Re: OOC: Clarifications and Chatter: Four To Doomsday

Gary, would you like to play something? As a GM myself, I know that I just get sick and tired of even great games. I can run a number of things for this group, although not Dr Who (as I have trouble with Dr Who from an GMs perspective.)

Re: OOC: Clarifications and Chatter: Four To Doomsday

Not necessarily but maybe?  I hadn't been feeling particularly burned out, but in a lot of ways I tend to run this game on reactive creativity -- I tend not to do threats breathing down the PCs' necks until a scenario is well under way, as a lot of what I like about Who is seeing the characters engage with where they end up.  And very often the central trouble is going be fairly vaguely formed until the players have got their hands on and start to spin theories to steal....

I'd love to be doing something in Cortex+ Heroic (I had immense amounts of fun with a long running Marvel game I was in), or various other systems that I find shinier than DWAITAS.  Though that might be a case of itchy feet over games I'm not running, rather than lack of opportunity to play.  And neither really overrides my wish to bring this game to the sort of conclusion I imagine for it.

I'm here. Though was swamped majorly with work till this month, and though it's kinda let-up, it's being busy in a different way.

Hey, are you waiting for a post from me? Or did you need more from my last post?

So, I'm moving this weekend, so won't be able to post for a bit. Will need to unpack, and get internet set up.

Back, kinda. Still getting internet set up at home, but going back to work tomorrow, and so will be doing all my posts when I get home, but they'll probably be quicker.

Re: OOC: Clarifications and Chatter: Four To Doomsday

Cool.  We've been hanging for a bit, and I admit a bit of that is my hesitation because the other PCs have been getting geographically close to Kalath; I've been undecided about how to handle that.

Happy Father's Day to those that celebrate the US Holiday. Looking forward to starting up again.

We can chalk this extended break to Michelle Yeoh playing evil Phillipa Georgiou on Star Trek:Discovery. Beware fan fist fights at cons between Trek fans and Kang cosplayers.

Re: OOC: Clarifications and Chatter: Four To Doomsday

Do we actually have collective interest in resuming, or is it time to shake hands all around and officially call it?  I ask this mainly because it feels like we've done a couple of stalls and attempts to move again, and for whatever reason they have sputtered out.

Alternatively, any interest among this group in starting up a different game?  We've had a great group here over the years, but I wonder if some of us are just burned out on this game in particular.

Re: OOC: Clarifications and Chatter: Four To Doomsday

It seems to happen to a lot of games, sadly. For whatever reason, people stop or slow down in posting and things grind to halt. My own Who games for example. :(

But I'm still keen to play this if everyone else is. I need Smoke Alarm in my life, really. But the stalls and slow pace have made it difficult to maintain a feel for her and Kang-speak.

Re: OOC: Clarifications and Chatter: Four To Doomsday

This thing has been going on and off since 2013. Gary, if you're not feeling it, then it would be wrong to continue. I feel that part of it is that there is no current Who series to draw energy off of currently on the air.

I need Trav in my life too, but if the energy's not there, then we're just spinning our wheels.

If we do something new, what's on your mind?

Re: OOC: Clarifications and Chatter: Four To Doomsday

Heyo all, a RIFTS game has accepted an app from me, I'm playing 5th Trav right before she returned to N-Space (beginning <i>Always Time To Travel). Kind of a home coming.

It'd be pretty hilarious if one of y'all would come along. Pushing up the timeline a bit could have any of you guys as 5th Trav's companions. Smoke Alarm would fit right into the 3 Galaxies of Phase World ;P

Sorry all. God damned NBN. It's actually taken me this long to get home internet.

Re: OOC: Clarifications and Chatter: Four To Doomsday

All too briefly, I had the pleasure of playing a Smoke Alarm inspired character in a game on RPGnet.  It was a Risus game set on the Discworld, with the PCs as a new squad of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch.  (Yeah, I know -- caretakers.  Then again I feel like the Watch hardly counts.)

One of the cliches I made up for Junior Associate Probationary Watchperson Verity Smoke was Urban Mobility Performance Artist. :)

Hi everyone. If anyone can still here this, I hope you are all well. I love coming back here, this was one of the best games I ever had the privilege to play in. Remember these two things - there's always time to travel, and blue Kangs are best!

Re: OOC: Clarifications and Chatter: Four To Doomsday

I'm tempted to start an IC thread and have Trav waving Smoke into the TARDIS to go flying off on an adventure. With our favorite Draconian and medical doctor too!

I hope the Traveller holds a place in your hearts as your second favorite Time Lord.
