Thanks, Syd! You deserve a site named after you!

Yeah Aeonic, those are the stats. 18-16-14-12-10-8, it's a total of 78 points (I like my heroes with a bit extra zing  )
I was gonna make a list of everyone in, but it seems like we're getting the board /real/ soon, so we can wait a bit before that

Wow, that's a high array. Ability mods sum to plus 9! My question is, do you have a list of accepted/banned books to use as sources? I assume you're going to want to see every character sheet individually, and I'm definitely not going to try to wow everyone with optimization skills, but these things are good to know.

What do you guys think of output like this for the dice rolls?
| Roll: 3d10+5 | | Result: 17 | (3 + 8 + 1 + Modifier: 5) - 2011-3-20-18:43:40 | md5 |
| Roll: 1d20 | | Result: 6 | (6 + Modifier: 0) - 2011-3-20-18:43:40 | md5 |
| Roll: 2d3-1 | | Result: 4 | (2 + 3 + Modifier: -1) - 2011-3-20-18:43:40 | md5 |

The forum is all set to go, down there at the bottom of the page. It needs a better name, so come up with one.
I kind of like the "Mazes and Monsters" name that Syd came up with as the usergroup description.
To join, you must be playing in a game or have another good reason to do so. PM me or tell me on IRC if you want to join the group. You should be able to view the forum, but not post, if that's not the case, well, we'll finangle something.

Try the old shift-F5 trick. If you want in, you can go to Usergroups and request it, or just tell me. I changed my mind, I'll let non-players join. If anyone becomes an asshole, I'll just kick them out.

Okay, heroes, I've thought about it and done quite a bit of reading now, and I've decided on the starting level for the game. We'll be starting off with a Power Level of 9, so anyone who has already started working on a character sheet, make any necessary adjustments. Anyone who hasn't started, pick up that 3rd edition Hero's Handbook and get started, we should be able to get going somewhat soon now that Syd has provided us with a forum. Anyone who needs help, hop into the chatroom and ask all you like, plenty of us in there know a fair amount about both games.

Aeonic, got your message, will fill it out when I get home from work today!
EDIT: Also, don't see the new forum, even with a Shift+F5. That seems to do nothing.
Using IE7 at work.
EDIT EDIT: I can see it now.

I'll have to scale things up a little for sideways's PC, but that's okay. Might have to work on it tonight, swamped all day with work.

Just a little bit, but it's all good. There's not that much scaling that I have to do, and when it's done, it'll actually fit incredibly close to your initial concept idea.

Just a friendly reminder: The Game forum is up and running. Send Satsui a PM and he'll let you in. From there, you can confirm joining a game, and you can get started on character making and stuff

... I... I want to join. But I'm afraid of holding everyone back.
However, if I'm not mistaken, this laptop is being put in my possession, so it might not be an issue. I'm undecided on this.

https://discord.gg/homestuck is where you can find me literally 99% of the time. Stop on by if you feel like it, we're a nice crowd. |

It's about having fun, not knowing what dice to roll or anything. Pretty much just a bunch of people getting together and telling stories with some random elements thrown in to eliminate the whole "I shot you, nuh-uh" element that can happen from happening. Come. Have fun.

I shall try it. But if I start to hold you guys back because of time or something, don't hesitate to tell me.

This sounds pretty cool, altough I'm currently more interested in observing what you guys come up with than playing myself. Sehk's setup looks pretty good, and I'm curious to see how everyone sells themself as a hero, super or otherwise.

That's how I sound in real life when I'm undecided. And I don't think I've ever read a lick of HP fan-fiction...

Just a friendly reminder: Really running low on spots for my D&D campaign. If you haven't gained access to the game room yet and want to join, please do so right away. Only a post on the Crescent character creation thread will secure your position

I'm going to assume everyone who is interested has expressed interest. If there's anyone who still wants to join in at a later date, go ahead and shoot me a PM.
Also, if anyone wants to run a game, shoot me a PM. We'll see how the first two games go, and if they go well, I'll let you know when you can call for people.

Bumping to remind people that if they want to get into this forum, to please send me a private message, or ask me directly on the chat room, or ask me indirectly somehow, or do something.
Yes, you can go to the usergroups and request to join that way, but it may take longer, since I don't always notice when it says someone wants to join the group this way. PMs are much harder to forget. That's all.

I don't even see a forum..???
In fact, when anything changes (the slanting, the NES font, whatever the front page shenanigans was a while ago) I don't see it.
Are there some special permissions, or maybe my older browser is incompatible?
