Saying Hi!

#1 Post by BackworldTraveller »

Apparently, it is customary to say a few words so you know who I am...

...Well I've been gaming (mostly Traveller) since the 1970s, I run a PBP game based in 1138 in Million and am in others in the Marches. I've spent the Covid period helping out on the Traveller Wiki and have been told that this is a good board to play on.

I'm based in the UK in Essex and currently have more time than I've had in ages so I'm filling it with Family, Games and Making stuff up for Traveller.

Glad you are in BT!
Rarely get PMs asking me to approve a new member. I’ve definitely never received more than one before! Good to see you’ve already got friends (and a game) already. :)
It really is a great place to hang out and game, enjoy!
Be well,
—Ron—

Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

And a hearty welcome to you too Ismeno!
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.
