Message: <blockquote data-quote="lumin" data-source="post: 5154517" data-attributes="member: 59785">Yeah, I had a good time last night.  I was surprised that so little progress was made though, I guess everyone was nervous about getting killed.  I was laughing out-loud when you guys were afraid to go into the cave because of the two statues standing in the entrance.  I didn't plan for that to happen at all, but was a pretty cool effect.  The typing didn't bother me, but hopefully I can get a mic so things can move a long a bit faster.  I don't mind Thursday nights, but I could do it an hour earlier if it worked for everyone else.  If not, then we can stick to the same time - that still works for me.Maptool is pretty nice, but it has always felt to be a little overkill to me.  To really get the most out of it, you have to go find or build your own tiles and maps which I don't really have a lot of time for.  The drawing tools that are in Maptool are more complicated to use than Gametable, so it generally takes longer to whip up things on the fly, and more time overall to prepare for a gaming session.I like that Gametable makes it so easy to drop in tiles and draw things without all of the built-in overhead functionality that Maptool comes with.  Gametable leaves only the bare minimum (leaving the rules outside the program), and is the closest you're going to get to a real erasable flip-mat experience.  It's a little bit buggy at times, but it gets the job done.</blockquote>
