COMMENT THREAD 3

This thread is for in-game comments that would be made in the main thread except that they might slow the flow down or make it difficult for some people to follow.  For example, the types of things that should be here are:

1) Questioning the all-powerful DM and risking the judgment of the gods to fall upon your character's heads:

In other words, if you think I goofed up, let me know.  I may not change the post, but I'll have it in mind to avoid the same mistake again.  Example:

In game post (DM):  "You get hit with dragon fear."
 Post here (Player):  "You forgot my amulet."
 DM: Oh, I'll fix it.  (edits game thread)

2) Clarifying any in game details:
 Example 1:
 Player:  Is he ahead or behind me?  What square is he in?  Can I reach the potion on the shelf from here?

Example 2:
 DM:  Player, you forgot to tell me your ending position.  Let me know, or I'll have to take my best guess.

3) Other things that are relevant to the current situation in the game but just probably don't belong there.  Example:

Borimer, are you wearing your +5 Hula Skirt of hip movement?

4)  Celebrations or comments.  Example:

Woohoo, I just hit AC-10 with my heavy metal guitar of fretting.  Take that, Asmodeus!

* * *

WHAT NOT TO POST HERE:

Don't post here any IC dialogue that belongs in the flow of the game.

Don't post here your main move in the game (such as where the character is going and what he is doing).

Truly OOC Comments are best in the Community Chat thread.  Things like if you will be absent from the game awhile or other things related to you as a person and not your PC or game issues.

Re: COMMENT THREAD 3

What are we using for light?  I have 60' infravision, but I suspect someone has a light source going which renders infravision ineffective.

FYI, I have no light spells in my book so I can't cast one.

Re: COMMENT THREAD 3

Good question.  The basic light source you have (unless someone has another) is the glowing crystals on the wall, which light up the cavern enough so that it is still shadowed and dark, yet navigable like just after dusk.
