Greetings and Salutations

#1 Post by GreyWolfVT »

Hello my name is Edward but please call me Ed. I'm 31 father of 2 and a fan/gamer that plays primarily AD&D 1E/2E/2.5E essentially anything older than 3rd edition is good by me. I'd tried OD&D a couple times and it was pretty fun but very much basic. I've only ever played Fallout pen & paper and battletech for other RPG games. I'm interested in playing and learning new games as well as playing the old school games I love as well as modules and settings I've never been in such as Ravenloft, Greyhawk, Planescape, Forgotten Realms, Dark Sun, Al-Qadim, Spelljammer, and some others. I've been playing 2nd edition since about 1992 not so much in person anymore as my friends don't have high interests in it much anymore. I do have a couple games I play on Google+ in roll20.net and using google hangouts. Other than that I've only played 2 play by post games and looking to get into one or two more.

Hey Ed!
Really glad you made it over from G+.
I'm sure you'll find a game. It's a fantastic group of guys here!
Be well,
--Ron--
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.

Someone does Dark Sun and I'm in! Psionics are just another form of magic. Easy peasey. :)
Oh, and welcome Ed! :)
Someone should start a new game for all these new visitors! Alathan?

Thank you all for the welcomes. Just because Psionics exist doesn't mean we have to play or fight them it all depends upon the DM. ;)

I'd have to say thank you to Stonjuz and Zhym for having me in one of their campaigns/games. I went from nothing to a dead game to now two active games. It is nice to be doing something :)

Hi Ed, and welcome. Hope you have a ton of fun here. I just joined my first PBP game and I'm really enjoying it.
I don't have a signature thingy.

I'm enjoying the two I am in on here and the one I am on over @ Google+ I find this is run a bit more smoothly here so far. Thanks for the welcome HereticalOne. 8-)

I know this is a tad off topic but anyone else play chess at www.chess.com? If so we should play sometime. :)

If I didn't have so much on my plate right now, work aside, I would have probably been interested in setting up an account. Right, just pray that you recieve an update your arc within a couple of days :lol:
