If the prologues y'all are having are as interested in mine, we are in for one hell of a game...

Between now and Nov. 6th my output MAY be sporadic.
I'm running a Get Out the Vote site for a senate campaign.  I may be swamped.  I may *need* to post as an outlet.

Heck yeah it's been interesting. My prologue summary is up on the Obsidian Portal site




Good Luck with this.

In reply to Jon (msg # 24):

Yes yes! Much luck and good intentions!

And my wife is going out of town for some medical work next week, so I'm alone with the five year old. We'll see how much I get to post. :)

Recovery from the intensity of an election is much harder at 51 than it was at 23.  I should have something later today, tomorrow at the latest.

I never witnessed voter suppression until I moved to Indiana.

In reply to Vikram (msg # 26):

It was a doozy, that was for sure.
You actually saw voter suppression, though? I heard the stories, of course, but didn't see any in Central Texas. Though we did have the lovely 'crowd control practice' that had to be rescheduled over in El Paso.

In reply to Storyteller (msg # 27):

I've lived in Bryan/College Station.  Never saw anything there.
Move to Indiana...

One of the precincts I was responsible for during Get Out the Vote, a polling worker came out and claimed they didn't have the Democratic ballots, Dems would have to come back later.
Yes, you are right when you thought, "wait, General Election ballots aren't partisan."

In reply to Vikram (msg # 28):

lol Yeowch. I mean, hey, maybe they do things differently in Indiana, right? lol :)
Of course, in this part of Texas, Republicans don't need to do shady crap to win elections. They just show up. :-J

Happy American Thanksgiving to everybody!

Everybody gains +1 Temporary and Permanent Willpower!

I'm hoping the rest of you join Jon and me soon!

In reply to Vikram (msg # 31):

I think I should be

In reply to Leoncio (msg # 32):

Jon, I'm assuming your action has a little more to do before we can move forward?

In reply to Vikram (msg # 33):

He's come across something related to your problem, but it hasn't noticed him. You guys can investigate further or leave it alone.

In reply to Storyteller (msg # 34):

To honor the bounty of Christmas, for Christmas Eve:
Everyone gains 1 dot of Resources.

In M20, this can put your Resources above five dots.

In reply to Storyteller (msg # 35):

cool

In reply to Leoncio (msg # 36):

Happy Christmas, everyone!

+1 permanent increase to either Arete or any one attribute of your choice.

In reply to Storyteller (msg # 37):

Cool! That takes me to 4 for resources,(maybe he had a major windfall or something?)
and I will now have 3 in Dex

In reply to Leoncio (msg # 38):

Bank error in your favor!
lol :-b

In reply to Storyteller (msg # 39):

Nice, last job had a better bonus than I expected and I think I'll increase my Arete.

Arete as well.  Thanks Santa!

Happy New Year!

In honor of the season of renewal and rebirth, I'll let you make any revisions to your former character choices that you'd like. The only restriction, in keeping with Storyteller fashion, is that the changes have to remain within the same statistic group: so you can swap dots in one attribute with dots in another attribute, or dots between two abilities, but not between abilities and backgrounds or attributes. Naturally, this means you can't change your Arete nor Willpower.
You don't have to differentiate between dots you bought with the initial point spread and those you purchased with freebie points or even XP.
You're also free to tweak your paradigm or instruments if you feel the need.

In reply to Storyteller (msg # 42):

I have to apologize.  Right before the holidays, we bought a house.  So combine holidays with moving, and I haven't known whether I was coming or going.  I promise to be back in a day or so. -Vik

In reply to Vikram (msg # 43):

Ugh. That sounds like a whole lotta work.
Happy housewarming!

In reply to Vikram (msg # 43):

Congratz on the new house. I just spent 12k fixing the HVAC unit in mine and it was cheaper atm cuz it's dead of winter... effing expensive.

In reply to Jon (msg # 45):

12k?! Tell me that's in Yen.
