Table Chatter

I'm starting to think we should get back on track, head up to the town, and track down some goblin raiding parties. We can only do so much and I'm not really sure where to go with the wf issue at this point, anyway..

I think you are probably right about that - I think the problem with the goblins is more pressing and as for the problem with the warforged, I don't see a clear course of action and I think the operation is on a scale beyond what we are currently equipped to deal with.

Llama? Monkey? What do you guys think?

Annihilating goblin-folk suits me just fine.

Just so you all know - I'm not trying to lead you all down a certain path. You can feel free to explore any direction you like On the other hand, the purpose of a short-term mystery in DnD is to add to the fun, not to stump the players into submission. Therefore, I generally will start dropping a few hints here and there so that the players' path is based on preference rather than just on path-of-least-resistance.

I think the problem ends up being one of time, more than anything.

In PbP, it takes months to go through what would be done in one night of table top gaming. Throw in everything else that happens to us in RL between entries, and it's sometimes hard to keep everything straight as to what is going on and who is doing what.

At least that's what I think the challenge is...

Yes, another reason I don't feel bad about summing up evidence or giving hints

I thought you'd be all about figuring out the warforged business because you're buds with the innkeeper and maybe looked like you had a thing for that WF waitress.

Could have just been me, though.

Sorry guys, my internet has been down a couple days...going to get caught up presently

no worries, glad you made it back online

(Sorry about the delay; work (my normal post time) has been hectic this last week.)

Wow, I got logged out and we moved and I never logged back in. Is anyone still here? [hopes]

I've been checking every couple of days to see if anything's new. So, yeah, still around!

Cool! I will do an update in the main action thread tomorrow

And, I suck.. bah! Updating now.

On the plus side, my son went to prom, and my daughter turned 11!

Can everyone who is still interested in participating here chime in?

Cole?
Llama?
Monkey?

I'm thinking you stopped back at the inn and brought your horses out here, but I'm not sure. I'll look back through in the morning and see for sure

Chiming in! Had also been checking every week or so...but I'm here and ready!

The main action thread has been divided, with the most recent 8 or so pages of the thread used to make a new thread. The odd thing is, I didn't do it. Not sure what's up.

At any rate, you'll need to subscribe separately to the new thread to be alerted to updates.

That is odd. I just posted a few minutes ago, and it was one large thread at that point.

I didn't split it - honest!

Llama broke the forum!

Weird. From what I can tell, it set it up so the new thread is my "watched" thread and not the old one!

Mike, do we want to PM Cole and see if he's still around and even maybe check and see if GhostOfMarx is still interested in joining us?

I'll be playing in an IM chat game with Cole tonight, so I'll ask him. My only guess about the thread is that someone from forum motion did it or that it happened automatically somehow, probably to help out their database somehow.. I guess.. I really don't know diddly about the guts of websites. Makes me nervous, nonetheless :/

On a related note, if any of you know how to backup a website, I'd be interested in doing that. It'd have to be some sort of free option, of course, due to my current career as a churchmouse.

This is becoming a real issue. I've looked and looked through the admin settings and options and can't find any way to fix it.
