Can't afford to fix it, but can't afford to get a new one.

The socket where the VGA cable gets attached apparently was damaged when the cable was. It's just a little loose. It's fine as long as I make sure I don't jiggle it when I'm moving the laptop.

Apologies once again for the delay. As you are about to enter combat, I had to re-familiarize myself with the combat rules. They are easy enough, but I just haven't used them in awhile now. Plus, I'm GMing/playing several different systems. It can get a bit tricky to keep them all straight. How many dice do I roll? What kind of dice? Do I want to roll high or low? Etc.

Additionally, I have to be conscious enough to comprehend what I read! If I don't get to it in the morning, my brain gets a bit foggy by evening.

Anyway, keep posting! Even if it's an OOC. It not only lets the other players know  you are still around and interested, it may even wake me up!

Yikes... look at all those 1s!

Apparently the Vendel/Vesten is coming for them!

I was giving Alessandra till last Sunday to post before dealing with the combat... and then everything got away from me again! Pfui.

Valentino! We're waiting on you!

In reply to Dread Pirate Robert (msg # 418):

Sorry, was a little busy.

I did a search for your other games, Starmaster. Yikes! You're running about 20 games! No wonder it bogs you down at times!

Most of them look pretty fun games though.

Yeah; I'm in his (or one of, if he has more than 1) Stargate game; it is pretty fun. :)

I'm giving him headaches in his Iron Kingdoms game. I almost feel sorry for him. Perhaps I should join the Stargate one too, sounds awesome!

Thanks for the compliments... sort of.

I suppose I try to run games in the same way I'd like to play them.

Yeah, running 20 games, trying to play in 4 others. 5 of the games I took over from another GM that had to bow out, including the Stargate game.

Apologies for the delay. About the only thing I'm good at is procrastinating.

Plus, I hit the Wall again.  That 'waiting for someone to post something I need to respond to' and the 'I'm still trying to figure out what to do next' Wall.

I think it started with me waiting for Alessandra to post.

een sick for the past week. Nothing serious, just a seasonal cold where my whole body aches, I take the usual meds, and then all I feel like doing is laying around in bed all day. It's still hanging on which is why I'm posting this.

I had that a week before Christmas. Fortunately, I got over it before it interfered with any holidays. Get well soon!

Geez totally lost track of this game. Sorry all. I assume that the GM's cold is over by now. 😂

I do that sometimes myself, then wonder where the hell the week/month went.

I was just getting ready to put up a post tomorrow saying that I was closing down the game because no one was posting (including me)... would have given it a week before deleting it.

On with the show!

There doesn't seem to be enough interest left in this game to keep it going, so unless there's a huge outcry against it, I'll be deleting this game on Sunday.

:{ I guess it is time to let it go, huh?

Or maybe not...

I distinctly remember writing a post  for what you see when you open the door, and yet it isn't there! I'm baffled. I know sometimes I write a post in my head, like when I'm trying to go to sleep at night, and then FORGET to actually post it. And sometimes I'll write a post and go to post it and the server somewhere along the way is down and it doesn't go through. When that happens, I copy it to a file for later. That doesn't seem to be the case here (or if it is, I forgot about it and even forgot where I filed it).

There was just too much detail for me to have NOT written it. Some of it I've forgotten, I'm sure, but I'll try to reconstruct it.

In any case, I kept waiting for someone else to post... and all along you were waiting for ME to post, but, in my head, I'd already posted!

As I tell the players in my other games, if you are waiting for me to post for over two days, especially over three days, send me a PM to remind me you are waiting. Or, better yet, just keep posting!

I expected that you were waiting for more than just the 2 players to post. I was saddened to see no more than my post and one other (and both directed at neither of us who did post, so hard to react to). :(

This is always a quandary for me; I don't want to overpost and stomp on all the rest of the players, so I want to give plenty of time for people to react/respond, etc... but then, if no one does, I forget to check-in and post some more.

Yeah, there's always that.

Shoul have known better and posted anyway.

My excuse is that I was on a leave-of-absence due to work and other RL issues.

Back now.

Doesn't seem to be enough interest left in this game, so it's probably time to delete it.

I was hoping to find out what we found up the stairs.

I guess no one else is interested enough to check in, though. :(
