[QUOTE="Trevalon Moonleirion, post: 4998419, member: 492"] [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/267386-chicago-gameday-24-november-14th-sign-up-6.html[/url] Post in the thread, or get a hold of our esteemed organizer Buzz, and you can get added to the mailling list. We have a little mini-con about 3 times per year. Next one should be in February or March? As to my pilfered skill challenge.... What fun! I wasn't quite sure how it would work out, but I felt like it was able to condense a lot of action into a few meaningful rolls. I'd like to do more skill challenges like it, though I'm not sure if I could make one myself that I'd be all that proud of. One thing that I struggled a bit with how to run the skill challenge was how to exactly run it--I settled on just going around the table in order, and asking everyone what they were doing (skill) and to describe how they were doing it. It'd probably be more consistent with the rest of the rules to just go in initiative order, but going around the table was nice and fast. I also got asked a question that I hadn't throught of beforehand, though I think I'm pretty happy with my table ruling: can you do secondary skills before you've escaped, or are they purely for people that succeed on the challenge before everyone else, and are then able to help? I went with the latter--that the PCs first priority was getting out of the place alive, and that only after they made their successes did they get out. [/QUOTE]
