bah, no worries, mate. I replied back to ... uh... your reply
So... good news folks, as stated, the game is a go. So we'll need to figure out the roster... but we'll have some time before we can start playing yet. Still gotta get the book. Which brings up the first point; I won't know all of the rules when we start this thing. So... let's try to concentrate on the RP side of it (Which I don't think will be a problem) and let the game mechanics come along as they will. If we make some "mistakes" at first, we'll just live with it. We may need to make some changes somewhere down the line (I'd hate to have to nerf someone's character, I don't want to, but without knowing the game mechanics ... well, let's just say that everyone ought to try to be a bit open in case it has to happen.)
But, all in all, I don't think any of that should be a problem. Since we have some time, we can discuss our character ideas? Any other thoughts out there about the game? Concerns about me being GM? ("HEY, he doesn't even have 200 posts yet!!!!" "Um... dude, Vendetta seems like a total dweeb" "Hey, he's only doing this to get a free copy of the book!!!")
Well... a little about me.
I'm a wanna-be writer working on a Novel (nearly complete) and four comic book titles. I moderate the writers' forum over at Penciljack.com, a site devoted to people who want to break into the comic book industry.
I work as a teacher's assistant at a school for at risk teenagers and am trying to finish college so that I can get my credential and be a real teacher and get the BIG BUCKs
... well, hey, they get paid better than I do. Though the pay sucks, I have a pretty good benefits package and get 55 total paid days off a year (my god, that is nice). I love those kids but want to strangle them most of the time. I'm not wholly sure that it should be illegal. Some of these kids really need a good strangling. (Ok... I hope no one thinks I seriously want to kill any of the kids... but... sometimes I do... but not
really... unless he or she
really needs it...)
I do a lot of GMing for my game group here in Sacramento. You may know Deadestdai and Ferretguy from these forums. They game with me and got me turned onto this site less than a year ago. It took me a while to get into a few games (well, games that actually survived... got into several that ended up falling flat like a really cool Harry Potter game using d20 modern. Man, that group was RPing our bums off but the GM never did get back to it), which is why my post count is rather low. I am in a couple of games that I'm excited about.
Oathbound DMed by Ashy in which I play Xerxes, a friendly Xeph Psion.
The Lost Patriarch DMed by DragonXitz where I play Zar-Vroxiar, a brash, arrogant Sea Elf Wizard.
and
Yrtchull's Return DMed by Uriel. I'd not joined this one until page 15. I'm playing Vorath, a somber and somewhat morose Duergar Dwarf who was subject to some kind of Arcane experiment that merged him with an insect (Insect template)
So, that is probably more than you wanted to know and if you skipped all of that then you probably made a wise move. GOOD FOR YOU! hehe.
Give me a little while to settle in at workk, I got a meeting at the top of the hour, but I shoot you a soon after that.

sorry about that, I'm scatter brained at times.
on you.
