Topic: bragging on my child...
Subject: new bragging
We've been doing the baseball thing again, and my son has played very well, so I thought I'd update a year-old thread to brag some more.
In the first post in this thread, I metnioned how Caleb had a chance to be a dominant player in this league during his ten year old season, and that has proven to be true. If he isn't the best player in the entire league, he's certainly in the top three.
He has hit very consistently, and hit for power. For the first time in his life, he's been called upon to play shortstop in a fair number of innings (for those who do not know baseball, the shortstop is uaually the best defensive player on the team). He has been an elite pitcher - had a four inning, one hit game this past weekend.
Last night was his best offensive night ever. 4 for 4, with a single, two doubles, and a grand slam. The slam was especially huge since our team was down 10-5 at the time with two out. Those four runs put us right back in the game, and we went on to win.
Anyway, there's my bragging.

Subject: new comings and goings forum category
We've added a new category - Comings and Goings. Basically, this is a dedicated spot for people to introduce themselves, or to post those "sorry, I'm going to be away for a few days/weeks/months" threads.

Topic: RDINN Feature Updates/ Suggestions/ Bugs
Subject: PM folders
Alright, ya bunch of whiners, I have implemented private message folders. You'll notice the "add a folder" link under your "You are here -->> blah blah blah.... click here to view sent messages," etc.
Now, the PM folder has a dropdown box. Change it from Inbox to one of your newly added folders, and voila! You are there.
To move messages among folders, scroll down to the bottom of the page. The old mass delete option has been updated to a "move to folder" option. To delete, simply leave it on trash. To move to a new folder, pick the appropriate one from the dropdown.
Wanna kill a folder? Navigate to it and use the "delete folder" link that appears where "add a folder" goes in the regular inbox. If you goof up and delete a folder without moving the messages first, have no fear - they are simply returned to your main inbox.
You cannot delete your main inbox, no matter what you do, so don't even try, Grugg. 
There ya go, folks. Organize your PMs to your little heart's content.

Topic: some questions
Subject: answers!
1. I keep notepad docs with current hitpoints, quick reference on xp, and any assorted notes that I need. Once or twice, I've resorted to excel spreadsheets, but that is rare. I do keep full copies of character sheets in doc files.
2. I usually ask for 1-2 posts per week at a minimum in my games (though we never seem to keep to it). I do not set max post counts.
3. See #1.
4. Sure. Mostly for fun, but I do applaud good posts and smite moronic and/or intentionally cringeworthy ones.

It's his ship. Do realize that this is a military mission, and a military ship, during wartime. Science will be working mostly with tactical and such, I'd guess.

Topic: Star Trek: Charon Staff Fulfillment
Subject: absolutely
I know for a fact that we have room. I want to say that one of the vessels still needs a helmsman; I thin kthat CSO is open on both ships, and I know that the Cerberus needs a chief engineer (well, I think so).
There are other spots, too, I am certain.

Topic: What Games are You Planning?
Subject: Audalis
I'm predictable, no doubt. As soon as my Guiding Light adventure wraps up, I'll be launching another Audalis game.
I'd love to run a campaign, but it's seems a lot more condusive for my flaky self to stick to adventures only.

Topic: yet another movie thread...
Subject: I want this time restored to my life!
Last night, I sat down to watch a movie with my wife. She had DVRed Wicker Park. And to think, I could have watched four episodes of Golden Girls reruns in the same timespan! Or painted a wall and watched it do a lot of drying!
Yes, folks, it was that bad, and worse. The script was horifically choppy - if you like flashbacks, plot jumps, and scenes in a random, jumbled order (to the point that all sense of time's flow is meaningless), then you'll like this aspect of the movie. If you are sane, it will bother you to no end.
Basic premise of the movie: boy meets girl, falls in love. Girl moves to Europe for a job, but plans to return to her love after the end of the job run (she's a dancer). Girl's best friend falls in love with him, spends the next two years doing everything she can to keep the couple apart and poison all feelings they have for one another, so that she can swoop in and claim boy. Everyone involved in these two people's lives is hurt by this (boy, girl, stalker best friend girl, boy's best friend, boy's future fiancee who he has to drop once he realizes that girl did not abandon him like he thought).
Of course, it is nowhere near as clear as all of this until near the movie's end, since the scenes are, as stated, out of order, and shuffled even more from the varying perspectives of the characters.
I've seen this portrayed as a psycological thriller. Uh, yeah. Whatever. I will grant that it seems everyone in this film is obsessed, and that both boy and girl's best friend are probably mentally ill, but a thriller this is not. I'm angry at this movie. Send it to someone you don't like.

