OOC banter and strategy thread

#1 Post by ToniXX »

Use this thread to make OOC announcements (if you'll be gone for an extended time), talk strategy, or ask me questions.

Yes I have a question: why are we setting a "watch" while we're on board a ship?

I'm going to answer as if this were asked of the captain:

Audion replies: These waters are rife with fell beasts large and small. The waters are shallow and currents slow. I usually make the crossing south unscathed, but one never knows.

Do we still have all the players listed in the character thread? It feels as though some folks dropped. If we do have the same number, I propose the following watch order:

1)Crowcenty and Harick (magic-user and cleric)
2)Elrohir and Styrk (elf and fighter)
3)Krank and Cmo (Dwarf and halfling)
4)Beya and Lenore (magic-user and fighter)

I put the two PCs with infravision in the middle, when it is darkest. While Elrohir technically needs 8 hrs of sleep to memorize spells like the other spellcasters, there is no reason to re-memorize spells that haven't been cast. So, until he needs to relearn spells, I think his infravision is too valuable an asset to leave unused.

Let's see if we can't get a quick up or down vote on this to move things along. Remember, if you don't agree with the order for some reason, please offer an alternative.

I have no problem with the proposed order. (Except for the fact that Lenore said she was going to stand watch first. ;))

Looks like we have a majority. Toni, do you want to set up a "Standards" thread, or something along those lines, so we can archive standard operating procedures?

I'm ok with it too. Only suggestion might be swapping Elohir with someone from the third shift . Keeps the infravision going while putting a spellcaster in each shift too.

Does anyone know what's happening with this game?
Are we on hold or something?

Sorry I've been slammed. Between work and personal stuff and my car crapping out. I'll update us this evening.

Hey guys, I'm going to bail. Nothing personal, Toni, I just need a faster paced game to hold my interest. Good luck, and puppet Crowcenty as needed.

Hey guys, I'm going to step away from the game. I have limited leisure time and I'm going to dedicate what i have to running my own game. It's been fun. Thanks and I hope you guys have fun!
