Hanging in there. Better than the alternative.
Yeah, we haven't had a hiveminding discussion in a while, where we'd go through many pages of posts in a day.
I've been busy, myself. Last month involved various errands, which included being the best man for a wedding (which involves wedding planning stuff, speech planning stuff, and bachelor party planning stuff), and since then my parents have been out of town and I've had to take care of their small business.
They get back this week, so hopefully I'll have some extra time... eventually. Though I've been using a lot of my free time hanging out with a giiiiirl (said in that drawn-out annoyingly happy way).
What's X-crawl?

The roleplaying game takes place in the near future. Dungeon crawls are set up, sponcered and recorded for TV much like sporting events. There are fantasy creatures and death can be a part of it. Or think of Running Man the movie from the eighties with Arnold.
My version is more Fantasy (no high tech beyond what can be found in Eberron).
There will be four teams of four characters. The goal is something like capture the flag. Anuthing goes. Death is allowed but cloning is required. Players will wander through a dungeon with a set theme (in this case a ruined city) and face creatures, traps, environment, other teams and the worse- ratings! If it seems dull or boring I, as Grand GM, can arrange things to happen. Dragon pops out of no where or a cused weapon just happens to be in the hallway unguarded that you are about to enter.
It is meant to be funny and crazy at the same time. Over the Top comes to mind as a theme.
As I do more I'll announce it or mention here again. I have stricter rules for character creation in this PbP than the last one. Basically just Core books, Complete books that I own and the psionic books can be used.
I want one team to hide their flag, and then Polymorph a bunny (or something) to be a fake flag...MavrickWeirdo

I've been working on a new project I call "Getting a Life". I have been making new friends, visiting family (Cape Cod, York Beach Maine), riding my bicycle along the Blackstone River Trail, hiking in Wachusette Meadow. I played in 7 face to face RPG's in July (including 4 at the Boston Area Gameday). I also bought Firefly on DVD and went to see Lady in the Water.
So that is my excuse for neglecting the Hivemind a bit.
How have you been?

Sounds like you are in excellent shape. I may have passed you in Maine. I was there vacationing (Old Orchid Beach) from the 27th to the 30th. A lot of bikes. I believe there was a con or meet there.
I am still only doing the one game every two weeks. Creation Schema is beginning to slow down and wrap up as I now have a player that has reached 15th level. I guess next Spring I will begin The Chaos Effect in full.
How was Lady in Water? Seemed spooky for kids but I haven't seen much about it either way.
Otherwise I am doing well. I have taken 1/2 week off from one job and 1 1/2 weeks off from the other in the past two weeks giving me down time I really needed. The wife and I are slowly repairing our marriage. Major trust issues still but that will happen (possibly forever).
Kids are happy I'm home more and that I am staying.
