The new out-of-character discussion thread. The previous thread was moving close to the thousand post mark.

I'm trying the new version of RPOL that we are being forced to use in a couple of weeks. I hate it!

For me, the biggest adjustment has been navigating within a game itself. I didn’t realize how accustomed I had become to utilizing the in-game links at the top of the page. Now, they’re all in a pull down, but half the time I see the icon for it (a die), and I keep thinking “I don’t need the die roller, I need _________.”

I’m working at getting more comfortable with it.

It has shunted the top menu bar off to the side, shrinking actual game space. I don't know how that's a good idea.

I got lost in the threads, sorry to be THAT player... are we in 17? There seems to be two doors leading south on that hallway. Could Darth V be coming from the south westerly direction, and if not, might we escape that way and circle back to the exit? Sorry, I hate to admit I'm doing e of my own pet peeves.

Dryvyk, we're in Rooms 46/63 right now. As Barnabus has indicated, the only way out is through 45 and west toward Room 15.  And no worries about getting lost, we've all done that more than once!

I've been using the new format for months now, so I've already gotten used to it.  It works well enough, for a player at least.  Not sure for GMs.

To be a touch more accurate, it sounds as though the footfalls are coming from the northwest.

Barnabus:
#235 Arrival of V. at 47

Just for clarification, I didn’t say that Varghoulis arrived by way of the shrine of Nergal. Because, well, he didn’t.

Labyrinth Lord:
V. can’t teleport, but he might have access to entry points into the tombs, not unlike the shrine of Nergal.

Ah, thanks. I didn't remember the new updated map thread. I was looking at the game map menu instead, outdated info.

So looks to me like our hope is to race Darth V to 15 and try to keep ahead of him. Else, test the potency of Nineve's potion and use the death knight against his master...

In reply to Labyrinth Lord (msg # 7):

Thank you. That is good to know. It wouldn't change our next move, though -- perhaps the one after that, yes.
