You know...I kinda want to see what's behind the occult symbol door. Most likely, our horrible deaths, but, still...
On November 2nd I will 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.

Oh we’re definitely going in, this crew would have it no other way :D
I’m just hoping we go in carefully and under our own volition. ;)

That would be all sorts of awesome!
I remember when a buddy of mine did a group pic of the PCs once, so cool. But he could draw. :) I can't do stick figures... at least when compared to Order of the Stick. ;)

It's funny that the description of that room both brings up a dread of going in, with a dangerous curiosity... oh-so-dangerous...

Sorry wolfpack. It's been 4 days. Moving it along. :)

Also, I hope everyone is well, your hands are washed, and that you're keeping 6 feet away from strangers at all times. :)

Between the added free time from working at home, and these unprecedented events, I'm sorely tempted to start an Aftermath game, inspired by The Road and The Stand, where mankind is wiped out by the flu. Clearly, I need more grim horror in my hobby! :roll:

When we heard that NY suburb had been cordoned off by the National Guard, we began stockpiling supplies. :(

We have stoked up and i have a delivery of perishables coming today. my work has gone to 3 days from home 2 in the office.

We have both been sick for a week with shortness of breath, coughing, but no fever. I am down to just a sore throat and slight cough, my breathing has returned to normal think it is the flu, to get the corona virus on top of that would do us in for sure.

My daughter is off school for three weeks. she doesn't like it but understands we are not letting her go out or have any friends over during that time. Of course I think 3 weeks is when this thing will peak and they will extend it longer. we really need about 2 months to get over the hump

2 days a week in the office isn't good. With Skype et. al., you really should work from home! (I'm sure you already know this)

If I could I would, and hopefully my company will end up going that way. right now they are saying 2 days form office. My wife has 2 days next week traiing at the office. after that they are work form home for the next several weeks that could be extended if this thing gets worse, which it will. so she needs to make it through the 2 days next week and can then stay home

Yikes man, be careful! My daughters' schools are going to e-learning systems real soon. My wife is practicing her social distancing, but my job (who are too old school in many bad ways :) ) is still chugging along. Even though my position could work from home, 80% of the positions we have support folks with MH issues in the community, plus we have 4 group homes and the crisis center for the County -- so things that really can't close. But in NJ the virus has, thus far, only made it to Camden County (which is north of my county) and northwards. And my job is even further south, so I've got my fingers crossed... best I can do at this point. :(

Keep you and the fam safe wolfpack!
