Speaking of, I've got open Recruitments for Five PbPs in case any of you Monkey/Tree folk are interested...

Here.

Gunslinger game looks like it could be cool. How are you planning on running the game? I don't think I've ever gamed with you, and I always try to get an idea of the GM's "style" before making a character.

That's an interesting question.

I'd say my style is similar to that of Patrick's. I am not a rules stickler and I favor heavy RP. I'm not afraid to move away from the AP at times when the PCs action stake them elsewhere and I'll seek I/C reasons to guide them back on the path when it's time to head back.

That said, this particular game will be a shoot 'em up so combat will likely be fast and deadly and mostly ranged.

I play Mythaniel in Pat's Suicide Squad game FYI :-)

Probably my best "work" as it were on the boards is in the V20 Dark Ages game. Obviously I am Storyteller Shadow in that game. Click on my Profile and you'll find that thread. Should give you an indication of my DM style even though it is not a Pathfinder system game.

Alright, sounds doable. I didn't forget about Mythaniel-- I don't think I've ever had you as a GM, but I've been on the forums for over 10 years, and I've played in a lot of PbPs, so there's always the chance I just forgot one.

Any particular party roles that need to get filled?

Nope you've never been in one of my games before. Until two or three years ago I only ever ran the V20 game here on the boards and for years the PCs were pretty steady (with the occasional drop off when you have 13 players its tough to keep all of them for years on end).

I am not a big believer in party roles. I'd prefer players to play what they want to play, keeps 'em in the game longer.

Yeah, when I was a kid he was James Bond so whenever I think James Bond I think of him.

Exactly, me too.

I like Connery, a lot, and respect the heck out of him. And I Loved Pierce Brosnan in the part, But When I think of "Bond. James Bond." I always picture Roger Moore first.

That explains how I got in, I met BOTH requirements...


So close to vacation...


Patrick! I just talked to your bosses. They think that you just had a wonderful idea. I told them that your idea was to work all the way through the weekend. Who needs a vacation? Not you!

~RUNS~


SHAROTH! I just talked to YOUR bosses! They loved my 'hire a kobold minion' proposal! Expect the first batch of eager kobolds rearranging your hoard by tomorrow at the latest.

to me he is just the dude that isn't Sean Connery. But my dad loves him. I'm sorry he's gone, but he lived a good long life.

Tell me about it. In about a month I'll hit the end of my 12th year posting on the boards. That's longer than I've been married and twice as long as I've been a father. F%*&ing weird, man.


That makes me feel young. I've been here for less than a year.

~Waves my cane at Kileanna~ You young whipper snapper! Why in my day we had to sent our posts by pony express!


~laughter~ I just started to watch The Cannonball Run. I am going to miss Sir Rodger Moore.

I believe July is 10 years for me as well. Was on the WOTC boards in 2001 before migrating over here.

Like if you had any alternative in your times...


Come Sept it will be 12 years for me.

Sept 11, 2005 was my first post, although I did not become a regular poster on any threads until much later.

Wow. Time really does fly when your having fun! :)


Tenebrist? Tenebralist? Tenebrant? Tenebrancer? Tenebrifist?

I was on the ENWorld forums until 4e came out. I'm not sure how long I've been on the PF forum. A few years but not as long as some of you old duffers.


First actual post was in August of 2007. So I'm a relative newcomer to many of you folks.

This was actually my first gaming message board I ever posted to. I did post a bit at EnWorld and WotC, but that was afterwards, and <100 posts on each.


9/26/05 was my first...


Ugh. I need this bus run to be over

I refuse to be old!

When I hit 40 I decided that was high enough, and started counting backwards. Next year I'll be nine. :-)

It always surprises me how old everyone else on the boards is: I only turned 17 just under three months ago. (Started posting in 2012, so I'm fairly young on that front, too.)

I don't think that angle has been suited yet but check the Submissions Avatar put together by Gobo Horde. It has all Submissions up to date to double check if someone submitted anything similar. ;-)

Yes. It really did. :/

(I hate math-ing. And counting backwards was just adding insult to injury)

I never did understand why D&D had THACO, but its sci-fi offshoot, Gamma World, had AC as we know it today? -_-

Weird. :P

Yep. I decided that 20 was my best year. So this year I celebrated my 31st - 20th birthday! :D

Yeah, THAC0 did kind of suck in retrospect. And AC being the lower the better ...

November 2006 was my first post, though I was lurking for at least a year before that (and yoinking people's ideas for the Shackled City game I was running).

Though I did then take that 4-5 year hiatus from the boards ...


I looked again, August 1, 2007 was my first post.

My third and fourth posts were on a DM Killboard thread. Brought back some memories of that game I was running back then ;-)

Patrick Curtin is heading to Paizo Con. He will be busy doing other things until Wednesday. I have only one thing to say about all of that.

I'm all alone!

Yesssss, Shackled City. I bought my copy at GenCon 2006 and ganked a truckload of stuff from these boards. Probably doubled the length of the native game using delvesdeep's materials alone!

Currently sitting in the airport too damn early in the morning. I thought they'd have early check in-I figured wrong.

So I got up early for no damn reason

Oh well, I'm here. That's something.


I'm impatient tho. I really want to get underway

Well, visualize it, plan, and make it happen.

My next big trip will be Central Europe in 2018. I need @10K for the trip I want, but I am already planning it. All the particulars aren't in place, or the funding, but the first step is believing it will happen.


I might make it happen in a year or two. Right now I am having serious economic issues that will probably be gone after this summer. But until now I couldn't even afford to go to the cinema or to buy a second pair of trousers >.<
