Guys, Sunday's off. My mother just had the most insane, out-of-touch and outright stupid ranting session I've ever heard in my life. She decided that her son would not be a high school dropout because of gaming (despite the fact that I'm only behind because of, you know, a GODDAMN BROKEN KNEE.) so she made me a "fair" deal: I finish my Science Fair Project, my Spanish Project, and the two weeks I'm missing of History homework TOMORROW, and I get to play D&D Sunday. I'm contemplating whether to do to the work and then smack her upside the face with it, or just call the psychiatric ward to take her away, because there wasn't even a hint of logic in her speech beyond the lies about gaming that the media shoves down parents' throats.

Tell me about it, mines are going insane over me having a webcam to chat with me friends, because somehow someway webcams will corrupt me and cause me to become a fiend or something. But I just stopped listening and sneaked a webby on me room to talk to me friends when I'm alone.
But damn, is it just me or parents get mroe irrational as they age.

I might as well be a witch, the way she looks at my computer.

edit: how are we gonna integrate the new guys anyway? Since we're about to get smacked down by the golem will they arrive from the rear and save everyone?

Yeah, that was the general idea. Making you guys fight this encounter two short would be mean.

If my time is noted as forum time, then Its okay with me, I'll just have to get up a little earlier.

I've recently learned forum time can be set (somehow), so basing things on forum time can be dangerous. I think the default forum time is -5 GMT, since that's what mine is and I've never changed it. What time zone are you in?

I'm contemplating whether to do to the work and then smack her upside the face with it...

DO THIS ONE.

So...I'm going to think on whether we should skip this session or do it without you. Since it involves me waking up early I'm leaning towards the former, but I'm also trying my damnedest to arrange 2 sessions a week from this point on. Input from other players on these judgments is always nice. I'm also considering, as an option, to reduce the party size by 1 (through natural causes, the next time someone dies/drops out), since it's hard to get 7 people together at the same time.
My days off this week are Thu/Fri (ARG QUIT CHANGING THEM BOSSMAN), in case anyone is wondering, so a session should take place Thursday regardless of this weekend.

ALSO WHERE THE HELL IS LEAFSNAIL? I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN POSTING IN OTHER TOPICS DOOD.

Pfft, I might be some sort of sex criminal victim or something, or a devil worshipper. The fact they watch the local highly conservative media doesn't help one bit.

I've done reports on violent video games though I'm not sure how much sway that would hold with your parents, heres a link that might help.

I used this link for a bit of my research. Get that work done, ye might have to spend all day doing it but then its done and no worries anymore.

Wow, at this rate I might actually see the end of the waiting list. I will seriously consider making a character soon.

Ye might as well, I don't see many on the waiting list posting here so ye might even get a bump up if needed. Just make sure to be flexible with what char you make just in case, frankly I don't want the group to get to heavy in one area.

I would probably make a cleric aiming for the Thaumaturgist prestige class. Missing out on the rapid spell metamagic feat would be a bit of a pain but still manageable...

How are you going for casters and clerics?

I'd love to play this sunday.
That's cause this games is going slow Neruz'es game goes WAY faster

Also something I have to know ( if you would be so kind)
How tough is the elemental, or what size?
because if he's small I have a turn or two before I die to smack him.

OK well if Leafsnail can make it we'll do tomorrow, I don't want to do another session missing 2 players, I think that contributes to the slowness and Leafsnail has already missed a lot of this...

Also, everyone figure out your AIM today so I can make a OOC group chat. I'm lookoutforninjasAThotmailDOTcom.

And yeah, the elemental is small. I still suggest tactical retreat, since fighting him in that corridor could be deadly.

Suggestion: Use IRC for OOC, as I'm guessing AIM (whatever it is) doesn't work on this mac.

Some research proves me wrong.

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

Easier way: Download pidgin, you can use any instant messager account on it. If you log with all your accounts on it, it adds all your friends from all accounts so you can talk to all of them in a single messager.

Plus it works on macs and linux, IRC.
