Final push of grading student papers, should be clear by the middle-end of next week. Please take care of Jonas until then.

 We are waiting for Cord. Yes?

Yes, but you need to take your turn as well.

Check Franklin's post, he is severely wounded and won't survive another hit. You'll need to cover for him. Look at the map too, he may be safe if he stays in the ally and doesn't try to shoot.

Expect to be clear of the Grading Monster by end Wednesday at the latest... then I'll get Cord to start shooting.

Works for me :)

Thank you for your patience. Marking is now done!!!

Oh well, still need to put the marks in this fancy spreadsheet they feed into the system to generate the reports for the Module Board. But the gradins is complete :)

And Jonas has at long last fired a shot!

In reply to Jonas Cord (msg # 143):

Are we waiting on me?

You and Jonas, I think.

Read msg #48 and #50 in the main Chapter 12: Jailbreak! thread and go from there.

Of course, after the grading come the Examination Boards. Spent the morning deciding the fate of Year 2 students... can they progress, do they have to resit anything, or are they doing so poorly that they are put in Jeopardy which is not a quiz show but when a student is summoned to explain how they are going to pull their socks up or they get chucked out.

I'll go and do some more shootin' now.

 The gunfight is over, I am assuming. Any chance of turning on the recruiting sign, GM?

For anyone interested in a short One Shot adventure I am considering running the old White Dwarf magazine adventure "Bar Room Brawl"

Nothing wrong with a good bar room shindig!

I will participate.

 White Dwarf magazine

 Back when the world was young, and WD was a real game magazine, instead of a house organ.

 Sure, I am in
 Why not

I’m confused about the rooms. £35 is fine, I have that. But you said one room, double bed and there are four of us. I guess we could put two in the hotel and two at the camp/wagon, or try at La Loma.

Where are you going to get the second bed?

I think it might be a good idea for everyone to read through the previous chapter, there are a couple of clues there about potential plot lines/happenings in town.  The day before (actually the day of) the jailbreak attempt there was an influx of people into town, which is why the hotel only has one room and the town has a lot more people in and around it, including the tent town springing up around your camp site.

It’s these two statements that have confused me. If there is only one room, and it’s a double bed, why is he asking fir $35?

Are you familiar with the concept of demand and supply?  There are less rooms and beds available than the current demand.  The rooms only have one bed but you want a room for 4 people, so two can sleep in the bed, the others are on the floor if you want to squeeze 4 people into a room designed for only 2 people.

Does sleeping in the floor count towards the recovery, or would we be as well off sleeping under the wagon in a comfortable bedroll (with an extra $17.50 in our pockets)? Or we could take the double for two weeks and switch occupants half way through.

I’m not quite clear what benefit the hotel floor has over the chuck wagon.

Try sleeping in a bedroll in winter outdoors and then sleeping in a bedroll indoors in winter and tell me which you prefer?

Either, but I have an excellent warm sleeping bag :)

 GM, There is a GM wanted for someone looking for a Western to rp in. I spoke to the  person, and he wanted me to put you in touch with you. Below is the add he placed.

 How are we going to pass the time healing?
