Just checking in to say that I've found the new thread.

By the way which one of you guys has been sticking pins in a voodoo doll of your likeable understanding and player friendly DM....I had another fender bender last night if you can belive it.......but thankfully only minor damage this time to my nieces car....I so hate rainy roads here in TULSA.........gotta love life though....
Wow, JA...talk about when it rains it pours. Glad you are alright, though. If there is anything I can do to help, let me know. You could always come move to beautiful Salt Lake City...of course, then you would have to contend with out winter snow.
I've not been in an accident for a long time, knock on wood. Well, other than driving my Durango into a fence pole and crinkling my fender last summer. But that was user error.

JA--So I guess you are no longer that niece's favorite uncle....
I almost got smashed on a busy Houston street this week myself. A woman in a beetle decided to change lanes without checking to see if it was clear. I just managed to switch to an empty lane before she hit me--never knew my reflexes would save me at my age....
On a gaming issue for discussion:
From time to time, my daughters write fan fiction on-line. It's usually Yu-gi-oh or Warriors (the cat books by Erin Hunter), vampire romance (teenagers!), etc. What surprised me was that they also participate in role-playing in the same worlds. It's FRP PBP with no random actions (no dice) and no moderators, so it's more like cooperative 1st-person fan fiction than FRP. There are fights and deaths, love and romance, pretty much everything (usually age-appropriate). The one problem is that without moderators, the stories are always driven by the whims of the most dominant obnoxious person posting. This has led one daughter to start reading posts on ENworld to see what our FRP is like. I'm not ready to let her post here yet, although she probably has a user name already. Does anyone else have any experience with this fan fiction RP?
No no way in heck will i end the Great North lol i will let other go before that one ...
Good to hear, though I must say that I really enjoy your Southern Operatives game as well. If you decide to let one go, go with Divine Avengers, as it is still in its infancy!

I have no intention of ending any of the games....unless something reallly dire happens..it was just a comment paying homage to those players in the Great North who have been around for almost two years now and who have been very gracious in my delay in their game while i got the others up and running..
Hello. I keep forgetting to check for this thread. Barely get time to post in the game threads.
Sorry to hear your misfortune continued.
Yes, I am here and have no intention of disappearing.

I tried re-subscription. I also tried deleting old subscriptions and THEN subscribing again. It didn't help. True, I tried it more then two weeks ago...

Basically they are just extremely unreliable. They will work for a while and then mysteriously stop, and then work for a while and start again. I recommend not relying on them.

Lou, I think that your daughters would be impressed by enworld. What was their feedback?
The older girl does not like the randomness of the dice-rolling. She wants more control over her storyline. The younger girl thinks ENworld is cool! I'm just not ready for her to be on here.
Something weird must have happened, because this morning I just received about 9 email updates from enWorld going back to May 15th. I see the anouncement for this new OOC thread and come to find out that it has been here all that time and I did not know it! ah well. I'm switched over now.
Re: traffic wierdness - I have not had a traffic ticket in the last 15 years. Except for one brief period in 2000 when I got three tickets within a span of a few months. All my fault, but still wierd. Of course I'd rather have tickets than accidents! I hope you are past it all now.
Actually I have been accident free for three weeks now (knocking on the nearest piece of wood which just happens to be Scotley's Head)
And to the hopeful delight of all i have spent time rereading the posts and game information in order to get back on track and get the games advancing like they use to......and have had one or two clever ideas for each campaign......just dont know when i will start tormenting you with them....
The only problem is that work is good and my personal failing of prusing money is getting in the way of my dming.....so for the next few weeks the best time for a quick response will be over the weekend....as I have refused to work them unless some sweet old lady wishes to move her money into one of our annuties....the the ugly greedy monster once again rears it's head.
