The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread

Over Christmas I ran a Doctor Who / Cthulhu game for my brother and a cousin. I even crafted a few micro audio dramas to build the excitement for the game. Anyways, I share that because I finally got around to written a little blurb about it on my blog and wanted to share it with you guys. I even mention the games we got here. Anyways...

CthulaWho = Doctor Who + Call of Cthulhu

[Mr. Handy]

That was awesome! Is there an account of the game itself anywhere?

[jaysun81]

Thanks Mr. Handy.

Currently there's not an account of the game but I'll write something up. I'll keep you posted.

[Mr. Handy]

You're welcome, and take your time.

I went ahead and rolled for Chad's second shot, since his player hasn't posted in several days.

Sorry about that, got called out of town on short notice.

The guy went down for the count before Leonek had a chance to attack him, and we're now out of combat.

I was wondering what would have to happen to end that streak.

And me too!

[Mr. Handy]

I'm glad you're still with us. If you do want to create a temporary UNIT character for Episode 4, there's still time. I know that Jaysun and Yockenthwaite already said they don't want to, but I haven't heard from Thorn about that yet.

[Thorn]

Perhaps I should do that....When does it need to be ready?

[Mr. Handy]

You've still got a few weeks, I think. I can introduce your new character as soon as it's ready, but it can probably wait until the end of May. You can find the rules and post your character in the Character Creation/Rules thread, and Your Career in U.N.I.T. has various templates for types of characters. Given what the endgame will likely involve, your character should either be combat-oriented or should have a role that can support combat operations. Officer, Soldier, Medical Officer, and Covert Operative are all likely choices, though other professions are possible as well. If you want to play something other than what's listed, I can provide a skill list.

Apologies everyone, I will be off to Thailand until Wednesday of next week to visit my brother. Handy, I will PM you a list of action scenarios for you to keep things moving while I am gone.

[DetectiveSocks]

Have a safe and pleasant trip CrackheadC.!

Enjoy! Don't worry, I've got you covered.

There's a new trailer released today for the upcoming new series of Doctor Who with Peter Capaldi. And a broadcast date has been confirmed, at least for the UK. 23rd August. I think this link should work worldwide, cos it's on YouTube.

[Mr. Handy]

Thanks, it worked for me in America. Really looking forward to seeing the new Doctor in action!

As I said in the absence thread, I'll be leaving for a convention on the afternoon of July 2 and returning the night of July 6. While I have a laptop and should have Internet access, I doubt I'll have time to post, much less keep up with reading. I may not have time to catch up when I return on the night of the 6th, so I might not be able to post again until the night of the 7th.

[BenTheRat]

I am leaving tomorrow for summer camp with my scout troop tomorrow morning early. So I will be very limited internet connection and will not be able to post between now and next Saturday.

You guys have fun and I'll check back in then.

[Mr. Handy]

Welcome to AirborneXO, who will be joining us soon as Sergeant Valentine Hale! I plan to introduce him tomorrow.

[yockenthwaite]

There's a new trailer out, over a minute long.

[Mr. Handy]

Nice!

I didn't have time to start Airbornexo's new thread this weekend, so it will probably have to wait until next weekend.
