I know what RPG stands for but what about MMO? I know the concept, I'm just wondering about the acronym.
Well, personally, I kind of want to slay the dragon.

MMO = Massively Multiplayer Online (hence the redundancy)
I'm quite familiar with the setting for Warhammer. I own both the first and second editions, but the third is a huge departure from a system standpoint. That was actually one of my favorite things about the setting. It's a bit like Call of Cthulhu in the sense that there are monsters out there, but you will seldom encounter one, and if you do your best course of action is to run like hell. No, the greatest evils you generally encounter are other people.

move out and draw fire
Exactly. And exactly on the huge departure which is the third edition. I like it, I do, but I think it takes an experienced gamer to manage it, and I find that it's harder to maintain the group hallucination.

Hey BSG gamers. I'm back from vacation and straight into landlord issues but I should know this week whether we will have to move. I will let you all know as soon as possible whether I can run the next game.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Sorry to hear about the landlord issues. Hope it gets worked out okay (and not just because I want to play BSG.)

Would you guys like to start playing and maybe have to take an indefinite break in two weeks or hold off until my housing situation solidifies?

My vote would be to wait until you get things taken care of, Laga. (Unless the game would be a welcome distraction.)

I wouldn't be able to join a game until after April 28th anyway.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I wouldn't be able to join until after I'm on the road. The next few weeks will be a bit chaotic.

Sounds like waiting is the consensus.
