I’m Back

#1 Post by grokkngrognard »

Hey guys. I had some severe mental issues that I couldn’t avoid anymore about a year ago. Now that I’ve got a clean bill of health, I’d like to restart somewhere, somehow here. Not sure if I want to play, run, or lurk.

Good to see you! Welcome back!
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 back! Glad to hear you are doing well. As Leitz said, I'd recommend you start out as a player. Get your feet wet before jumping in the deep end and running a game. Lurk a bit, find something you are interested in and join a game.
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.
