old 2014 - Scheduling game sessions

Time to start a thread for scheduling game sessions for Adventures in Homebrew World AD&D 2E. When do you guys want to play in general? I'd like to try to go at least weekly for a while, but doesn't have to always be the same day or time, but generally later afternoons, evening & night are best. Possibly mid-day on some days. I'm available on this Sunday & Monday pretty much any time (JULY 13-14), if you guys can play those days let me know. Can't do Friday-Saturday this weekend or next weekend.

Sunday, about 12-6, and Monday 7-6 is good for me.

From now on we will use this thread to schedule. Sunday and Monday Ryan mentioned are good for me, though probably start play around 2PM or 3PM and go up until his cut-off time of 6PM. Let's wait and see what Craig says too. Then I will confirm back.

### Sunday pending... duo game or possible solo Sanvar ### Slickety, that's great, anything's fine. I understand if you can't or get pulled away on Sunday, for your wife / family reasons. I mean I'm just trying to not be the bad guy on the internet that spoiled wifey time, so don't get us in trouble. I would like to keep a casual but steady pace and game when it's convenient. ### Weds maybe 2pm-6pm range? ### Wednesday is good. I have night plans and need to go offline around 6pm too, matching Slickety. Preferring to play in the afternoon (my brain is not thinking D&D in the mornings, and I like to bang out some work in the mornings). Something like Noon or 2PM would be a good start, 3PM at the latest to start. Going for 2-4 hours is cool. ### Monday afternoon Sanvar solo? ### Monday is now Ryan's choice (and same for Sunday afternoon, still pending Slickety). My request is go ahead and play a little Sanvar solo material on Monday afternoon, without Slickety, and start it on Sunday too is fine with me! Ryan can write up the events in a story that Slickety can read, and that way Slickety won't really miss anything & won't spend as much time listening to another Player's solo introductions. I can run more encounters for the lizardman this way and XP up, and I have several scenarios in mind already. Playing with just the 2 people does not bother me, if it's fine with Ryan as well. In the longrun the PC's will be together and this won't be routine, but for now it would be appropriate for the game-play. ### Slickety co-GM ### Slickety DM'ing, I am eager to try that as well. Considering I've already got several ideas lined-up for Sanvar & Django, I'm more gung-ho about continuing to DM myself when we can get together, and making Django-Sanvar the central focus for the next several weeks, but also willing to let Craig DM sometimes. I agree that putting some of the Henchman's adventures under your GM'ing, in the same setting & time, would be a cool tie-in. Also I think that next time we have 3 of us present in the Gypsy grasslands, Ryan can play some of Django's henchman, so we share participation better. (By the way, Django, you will find that your current fellow-gypsy escorts don't want to go beyond that river into the Dragon Run area.... so you'll be needing another guide or escort who knows the land, for the next big section after you get to the Jackyl Gypsys camp in the Northern section of the grasslands... we'll talk about all this again in-game...). Also I will happily give you the same maps to use. However I think that you should launch your own Roll20 Campaign and upload the same map on your account, and remake the settings. If I make you a co-GM on the current campaign, then you would see all kinds of GM secrets that Django shouldn't know about yet, and some scenarios could be spoiled.

Good Point, I will look into that and I am all for letting you run with this for awhie. :) It will give me plenty of time to piece together an entertaining run and etc .. I am good for wed game and what time will it be tomorrow?

Slickety Pickens said: I am good for wed game and what time will it be tomorrow? Sunday ending by 6PM... Start goal of 2PM, however stalling until 3PM is okay (in advance, for all 3 of us... I'm excusing myself til 3pm if I'm running late. Gonna try to be online by 2PM tho, so start checking then if you can, Ryan said he can).

okay I am game for 3pm .. that will give you time to do what you need and if you find ryan online before I get here you can start running him and I will join by 3pm.

Thanks for the status updates. No problem either way. I'll be on starting between 2-3Pm & have some things ready for either PC. All good.

What time on Monday? I'll probably have this open all day tomorrow.

