Had to move abruptly, too many problems at the house, and if I'd stayed, I'd most likely wind up in prison for assault, or worse. I may be MIA for a bit, but once I get wifi set up at ma's, I'll bring back in the game! Sorry ya'll

Just take 5hat time to save for a place with a better set of roomates. Sorry you had to deal with jackholes like that.

i've moved all my stuff out of my original place, and i'm gonna play some hardball tactics and see how it plays out. good thing i have both diplomacy and intimidation skills. xD
me and the current roomy are both giving our ultimatums to the land lord, and threaten him with code, and we're withholding rent, until we
see the electricity repaired, and repaired right. no meatball jobs!

Them angry pixie tunnels are serious business!  They can start fires if you let them get loose!

Very important!! Check your state and local laws to be sure, but in most states, just withholding the rent puts the landlord within rights to evict you and send all the remaining rent due for your lease period into collection.  What you're likely required to do is put the rent amount into an escrow account to be paid to the landlord when repairs are completed, often less a pro-rata deduction for the period when the premises were legally uninhabitable (i.e. unsafe due to electrical faults or fire code violations, lacking electrical, water or sewer service due to landlord's negligence or malfeasance, etc.).

The important point here is that you need to be able to prove you had the rent to pay on or before the date it was due, and still have it available at all times from then until the situation is resolved.

we'll just report it to code, for the unsafe conditions, and the failure to maintain the property. and if worst comes to worst, abandon ship! i'm current on my rent, up to this month, and have my receipts.

Once we're settled back in town (resolving money, points, etc) Dareos is going to take a break from adventuring to start cultivating a stronger following of his religion.

While he's doing that, his player will be away as well on his own hiatus.


I've had fun with the groups I've adventured with. Hope to see you all when I/we return.

In reply to Dareos Madrigar (msg # 180):

Be well Jessie! It has been good having you here!

Duty calls, I will be away for who knows how long on active duty.

In reply to Ryojin (msg # 182):

I salute you Andre!

In reply to Ryojin (msg # 182):

I would ask where, but no chance of meeting with all the current restrictions!

Thank you for your service.  That goes for all the service people.

Many of us have been there and done that, we will save you a spot for whenever you get back and feel like rejoining.

The next couple weeks I'm going to be short on time.

In reply to Berry (msg # 187):

Thank you Berry

My father went into the hospital this morning.  I may have more or less time to post depending on how he does.

In reply to Balir Ironhide (msg # 189):

attend to him as best you are able. that absolutely comes first.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 190):

Just a heads up: I will have very limited connectivity for the next three weeks, and for the next 8 weeks after that, work will be crazy, so expect a slow-down in my posting, but I will try to keep up.

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 191):

Thank you

I'll be visiting my family for a few days. I should be back by Wednesday.

In reply to Jendrich (msg # 193):

Thank you, be safe@

In reply to Narrator (msg # 194):

Just a heads up. On Monday we will be setting off for four weeks with work. It is likely that I will not be able to post regularly, if at all, during that time. Sorry for the inconvenience.

On vacation next week.  While I should be on, posting may be irregular depending on many factors (principally safety).

In reply to Balir Ironhide (msg # 196):

From this Sunday Australian Time I may be a bit more scarce than usual for two weeks, as I am spending time with family!

sorry I've been ridiculously busy - the end of the final semester has meant a ton of work and job searching (the job searching hasn't been going too well, unfortunately).
