Thanks. I was mainly asking whether to use an online dice roller or not. Sounds good.

I'm a fan of real dice and trust! Unless you end up with +63 in everything.

OK, am I just the unpopular one that no-one's invited to the party, or is this not happening?

Sorry buddy, don't know why you didn't get on! I used the same invite we managed to speak to each other on earlier in the week!

Huge apologies. Same time and place next week though, and you'd be more than welcome...

A great thank you for the fun game, Baz. I very much enjoyed it and look forward to next week.

Neil (Smith), sorry to hear about the technical problem. Hopefully you can join next Friday.

[I tend to be travelling back to the UK on a few weekends, so cannot commit to every week; as long as this is fine, I would love to continue playing when I can.]

Many thanks,
Elina

Ok, not to worry. I should be around next week for another go. Glad you all had fun!

Those tech issues were a bit annoying, and it's never ever been an issue before! I've been singing G+ praises for weeks now, and it tried to make me look foolish tonight!

Still, we managed, and it was a good session.

Thanks to all for playing. Looking forward to more. Don't be shy with your feedback, happy to adjust the game to all our requirements where I can.

I enjoyed it, and we did manage to get through the technical difficulties.

I'll definitely be around again next week and up for playing again. I wouldn't be able to promise every Friday becuase of the joys of my shifts - I tend to either work 0700-1500, 1500-2300 (which rules it out) or 2300-0700 (which is what I have tonight), but there's no pattern to it so I'll have to play it on a week by week basis.

It was good fun and i will be able to make most Friday nights with little problem. If Neil joins next week, we will have a 'scout' for all those interesting rooms we are going to end up finding

Well as long as everyone doesn't throw themselves at the feet of the monsters we're fighting we should be okay - I can only protect one of you at a time you know.

Like Sexy Lemur you mean? We've all seen his dice rolls in real life...

Oh that's right, he used Excel.

:grin:

I think we should ask Neil to reskin his goblin as Raggy the kobold

Hands off my minion!

The game was warming up quite nicely and I was impressed with the tools that Hangouts brings to the game. Good stuff. The system itself was perfect for something like that and had a nice feel to it. Minimalist without the fear of insta-death. And its also a new group of people coming together through a strange medium .... it would take time to warm up. I particularly liked the chatroom function which allowed for a bit of side commentary without effecting the flow of the game. Nice for a Friday night chill out game.

Pity about the echoing etc. At times everyone was crystal clear and others it was all cylon!

Is joining in for next week a possibility?

I will have a problem with most Fridays but I'm interested in trying the system and format.

If it's likely to be a disruption having me as an "occasional" I fully understand. (I fancy Dwarf, if It's an option but any vacancy will do; except the Goblin's pet Jermlaine of course.).
