Welcome, MikeD!

Will assume you know your way around the forum, but feel free to ask if you have any questions!

I also assume you caught that episode of Nova that talked about the forging of the viking swords and how they were possibly the best swords ever made? If not, you should definitely look it up. Lots of interesting info there.

Oh, will also attempt to refrain from using any BB lyrics in your presence. Apologies in advance if I slip; just know I'll blame it on you when it happens, umkay?

Get settled in and have fun! Welcome to the Unseen Servant!

Cheers,

Al

Thanks for the welcome Al.

I have seen the viking sword episode and it was pretty cool.

No worries about BB lyrics. :)

Best Regards,
Mike D.

Welcome MikeD!
Hope you enjoy your stay!

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.

Welcome, MikeD. Al already beat me to the Beastie Boys joke, so I'm spent. ;)

Seriously, though, it's always good to have more people interested in running games, so welcome indeed.

Privileges of the mighty. Must be nice. ;)

I was totally going to type out some lyrics here (maybe some Paul Revere), or post a link to a YouTube video, but didn't want to completely derail the thread. Though, I think you and I are well along that path. :D

It's just where we post names when we're pretty sure they aren't spam bastards. I try to make them fun...
