This game is being moved. Should be restarting in a week or so if all goes well.

Posted: **Tue Jul 28, 2009 2:13 pm**

Present.

Posted: **Fri Jul 31, 2009 7:10 pm**

Oh, that little buggar tried to stiff us! If we do manage to nab this ghost, I'm going to bring it back to his house and set it free.

Posted: **Sun Aug 02, 2009 10:22 pm**

You might call it absentmindedness. He was sleepy you know

Posted: **Wed Aug 19, 2009 7:26 am**

I guess we're all set. for those of you that don't know how to use a spoiler button:

Posted: **Thu Sep 17, 2009 10:33 pm**

Roll call!

So who's still in this?

Posted: **Fri Sep 18, 2009 2:36 am**

Posted: **Sat Sep 19, 2009 7:22 pm**

Yeah, I thought you were still playing. I'm sure cearlan is still with us, I have some rather dim suspicions about the other two. Am I doing something wrong here? let me know, please.

Posted: **Sun Sep 20, 2009 12:49 pm**

No ... nothing wrong that I can see. Maybe they were just growing tired of waiting and joined some other game in the interim that takes up their time? I don't know. People like that never made any sense to me. I mean ... GMs go through a lot of effort planning and preparing to run a game. The least the prospective players can do is be patient and advise of any change of plans. Some people are just rude and figure the whole world revolves around them.

You really should try to keep a list of email addresses for your players so if they stop coming to this site, you can still contact them and ask them what's up.

Posted: **Tue Sep 29, 2009 9:52 am**

This game will be resuming after October 11. I have National Lacrosse Team tryouts on my head. Sorry guys.

Posted: **Wed Sep 30, 2009 5:01 pm**

No problem. Good luck.

Posted: **Sat Oct 10, 2009 10:20 pm**

Looking forwards to the resumption tomorrow - I hope the try-outs were good!

Posted: **Sun Oct 11, 2009 2:25 am**

Ditto. Still present... waiting to smash some ectoplasm out of some ghosties.

Posted: **Wed Nov 04, 2009 6:04 pm**

Sorry, I needed some time off from everything. Tryouts went great, we lost to Latvia 2:16 but I made the cut, so all seems good.

I'll look for new recruits now. Hope you guys are still with me.

Posted: **Wed Nov 04, 2009 6:44 pm**

Haven't gone anywhere personally... I'm like a fungus... hard to get rid of.

Posted: **Thu Nov 05, 2009 1:42 pm**

That you are Sir

We'll probably have Gaffer playing Karl. Welcome aboard!

Posted: **Thu Nov 05, 2009 3:59 pm**

Welcome aboard indeed... glad to have someone who's still got a pulse running a character or two around here.

Posted: **Thu Nov 05, 2009 9:10 pm**

Mayhaps Take Solo will join with the right motivation. I hope to finish his solo adventure soon.

Posted: **Thu Nov 05, 2009 11:00 pm**

Thanks for the welcome.

I've posted my version of Karl Werner in Dramatis Personae.

So what's the plan to get rolling again? Are we going to just pick up in the restaurant where Karl is horning in on the job in place of Crigler? Or will we presume that he was at the party and at Kohlberger's(?) house and has all the same background as Dan and Pearl?

Posted: **Mon Nov 09, 2009 11:07 am**

no, we're picking up where we left off. Karl got a hint from his friend who was at the party and had a blasting headache in the morning, asked Karl to fill in for him. We'll get rolling as soon as I have my coffee

Posted: **Tue Nov 10, 2009 1:46 pm**

Introducing Andy in the role of Calum Childs! We'll be rolling soon.

Posted: **Tue Nov 10, 2009 7:00 pm**

Welcome new blood. So far, there's been nothing hair-raising to mention, so this is a great time to jump in.

Posted: **Thu Nov 12, 2009 12:04 pm**

Wife has today and tomorrow off, so I'll be in guerilla mode. I'll try to post when I get a chance. Don't want her mad

Should be programming my Masters thesis... see you guys in a bit.

Posted: **Fri Nov 13, 2009 1:23 am**

Greetings all! I'm taking over Calum and am looking forward to starting. I'm a big CoC fan and very long time player, and occassional PBEMer. I'm actually posting from Adelaide, SA, Australia, so suspect I am on the other side of the world from most of you, which means day is night and night is day as far as likely posting time are concerned...

Cheers,

Andy

Posted: **Mon Nov 16, 2009 12:56 pm**

Let's get this show on the road. Let me know if you guys want to split up or what, where you're going and I'll teleport you there.

Edit: Let your characters discuss it of course.

Posted: **Mon Nov 16, 2009 2:45 pm**

Yeah, I think we're gonna split up ... the people who are good at research will go to city hall to do some deed checks and try to find floor plans and neighbor information surrounding the house, and the others who aren't so keen on research (myself included) will go to the store to buy provisions.

