Sorry about the last few weeks. I've had some unexpected complications with my personal life come up. I don't forsee it lasting until next week, but, y'know, unforseen and all. I miss mah little clayface and his buddies. Sorry, all.

No prob. Last weeks episode saw Yez serving as the support pillar in an improvised shelter, trampling a few skeletons and ringing a bell.

Hi everyone. I'm afraid I'm going to have to miss the first session of the 4e game. I agreed to a birthday party several weeks ago, and only just found out that it is tomorrow, and not today, like I thought. It's my wife's birthday (not actually on her birthday, so that it can be a joint party with another person who has a birthday this week), so there's no weaseling out of it...
Sorry about that.

I'll be there tomorrow, but, next week I'll be away. Gonna be moving to my new apartment. I'm not 100% sure when I'll have internet access, so, after this week, I'll be pretty spotty for a bit.

BTW, since Merk's finishing up her thing, that means that I'm up to bat. I'll try to post a bit of an intro thread, but not right now since I'm up to my ears. But maybe tomorrow. Just to let you know though, I'm going to do another card game thing for chargen, so don't get too set on a particular character before we get started. Things are going to be a bit up in the air. I think everyone knows what I'm talking about, but, in case you don't. The card game works like this: I'll have a large number of cards set up. Each round, players choose one card. Something from that card - could be the flavour text, the picture, whatever, has to appear in your character's personality or background or goals. We'll be doing several rounds, and the last few rounds, we'll trade cards with each other, representing connections between the characters. I've done this before and I really liked the outcome, so, I'd like to do it again. Makes for a more coherent group. Also, while I know that some of you like to go the comic relief route *cough*Awayfarer*cough , I'm thinking that a bit more straight might be in order. While heavy metal viking with a flamethrower is certainly unique and interesting, it might not fit so well in this campaign. Just saying.

Not next week, but the week after that (April 12th) my work is doing a summit and I will probably not get home until 9 or later all week. I probably won't be in the mood to join the session even if I get in before it's over. Hopefully my stint at DMing will be done by then so we won't have to cancel the session entirely.

Sorry guys, just got moved to the new apartment. No internet until at least Tuesday. Merk, I know I just emailed you, but, I found an extra ten minutes to post this, so you don't have to. I'll be on things after Tuesday (or perhaps a bit later) April 6th. If Merk's not going to play the 12th, perhaps we'll get things rolling the week after that. Dunno. We'll talk later. Away - Yeah, its all good.

Hey guys. I'm in the middle of coming down with a flu all of a sudden. Since I'm going to have to teach Tuesday morning, I think I should get to bed early on Monday to try to sleep off the sick. I'm thinking that unless I get better by tomorrow, I won't be able to make the game.
Sorry about that. Feel free to go on without me, assuming that there are enough players to play.

Hmm, if Hussar and LonelyT both can't make today's game I'm tempted to just cancel it. We didn't want to finish the campaign last week with one player missing, so having two players missing is even worse.
Unfortunately I won't be able to make the game next week, which means if we cancel the game tonight then we won't play the last session of this mini-campaign until April 19th.
I guess we'll wait and see if LonelyT feels well enough to play tonight or not and go from there.

Yeah. I'm thinking no. I got worse overnight. I will probably be going to bed at 9:00 today, and try to sleep this off before tomorrow. Again, sorry about that.

Even if Hussar shows up tonight I'd feel bad if we delayed the previous session for Hussar but kept playing without LonelyT, so I think we're going to have to cancel the session for tonight. Plus, Away and I are pretty late sending out our invitations and I could use the time tonight to get cracking on those.
As a reminder, I won't be playing next week. I suggest Hussar starts up his campaign that session and does an intro or a character building session and then the week after that we can finish up my campaign (and go onto continue with Hussar's campaign if my part of the game doesn't take up the entire three hours).

Well, I'm back and fully interneted. Even got me a spiffy new connection. Schweet.
I'd pretty much want to have a full boat for the first session, since it's going to consist a lot of character and group building. Doing that without a player is a bit tricky.
We can let next week slide and then finish things up the week after that. Then I can get rolling. Gives me lots more time to get my crap together.

Just a heads up on what's going on in the Hussar household.
Work has become crazy busy. (Yay). This won't affect game time or anything like that (I've been very sure that Mrs. Hussar knows that my Tuesday time slot is NOT for classes) but I'm left with a bit less free time which means prep might suffer somewhat. OTOH, both Little Monster and Littler Monster have now started school, so that frees things up a bit. Things should settle down in a bit.
However, speaking of Little Monster, she unfortunately has had a pretty serious asthma attack and is going to be spending some time in the hospital. This has left me somewhat discombobulated, so, don't expect miracles. I'm pretty sure I can still play this week, but, I'll keep you posted.
Merk, how long do you think you need to finish things off? If you want the whole session, it's yours that's no problem. I can see chargen taking about an hour (hopefully) and I need to email a couple of people to let them know a tentative date.

I honestly do not know how long the last session will take. I'm still having a hard time estimating how long it'll take us to play out encounters. I would be extremely surprised if it took up more than the 3 hours we have, but I wouldn't be that surprised if it took just two hours. Or even just one hour if we're all on the ball and there are lots of crits.

Yeah, sorry, no game tonight. Away and I are busy planning our wedding, and I think Hussar had something to do today, too.

Oh, dude, totally sorry. I should have put an announcement up. Yeah, no game. We'll play next Monday/Tuesday.

Post by Merkuri on May 5, 2010 7:11:06 GMT -5
I mentioned this during the last game but I'll mention it here as well.
There's a small chance that Away and I might not be able to play next Monday. Our current plan is to be home on time to play, but I don't know if something will come up that might require us to stay in Connecticut longer than expected.

...I thought we weren't playing, due to the wedding celebration! Looks like I was the only one, though. Sorry, folks. I've read the first transcript, and I'll post my character in the Choices You Made thread in juuuuuuuuust a bit. Sorry for skippin' out, hopefully I'll get in smooth on Monday!
