Thanks for letting me know.  My internet access is pretty sketchy till August 5th anyway.  I've been doing good to get on every day, but that likely may not last.  If I'm MIA for a day or two, don't give up on the game.  I will have regular access come Aug. 5th.

I'm guessing what happend with the castle was not magical in any way, it was just plain cannon fire.  Is that a technology our characters are familiar with or is it brand new?

Website for game is up.  Hope y'all find it useful.  Get signed up and I will add y'all as contributors so you can help update the site.

Ok cool I'm all signed up.  Never had a game with a web site before.  What are we to do with it exactly?

Reference.  If you forget a who what when etc it will be there.  You can also edit your own characters or whatever you feel you can add to.

I didn't see how to sign up, but it appears I can edit.

i just made an account on the regular wikia page and it seems like i can sign in and edit the 5th age wikia.  I have never used a wikia before though, not sure how to create new pages of how to navigate really but im sure i can figure it out.  Should we be putting up character sheets or just character information?

I would prefer character profiles and descriptions   If you feel like doing so, you can describe your general stats creatively. If you feel you must, edit your character page however you wish.

Wiki is updated.  All you have to do is click the red link with your name to go to that page or begin editing it, if it doesn't exist yet.

Feel free to make whatever requests you need to here or on the wiki.

Awesome wikis.  Should help keep a lot of stuff straight.

I like the idea of experience points for skills.

When using a skill do we just PM you that we want to use it or should it be in an OOC line on the game thread?

More free time Friday night

Ano, I was using private inline messages to the GM for most of my skill rolls. Public stuff, for me, would just be copied into the message without the privacy.

Also, with the rabbit meat... I must have read it wrong, for I assumed it was cooked. Lol, raw rabbit meat isn't very appealing.

PM me any skill checks you want to roll/take 10 or 20 on within the main thread.  I have been taking 10s and 20s on certain skill rolls like Gather Information when it made sense from your posts, but a record of active use of the skill in a PM just below your main post would make it easier to track skill use and award skill XP.

Glad you like the wiki.  Hope it helps.

Hey all,

Apologies for my absence. I've had some crazy and demanding stuff going on at home, and have been having a tough time finding time for anything extra. I'm getting caught up again now, but there's a non-zero chance I may drop out for a bit here and there. Will do my best, though!

Welcome back Phin! I hope all is going well on the home front.

I got to the Wiki, edited Klale to add background, published it, and it dowsn't appear unless I click Edit again. What am I doing wrong?

Did you log in to the wiki first?

Or maybe you didn't hit "publish" so its in your editor but not up yet.  I see it in the history section.  I'll publish for you.

Just an fyi, I just released my second novel in the Islands of Loar series.  The first is called Sundered.  The second, released today, is Causality.  You can find links to purchase both at my website:

Lol, nice plug.

Congrats btw... that's quite an accomplishment.

Thanks.

In reply to Eru (msg # 36):

Hey, big congrats! I didn't know about these books -- I just grabbed the first on Kindle, and will look forward to checking it out.

Cheers,

Here is what the least favorable Amazon review said:

Based on it, I suggest that an index and, perhaps, a chronology be appended (if they aren't). Note that this "least favorable" is still favorable.

 This review is from: Islands of Loar: Sundered (Kindle Edition)
Like most epic fantasies, readers will find themselves in a well thought out world with plenty of magical objects and characters of many different types...aeromancers, elves, humans, etc. Along with other dangerous creatures. The writing is very polished and the description detailed. Overall, it's very well written.

This is not a light read by any means. I found that I had to often re-read chapters in an effort to keep track of everything. Part of the reason for this is that the world building is very complex and interesting. The second reason is there are numerous characters. Doogan sort of stands out as the main character, but a lot of chapters are devoted to other characters as well. He was my favorite character in the story. I liked his independent attitude and determination.

I found the prologue and first chapter to be hookish with a good amount of conflict. After these, I found the conflict very light and the plot vague. Because several chapters start with a new character, I found it hard to connect with any of them or even remember them all without studying. Overall, I would've liked to see a lot more conflict, suspense, less characters and more time spent with the main characters, which I think were Doogan and Muskrat.

I think this book will appeal to readers who are big on epic fantasy and world building.

Congratulations on the book release, i will have to take a look and see if it's my kind of read.

The appendix became prohibitively cumbersome and expensive.  There is a link at the end to the wiki I started for my novels that provides a more interactive version of an appendix.

Thanks for checking it out. :)