If there are any provisions that anyone thinks is worthwhile, please post your list now.

Posted: **Tue Nov 17, 2009 9:55 am**

Right, I'm obviously in the remedial class for making font colours work. Any tips? Will give it another crack...
Test

Test

Posted: **Tue Nov 17, 2009 1:13 pm**

easiest way is to just write all you want to write in the post and then select the portion you want in a different color and click the color.

I edited your post, check out what it looks like via the edit button. the font color #000000 isn't really necessary there as it's default, but I left it anyway.

Posted: **Wed Nov 18, 2009 9:43 am**

Ah ha! Wakarimashita!

Posted: **Wed Nov 18, 2009 11:27 am**

you got me there...

Posted: **Thu Nov 19, 2009 7:04 am**

Soory, being silly, is Japanese for "understood", more or less.

Posted: **Mon Nov 23, 2009 1:32 pm**

Lol, sorry for the mixup

My bad

Continue now.

Posted: **Sat Dec 05, 2009 4:25 pm**

Heya...

I noticed that my character has no possessions listed. I'm pretty sure I picked some out, but it must have been posted over on darkandmoodyforums.com.

Bummer. Does this mean I'm naked?

Posted: **Mon Dec 07, 2009 12:41 pm**

Well you're the one that hass access to the D&M forums archive. did you toss it? I might have that stuff in a PM or sth.

This game is rolling rather slowly. I hope you guys don't mind.

Posted: **Mon Dec 07, 2009 1:38 pm**

We're looking for a post over at City Hall so we can continue.

Posted: **Mon Dec 07, 2009 4:00 pm**

My games are slower than yours.

Yeah, I think that board is long gone.

Posted: **Mon Dec 07, 2009 7:19 pm**

Gaffer wrote:We're looking for a post over at City Hall so we can continue.

Both me and Karl have posted our library use rolls, what are you looking / waiting for?

Posted: **Sun Dec 13, 2009 1:34 am**

I will be away from home all this next week, and internet access where I am bound is absolutly pants - i.e. non-existant. I will post if I possibly can, though I reckon it will be unlikely.

See you around the 18th / 19th

Norm

Posted: **Mon Dec 14, 2009 5:37 pm**

Summing up:

ImpInTraining has two Good Karma Points which can be used at his discretion. If you fail a critical roll that's in spoiler territory, you can ask him to spend one to get an automatic success.

For Karls rash behavior in the hall of records, I grant myself a Bad Karma Point which I can use at my discretion to make heads roll

keep that in mind. It can be overridden with Good Karma, and vice versa.

Oh, and your character sheets are sparkling and drawn up. As a reminder, I will post them to you if survive. If you die, I'll burn it, if you go mad I will think of something vile

Posted: **Mon Dec 14, 2009 9:10 pm**

I'm taking bids for my karma points. Go to Ebay...

Posted: **Mon Dec 14, 2009 11:08 pm**

Gentlemen. Quick poll:
a. I roll the DICE for all rolls as soon as I feel the need for them and post all the information as soon as it is revealed by the dice
b. we use invisiblecastle, I request rolls, no partisans, don't roll if you're not asked to, "I want to try to Fast Talk" is OK but roll only after I give the green light

I choose "a" as I don't feel like waiting for reactions to my "roll for Library use" requests which will be mandatory if we go with "b" and secondly I like rolling dice, it makes the game more pleasant. you?

Till I am overruled, we stick with "a".

Andy, I'm waiting for your move before we go on in the Supplies thread.

As a reminder, I'm usually offline on weekends. If I disappear for over a week, PM me, I will be notified.

Posted: **Mon Dec 14, 2009 11:13 pm**

a. is fine with me, but sometimes I might forget.

Posted: **Tue Dec 15, 2009 7:40 am**

a. is definitely fine with me too. - Andy

Posted: **Tue Dec 15, 2009 6:52 pm**

Being naturally quite lazy, I'm all for 'a'.

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 12:12 pm**

Everybody already has a passed skill roll, so I guess my dice aren't that bad

till the time comes of course

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 3:13 pm**

It's only when we could die from the roll that they betray us. This is just a false feeling of security.

Say... BTW - I should note now that I intend on taking vacation between Christmas and New Years. No telling if I will have the opportunity to post while on the road. So you may have to NPC me if I'm holding things up.

Posted: **Thu Dec 17, 2009 10:05 am**

No problem. I might not have time either. If there's just one of us posting during holidays, then we'll take a break.

Posted: **Sat Dec 19, 2009 2:58 am**

I'm actually going to be home holidaying (cheapass that I am) so have no problem continuing to post, except when the Xmas Pudding gets too much. (Xmas in Australia involves way over-eating European style cooked 3 course lunches on what is invariably a quite hot day. Enjoy the snow, all you EU folks.)

