Yeah those are the tests, its to get into a Graduate school. I scored very average (low middle I'll say) in the math section. That was to be expected though, I haven't done anything in math beyond percentages and basic arithmetic in a couple years so studying that war mostly like trying to break the rust off. Unofficially in the verbal I scored in the 96th percentile which is good because I am mostly looking to get into a linguistics program.

Anyway, the drinking went on for 2 nights so I didn't post yesterday. I'm up and at'em today so I'll be rolling dice in a few minutes.

I think Birdy is going to hold fire now, and just try to listen to what the Germans are saying. I appreciate that might be difficult or even impossible, but ill make a listen roll in case that is relevant.

1d100=100

Well I guess that seals that!

[CrackheadC.]

Hah I appreciate the self policed roll. Anymore listen funbles like that you're gonna be leaving the war qith one of those old trumpet hearing aids.

I wouldn't recommend using the on-board dice roller to handle a combat round. I only did it because Invisible Castle had been down at the time. I did have to edit the posts repeatedly, and it was a pain. Also, there is a limit of twenty rolls per post, so with a combat like that I needed to make multiple successive posts as well. The built-in dice roller here also doesn't support adding multiple types of dice together, such as 1d6+1d4, so you have to do those as separate rolls. It's a lot easier to just use Invisible Castle and embed the rolls in the text (or leave them out, if there are a lot of them and the players don't need to know).

Hey guys im just checking in briefly. As you know i had a absence due to family wedding and one due to the gre. I am currently on pain meds for getting wisdom teeth extracted but i promise I will be back and able to post soon.

Good lord Crack, we need to help you redefine fun!

Hey folks, anyone hear from Crack? Seemed he was juggling some pretty big things - wisdom teeth removal sucks! and just wanted to make sure he hasn't had other things arise.

Good story. I liked the detail about "feldgrun" trousers (http://www.military-antiques.cz/uniform ... rhose.html). The ending was cool, I didn't expect that. You ought to post it on this site, I think there's a fan-fiction thread.

This may sound a bit over-dramatic, but is there anyway the administrator can ping him via email to see if all is well? Wisdom teeth surgery is a nasty one...and can sometimes get really complicated really quick in the post healing process -- dry sockets and such.

Given the default settings of the board, he should receive an email if you PM him as well.
