[QUOTE="Mark, post: 331487, member: 5"] It appears I didn't put together that the Emails I had received corresponded with the posts on the board. No problem. I just didn't want anyone to lose their chance to run or play. ;) For anyone else, post to the board, rather than Email me because it makes it much easier for me to keep things straight. As to the proxy sign ups, I don't like to do that without them actually posting to the board for several reasons. It isn't really fair to regular posters if any seats are taken by those who have friend's throw a coat over the chair. Since it is free to all who wish to join in the fun, the only commitment is by posting. So if someone doesn't post, themselves, then when they don't show up and a DM has en empty chair, it looks bad to those who might have wanted to take that seat but didn't because of the reservation by another. Lastly, while not strictly an EN Boards thing, it does require a certain community spirit for the day to be organized, and posting to the thread demonsrates that community spirit. I hope everyone understands. :) Wulf - Yet another product out before the Gameday?!?! You, sir, are a machine! :D Dinkeldog - Got you in for Kid Charlemagne's game. Not your fault, since I was involved in it too, but maybe we shouldn't being poking the bear (PC and KidCthuluhu) about making that long trip from Boston.
