OOC I

[dmw71]

I am performing PC reviews now and will provide any feedback in your private 'ooc' threads.

All reviews are in, and there's nothing overly significant required from anyone. Since my review wasn't super thorough, additional notes may spring up during the game but I don't foresee there being any problems.

Looking forward to getting this party started tonight.

Yee-ha!

[OGRE MAGE]

I'll get the popcorn ready.

It is not critical to the adventure that player's actually learn their new roles; simply being assigned to an existing crew worker will be enough for purposes of the game.

That said, if a player is interested in role-playing their service time a bit more, you're more than welcome to do so. I forgot to create corresponding "action" threads in your private forums, but will remedy that now. If you are interested in role-playing a bit of your "training," feel free to let me know in this new private topics.

Sorry if this is covered in the House Rules somewhere, but do we post our rolls in public or in our private fora?

I'm also having trouble remembering myself, I checked the house rules thread but didn't find any mention but I could just be blind.

I'm not finding mention of it, either.

Well, you definitely need to post the actual action taken in the public forum. As for your rolls, they can be posted in either the public or the private forum (if it's not posted publicly, I'll know where to look). If you do post publicly, you can simply post the link, or you can hide them in the

tag.


Player's choice.

I added a 'Where to Post?' section in the 'Player's Rolls' house rule.

I also made a bit of a revision to the following house rule: 'Maps and Character Positioning', where I simply added a bit more detail to the 'positioning' rule.

Note, if no map is provided (e.g. the sea snake encounter aboard the ship, for instance), this exact positioning requirement does not apply.

Good one Dave!

I totally fell for it.

Just being a good little soldier I guess.

[dmw71]

I felt cheap doing it, but wanted something "exciting" to happen on your trip.

The real excitement will start soon.

I figured it was a warmup to see if we could use our to-hit macros correctly.

Well, I would be lying if I said I wasn't interested in seeing how the macros worked.

(Warning: It should probably go without saying, given who it is, but there is language in the below clip... )
"Snakes on a Boat," starring Samuel L. Jackson.

Have you seen the edited-for-TV version? It is high-freaking-larious.

"Monkey fighting," and "Monday-to-Friday." Ha!

Now that is awesome.

Company picnic today (in crappy weather). I was hoping to have the update ready beforehand (I suppose there's a chance I still might), but it looks like it won't be until later tonight.

Sorry, guys.

[dmw71]

(I suppose there's a chance I still might)

Was able to get it in before needing to leave (with a few minutes to spare).

[dmw71]

Next update coming tomorrow, Monday.

Did Pendleton get any information from the Captain about libraries or the Cyphergate?

I didn't have an inn prepared, and I focused so much of my efforts on creating the 'Captain's Chambers' that I simply forgot.

My mistake.

Those are precisely the types of questions that should come out of this opening scenario, so I will definitely address them (and any new questions) in my next update.