No free copy of the book, but yes, they are happy to sell me one. 
I'd post the poem, but it's her work, so that's up to her.

Topic: RDI T-shirts
Subject: golf shirts
Here are the two choices I have in golf shirts:
Men's Polo Tee
Sizes run small on these, order one size up for a looser fit. Available in black, white, and powder blue.
Men's Polo Shirt
Traditional polo shirt. Available in white or navy.
Let me know if you want any of the above, Vilyamar, and I'll create the product.

Topic: A Cold Day in Hell Q&A
Subject: okay
I have no issue with the pace of the game. If you think we need to go slow, we go slow. you can have everyone sit tight until Charlie hacks her way in, no worries.
Let me note that there are no "data disks" - I apologize if I have miscommunicated. There are video disks containing what would roughly correlate to security camera video, but any data will be on the server (unless, perhaps, it is stored somewhere away from teh main base computers?).

Topic: RDI T-shirts
Subject: lemme see
I can do the logo on the golf shirt. Let me check on the avatar of awesome idea... I want to say that to get that color shirt, you have to go with the heavier (i.e. more expensive) tees.
Edit: yep. Lightweight tees come in white, black, brown, khaki, ash, navy, and red.
Heavyweight are available in white, black, orange, purple, red, yellow, bright green, forest green, chocolate, burgundy, ash, royal blue, navy, natural, and sky blue. They also cost $4.00 more per shirt (I can probably wiggle that to $3.50 more).

Topic: The Guiding Light Q&A
Subject: nice interplay!
I like how you're handling the remifications of Varuna's faith, YeOlde. I'm not sure that he's 100% correct - the Audalis pantheon is not one of warm fuzziness - but I'm not sure that he's wrong, either. Either way, he's doing what he thinks is right, even when inconvenient, which is to be applauded.
Nice job!

Topic: RDI T-shirts
Subject: shirt stuff
I can do the 3XL shirt w/logo and your name on the back. It'll be $24.
The expenses come from the following:
3XL costs more to start with
Printing on both sides costs more
Printing a digital image AND text costs more
Let me know if you want me to do it. White text for the name?
As for the other... I'm afraid that design is too complicated, at least for now. Would need a good artist to do it in a vector format.

Topic: Continuing Where We Last Left Off Q&A
Subject: misunderstood?
Hey, I don't want to paint you badly. Let's take stock.
1. The mages are all but out of mana. Maye they could have been more conserving, but then again, most of our fights have been hard enough as is; we might be dead if not for their casting.
2. We've been repeatedly smacked down by the lackey villains. No reason to think that will stop now.
3. Arien is going mano y mano with a boss, and is getting it handed to him. Clearly outclassed and on the losing end, he has to hope for divine/DM intervention or a die rolling hot streak of legendary proportions. And the dice are ice cold of late.
I'm hoping the dragon from the silver screen moment is a positive thing, but something in me screams something about a frying pan and a fire.
So sure, I could see how the empirical evidence above is leading to you being misunderstood, Al.

Tann has informed me that with his new workload, he won't be able to continue in this game. Therefore, I'll be NPCing the paladin for the duration.

Subject: fooked, indeed!
Eyup, it would appear that Arien is well and truly fooked.
Doom and gloom? Duh? Outnumbered by foes that should beat us IF we're healthy. And since we've been getting it handed to us of late, yeah... doom and gloom it is.
*shrug** That's okay, though. Maybe Alloryn wins through and nukes the bugs. Or at least Arien's death counts for SOMETHING.
It's all good. Even if we die here, I want to reserve a spot in your next game, Al.