Ryan G. said: What time on Monday? I'll probably have this open all day tomorrow. If you keep it open, I'll get on as soon as I can, after plowing through some work mails and such. It will definitely be NOON or later, I posted earlier about 2PM but can probably be on sooner. The campaign almost came to a screeching halt today when Django saw the bright light and went to the other side. A female bugbear whapped him with a mace. Fortunately the herbally trained Ranger stabalized him and brought him back from the brink. So thanks to the ranger henchman, game is still continuing... Hopefully Slickety will post some of his story notes, in the other thread later (50 XP riding on it Craig).

I may not be at my computer before 2pm, but I'll be in the game.

My apologies for yesterday. My internet went down completely.

Oh, ok, I was wondering. My internets cut out at the same time too, but I was back on 5 minutes later. Playing again on Wednesday same-times, if you're on. Slickety planning to play.

Yep I'll be there, having a tooth pulled at 11 am so I might sound a little funny but still planning on being there at 2 like planned.

I am available whenever at this moment, had to reschedule appointment.

Scheduled to play this week Tuesday 22nd, meet around 2pm... Sanvar ryan Weds. 23rd, meet around 2pm... Django slickety Still looks good for you?

I was just about to message you, I did not click as to the date that wed fell on till yesterday. I am headed to florida on the 23rd and will not be back till the 28th. will have to play a little catch up I would guess but tentatively next wed for me if thats okay.

I'm good for today.

Ryan, I'll be ready to play today. Slickety, no problem, so No game for this Wednesday (unless Ryan and I decide to keep going then). I can use the time anyway. Next wednesday (30th) is good so I put that on my calendar for 2pm.

Sorry about this. Last minute change. I have to take my brother to his orthodontist at about 2 today. Don't know how long it'll take, but I can play tomorrow at 2pm definitely.

Alright, would have liked to know sooner since you confirmed it earlier in the same day, but so be it. Last minute change like you said. Try to summon me with Skype beep if you get home today. On Wednesday I've got evening plans so I'll have to log off at some point, probably can play from about 2 to 4 or 4:30.

Played today w Ryan. Slickety is out of town on vacation for several more days. Ryan would you have any time(s) to play on Thursday-Friday this week (24th-25th)? I probably can fit in some play in the afternoons (usual times) or evenings if you say you can. Next Tuesday (29th) is also ok if you want to book it? Next Wednesday (30th) is scheduled with Slickety.

I don't think so. I'm doing some teaching these next two days. I'm not totally sure on the time for that at the moment.

Got it. Any thoughts yet on Tuesday 29th? Beep me on Skype if you get time for a shorter XP-award meeting on the days in the interim.

I think I'll be pretty open on Tuesday. Nothing scheduled yet, I'll try to keep it open.

Hey I'm back, still on for Wed? What time?

Ryan, sorry I missed you Tuesday (today). I'd already gone off to the park because it was such a nice day and was out when you called. I hadn't added a game-time on my calendar since we were kind of vague about it. Slickety, we can play tomorrow indeed. Wednesday 2pm would work for me, Ok? Ryan will probably join us.

sounds good

Either player on for today? Been waiting alone in the game room since 2:00. I'll keep checking back. There are adventures awaiting either PC. EDIT: Slickety arrived

Upcoming session scheduled with Slickety for Wednesday Aug. 6th, the usual afternoon times. (2pm). Ryan let me know what works for you? I can book an adventure session (if we firm it up) for Sun 3rd, Mon 4th, Tues 5th, and if you can join us for Weds 6th.

Sorry about being absent. I had no access to internet for the past few days due to multiple events all strung along in a very disagreeable manner.

I'm good either Monday or Tuesday, though I may have to get up from time to time to deal with children.

Ok. I've been waiting. Do you prefer Monday or Tuesday or both this week? How about shooting for both, with reduced time each day (accounting for interruptions and such)? I can play around 2pm Monday (Sanvar), 2pm Tuesday (Sanvar), 2pm Wednesday (Django).

Ryan on skype said Yes for this Tuesday (2pm). No for today (Monday). Slickety, plan for Wednesday. Both you guys --- can post new stories for new XP bonuses. Add to the "Story so far" thread. One paragraph about your previous adventures, or an illustration or picture from Google Images, will do the trick. If you play again without posting last week's story, you can still post the story later but you are skipping 1 opportunity to earn the bonus. You are leaving XP on the table.