Posted: **Tue Dec 29, 2009 6:00 pm**

We shall resume come New Year. I gotta run. Sorry for the standup.

Posted: **Wed Jan 06, 2010 11:33 am**

Once I get a list of supplies, we can move on to the men meeting in front of the City Hall. Let's call it luck, shall we.

In general, Pearl will be going through the stacks of papers for some time yet, it wouldn't be a bad idea to finish up there first before splitting up again. It isn't a bad place to look

But there's a lot to search through, so it'll take time.

Posted: **Wed Jan 13, 2010 9:19 am**

OK. All the weird and hectic stuff in life is over for now. Time to get back to the spirit of things. Let's have a great 2010 everyone and finish this year

Posted: **Tue Jan 19, 2010 4:31 pm**

That death scene for Helen makes Marcus sound like the bad guy. Nevermind the fact that he was yanking people up left and right who couldn't even climb a stinkin' ladder... and nevermind the fact that someone was shooting at Helen to take her out of her misery... but she wasn't even by the ladder. I think the zombies were closer.

Posted: **Wed Jan 20, 2010 4:43 am**

I think you posted this in the wrong forum. If you're talking about the Death Toll blurb in Zombie Apocalypse, I can see what you mean. I did say that "certain men" were to blame for butting ahead of her, but I'll go ahead and edit it to name them - Ho and Victor. They were the ones who pushed ahead of her to save their own skins, and Victor is even more to blame for Helen's death. He was the one who shot at her instead of the one and only zombie that had grabbed her. If he had taken it out, she might still have escaped on her turn. Of course, he missed the shot anyway. What Marcus did do was pull the ladder up (with Victor on it) and leave Helen trapped in the storeroom. The zombies were not between her and the ladder; she was closer to it and could have reached it ahead of the zombies, though the zombies would not have been far behind. She might still have made it out through the vent had it not been for some terrible luck on her part. She might also have failed to get up the ladder had Marcus left it there.

Posted: **Wed Jan 20, 2010 3:01 pm**

Not to mention ... get a few zombies on there, and none of us would have been able to pull up the ladder.

It wasn't bad luck all on her part. Victor had well more than his share of bad luck taking up several rounds as he kept slipping on the wet ladder.

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2010 11:35 am**

Can you guys take this someplace else please

Or am I the only one with the rights to move the posts?

Posted: **Thu Jan 21, 2010 5:56 pm**

Yeah, sorry ... don't know why I posted it in The Haunting ...

I'm done tho.

Posted: **Tue Jan 26, 2010 11:09 am**

Seeing as we're missing two players, PM's are being sent. We will continue without them if needs be. I'm guessing you're all off to dinner now anyway.

Posted: **Tue Jan 26, 2010 8:17 pm**

Roger that boss. Let me know if you need replacements. I might be able to drudge up someone interested.

Posted: **Tue Jan 26, 2010 9:40 pm**

Let's give them a day or two. I'm quite sure Cearlan will pop up. We may need to replace Andy(as I see he hasn't been online lately), but I've just finished with TakeSolo over in the One Shot Theatre so maybe he'll fill in if Andy's a no-show.

Posted: **Tue Jan 26, 2010 10:05 pm**

Sorry - I thought there was a reason you sent me from the room, so I was waiting for the next command!

You all catch up with Pearl on the steps outside

Posted: **Wed Jan 27, 2010 10:09 am**

Alrighty

Sorry for the mixup. Next time if you want to contradict or add to my moves of your character, speak up and I'll rewind

I'll send you any future findings via PM and try not to assume too much about your decisions.

Posted: **Sun Jan 31, 2010 1:41 am**

Hi guys, sorry, got a bit vague on checking this game after the whole Xmas / New Year slow down. I am here and will be a tad more loquatious hence forth, ah, assuming I can slot back in? Calum appears to have become an NPC... - Andy

Posted: **Mon Feb 01, 2010 9:05 am**

Well I usually NPC if someone's away long. Call your move and welcome back

Posted: **Thu Feb 04, 2010 6:43 pm**

What's going on?

Posted: **Wed Feb 24, 2010 11:04 am**

I'll take the time and explain the Spoiler button thingy

It works like this:
[ Spoiler-Button ]button text COMMA hidden text[ / Spoiler-Button ]
So the name of the button comes first, a comma like this one "," separates it from the hidden text. Easy peasy

So it would look like this:

Posted: **Fri Feb 26, 2010 3:50 pm**

Interesting thing about the word 'lunatic'. Seems long ago, they used to believe that insanity was affected by phases of the moon. Thus, a 'lunatic' was someone who was afflicted with "moon madness". I wonder if the history of werewolves was somewhat related with the word.

