What fun it was!
I came in early but work forced me away until almost everyone had finished!! (Damned work getting in the way at 4AM!!!)

When I logged on at the end Mike was just about the only one left - who proceeded to confirm my assumption that he was a thoroughly decent chap Very Happy

Keep dates and times posted - I'll be there if I can!

I don't start cursing you until the 2nd chat, earliest..... Wink

If Deimos is onboard, which I'm pretty sure he is, I think the Friday night chat should be a constant. Seems to be a good time for everyone to check in and say hi. Maybe start a little earlier this week, say 9 pm instead of 10 pm.....
We also had a lot of people on Saturday night, so check in either of those times if you want to get a taste of what it's like. Warning, it is addictive....! Thanks to Deimos for the new site, it's even nicer than the old one. cheers

Absolutely! I've placed it in the chat calendar so folks will remember. It "starts" at 9pm CST, though that's just an arbitrary time when people filter in.

If this doesn't work for some of you, feel free to post your own suggested meeting time, and don't forget the timezone. We can have more than one, and of course anyone can login whenever they wish!

There has been some interest in getting a game started on the chat. If you're interested in playing (or running) a game, please post the game type (D&D, AD&D, etc.) and recommended time. Keep those suggestions coming!

I'm working on a special command to do "4d6 drop lowest", as that's a popular method of ability score generation, but it might take a while. Wink

Ok, that was way easier than I thought!

Use: /roll 4 6 drop

Example Output:
----> CenStage rolls 4 6-sided dice. The lowest die, 1, is dropped. The results are: 6, 5, 4 = 15

Whoops! The days are flying by too fast!!!! Reminder, tonight is the weekly Acaeum chat, starting at 9 pm and going until midnight or thereabouts. Hope to see all the regulars and a few new faces. I'll be there after the nightly workout! (Yes, the nightly workout....when you are 5'8 and weigh 250 you need to have a nightly workout....)

I'm still in the early stages of putting something together....first would be a "test" dungeon to just make sure it would work properly. Probably Basic D&D (because very few rules to worry about) but maybe my homebrew system. Dungeon would be a classic (B series, etc) with some changes. But I would recommend a classic JG item for you Shane...it would fit perfectly, and maybe someone would be introduced to the wonders of the Guild. How about Treasure Maps products? All three have some great adventures that aren't too in depth. Tegel Manor would be a blast.

I guess in all the excitement, I kind of forgot about tonight...

It's Friday night, let's chat!

I probably won't be on until later (dinner with the wife). For everyone else, Acaeum members typically start showing up around 8-9 central US time. Usually runs until midnight. Check it out!

shattered adj. The word "shattered" in the UK can mean either extremely tired or emotionally devastated. You could be shattered by the death of your dear mother or a good invigorating jog. Experiencing both simultaneously would leave you shattered in two different ways at once, and probably reasonably cross.

Man this site is so useful: http://english2american.com/index.html#index

Yes, please do! It's a lot of fun -- kind of like a mini-con every Friday/Saturday night. It starts somewhere around 8-9 pm CST, and ends when everyone gets tired. Very Happy

We've got a couple of games beginning, though I don't know exact times and if there are any slots left available. Those running them, please let people know.

If you're interested in running a game, just do it. You usually won't require any assistance on my behalf.

We may one day get an auction going. There's a room dedicated to auctions -- discussing them, running them, etc. So when the next big rare is on the block, drop by with some popcorn and watch the final minutes with the competition, if you like. Wink
