This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Thanks GM :) And yes that makes a lot more sense than just straight rank numbers.

yes I am Angelique :)

So, I made a login on Obsidian Portal, Marilith.  And then this goatkiller action here.  Should I change this one, or make a character over there?

Also, on By Design, I'm Kierenne.  But I'm better now.

Whatever you prefer. The game will be run here. The Portal was an easy way for me to wiki things up. I know I could use it for more but doubt I will take the time to learn.

Gavken - still looking into having restricted access pages. Seems you can have't figured out how yet :)

Hope everyone is enjoying the process. Once again if you are not about something then please ask :)

Hope to have Characters complete by tomorrow leaving the weekend for a few questions and start on Monday.

Mwahhahhhahh . . . Evil Laugh evil Laugh evil Laugh }:-0

Ok GM, e-mailed you the character :) Will go into more detail when I have a private forum thread somewhere to post it on. Should that prove impossible I will give you access to a myth-weavers forum and let you see a thread I will make there for her.

If you are not going to run the game on Obsidian Portal then I would suggest looking at using Encylodpedia Infernalis. Goatkiller owns the board and can set it up for you to have all GM privilege in game. It has internal mails, an attached Wiki to the game and you can run different threads for all the different characters in the forums. Oh and all the characters can have their own private forums they can post stuff up that they and the GM only can see.

I'll go over and take a look, Gavken thanks.

I'll take it up with the group. PbP here would be limited. I am willing to do it somewhere else as long as everything can be in one place.


So what do you think?

I'll leave it to you and Goatkiller to talk. He can set everything up there if you decide to do it.

Definitely in favour of moving to a properly customisable forum :)

Quote from: Artifacts of Amber;781633Looks interesting but seems though i signed up I can't see nothin :)

A little competition may help challenge me and not get lazy :)
I believe you now have to pm Kevin to prove you're still not a bot, some nonenglish trolls found a way to spam ads there. Then he will give you normal access.

Got my character set up now, am looking forward to finalizing the auction and getting the competition started.

Aurore

I replied to the invitation mail you sent me. thinking about it that was probably a mail from obsidian lol. Where do you want me to send it?
