    Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath!!!!

    The other day while installing some computer equipment, I strained my neck and mentioned to the user how old I felt. She said, "Yeah, I feel like I'm 30." After informing her I'm 32, I witnessed the biggest bit of back-peddling I ever did see. :) I'll have an extra battlemat if you need it...

    Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath!!!!

    Trev - Do you have enough Helper Monkeys for all the people running games at the Gamesday? Shadow_Chicago-Gamer - Yup, the day is here already! Get that character to Jalea or he may borrow one of Trev's monkey generated characters! And, it's never too late to sign up for Painfully's game...

    Re: Chicago Gameday - June 21st - One more week! Trev - as long as you accept Mark's reply with a stiff upper lip, I'll take you out of the game :) Later, Matt

    Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath!!!!

    In one week, we're gaming again. I'm looking forward to playing a Viking Druid (I've never played a druid) and really looking forward to running Synnibarr. Maybe it's some of that hostage sympathy syndrome (or whatever it's called), but the more I work with the game, the more I like it...

    Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath!!!!

    I'm lucky enough to be playing in a nigh-weekly Buffy game, so I get a pretty good regular gaming fix. These Gamedays, however, are something special to me. They're a great chance to catch up with people, try out something new or run that game you've always been dying to, and have an excuse to...

    Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath!!!!

    Man, getting to see the latest in RPG design is sure going to distract me from my Synnibarr running. Do you all think I have enough time to work up a d20 conversion of Synnibarr? :) Later, Matt

    Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath!!!!

    painfully - I listed your game, so let's see if we can some players in those seats! As thalmin mentioned, we're going to kind of keep the Private Room open. It's kind of become the "Chat Room" for these website Gamedays. ejja_1 - What goes on in the Private Room during the Gamedays? Mostly I...

    Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath!!!!

    The paranoid part of me just knows thalmin is going to have that 3.5 PHB there just to ruin my plans to wait until the 2nd printing of the books. Thalmin, you will get my money either way! :)

    I think we knew going in that this one would be smaller than most. Like you, though, I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone again. Later, Matt

    Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath!!!!

    Can you all believe that we are less than two weeks away from the Gameday? I have been so buried in Synnibarr, I think that I have lost the capacity for meaningful human interaction. Well, with the number of people who have had to understandibly drop out, I'm thinking of re-christianing the...

    Sithramir - Sorry you can't make it for the game. Do try to stop on by, say hello, and check out the store if you get the chance. Thanks, Matt

    Re: Sorry Willaim - I am sorry to hear about what's going on, but don't be sorry about cancelling. Life is life and games are games. I hope things start looking up for you soon. You will be missed at this Gameday and you know all of us are here whenever you need us. Thanks, Matt

    Chicago Gameday - The Aftermath!!!!

    Don't worry - most people either haven't heard of it other than it's rep of "worst RPG ever" or whatever. Even less actually have a copy of the game. Anyway, to ensure my players are getting the full Synnibarr effect, character creation using its fully random system will be part of the game...

    Looking for new fantasy RPG - story & roleplay oriented !

    If you really have your heart set on trying something other than D&D for a bit, then do try Gygax's Lejendary Adventures. Only one book, the Lejendary Rules for All Players, is truly necessary for play. There are two other "rule" books, and the rest are modules and a world overview. The...
