Fuck, I'm traveling again tomorrow.  Seriously, who decided that Vreeg has to train people or teach seminars every fucking Thursday?>??

Good, because that absolves me of the responsibility of being the one who couldn't make it. :p

A potential new hire is giving a talk, and since our big academic conference is next week, we've also got some planning meetings for the volunteers (myself being one).

So don't sweat it.

LordVreeg

OK.
S-H let me know the type of character he wants to play, so we are going to work towards the 'skip ahead' method.

Okay, cool.

Moss still, I believe, had a little bit of a private session left to play. Do we want to finish that or just gloss it over? If it saves you some work, I'd be fine with glossing it over. I'll be free this weekend, but not next. If we do want to play it out, during the day on Saturday or Sunday would work best for me.

LordVreeg

 actually think we'll be able to finish it.

So next week is the International Conference on Language Documentation and Conservation, the world's premiere conference on endangered languages and what to do about them. Obviously, I won't be able to make the game, because I'll be off linguisticing.

LordVreeg

Sounds dirty.  I like that.

SH and I Have continued working on his concept.  Getting together an interesting character.

We are most certainly on for this Thursday.

We will be doing the time skip.
The downside is that we are missing the area where the cultists and Trine Vexchian are battling, where the cultists are growing, skipping the gear chamber and the railcar, and the ruins of Vericulum and the Trine Guldana area.  Not to mention the bridge of many corpses.

We will jump right to the Southern Fields area, and I will provide some of what was seen and done.  The advantage is that we can work back to town within a session that way.

Now, SH is busy making a character.  So I was working on a few ideas, based on some reading lately.  Since we have 3 main PCs, I want all the the spotlight time on the PCs, so this means removing the minions.  Having them was very OSR, but especially with inconsistent players, hard when they need to do things and slows everything down.

So this is also the time to get new blood in, since we are back in town.

I may be a little late getting to the game. The other department I'm sort of a part of is having a hiring talk, and they asked for my opinion on the prospective hires. It gets out more or less exactly when the game should start.

LordVreeg

well, we have things to do.

Llum, will you be on?
S-H?

We aslo still have to work out some stull with S-H's character.  Actually a lot of work to do.

I will be on both tonight and tomorrow...doing analysis of staff and trending reports, but GuildSchool is a welcome distraction.

Am excited for tonight's game.
sort of a free-float back into town, starting in the southern fields.
And SH's character is coming along nicely.

the only snag is that the Wife's Aunt just ended up in the ICU, so that may preclude the game.  Stay Tuned.

yEAH.
We have a family member coming down with a bad case of 'Death'.
[spoiler]looks like stage 4 cancer, lungs not working, etc.
It is the Wife's Auntie, who helped raise her. 
Weird, since she is actually my age.[/spoiler]

Might not be on tonight, except sporadically.  Sorry team.
