Clutches of Evil - OOC Thread

[unleashed]

Everything alright, unleashed? Haven't seen you around for a bit ... just hoping you're alright.

Yeah, I'm fine, though it seems some, if not all, my ISPs IP addresses are being blocked by the ENWorld host. So I've had to come on via my ISPs proxy server, which has a different IP range.

To cut a long story short. I lost access in the middle of posting on the 24th and thought ENWorld was down. Sent a few people emails to see if it was down, which it obviously wasn't. Then sent my ISP a query a to why I lost access, and that's where I'm at now..trying to resolve the problem. :\

Well, thanks for the update. Honestly, you've been such a good solid player in this game up till now that being upset about an absence didn't even cross my mind. My first thought was to hope you were okay.

I do hope that you resolve your ISP address issues. Also - if you ever use AIM, or a program that recognizes AIM, you should be able to send me an E-mail to my registered address here at ENWorld and I'll send you my screen name. I actually try to avoid putting mine on open boards like this, although I'm not secrative about it. I offer in case something like this happens again. It might give you anotehr person you can try and ask if ENWorld is having issues. Let me know if you send an E-mail to that account, though. It is not my regular account so I don't check it frequently.

Wanted to let you know I've got a friend in from out of town this weekend, so I probably won't have time to post. Feel free to NPC Byntrou if everyone else gets ready to enter the mines.

I've still got to shop but am happy to sacrifice the shop to speed things up. I haven't got time to shop right now, and might not for the next couple of days.

Cheers

Daz

Thanks for the list, Unleashed. Haven't gone over it yet (i figured I'd wait for all three and do it at once) but I don't see any problems from a quick glance.

Daz, thanks for the note. Take a few days. The game thread won't advance to the point that you can reverse engineer yourlist based on what you might need by that point anywyay. Not that I'd think you would do it anyway. So I'm not worried in the slightest.

Rather than moving the party forward automatically, I am going to hold back for just a bit and let you all figure out order and this issue of whether or not you want to spend time with Byntrou looking for traps.

I'd rather hold up for a day than go forward under the wrong impression - especially since it seems like a trapfinding rogue is somewhat new water for jkason to play. I'd rather get it right the first time.

This'll also give Daz and jkason a bit of time to figure out if they want to buy anything from the general store.

 

[unleashed]

Well, I was hoping Byntrou would say something funny soon, but if not I would have had Keryth come up with something just to move us along.

Just for you all to know:

I will be able to post once per day will Wednesday and probably not more unless someone happens to be on at the same time I do ... and that'll be late each day (EST USA). I've not had a day off since Sept 26th and I'm likely to not get one either until Thursday at the earliest. The next three days I'll be putting in triple shifts.

Didn't want any of you to think I was ignoring the game or losing interest. Just really busy. After Thursday I will return to normal.
