[OOC] Dungeon Fantasy: Gorefest Dungeon II

[Stripe]

All right! Two OG's already! Good to see you guys! :D

EDJ, I demand you play a Wizard. Just kidding! ;) I love the half-ogre Scout concept. Brings to mind heavy artillery.

Zon, awesome to see our Knight's return for more blood! Looking forward to you reprising your role as the big shield. :)

I'm getting ready to step out, but I'll be back to give them a quick look see.


What times are you both considering for Roll20.net? What days and times are best?

It would be nice to get one more player, but it may not happen, so I'm thinking we start the game here on perhaps the 5th, then start looking at the 12th for our first VT session. Perhaps 7 p.m. to midnight, CDT? Earlier? Like 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.?

Let me know. :)

I had considered it, but I figured I'd give someone else that fun this time.

Saturday afternoon is best for me.

You could probably fill out the group if you ask in the IRC channel.

Saturday is likewise good for me. I have that day off for work.

Looks like we've already got one more, maybe. :)

And, yeah, I've not asked either IRC channels yet.

Well, we've had two showing interest, both in Cleric, but no real commitment. I'd rather have at least three players before we start. Everything I do is geared for 3-6 players with 4-5 being the sweet spot.

I don't know why I said we'd start on the 5th knowing good and well this is a big holiday weekend anyway. Stay tuned for early this week.

If we have to go at it with two players, I'll GMPC a super awesome Cleric that'll make your stupid PC's look so dumb. Also, he'll get all the sweet loot and hawt babes. His name will be Radical Roxorz. Everywhere he walks, heavy metal music plays.

You know, typical GMPC in other words. ;)

I'd love to get in on this, but I'm not sure how reliable I'd be able to be for the Saturday sessions.

Man, I hear you. Once people get past that Roll20.net is easy to join and play and is about as close to the kitchen table as a VTT can be, I think actually committing time is the hardest part.

People, myself included, just seem to find it hard to actually schedule time for a social activity. Added to that, Internet RP doesn't seem like a "real thing" to most people.

Player: "Sorry, can't go out. I got a thing tonight starting at five."

Friend: "What's that?"

Player: "I'm going to sit at home on my computer."

Friend: "You do that all the time anyway!"

You just gotta do it. You gotta say that this is the time I'm setting to role play, it's important, and I'm going to do it and agree to do nothing else. Friends want to go out? Nope. Girlfriend wants you to go shopping? Nope. Family want to spend time around the grill? Nope. Neighbor wants help? Nope. World needs saved? Sorry. Call Superman. I'm role playing!

From five to about ten, you're involved in a real commitment to real people doing a real thing.

It ain't easy! We all have different stuff we could be doing and almost everyone leads busy lives. No one has time! It takes making time. That means forcing open a time slot to role play once a week and giving it a high priority.

That's just how I look at it. It's what I had to do to lift weights. If I didn't set a super high priority on lifting, I'd never do it. There would always be something else to do.