Posted: **Fri Mar 05, 2010 3:24 am**

Happy GM's Day! And thanks for this.

Posted: **Thu Mar 11, 2010 3:42 pm**

Sorry guys, I'll move this along tomorrow!

Posted: **Wed Mar 17, 2010 9:51 am**

What's wrong with Shirley? too cliche?

Posted: **Thu Apr 15, 2010 11:41 pm**

I apologise for the lack of posting recently but I haave been having computer problems that have involved two reformats of my HD and subsequent loss of everything on here, programmes files the lot. But I seem to be getting on top of it now - just have to re-download & reinstall it all again <sigh>

Also, I shall be away from a computer from tomorrow until the 2nd May so could you NPC my character please

Cheers,

Norm

Posted: **Fri Apr 16, 2010 9:31 am**

Will do. Take care and good luck.

Posted: **Fri May 07, 2010 8:16 pm**

Long story short, I now have a daughter

It may take me some time to adjust, bare with me please. I know we haven't been sprinting through the story lately, But I think we have a rather comfortable pace. I'll post the new topic early next week if you all want to go to the house.

Posted: **Fri May 07, 2010 10:06 pm**

Congratulations! My own daughter is 24 now and has been a constant joy to me. I wish you all the best.

Posted: **Sat May 08, 2010 6:33 am**

Congrats on the daughter, zielonobrody.

Posted: **Wed May 12, 2010 9:05 am**

Big congrats!! Welcome to the world of sleep deprivation...

Posted: **Wed May 19, 2010 12:06 pm**

Here's a heads up.

I'll be away from Friday morning 5/21 until Tuesday evening 5/25.

I'm going to New Haven Connecticut to see my daughter get her master's degree from Yale University.

Posted: **Mon May 24, 2010 10:05 am**

Oh my word... It's hard to get organized with all this crying around the house! I hope you guys forgive my absence. I think I've managed to sort everything for now, I'll try to get things moving.

Posted: **Mon May 24, 2010 1:28 pm**

No worries on my account... I'll still be here.

Posted: **Mon May 24, 2010 9:32 pm**

I'll be NPCing Pearl as I was asked to by Cearlan.

Posted: **Tue Jun 01, 2010 3:19 am**

Team, with an uncharacteristic burst of activity, I've copied the various clues we've uncovered into the clues folder. Hope I haven't missed anything. Oh Keeper my keeper, hope you don't mind.

As far as I can recall, everyone knows about all the clues at the moment?

Posted: **Fri Jun 04, 2010 9:34 pm**

Thanks Andy, I'm sure it'll prove very handy.

Posted: **Fri Jun 11, 2010 12:02 am**

OK people, time to let you all know what is going on here at Chez Logan.

I was away on a course at the back end of April when totally out the blue, and with no prior incidents - either personally or in the family I suffered a series of seizures, bad enough to hospitalise me for a week. There is a 2 1/2 day period where I have no recollection at all about anything. Add to this I have blanks in my memory which I am hoping are only temporary.

Now they completed all manner of tests, lumbar puncutures, Electro Encephelogram (sp? - EEG anyway) numerous x-rays, scans, drips and 1000 and 1 other things. The end result being that they found nothing wrong with me.

This is worrying in the extreme as my job revolves around remembering stuff at a fairly complex level, and I am growing more and more concerned about this. Enough to say that for the time being Roleplaying is on the back burner for me, sorry about that, but I hope you understand the concerns I have presently. Add to that I have some major life changes about to happen then like Hasturs gaze falls upon the Earth periodically, then my gaze haas fallen elsewhere for the time being.

Sorry to mess you all around - I will be back!

Posted: **Fri Jun 11, 2010 11:20 am**

Best wishes.

Posted: **Sun Jun 13, 2010 6:52 am**

Cearlan, terribly sorry to hear that. It must be frustrating for you, and a bit frightening I'm sure. Funny to think that we have been (as a society) going at human biology wholeheartedly for quite a long time and still don't know everything about our bodies, particularly our brain.

Hey, just out of curiousity, did it happen April 20th?

Posted: **Tue Jun 15, 2010 7:13 am**

Feel better soon! More holidays I say! - Andy

Posted: **Tue Jun 15, 2010 5:40 pm**

I'm off toward Origins Game Fair Sunday June 20 and won't be back until Tuesday June 29. Not much chance I'll post during that time.

Then I'll be at the beach over the weekend of the 4th. Might have internet connection, but doubtful.

Posted: **Fri Jun 25, 2010 11:49 am**

Diapers diapers diapers!!!! Or was that supposed to be Hastur? Dang! Someone called the wrathe of the Diapers on me... I'll be posting fridayish from now, to keep the story going. I might get a chance some other days, but that's doubtful.

