Whirtlestaff's Wizards' Academy Revisited, OOC01

[Scott DeWar]

ooc: I'm here, just haven't been feeling well, must be getting old!

ooc: Cool. Hope you feel better soon! Ic update coming ths evening.

Ooc: Nah! You're not old. Now, dewar, he's old!

[sblock=how old is he?]you're just, what, 43 now, bro? I seem to remember you having a january birthday. Am i even close to right? Ooops! Now i'm thinking maybe it's february, so that would mean you're almost 43, huh?[/sblock]

*ahem* i represent that remark, thank you!

 

[Scott DeWar]

So. What is the deal? Why haven't you blogged yet? Are you trying to afflict me?

I can't figure out how to reply to your blog...I'm technically impaired

dittos on that here too. can i talk you into copy/paste and e-mail it? I know i can open that up.

Ok, maybe the blog thing wasn't such a great idea after all. I thought that anyone would be able to modify a blog, but maybe I was wrong. Do you know about this stuff, Scotley?

 

[Scotley]

My understanding is that you can have your own blog, but you can't post to someone else's. So this is OOC thread is really the proper place for such a discussion. To quote from the blog:

Ok, the end of the adventure is in sight, sorta. Admittedly, 'closing' this door 'opens' five or six more, but, still, it's a good place to start a different activity if you want. I feel a little bit bad because I rooked most of you guys into this game with the promise that it would be a Wizard's Academy, but you have yet to spend even one measly day at the actual academy.

But, if you guys don't care about that, we can keep right ahead adventuring just like you're doing now. Hmmm, I might even change the name of the campaign eventually, if we do that.

Anyway, I'm interested to hear what you guys all think about this, or anything else. So get to blogging here!

I feel no special need to return to the academy. I'm perfectly happy to continue with the threads we already have going. We have a Drow Wizard's tomb to find, an entrance to the underdark handy, a mystery door in the basement of an inn and some orcs with invasion on their minds. Any of that could be fun to explore. I was working from the assumption that the orcs would be the next challenge.

dittos t what scotley says.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

I'm perfectly happy either way. Adventure is the meat and bread of D&D, of course, but I trust our very creative DM to generate an engaging scenario for us no matter where we are.

 

[Leif]

Ok, great! (And thanks for the too-kind words, Mowgli!) Your list of options may be expanding sooner than you think, too. The White Fist Orcs could be next, I suppose, but they certainly don't have to be.

Let's wait to hear the opinions of Kerlan, Lou, and renau1g. (Dang! We're back up to a super-sized party again! And for a little while there, it looked like it was going to dwindle down to NOTHING!)

 

[renau1g]

Huzzah! Better too big than too small in PbP (you never know when some jerk will just drop off without notice... *doh!*) . As for the Academy, I'm fine with not returning right away as there is much more opportunity for applied research and experimentation out here than at Whirtlestaffs

 

[Leif]

[Aside, while waiting for posts by Lou and Kerlan] Lou, sounds like you'd better get to work on that alleged "sister" before too long. If I tried, I suppose I could stretch the remaining dungeon out for another two weeks, but, if I did that, I'd have a player revolt on my hands and you'd be the only party member left!

And you don't have to stick with Xavier's sister unless you just want to do so. I've got a way to get other Whirtlestaff's students written into the story any time now. Speaking of which, I guess Xavier's sister is a Whirtlestaff's student, too? Wow! A wizard family! Just like the Weaselys!
