Sorry to see you go Frank, but I understand that you're just not getting traction here. I'm sure some of it is my fault for not pushing the pace more. Again sorry to see you go.

Re: OOG: Game
The pace of the game has been tough, and for a long while I stuck it out thinking it didn't cost me much to keep following the game, but over the past few weeks it's become clear that simply following a game that has a different level of role playing involvement than is my gaming interest actually did have a significant cost on me.
Thanks

Tin roof RUSTED!
No, not really, but when Sally came a calling it did get wet and our roof, it did leak, and leak, and leak, and leak! We had 8 buckets/trashcans/pans scattered around the house catching water. Unlike a lot of folks around here, we're high enough not to get water coming in from below, but man did we get some coming in from above!
The generator did well, we had power the entire time. Internet didn't do so well, though. That came back late Sunday/Monday morning.
Cell phones stayed up and I was able to contact our Insurance Co. and they got an inspector out to us on Saturday. We also got a Roofing Contractor out for an inspection Saturday. He came back Sunday morning and tarped our roof. His company got us a quote for a new roof yesterday. Only one of the other roofers we called has even called back, and he said he'd be able to come out to do an inspection/tarping next week.
Well, the first guy's company is local, been here for 40 years, is located about 4 miles from our house and has good Yelp, Google, and Home Adviser reviews...and their quote was right where I thought it would be. So guess who's getting the business?
As for indoor damage...it was all ceiling, insulation in attic, and plasterwork. A leak over a bed got the mattress damp before we got that bed moved, but I think it's dried out okay and may not even have to be replaced.
Outside damage...was limited to down limbs from our pecan trees. Some were big limbs, but no trees came down. Thank goodness! We had 12 pecan trees on the property before Ivan in 2004, it took two. Dennis, in 2005, took one. Of the 9 left, I think might lose one or two from Sally eventually. One had the top twisted out but is standing firm from 20 feet to the ground. Another is leaning a little and one of its roots is exposed so it's going to be vulnerable to future high winds. Once things tame down here, I'll try to get an Arborist in to see if either can be saved.
I'll get the games going again, probably, tomorrow. Maybe today, depending on time.
IAC, thanks for the well wishes. I hope all of y'all are safe. I know JR and Terry are in the Houston area and Beta is somewhere around there right now. Stay safe guys!

Re: OOG: Game
Same-ish here. Rain, some of which leaked through the blue tarp on the roof because of the wind whipping it up and a tree that is leaning more than I like to see.

Admin Note: Eris hasn't logged into the site in almost a month. I'm going to go ahead and archive this game, but will happily restore it in the future.

Just got a request to join from Monolith in a private message. We will delay leaving Extolay for a while to give him/her a chance to create a character. While waiting the PC's will adjourn to a bar.
