Eberron: The Kingmaker Plot - The Story So Far...

[Wreckferret]

It can do the Kessel Run in 5 parsecs! <nods knowingly, ignoring all the mathematic inconsistancies...>

[Sheldon]

Sharn?

[Kelvin273]

Wow. Has to be, or inspirational thereof!

[if we have connection problems they can be worted out easyly by installing http://hamachi.en.softonic.com/ and connecting via that.]

We can make a start on this when Kelvin is settled into his new place. So either the last week of November or December. Hence we can sort out what day of the week and times we can all do then.

[Kelvin273]

Just to let you guys know I'm starting to settle in and haven't forgotten about you!

[Sheldon]

My main computers broken atm, fixing it over the weekend with any luck. So we can start this online game over december.

We can try getting the voicechat going over skype, so if you download and install that we can post logons here and ring up for a conferance call.

Skype Name: TT &/or t33733

[Sheldon]

Main computer patched up.

Writen up all the 1st to at least 3-4th session stuff, just say the word and we can work out a good day.

I'll get more info on my rota tomorrow [9-8, 4 days a week, alternate weekends], but for now I can do any day after about 7:00pm, or anytime saturdays.

[Sheldon]

Anyone heard more from Kelvin?

Also could Bryce and Tom post up what sort of day and time they would most prefer for the game, and we can start narrowing it down to avalaible days.

[Kelvin273]

I am downloading and installing that chunk of software as we I type now I am finally in!

Installed. Now what was that skype thing ...

Now I have that - kelvin.walker273 is me!

OK, when do we start?

In terms of free days, I am clear on most days, but Tuesdays may well be my new gaming night

[Sheldon]

If its a day I'm on shifts, I can do 9:00pm to midnight.
On days I'm free we can do 6-7:00pm to midnight.

23rd - 26th are free days for me, but likly only the 23rd is viable unless everyone is having a lonely christmas this year.

30th - 1st are also free days for me, but again with the last two days being new years eve and new years its up to what people are doing

06th, 09th and the 10th are also free days for me.

aaaaaaaaand thats how far my rota sheet goes for now.

[Kelvin273]

I would say, wait until the new year. I am coming down to my parents with the kids on the 23rd, so my computer access will be limited to what I have on my notebook. On the other hand, if anyone has a venue ...

[Wreckferret]

Mmmm. This side of Xmas looks doubtful doesn't it?
I head East on the 24th & won't be back here until well into the following week.

In terms of days, I'd prefer to pick a day & try to stick some regularity to it (where possible).
Instant reaction would have been Tues Evening like we used to, but if Kelvin has conflict on this, then I'd have to say try the Weds.

I haven't had the chance to ask Tom in person, but do we know if he's ok with this (both technologically wise & day/times)? He's been very quiet on the topic (on the boards that is).

[Kelvin273]

Wednesday is good by me too!

[Sheldon]

You all might want to download and install this program aswell.

http://hamachi.en.softonic.com/

Its essentialy a private tunneling program that can connect through various protocols and firewalls to the other computers active in the network. Hence any firewall issues that might otherwise bog us down in endless port forwarding can be avoided. It doesnt connect to anyone other than those in the network.

Network is IWARP, password is IWARP.

However once we are all connected via SKYPE, we can talk through everything in anycase if anyone has problems.

[Sheldon]

I'll set up the server on Wed the 6th of Jan, from 6:00pm - 12:00pm. I have that day off so feel free to contact me via SKYPE during the day if you have any problems setting up.

If we all can turn up and put together our characters then we shoudl be able to get a good fer hours into the start of the next chapter.
