[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 7950234, member: 59816"] 1) Yes! 1986! I met up with the host of a BBS (300 baud dial-up modems!) and he ran me through the first bit of Tomb of Horrors in 1e (though I only learned that it was ToH more recently - throughout 2e and 3.x, I only played homebrew settings. I never played the classics (or any pre-written modules) until 4e. I had so many flashbacks when I first played ToH. "Hey! I played this 20-whatever years ago in my first time playing!" 2) It's a very fun setting, but yes, I've played a few editions and all of them don't interest me from a mechanical standpoint. Fun to play, though. 3) We're all gonna have to learn some new tricks so we can keep playing! Thanks! Yes, I seem to be on the mend. Just a little fatigue. Even my cough is tolerable! 1) Thanks. This is what I understood, but still, Dave had me worried for a minute. (Don't worry about it, Dave! You're just trying to help.) 2) Yeah. It'd be really helpful to have tests for everyone, but that's one of the things about a Pandemic - the medical system gets overloaded. We all gotta do our part, including knowing when to stay out of the way. 3) I hope she'll be okay! 4) I'm sure that feels good. I look forward to getting back to work (3 days to go). Even with the store closed to the public, there's a lot I can do that I have been missing. It's been tough leaving it up to my employees to manage during a full-on crisis. They've done well, but there is a [I]lot[/I] more I would have done if I'd been there. But I had to look to my health, and keep people safe from me. 1) I can imagine. I've had good food there. Someday, I will again! 2) Interesting. I expect I may have done more online gaming if it weren't for the vast resource of available gamers I've had in my customers. Everyone I game with (and nearly all of my friends) started out as customers of my store. Some of them when they were just kids! (I still think of some of them as kids, even though they may be pushing 40. I was 19 when I started the store, and some of my friends were customers aged 10 or 12. So back then I was "grown" and they were "kids" and now we're nearly the same age!) 3) I'm a storyteller at heart. Everything I enjoy (comics, games, tv shows, etc) I do for the sake of the story.
