Yep. Those are the guys in real life. But who are they here? As the zombie noted, I don't know them in the flesh, but my explanation for their sudden petition may be traced to knowing them here under some nom de net. Then again, how much easier it would be if people just made it clear who they were when they sent such requests...

Mairkurion {tm} |

Honestly, what likely occurred is that they saw you as a mutual friend of other 'gamers' on FB and submitted a friend request. Kinda like what people did with Keith Polston. ;P
I like to give people a chance before I hit IGNORE, IGNORE, 1000 TIMES IGNORE! Mayhap they see my posting and say, damn, that guy can write. Like, double honors quality!

Hey, Ashy! Pardon me just one moment.
{HA-HA! In yo FACE Urizen! I have succeeded!}
Ahem.
Just wanted to see if I knew you guys from Paizo, thanks for responding, Ashy. Are you the only member of the quadrumvirate that posts over here?
What all are you Alabama boys up to? Writing fantasy? Gaming material? I noticed you weren't in the Pathfinder Compatibility Registry.

Hold up. There's some Alabama folks putting out gaming material and they haven't come by a meeting of the Birmingham Area D&D Meet-Up yet? Seriously? Go there now!
(I'm Eric, the supposed organizer, although a 4-month old has been curtailing my duties there and Glenn has been picking up my slack...)

LOL - yea, I'm pretty much the only one of the four of us who posts over here, and only three of us currently reside in Alabama (one is originally from AL, but currently lives in MS; and one of us is not originally from AL, but anywho...). Currently, we're working on marketing and spreading the word of our new CBRPG, Untold (http://untoldthegame.com). :D
Feel free to ask as many questions as ya like! :D

Actually, my Google-Fu aided me; I've got a subscription that pulls out any reference to "wandering men" or "untold" or "untold the game" and lets me know who's chatting about us on the interwebs; so I moseyed on over. :D

Awesome, Erian! I did not know this place even existed! One of our number lives in B'ham, so we'll definitely be hooking up with you guys! Are you all going to be at Imagicon next weekend? We're guests there!

What a day. Rest your head, wearied from exploding.
Hopefully, Ashy will wander back tomorrow to answer some of my pressing questions. Maybe even his fellows will find their way back with him.
Aye - I can poke my head in over here in the evenings; paizo's blocked from work... :(

Saw a copy of their Skein of Shadows paperback used on Amazon for $3.90 plus shipping, so based on the good reviews I figure I'd check 'em out. What's even better is that it's an autographed copy.
Yes. It is funny how the universe works. ;)
If you get it from Amazon or Barnes and Nobel, it won't be autographed, if you get it from us, it will be however. :)

There are also some good reviews of Skein over here:

I'm, sure we'll have lots of members at the con--I may be able to attend but am not sure just yet...
We love to have publishing folks pop in and demo stuff, so definitely let's get something going there. And of course, anyone can pop in any time for a game! Although it is ostensibly the "D&D" meet-up, we have everything from Savage Tide to Traveller to CoC running on any given meeting. Once I get back to regular attendance, I'll be holding the fort for regular PRPG games...

It's late, so I'll post again tomorrow.
But for now, I will simply say: Me...Universe...Urizen: HAH!

LOL - yea, I'm pretty much the only one of the four of us who posts over here, and only three of us currently reside in Alabama (one is originally from AL, but currently lives in MS; and one of us is not originally from AL, but anywho...). Currently, we're working on marketing and spreading the word of our new CBRPG, Untold (http://untoldthegame.com). :DFeel free to ask as many questions as ya like! :D
Okay, Ashy. I'm at a resting point in grading, and I'm kicking back a Guinness/vanilla ice cream float. I went and poked around your site a little.
So, you guys have published/are publishing some novels, and are publishing a new RPG that is also a card game. I have only looked at card games from afar. What can you say to someone who looks at this combo and says, "Huh. Huh?"
Also, allow me to make a recommendation: you guys ought to try and go on Atomic Array, the best RPG podcast in Human History, and talk about your stuff. That's a great way for folks to raise awareness of your products.

LOL - sorry, haven't had much time to reply this week, what with all the site updates (http://www.untoldthegame.com) and getting ready for Mobicon this weekend. Suffice it to say (for now - longer explanation coming) that we don't do anything like anybody else. We're ALWAYS redefining paradigms - it's one of the things we do best. Untold's a prime example of that. :D

Just to let everyone know, if you'd like to keep track of what's happening with Untold, there's a thread here: http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/community/gaming/otherRPGs/untoldLaunc hes&page=1#12

Haven't started yet (it's on my ever growing pile of books-to-read), but it did arrive and it did have three signatures. :D
