Works for me.

Mid-day works. I'm on MT (PST +1, EST -2) if you're trying to figure out what that means.

I'll also be home all day. Family stuff will take up a currently-unknown quantity of the day, but worse-case I stay up all night getting it done.

I'm still good for the 26-27th. After that, I work almost 40 hours M-W next week, then free 31st-3rd. After the 3rd, my availability improves considerably.

I'm crazy busy from now until Christmas. There's not really any good time since I'm working 60-hour weeks, then it's the holidays. If peep's cool with waiting until I have more time, then 26th and after works best for me. If waiting that long will delay too much, I'll just pull an all-nighter to...

As the afore-mentioned "hard-to-reach defending champion" and regular competitor for over a decade, a couple tips to latch onto the advice train: 11) Adventure quality trumps almost anything else. Amazing adventures packing middling ingredients will usually club middling adventures with...

Also, pg 49 of the rulebook: "Look over the character classes and choose one that interests you. To start with everyone chooses a different class; there aren’t two wizards. If two people want the same class, talk it over like adults and compromise."

Blades in the Dark: Take harm, write in a brief narrative description of what happened like "Gut Shot" or "Acid Burns" or "Exhausted." When you heal, the damage shifts "up" to lower penalty slots with the lightest damage clearing completely. Looking at the sheet, you don't just see 5/48...

Having run several DW campaigns, convention one shots, and online arcs in the decadish since it came out, plus having watched every game Adam Koebel (the lead designer) has run along all of his Office Hours YouTube videos, and also most of the games he has run online I feel fairly confident...

Hello everyone, I'm planning on starting a Blades in the Dark campaign and looking for players. Basics: Playing on Roll20, probably once or twice a month on Sundays, noon-4pm or so. Vaguely "Western Marches" style: big pool of players all part of the same gang who jump in to do a Heist, don't...

Only noticed this 7 years later, but glad you enjoyed it! I ran pretty brutal games back then and we definitely suffered from "player churn" as the PCs died in combat. Also, the archer player really wanted to play a solo game and often made choices that seemed optimal for him even if it meant...

Finally, a patch of post-Thanksgiving free time! Man, it's been a long time since I won one of these. According to my notes, this is the 7th tournament I've competed in in the last 11-odd years, between missing a few and judging a couple. For Rune's final entry, I started off a bit confused...

Whew, doesn't get any closer than that Rune! Made for a tense wait. Between a pile of pre-vacation work to get done and two Thanksgivings tomorrow, I'll aim for getting my post-tournament musings up this weekend.

Done and posted. Making myself not read it again as I always find ten more things I want to correct/reword/tinker with now that it's too late. Go Rune go!

The 9th Pace A fantasy adventure Sailing across the ocean in search of riches, explorers found Karnia: a continent ringed by reefs and mountains, as remote as it is desolate. In spite of distance and danger, an infestation of penal colonies, struggling settlements, and rough towns dedicated to...

Off we go. Catch ya on the flip side Rune; looking forward to reading your adventure!

Works for me.

Yes. Tuesday morning would be my preference since a Tuesday night start is essentially equivalent to Wednesday morning start for me, but I could still make it work.

Monday mornings make the best start times for me (9am ET to be highly specific). I could do tomorrow morning if Monday isn't feasible, but it would hard-cap the hours I have to work on it pretty severely.
