My question is this: If normal Hookhill is back, do we leave (if we are able)? Because if we plan to stay and see this through, I don't see any real upside to checking outside, but I'd welcome thoughts from everyone else.
Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.

Ha. No such luck. I was just respecting Scott's perspective:

I thought this campaign was the longest TPK in gaming history. :SAN:

Seven and a half years and counting. :shock: :D
Yeah, but it is much shorter when you break it down by the times we've been TPKed already.

Makes sense to check out the rest of the house while we’re here, and hale.

I think it would waste our time to re-check on Hookhill. As I read the clues we've gotten, The Mansion isn't going to contact "reality" for 5 days. Aside from this, I'm pretty sure we've got a job to finish.

Urdur will help the hippy, as long as he promises to get a real job and cut his damn hair.

Ingrid can cast Create Food and Water, but won't do so today since food is pretty well settled. Maybe tomorrow.

Hey everyone,

Travelling for work this week, so will pause the game til I return.

OM and Scott, feel free to post for this round, of course.

Hey everyone,

I'm back. New DM post should be up tomorrow.

Jemmus, you accidentally double posted. I'll go with your first post since die rolls were involved with it.
I'll safely park your second post here to avoid confusion: :)

I just hope it's actually a game- usually, the score is so one-sided, it's more like a practice scrimmage for the winning team.

Eagles. We live not far outside of the city. Nearer to valley forge. We’re on vacation so eyeing up where to check the game out. My wife is way more excited about it then I am :)
