I know that -t is at at a concert right now, so this probably won't be resolved until tomorrow, but everyone else should feel free to send COs for interrupts and contributions to the skill check. Even with an open check, that can sometimes speed things along.

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

Ok. Negative destiny isn't a surprise, thankfully it's a pretty weak one.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I will say that, for billytea's emails alone, being GM is worth the trouble.
It did help in the darkest days. Almost as good of e-mails as when he's actually GMing!

Not BSG.

Sunday night has turned into family game night at Chez Raq. Last week the DH ran Mal and me through Mal's first-ever D&D game. It was a big hit.

Last night we played several races of Formula De. I find it a pretty boring game, but it's perfect for a 5yo boy.

Ok Doc, bear in mind that if we reach 8, then someone can play a Declare Emergency. I can do my part getting us there; can you do yours?