Cearlan, best wishes to you Kind Sir.

I'll look for an addition to our game so we have some fresh blood to work with and so I have more motivation.

Posted: **Fri Jun 25, 2010 11:49 am**

ah, and Andy, thanks for keeping the case file fresh.

Posted: **Tue Jun 29, 2010 7:17 pm**

Lettuce welcome Reclaimer to the game. His character will be introduced in a bit.

Posted: **Wed Jun 30, 2010 1:43 pm**

Hullo, Reclaimer, and welcome.

Posted: **Wed Jun 30, 2010 9:38 pm**

Hey everybody, glad to bed here.

Posted: **Thu Jul 01, 2010 4:31 pm**

you slut.

Posted: **Fri Jul 02, 2010 1:13 pm**

that was so uncalled for, have you been drinking?

Posted: **Sat Jul 03, 2010 12:55 pm**

Uncalled for? Did you see what Reclaimer said? He's going to bed here. If he'd bed here, he'd bed anywhere! He's the one who started acting all easy and promiscuous.

Posted: **Sun Jul 04, 2010 11:33 pm**

My shame has been revealed!

Posted: **Tue Jul 06, 2010 5:43 pm**

Waiting for Andy to reply to my PM and we'll get going. He has till tomorrow and I'll move him on myself :]

Posted: **Wed Jul 07, 2010 2:40 am**

Hey Guys, sorry, vagued out briefly but I'm back! And welcome Reclaimer! - Andy

Posted: **Tue Jul 13, 2010 9:21 pm**

what's with the with the dawdling?

I'm ready to move this thing along, but I need cooperation

Posted: **Wed Jul 14, 2010 4:12 am**

*shrug* I've been posting... but I'm afraid I must have put the others to sleep. But the coffee's almost done.

Posted: **Wed Jul 21, 2010 11:05 am**

We're making good progress, keep up the fun

Posted: **Wed Aug 18, 2010 10:18 am**

PING.

Hello??

Posted: **Fri Aug 20, 2010 9:31 am**

Sorry. Life caught up somehow. We'll resume on monday.

Posted: **Fri Aug 20, 2010 5:13 pm**

No worries on my behalf, buddy. This week we started first article testing on the system I've been designing for the past two years. I've been busier than a fox in a hen house. Probably will continue through next week as well.

Posted: **Tue Aug 24, 2010 2:59 pm**

Monday was cancelled

On an unrelated tack, you all may enjoy the following, a reading of HPL's 'The Tomb' on BBC Radio 7 (Internet Station):

Will be there for another 4 days I think. Only about 30 mins. Suitably creepy...

Cheers,

I'd be interested in playing, if you're searching out another to play blood sucking practical jokes on.....

Cheers - trix

Posted: **Fri Sep 03, 2010 2:43 am**

Eeek, stalker!

LOL... just joking.

zielonobrody, I told Trixie about your current player need. Didn't figure you'd mind if I brought in some fresh blood.

Posted: **Fri Sep 03, 2010 6:08 am**

eeeep!

I got a bad visual......FRREEEEEEEEESH BLOOOOOOOOOD MUAH HAHAHA!

Posted: **Tue Sep 07, 2010 9:55 am**

I have no problem with that if you want to play Andrew the Salesman. You'll find his stats in the Dramatis Personae thread and all his actions and what he experienced start with IC Scene 9, so read up and get this thing moving

And above all, welcome to the game

Posted: **Wed Sep 22, 2010 10:48 pm**

I'm going to have an outpatient procedure tomorrow afternoon and expect to be recuperative on Friday. So, I probably won't be posting after tonight until Saturday sometime.

Posted: **Sun Sep 26, 2010 12:06 pm**

My apologies. I don't get to use the computer much recently, hence the silence on my part. We will continue later today hopefully.

Posted: **Sun Sep 26, 2010 1:40 pm**

Well, my outpatient exploratory heart catheterization on Thursday found three seriously blocked coronary arteries, which developed into a three day hospital stay and placement of three stents ( little blood vessel liners to expand the arteries into something like full flow.

So I'll be catching up with my posts over the next day or so.

In a couple of two weeks I'll go back to have the other blockage stented.

Posted: **Sun Sep 26, 2010 8:02 pm**

@ Gaffer - wow... that kind of sucks. Glad you're back online now, and hopefully on your way to a full and speedy recovery.

Posted: **Wed Oct 06, 2010 12:48 pm**

Apologies once again. I must take a break for now, I have to finish my masters thesis by mid December and tie up some loose ends and I can't focus on providing you with a decent gaming experience at this time. I'll PM you all when I have enough time to dedicate myself to your fun. Sorry, life

Posted: **Wed Oct 06, 2010 2:20 pm**

Okay. So long for now, folks.

