Quite a first post!
Welcome Shadow Shack. :)
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.

Once you have sufficient interest and are ready to get started, post in the forum Admin Requests...
Question --- how much "interest" is considered "sufficient interest"? I.e. how many responses are needed to facilitate creating the forum/game? I ask as I'm looking for up to six players and I'm starting to get hits on the "Looking for Players" thread.

There is no hard and fast rule about what is considered sufficient interest.

It's based on how many players you're looking for and how many you're willing to start a game with. You may want five, find three and feel that you will get the other two soon, than you can start your game with three.

If you want one player for you game and you find him or her, than you've got sufficient interest.

Cool, I have four so far...plenty enough to get started. Hopefully/maybe I can get two more during set-up and pre-game role play but I can certainly work with four.

A new forum -- Tales of the Falcon (SF: KH) -- has been set up for your campaign.  You have been set as the moderator for your forum, and you should also be able to make 'sticky' posts.  To add users to your group so that they can post in your forum, follow the instructions outlined here: How to add players to your campaign.

Please consult the 'How to make and find your campaign ID' if you're unfamiliar with the Unseen Servant dice roller.


Feel free to reply if you have any questions or issues and an admin will be able to assist.

Good luck with your campaign, and have fun!



Thanks,
Dave

I got the other parts started but I'm not getting anywhere with this part. All I get is a register/log in page and it won't let me log in.

Did you create a profile at the dice roller? It is a different user system and does not use the same user and password system

I'm sad to say that I do believe it is time to pull the plug on this one. Out of four players in a two month span, two completed character generation and the pre-game play is less active than games I hosted back in the day that lasted over a year. Thanks for the assistance in getting it established, I'll still hang around and see if any other games here tickle my fancy.

Sorry, man.

I'll go ahead and archive this one, but know that it can be restored at any time.

Thanks for all the help. I'll be around, like a donut. 8-)