Today is Monday. I can play Tuesday.

Hehe, Fixed the days. So we are on for tomorrow (Tuesday 2pm). I'll look for you then! Wednesday 2pm with Slickety.

Next Tuesday Aug 12, 2pm Ryan/ Lizardman Sanvar Next Wednesday Aug 13, 2pm Slickety/ Bard Django

almost Game time I'll be ready by 2:30. Getting ready

Would you like to play 2E AD&D in "Adventures in a homebrew world" on Tuesday this week? How about Wednesday? What times can you play (it would be approximately mid-day to afternoon in Central USA times).

I can do Tuesday or Wednesday, both work. It seems I'm 7 hours ahead of Central US time, which would put my time to end at about 4pm your time. Can start as early as noon, your time. Probably even earlier than that, but that probably doesn't help us much.

@ Fishy Let's schedule this Wednesday (i.e. tomorrow/today) playing for 1PM my time (that's probably 8pm your time). It will be a shorter session so we can go for about 2 hours, maybe 2.5, ending before your stated end time. Introductory. I can try to make Noon-hour like we started today if you happen to be online early, but probably more like 1:00 PM so I will look for you then. As I'm still researching your Character to learn some Diplomatic possibilities, I've got some prep-work ahead of me to get some possible scenarios and towny-environs arranged for your PC to go exploring diplomatically. This is part of the fun in getting started and playing collaboratively. My setting, your character ideas. We are both getting introduced. I feel under-prepared, like I'm putting your PC in an undeveloped foggy world, but I feel that it's good to wing-it for tomorrow, learn more about your PC, and I can proceed to prep more for the followup game session in response to player input this week. There is PLENTY of material we can develop for the Mage Diplomat. Copy-paste your PC's backstory into this thread, please, Fishy: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/982880/pc-backgr" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/982880/pc-backgr</a>... @ Ryan, if you're around, come and join us! Or post about another time you can play this. "Adventures in a Homebrew World" 2E, DM Gold.

That's quite fine. As far as quests and stuff for my guy are concerned, I don't think you'd have to go too far out of your way to think up something different. It's more like he will deal with whatever problems he finds by other means than direct and brute force. Mostly because he would suck at that. It would not necessarily have to be all non-combat, but if there was a bandit camp that needed getting rid off, this is not something he'd do all by himself, he'd be more likely to support a local militia in doing so, casting spells from the second ranks and stuff.

@ Fishy, Next game Session Tuesday (Sept 9).... starting as soon as I can after 12 Noon (Chicago USA time). It might be more like 1:00 PM my time. I know you might be able to do it even earlier than my start time, and what I want to say is, I don't expect to be ready for D&D before Noon but if I can get free of other duties then I will look for you on Skype / Roll20 as soon as I can that day. Just reply and confirm that this coming Tuesday looks good for you. It's pretty casual, but I like to confirm that you intend to play that day. I'll prepare for the session. @ Ryan please come back with Sanvar! There is a lot of adventure in store for your PC, and meeting up with Fishy. -- GM Gold, AD&D 2E Adventures In A Homebrew World.

Sure, Tuesday works fine for me (barring natural disasters or an invasion of rabbid lemmings).

next session coming up in like 14 hours or so from now, Weds Sep 17. Fishy ! Jack can join in also if you're around or observe and meet Fishy.

I'll see if I can jump on a little after noon. I'll have to get off around three.

On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I'm usually good until 3 o'clock.

Ok, Ryan. Come at 12:15 today and meet Fishy (Player with a Tall Gnome), and Jack (new Player working on a female Elf PC). It is Fishy's play time and his PC is on a boat. When we manage to plan a firm day to play together, we will aim for getting the party members together, but for now, the PC's are soloing around their origin areas.

Adventures game session is scheduled for Tuesday around Noon my-time.. Count-down time is posted on main game page. Come one, come all. Fishy scheduled this session with me. The others would be welcomed to attend or quite possibly meet up and join together if you're ready for that sort of party scenario. It will be interesting to find out which way each Player wants to go next.
