Note to Omnis and billytea: Because of all the game talk in Natter yesterday, I finally caved and bought my own copy of BSG. It should arrive Thursday.

Ooh, toasters for everyone! And they come in twelve different models.
Dibs on a #8??

Well if MW has a game now, then we really need to ramp up the idea of restarting. I'm hesitant to GM, but I don't want BT to GM, as he really deserves to finally PLAY! Is anyone else willing to GM? BT has found a rather cool OpenOffice document that helps a ton. Anyone? Bueller?

Huh. Wow. Those crickets sure are loud. Nice to see I'm not the only chicken one to GM, just the only one willing to admit it in public.

Soooo? Anyone wanting to GM a BSG game?

Our wings are not tired

I'd love to participate but I won't even be in town for most of the next 6 weeks so I can't even play, let alone GM. I won't have another window to play until August most likely.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm not even sure I should play since I'll be moving at the end of the month but I'm pretty sure I'll still be able to log in once a day.

Maybe I'm coming at this the wrong way. Do we have enough interest to hold a game?

If another game starts in August then I'll play. I won't have time to GM, but I'd be able to play. Depending upon a couple of schedule things I might be able to run a game that started in late October.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I'm in for a game. I'd prefer to play, but in about a week or so I'll be done with exams for the semester and could probably run a game.

bt, I really want you to play. You certainly deserve it. I'll man up and GM it. If we have enough players. The students leave this week. The week after next I might be busy in a week long seminar, but should have nights free.

Obviously, I'm up for it. It looks like I don't have a business trip coming up. I'm happy to wait a week or so.

I could probably GM next time, once I've played here once.

Well. That's two. We need at least four, right?
