OOC III

[Storm11]

Hope it sorts itself out soon and things are ok. No rush here from me sir, hope you are doing ok

[tkrexx]

RL gotta come first, Brother. We'll still be here.

[Zhym]

No worries. Angus can continue to cool his heels.

Whether those around him can stand it is another matter.

[Zorroroaster]

No problem, AB. We'll be here!

[Zhym]

Hyde's face contorts even more horribly than it did at the smoke. By all the Gods that are and those that should be, Angus, wash those feet, hah? He squats next to the Ranger and shakes his head. You and me, we be one with this idea about the Sambords, yeahh. Them and Alleborg ought know the only way to beat back them Orcs is to unite. Maybe we ought try to get them Hobbits in on the deal too, hah? They ain't too far from the safe zone, no, and they already been set upon by them Goblins, I think maybe they be ready to make a bargain with Alleborg, hah?

Clarification time: I thought the hobbits were in the safe zone. Am I wrong?

[onlyme]

Hey folks - this game is going to slow down over the next few days. Behind on things in RL and trying to catch up.

Obviously, no worries.

It'll just give the delegates more time to finish their business

Yes, and their Bounders patrol the southwest corner of the save zone perimeter.

That doesn't mean you couldn't rouse some support from their community with your efforts, Alebelly willing.

[enn.in.me]

If there all as much trouble as Hellebore...

That's right. They live in their own swampy enclave within the safe zone.

[Marullus]

Just the swamp-livin' hillbillies. We tried to differentiate her family from the respectable Shire folk in their first introduction.

[tkrexx]

My bust!

[AleBelly]

Getting things in order. I imagine things will be slow over the 4th, but my goal is to have partisan ready to go soon after.

Over the next few days, please let me know what your PC's biggest fear is...and reply in your private forum.

Thanks.

[Zhym]

Now that's not an ominous question. :p

"I'm gonna have to say fear of obscene wealth, Bob."

[Marullus]

Does fear of a GM asking that question count?

[AleBelly]

Did he punch anyone in the eye though?

1st ball game! Awesome job, Dad!

No, no eye punches!

[Zorroroaster]

First time for everything.

Heeeeyyy....Badda badda badda badda saa-wing badda he can't hit, he can't hit, he can't hit, he can't hit, he can't hit saa-wing badda...

Forgot to do that one...

From now on, we'll consider the Sambord fort to be a "safe" place. Which means that xp will be awarded from an adventure will be meted out when you reach it. It also means that new forays will be started from these places. So if some of you want to head to no-go, please state so in the Chapter 10 thread.

So far:

Angus
Arnulf
Yenny

Speaking of that: did we manage any XP from our farcical handling of the escort mission?

I know it'd have to be RP XP or something like that, since we neither killed anything nor found treasure. But, hey, maybe it'd be a squirrel's worth of XP.

[AleBelly]

Sorry, no xp from the escort. It was entertaining, though! Most of the xp RP is given out periodically - after 500 posts (but no more often than once a month).

[Storm11]

The good news is you didn't lose any
