North Carolina Game Day VI: January 29

[Henry]

Not a problem. Perhaps someone of a more priestly bent would work for me. I would like to attempt to generate a character (book should be incomming shortly, thank you ebay) and it would help me get my feet wet system wise. If not, Sister Rebecca would fall most closely to what I was thinking.

That would be fine with me. In fact, if any of the other players would rather pre-gen on their own, let me know, and e-mail me the character ahead of time. My only requests would be:

--250,001 xp
--3d6 12 times, keep best 6 for ability scores
--no dual classed characters (multi-classed demi-humans would be fine, though)
--they have to fit the demi-human level limits in the original 1st edition PHB
--The character would have to fit the niche of the character it's replacing.
--I'll assign magic items to the PC, and e-mail the results.

That way, we don't have any characters that go too far afield of a well-balanced party spread. On the other hand, the pre-gens will be ready to go, too, so no one should feel pressured to know the system in and out. The other main reason for the pre-gens is to showcase the different classes - my experience has been even among those who used to play 1E, that there were often classes and races that went unnoticed and unappreciated.

Any way, Toras, let me know what you decide.

Toras, I've got books and knowledge of the system if you need to borrow.

As a teaser to those in the Underoo Avengers game, I designed two of the puzzles today and I think it's safe to say that they're over the top of all the past Grimm puzzles. Also, I'm about half-way through character creation and I can't decide which one I'd play if I were in the game, because they're all so kooky. I'll post the character bios when I'm satisfied with them all; they'll be tweaked slightly from my earlier post.

20 days remain!

Could you be more specific? If something "isn't working" then we want to get it working. And if someone is simply having a problem then we wish to help them with that problem.

Consider it yours, and please do get back to Rel on what exactly is awry with the registration system. We thought all of the registration issues were ironed out, but if there are problems, the great folks that keep that stuff going generally like to fix them before they become widespread. (Thanks again Niel, Rel, for keeping that operational!)

Another quick update: I've got all of the characters figured out, I just need to work out a few kinks. Meaning that I should be able to post bios and basic abilities by the middle of the week! (This being a giant leap forward for me since characters are usually done around 3-6 hours before the event starts ).

The system sent me a confirmation email, but the link didnt work, it would take me to a page that said missing parameters. I tried copy and paste. No go, then repeated the process in IE as i was originally in netscape. I tried registering with a different email and username, same problem. I then asked it to send me another confirm email from the missing parameters error page. It has yet to arrive and it's been several hours.

Let me know the username that you tried to use in the first place and I'll go in and manually have it send you a new password and see if that works.

 

[FyreHowl]

Fyrehowl is the username i was trying originally.
PrismWuff was the second username.

i'd rather not give out the email i used to register Fyrehowl here. however, i did send an email to the m something account from that email.