Posted: **Tue Jan 11, 2011 9:07 am**

I should be free in under a month, I hope you guys are still interested in playing.

Posted: **Mon Apr 11, 2011 8:44 pm**

Any chance to revive this story?

Posted: **Tue Apr 12, 2011 7:12 am**

Perfect timing Chief

I must say I was expecting my examination to go quicker, but as I flunked the first exam, and the second a week later too, I was unable to revive the story. BUT I had my exam yesterday and I finally passed!!!! WEEEEEE!!!!

I'm a Master of Automated and Robotics Engineering, spec. Photonics and Opthalmology Technician

Without a job

So I'm now at your disposal again and will be more than happy to return with the rest of the story.

Can I get a head count?

Present, of course... and congratulations!

Posted: **Sun Apr 24, 2011 5:24 am**

This looks like it's not going to go anywhere

Posted: **Mon May 02, 2011 1:05 pm**

Woa! Just i-wandering past and happened to notice life in the old adventure! Oh GM, if you still want me as a player, am about, just give the word. - Andy (and Calum)

Posted: **Wed May 04, 2011 9:31 am**

Absolutely

Posted: **Thu May 05, 2011 12:42 pm**

I have a busy weekend ahead, so expect the story to resume Monday-Tuesday-ish. Sorry to keep you waiting.

Posted: **Fri May 06, 2011 2:06 pm**

Oh thank god, SAT Exams tomorrow and I've been having a rough week anyways. I'll be better for Monday-Tuesday

Posted: **Tue May 10, 2011 8:52 pm**

I should have something for you in the morning (CET).

Posted: **Wed May 11, 2011 1:41 pm**

Woo Hoo! The game's afoot (again)!

Just to remind you other players, I was trying to post our discoveries in the Clues and Info file, which I'll update again tomorrow. - Andy

Posted: **Thu May 12, 2011 2:38 pm**

Hello everyone,

I am the new guy ! Well, technically, I am going to take on the part of Michael "Mike" Peterson, MD : http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.p ... tid=297525, who left the party after scene 2. I will join the diner right now and you can tell me all about your day.

Posted: **Thu May 12, 2011 5:15 pm**

Welcome to the game

I apologize if you don't remember Mike Peterson. It was a long time ago

If I screwed up as to who replaced who for the first meeting in the diner I also apologize, but, well it doesn't really matter for the game's sake

Posted: **Thu May 12, 2011 6:32 pm**

FYI - while Dan is in the hospital (no doubt flirting with all the nurses to pass the time), I'll be portraying the part of Karl Werner, Psychic Investigator & Publisher of The Seer.

Posted: **Thu May 12, 2011 8:56 pm**

I see we're kraken

lol. I finally got to lacrosse practice today, and the team cried "Yeti" when they saw me. Yeah, I haven't seen them in a year. Glad to have things back to normal, forum, lacrosse, etc. Glad to have you guys (still) playing with me. I hope we all have fun

Posted: **Fri May 13, 2011 6:29 am**

Welcome new player! The more the merrier!! - Andy

Posted: **Fri May 13, 2011 4:21 pm**

Fresh blood. mmm, tasty

Posted: **Fri May 13, 2011 9:41 pm**

Hi,

I'm joining too. I will be playing Will Crigler.

Posted: **Sat May 14, 2011 6:59 pm**

Posted: **Mon May 16, 2011 9:53 am**

Let's go let's go, weekend is over, time to get going. Your sanity is just waiting to be lost, lots and lots coming your way

And your lives are at stake too

Let's get rolling people, we had a nice burst of speed last week, let's not waste it

Posted: **Mon May 16, 2011 2:39 pm**

Yeah, sorry ... PlayStation Network finally came back up and demanded my attention.

Posted: **Wed May 18, 2011 8:25 am**

I really like the way we're rolling here, but let's head towards a decision please

You have a new uninvestigated clue I might add

Posted: **Fri May 20, 2011 5:57 pm**

Hand over the Play Stations

Posted: **Mon May 23, 2011 1:30 am**

Got a new computer ... just got caught up with all the other stuff I had to do first. But I'm ready to get back to business.

Posted: **Tue May 24, 2011 1:06 am**

Oops, sorry guys, got REAL busy at work last week. Back with you all now. Cheers - Andy

Posted: **Tue Jun 07, 2011 3:28 pm**

Sorry for the delay. Busy week. Time for some new threads I believe. I'm on it.

Posted: **Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:26 pm**

Introducing another player for Mike Peterson. Please stay

Posted: **Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:37 pm**

Hello new players. Glad to have you along.

It was getting a mite lonely there for a spell.

