is a huge help. With Google Translate you can translate from language “x” into English. This worked great for me except I could not log in to my account. Also, SurfControl’s AI learned to block me once I used each language one time.

What is working really well for me is to use the Google Reader. First of all I logged into Paizo.com from home. Then I subscribed to all the threads I’m playing in. I had problems doing this at first because my primary web browser (Juno) did not support this option. With Mozilla Firefox I had no problem at all. With the Google Reader I get to keep up with my games as all my fellow gamers post. I open a word document and write my post. Then, just before I head home, I e-mail the document to my home address. Then when I get home I spend a few short minutes cutting and pasting and I’m done! As a matter of fact, I’m cutting and pasting right now. I wrote this message (and others) hours ago. My work has not blocked Invisible Castle (yet) so I’m able to make all my necessary rolls.

I hope this helps. :)


Hey there DitheringFool,

Your game and In Character threads are a joy to read. Glad to see you back on the boards.

If you get a chance you might want to check out Cry Havocs! RotRL game.

Cheers and Goodnight!

The Eye of ManPig never sleeps.


Hey, where did everybody go?

EDIT: Oh,everybody is over on the IC thread. Nevermind.

I would like to play in your game, Lilith.

Edit: however I do not think me and the chatroom will get on. As a technophobe I shall leave this form of combat to others.

All the best

Cheers

Hello French Wolf. Please don't let the chatroom be a stumbling block. I logged into the chatroom for the first time (in any chatroom) this week. I found it to be very easy to use and very welcoming. It is easier to use than the message boards here at Paizo IMHO. I was a little intimidated at the thought of logging on there but I am glad I did.

My two cents.


Lucienne is back! Yay!


Yeah! I will be part of this game. Whether as a player, alternate, or lurker is yet to be determined. :)

EDIT: How soon do you want to see the character sheets? That is, before of after the final selection? I'm going to start work on my character ASAP hoping that he will land is someones game eventually. Unfortunately ASAP for me might mean a couple of weeks before it's completely ready.


MythrilDragon, I really liked how you put Prat's impression of fellow adventurers on his profile page. I'm going to do that with some of my PbP character first chance I get.

PS Great game!


Done.


Never mind me; I just thought I would “eyeball” your game discussion. DitheringFool tipped me off to this game in another thread. On one hand I’m sorry I missed out on a chance to play in this game. I had a great time adventuring with Caerival Master of Shank Wood (and Gloam) in Sandpoint. Unfortunately that game has ground to a halt. On the other hand I’m already adventuring in Falcon’s Hollow in our common adventuring friend Radavel’s game.

I will be checking in on ya’lls game on a regular basis. A lurker’s work is never done…

PS DitheringFool, does Prat know you stole his avatar?


Never mind me, I'm just looking around. :D

PS This is how I keep track of the games I'm lurking. Sorry for the interruption.


Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays! Happy New Year!


I love the journal entries. This is definitely one of my favorite threads.
