This is for ooc discussion. Before we get started let me make some thigns clear.
1.Minimal metagaming: It happens and I don't particularly mind it so much. But blatant metagaming won't be tolerated. Sneaking into he group whose ahead of you to get an idea of what's next might be unwise anyway since I expect both groups to operate very differently.
2. I fill in gaps.: For the sake of clarification and story it's not uncommon for me to fill in gaps in character backstories that have remained empty or vague. This is mostly to make the backstory fit the game or to give a character incentive to take part in soemthign he'd otherwise not care about.
3. How combat works.: Essentially I roll everyones initiative and take the average of those rolls as the groups initiative. Same as the badguys. Initiative for the group itself is done in order of posting. If there have been a bunch of posts and you have not posted for 24 hours since the last actions than you'll get NPCed for that action so we can get through the combats quickly. I'll use a battlemap with X/Y coordinates to make things simpler on you.
4. Ask questions: If you need to know something; ask. preferrably with some kind of roll attached. That way I don't have to ask for them. Sometimes I'll roll knowledge checks ahead of time so I can give ou that knowledge beforehand to save time. But not often.
5. Posting: Let me know ahead of time if you can't post for a day or two for some reason. One psot a day is the minimum I ask, If you disappear for three or four days without notice expect to be replaced and not let back in until someoen drops again.
In any case I'm giving everyone a chance to finish their characters or make any appropriate changes they might want to do now that they are aware of what the rest of their party consists of I will post Incharacter threads this weekend with a deadline for finished characters on friday. In the meantime I have to watch a movie under the vague promise of getting laid s I'll brb.
Humm what do you mean by both groups? I am a bit lost about that point.

Making some edits jsut copy/pasting this from another game. Disregard that.
heh, that has happened to me a few times as well. Will disregard.
Feel free to adjust my backstory how ever you need. This will be my first experience with PbP so I am excited to see how it will work.
I intentionally left parts of the backstory vague in order to allow the DM space to insert as needed. I have no problems with that!
hmmm... OK I am out of practice, how do I create another alias?
Should eb able to do it under the My Account link near the top of the page.
I assume that we would have been told if we were accepted, right? I did not get such a notification so I assume I didn't make the cut. That's cool and all. I just wanted to clarify.

never mind. I just saw my answer. I misread it the first time. Enjoy the game. Let me know if you need another. Ive been playing around with Boodmaster builds too. ;--)

Ahhh... found it. Under alias, at the bottom is 'create new alias'
OK now that I have added a dot next to the thread, I will make the changes/updates tonight or tomorrow. :)
Looks like 4 out of the 5 checked in.
So when is this supposed to kick off?
Well sadly it seems like we're missing one. But I'm honestly fine with four. I'll have a proper thread up sometime sunday.

Gonna have to redo Jathal a bit, the new FAQ has changed a few things from how I thought they worked :)
Oh lookee there. Im going ot ahve to take a look now.
Mostly the ones that effect me are : Armor does not work when fused and stuff like enlarge person also do not work.

Yea that's a shame, plus you cna only heal with restore eidolon but I seriously doubt that's a problem in this group.
I can see the point on enlarge person. I do not agree on the armor, but it is probably for the best balance wise.
I havenae done PbP in over a year. Is it preferred to put speech in bold?

It's a preference on these boards. Makes dialogue easier to see so people dont get mixed up on what others are saying.
We still doing this or what?
Hey guys I was in an accident (yes another one) that totaled the car (well truck) and got a bit beat up. I'll update as soon as I can.
Yikes, well take your time. Was afraid we lsot you. Glad I was wrong.

Ouch!
'another' = double ouch!!Hope all is, and continues to be, well.
I got a finalist in a writing competition and will be afk for a couple days. I will continue to lurk through my phone however.
We still alive here guys?
Well I dunno anymore let's see. Who's left?
We still alive here guys?
& me makes three. :)
I really only check the ooc if there is something complicated happening in character thread. It looks like N'Gurai might have done the same thing. However ...game on! :)