Posted: **Mon Jun 20, 2011 10:37 pm**

hey, I should be able to start posting tomorrow, unfortunately today I'm busy

Posted: **Thu Jun 23, 2011 5:55 am**

And a big welcome from me, if not my highly prejudiced PC! - Andy

Posted: **Fri Jun 24, 2011 8:27 pm**

sorry to ask but, I'm not entirely sure where my character is right now, is he with the others heading for the chapel or is he elsewhere?

Posted: **Mon Jun 27, 2011 10:14 am**

Everyone is currently still by Mr. Dooley's kiosque, it's up to you where you'll be headed. I believe we have two wanting to read the diary, and two heading to look for the chapel.

Posted: **Tue Jun 28, 2011 1:14 am**

I think Will had a change of heart, Karl might be banging his head on that diary alone.

Posted: **Tue Jun 28, 2011 8:42 am**

Yes yes, I noticed that. But Karl can have the NPC and by all means go harass Dan in the hospital

Posted: **Wed Jun 29, 2011 8:15 pm**

In other news, I'm starting work on Friday, so there'll be less of me available. such is life, 26, married, 14mo daughter, needs to work

But we've sort of reached a steady if slow pace, which I won't have much problem maintaining even with my new timetable. If I ever disappear, feel free to harass me via PM, I receive email notification, and will duly reply

Not that it's likely to happen mind you.

Posted: **Thu Jul 07, 2011 8:01 pm**

In other news, when I get the chance to post a new thread for the "notebook reaserch team", Mr. Imp will be returning to his old character and BenTheRat will be taking over Karl. Andrew will continue on as an NPC until we find someone for him

Should have something for you guys over the weekend. Ta ta for now

Posted: **Thu Jul 07, 2011 8:06 pm**

Looking forward to it, and glad to be here. Let's put this house to rest, shall we.

Posted: **Fri Jul 08, 2011 5:51 pm**

Time to activate multiple personality # 537... Dan Marrison. Surprised he hadn't been kicked out of the hospital for how many nurses' behinds he'd been pinching.

Posted: **Sun Jul 10, 2011 11:53 pm**

or maybe not?? Keeper, you out there?

Posted: **Thu Jul 14, 2011 10:52 am**

Dan, Karl and Andrew continue here: http://www.callofcthulhu.org.uk/viewtop ... 156&t=2628

Posted: **Thu Jul 14, 2011 2:08 pm**

It's kind of messed up, boss-man. You start a thread for us to study and interact, then you force the others to leave with non-visitor hours.

Posted: **Thu Jul 14, 2011 3:18 pm**

He figured you didn't have anything worthwhile to say anyway.

Posted: **Thu Jul 14, 2011 9:59 pm**

no no no. The nurse has entered and is trying to kick them out. Your move now:)

Posted: **Thu Jul 14, 2011 10:08 pm**

I can't believe this game started two years ago. Wow. And it's just a one-two session game normally. Go figure. I'm happy we're still going though:)

Posted: **Fri Jul 15, 2011 8:29 pm**

Hi everyone,

I will take over Andrew. I read what you did so far, quite impressive.
Good luck to us.

Roy

Posted: **Fri Jul 15, 2011 8:51 pm**

Welcome to the group Roy.

Posted: **Fri Jul 15, 2011 10:49 pm**

Hi Roy... welcome and all that...

Posted: **Sun Jul 17, 2011 8:18 pm**

I think we have a solid group of players that will take us through to the end of the game by summer's end. Please let us know if you're planning any vacation anytime soon. I'm newly-employed, so no chance for vacation in the next few months

Weekends are still tougher for me to post than regular days, I will be writing from work as it's not very consumimg most of the time.

Posted: **Mon Jul 18, 2011 1:45 pm**

Don't be all obvious about it or you'll find IT put a block on the firewall. Bastards are like that.

Posted: **Mon Jul 18, 2011 8:16 pm**

We take turns with the computer. I work in sales and the market is slow. The boss isn't around much anyway. I'll turn on cookie cleaning in our browser and nobody will ever know

I'm generally the IT specialist

Posted: **Mon Jul 18, 2011 8:24 pm**

We'll have to put the "notes" party on hold while the other part of the group catches up in game time. Let's hope they move quickly

up and atom!

Do we have someone playing Mike Peterson or is he dead silent? Speak up player!

Posted: **Tue Jul 19, 2011 12:04 am**

Ah man, and I just lost my first sanity points, it was getting good.

Just let us know when we can get at it again.

Posted: **Tue Jul 19, 2011 2:13 pm**

You should just whip up some crazy dream sequence to keep us busy. lol.

Posted: **Thu Aug 04, 2011 2:57 pm**

Hot DAMN, how the hell did all 3 of us pass that sanity check with Cthulu busting in the window and eating the pilot and co-pilot. Totally awesome. Too bad it's probably all some dream and wasted!!

