I haven't slept all night in decades.

I guess I need help finding a color no one is using. Suggestions?

Nobody's posted since my last post, that I've seen... and Tunic's player hasn't logged in since June 6th...

People still interested?  I don't want to abandon players, but if I don't move things along, the game's basically dead...

I am still in; just swamped with work.
I’ll get a post in later.

Sorry, I had nothing to respond to and I have been busy.  Out of town for the week, but have internet part of the day.

Work's been a bear for me as well. 13 hour days in 90+ heat and high humidity has sucked all the energy out of me

In reply to Piecemeal (msg # 343):

90's would be a nice change around here, 118 yesterday according to my outdoor thermometer.

Hey, sorry about disappearing on all of you. There was a death in my family-of-choice while I was on vacation. I am back now and will be catching up shortly.

Family first.

What Mawr said.  Very sorry about your loss.  :(

I'm so sorry to hear.

Update coming tomorrow guys.  :)

Huzzah!

My goal is at least one GM update on Wednesday and another on a weekend day (Sat/Sun depending on my work schedule).  Anything more I can sneak in is gravy. :)

It's all good, more regular than most of my games.

Yamato?

Nope. ;)

You can see the resemblance, right? Did you ever watch Starblazers? Fire the wave motion gun!

"Did I see Starblazers" LOL.  Yes.  Yes I did. An area of study of mine is the Pacific War during WW II, especially the IJN, and that all started with "Wave motion gun, ready to fire!" :D

The similarity you're seeing is the red-painted bulbous bow, which was pioneered by Yamato, but used in modern ships since.

OOC, if you look at the ship carefully with a modern eye, you'd see the flattop, and that it's a carrier.  But, your characters wouldn't know that. :D

I thought so, but I wasn't sure. Still, an evocative and imposing image! Very nice.

Growing up in the 80's, I still remember fondly playing Gamma World tabletop.  The art of 1st and 2nd edition were captivating; and now, with the internet, the world is our oyster in that respect. :)

Normally I wouldn't claim this, but I have had this image prepared since the game began. :)

In reply to Mutant Lord (msg # 358):

I have a nice collection of images saved up, though DMing on line has so disappointed me, not sure I will every use them. I had a one-on-one game I had high hopes for, but the player and I simply couldn't get on the page. I used some really nice imagery I though, as I sent him on a spirit-walk to try and find his path.

This is a weird Gamma World for me, I always played the game on a shattered Earth, with the remnants of our modern day Earth visible here in there. I think my favorite game started with a person from out world who survived the apocalypse, waking up in the future, but the person was actually playing themselves.

I successfully avoided making a wave motion gun reference.

Just as an aside:  a reminder to the longer-term players, and for the knowledge of the newer players, Stylus has the negative mutation:

~ Prey Scent
The mutant’s body sends out waves of scent that will attract predators. The ML may increase the occurrence of wandering monsters, at his discretion.

In reply to Stylus (msg # 361):

Good to know. You already saw that I tend to make people want to attack me, I imagine that works for monsters as well. If I can survive the onslaught, their focus on me might work to our advantage.
