Slot 2 game 1

I would like to join your group for this seesion if you still have openings at the time of this post, I know the date for character approval is well past the deadline. If you would like I would be happy to play any pre gen characters you have, or I can generate my own if you dont have time. If this game is full up then I would like to play in the second half in any D&D setting.
Thanks

I took on way too many things this month, so unfortunately finishing up the adventure I agreed to run took a back seat.

I won't be able to run A Band Reunion on Saturday, but if my players would still like me to run something, I can run a canned adventure.

I'm posting this here for Mark to update the thread, but I'm also emailing this to my players.

Sorry about dropping the ball.

Hope Sebastian doesn't kill me...

Mark, I'd like to switch from the Dire Straits game to the CoCd20 Paper Chase game.

I know, I'm being an a$$.

I guess my original interest was in trying M&M, and since that's not going to happen, I'd prefer to switch. I already own CoCd20, and would love to actually play it.

Thanks!

Sorry, Sebastian.

Shoot! Call of Cthulhu's back up? Sorry to the morning Star Wars crew, but I think I'd like to play Call of Cthulhu, please. It was my first choice.

To pbartender/Jack Hagg: you can keep the character I generated for use in the game as an NPC or a PC.

Things change

This is what it sounds like when I drop the ball. Sorry.

I've had some stuff come up this weekend, so I won't be able to make the gameday. Sucky, I know, and I'm sorry to Halma and all the others, but a man's gotta keep his priorities. Hope you're able to fill the slot.

Game slots currently Closed

Currently I have all my slots filled, even with Shadoth leaving I have my 6 slots filled to the brim.

Currently the Characters are taken by:

Knowthetoe: Dwarven Expert (2nd)
DocMoriartty: Reanaarian Infiltrator
Thalmin: Halfling (Amberhair) Cleric
FCWesel: Elven Wizard
Sebastian: Dejy Ranger
Paul Mandigo: Dejy Shaman

Thanks for all of your interest in my game. It is really appreciated. I hope you all have a good time.


I would like to close my Game to the general public, unless someone leaves, then we can fill it in as needed.


Thanks,

Halma

Updated. After the changes have been made regarding this post, NO MORE SWITCHING, please. Thanks.

No problems, just too busy with work, life, etc. I'll bake a batch of cat crap brownies and think of you all having fun this weekend!

heh heh You and your brownies... You'll be missed.

When should we expect to get emails back from you saying that characters are approved for the Grand Melee? Its only a few days now and we are rather down to the wire for corrections if there is something about a character that you do not like.

Corrections will be dealt with that morning. It's not a matter of "like" merely a matter of having the bulk of it done in time (so as not to take an hour to generate characters on site) and sticking to the outlined rules (which I am sure most of you have).

I assume that you mean my second slot D&D game? Please email a 7th level character built using the CORE RULES (PH, MM, DMG only) right away to me at mark@creativemountaingames.com and I'm sure that will work out.

Got it. Thanks.

I'm sure you'll be able to come up with something, so I'll just leave the schedule as is for now and catch you on the phone.

Sorry, Sebastian.

Obviously I can't force you (or anyone) to play in a game that you don't wish to play, and I understand that if a game isn't using the rules that you had signed up to use, then you have a right to switch, so I will switch you over.

Shoot! Call of Cthulhu's back up? Sorry to the morning Star Wars crew, but I think I'd like to play Call of Cthulhu, please. It was my first choice.

Wowser. The switching is going to make some games difficult for the DMs to have ready. I'm going to make a call right here that there should be NO MORE SWITCHING from game to game unless a game disappears completely from a schedule, please. I'm also going to ask that the DMs with low player counts stick with their commitments, have some pre-gen chars ready for Saturday (to cover any seats not prereged) and we'll sort out how to deal with this on Saturday morning. Thanks.

Just to let you know, I do not think that is going to work very well. Are you going to walk over to a private area with each person so that you can tell them what they need to correct?

Otherwise you are going to cause problems if you talk about a member of the melee in front of everyone else there. Best odds for winning I think will go to the person who is best able to conceal what his character does. Lose a few tricks to open talk before the game and it could change things drastically.

But if that is how you want to work it then that is fine with me. Next time just let us know in advance that you are going to be handling it this way.

Do you think that there is any possible chance that I might be able to run it to your satisfaction? Even so, please tell me exactly how you would run it so that I might be enlightned, Tim. That would be most helpful, I am sure.