Posted: **Thu Aug 04, 2011 5:02 pm**

Definitely a dream, but I don't think it's Cthulhu ... don't remember him having suckers. But yeah... that's quite a string of luck. Let's hope it holds.

Posted: **Thu Aug 04, 2011 9:21 pm**

Can it be an elder thing ?

Posted: **Fri Aug 05, 2011 10:47 am**

Does it really matter what it is? It's only a dream

Posted: **Fri Aug 05, 2011 1:14 pm**

Sometimes dreams come true

Posted: **Fri Aug 05, 2011 1:32 pm**

Apparently it matters enough to cost us sanity...

Posted: **Fri Aug 05, 2011 3:04 pm**

All I know it was nasty enough to jump on our plane, eat our pilot, grab the co-pilot, and drag him out on the wing for an after meal snack???

Posted: **Fri Aug 05, 2011 4:36 pm**

Roy, still waiting on that parachute roll I believe.

Posted: **Sat Aug 13, 2011 1:25 pm**

Hello! It looks like I'm going to be taking over the role of Mike. This will be my first PbP game, and I'm really looking forward to it!

Posted: **Sat Aug 13, 2011 2:28 pm**

Welcome bander, have fun and stay active.

Posted: **Wed Aug 24, 2011 7:53 pm**

Apologies chaps. I'm swamped at work. I'll try to get a few words in tomorrow morning. The other sales personell is either sick or on holidays this week, so it's a rough week. I'll reply to your PM's soon and we'll get this moving again by Friday I promise.

Posted: **Thu Sep 01, 2011 4:47 am**

Guys, much fun as it is to watch half the party being slain in a terribly bad dream, I'm thinking that we could reunite the two teams if those of us at the chapel head off for some 1st aid and a night's sleep. Then, assuming the other PCs wake up at all, we could regroup and re-do the chapel the next day?

Posted: **Thu Sep 01, 2011 3:12 pm**

I think we have woke up, we are mainly waiting on you guys to get through the night and catch up.

Posted: **Thu Sep 01, 2011 5:15 pm**

Well, I'm still in the middle of it. Luck's been on my side thus far. (*knocking on virtual wood*)

Posted: **Fri Sep 09, 2011 9:20 am**

That's fine by me.

Posted: **Mon Sep 19, 2011 11:08 am**

Just so you know I'm not going to kill you off in adrenaline induced glee. I will break minor rules and let you reroll crucial rolls to save your characters from irreversible doom/death/madness. Unless you wish to perish, no problem

Posted: **Mon Sep 19, 2011 1:40 pm**

nice to know.

Posted: **Fri Sep 30, 2011 8:21 pm**

A few things for thought as I don't have time to post more right now, will continue Monday.

1. The book is in Latin
2. It's in really bad shape. A trip to the MU would be great, but it'll stay there and be under examinations for a long time. It's practically falling apart in your hands.
3. Dan should have caught on by now that the others also were mentioning a similar dream

4. The meals were delicious

5. Sure, you'll get some HP back. I'll look into it Monday. Thanks for the reminder

Safe weekend!

Unless you're implying that there was additional conversation going on outside of the scope of our IC posts, then I don't see how that could be true. Dan was the only one who actually mentioned specifics about the dream.

Posted: **Wed Oct 05, 2011 2:56 pm**

seems I misread, Dan thinks he had the dream alone. Apologies.

Posted: **Thu Oct 13, 2011 6:41 am**

Guys, bit of HP Lovecraft material for your interest: BBC Radio 4 Extra has just broadcast 'The Shadows Over Innsmouth' in 5 x 30 min parts as a sort of audio book with some audio SFX. I think I may have mentioned BBC radio previously did 'At the Mountains Of Madness'. Both are really good.

You can download at least Shadows and possibly still Mountains, apparently quite legally, from the following archive site: www.radioarchive.cc - but you have to create a login account with minimal details. If you don't want to do that, I have them both saved although file transferring them may be a challenge...

I'm a fan of audio stuff and I cannot recommend these both too highly!

Cheers,

Andy

I got lost... Where am I thread-wise. I thought I was going back to the chapel.

Posted: **Wed Oct 26, 2011 12:58 am**

zerostate wrote:I got lost... Where am I thread-wise. I thought I was going back to the chapel.

Yeah, everyone except Karl is heading to the chapel (correct me if I'm wrong, somebody). The intrepid investigators have just detoured via the dread house as we rather foolishly left all our equipment there. The idea was to zip in, grab our stuff, then continue on to the chapel. Of course, that was the plan...

Refer to the thread headed "Off Exploring".

Posted: **Wed Oct 26, 2011 3:32 am**

Yea and I am on my way to the university with the book. The plan is to get what quick info I can from it that will help us now and then leave it with the professor for more detailed investigation that we can get later if necessary.

No thread on it.
