I just now realized the latest update for this game (from me) is still saved as a draft.

I'm going to need to double-check its state before submitting it, and don't have time to do it tonight, but I should hopefully be able to carve out some time for this tomorrow. Maybe Wednesday, as tomorrow is a busy day at work for me.

I have a planned day off from work tomorrow, so today is going to be spent scrambling to make sure everything is in order.

The next update will likely be later tonight at the earliest, but most likely not until tomorrow or possibly this weekend.

Oof. I'm bad.

Work has been kicking my butt lately, and it's been a crazy week or so leading up to the girls resuming in-person schooling (today was their first day)... but, I will get caught up on all my games soon.

Eyo! Just joined the forums and subsequently this game and wanted to say hi. Will give some though to character and get started on creation in a bit. Looking forward to watching the virtual dice roll with you all!

Yes, welcome, torkill.

Of course, the introduction may not happen immediately.... just saying. ;)



Which also leads me to... I miiiiight be able to move this game again tomorrow, but most likely it will be sometime over the weekend (which lately has been translating into "early next week").

Welcome, Torkill!
Sometimes this summer I will most likely 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.

Just checking in to perform some admin tasks here in the forums and to also share that updating my games will be a bit delayed.
  1. Work is busy right now;
  2. I've been backing up a guy since last week Friday which has almost doubled what is required of me;
  3. A severed fiber cable left me without Internet access from roughly 11:30 am until almost 9:00 pm on Tuesday, causing me to basically fall a full day behind at work. It's not fun.

I'm struggling right now, at least until tomorrow when the guy I'm backing up returns, so there's a better-than-average chance my next update in any of my games won't be until then (Friday), or this weekend (which has been code for "early next week" of late).

No worries. Life is good at kicking all of our best laid plans to the curb. We've all been there.

Been there with the cut fiber line. Not much you can do.

No pressure on our end, Dave.

Actually, we had a family emergency this morning... so things have been pretty much chaotic.

Right now, I am focusing 100% on clearing out as much of my workload as possible, then see what time and focus I have left.

In fact, I literally just received an update from my wife and the situation is improving. Which is very good news!


Just know, my status is a bit in limbo right now.

Just checking in to share that things are slowly beginning to return to normal.

I have a lot of things (personal and work) that I need to get caught up on, but updating my games here (and just checking in on the admin-side of things here) definitely fall into that "personal" bucket.

I hope to get things moving here again either later today or tomorrow... but, we'll see.

Good to hear things may be clearing up.

Agreed.

Major respect for this:

I'm going to pose the question here as well.

I've started a second group of players in this game... which has quickly grown to four. If/when the two groups meet and decide to join forces, that would make a party of nine.

So, my question is:

Would you guys prefer to run as:
  1. Join forces into one larger group; or
  2. Run two different instances of the game keeping the two groups separate?



I personally prefer to keep the groups smaller and more manageable, but I will present the option of the larger group to everyone just in case.
