Danny · 02-08-2009, 11:57 PM

BTW, I plan on hassling you guys throughout the game. if it bothers you let me know, but if not just consider me the half man, half donkey who runs through out the world going Ha-Ha to all of your mishaps and trying to lead you down a path of confusion!

ntndeacon · 02-09-2009, 12:55 AM

I have a chalk star on my floor and a metal statue Ican talk to. exits are forward, left and right.

DaddyTorgo · 02-09-2009, 12:58 AM

i have no such star - just a tapestry on the wall and a couple exits

Chief Rum · 02-09-2009, 01:45 AM

Hmm, going over the rules again more carefully, and I see I actually can't use a shield either. I will take both items and hope to barter them off to one of you who can use them, or I'll sell them to the Djinn tomorrow to get some cold hard cash.

Yes. My option is to spit into it. I'm not really sure I feel like doing that.

The Jackal · 02-09-2009, 02:11 AM

I also have a blazing star on the floor. I think I'm going to reserve action and start moving.

How can you not feel like spitting into it?

JAG · 02-09-2009, 05:24 AM

Yes, not only did I select the most common class but the most common race of the class as well.

My initial room also contains a star, a black rug with a gold star woven into it. I also can place a coin on a shelf. I'm leaning towards that, though don't you just expect the DM to say "You place the coin on the shelf. Nothing happens. What did you think would happen, a giant chest of gold would rise up from under the rug for your piddly gold piece donation?"

I will give you a heads up if I find a locked chest (although I'd have to find you first) or item that could be nice for a scout.

This could be like a branch of hell. There's a dragon in the next room but fortunately you have a Sword of Dragonslaying and Shield of Protection from Dragonfire...oh, but you're a cleric so you can't use either. Too bad, should've started as a warrior.

Abe actually corrected my reading of the chute that I posted in forum. No extra info from our tormenter, I'm afraid.

"I'm going to search the room and then perhaps pet the horsie, I can go forward, left or right in my room, I just get this vibe that if I pet the horse, it's going to turn into something nasty and bite my arm off, which would lead to a quick exit..."

PurdueBrad · 02-09-2009, 07:59 AM

I have a feeling that after sliding on the chute in my room, I will receive a t-shirt that reads:

I visited the dungeon and all I got was fifty bucks, this lousy t-shirt, and five days of food...and I'm a Sis'Sharr, so I can't even eat the damn food."

boberot · 02-09-2009, 08:56 AM

It's usually the most quiet Dvergr Clerics that are the most effective, as everybody knows.

Anyway, I have a star burned into the floor, and a low-hanging chandelier I have the option of bashing.

Abe Sargent · 02-09-2009, 09:00 AM

I'm going to go ahead and start processing morning actions. What I'll do is create a tab with your pm and the info, and then not hit send until we hit 10, but therefore help the processing then. If I accidentally hit send early, please do not tell anyone here. There is still time to change your action, of course.

Abe Sargent · 02-09-2009, 09:20 AM

I have processed the actions of the 12 who have already sent them to me. Still plenty of time for the others, and when 10 hits, I'll send them out

I would be open to a barter. Once you get the sword, let's talk. I have plenty of food that I won't need.

Poli · 02-09-2009, 09:43 AM

Rattle, rattle, thunder, clatter,
boom, boom, boom,
Don't worry, that's just Poli's belly.

Been puking some late night Taco Bell all night/day. Lovely.

Thomkal · 02-09-2009, 09:51 AM

*sigh* geeking out here after fond memories of my D&D playing days.

would have signed up, but unsure that I will be free later this week, so thought it best to not join in the fun.

PackerFanatic · 02-09-2009, 09:57 AM

My star is pulsating as well...but I am still ringing the gong this morning. That sounds like a lot more fun.

Passacaglia · 02-09-2009, 09:59 AM

I'm dirty.

PackerFanatic · 02-09-2009, 10:00 AM

Sorry I lied - my star is NOT pulsating. It is just lightly covered with pixie dust.

Abe Sargent · 02-09-2009, 10:00 AM

Actions have been sent.

Move Deadline is 4 pm EST

DaddyTorgo · 02-09-2009, 10:02 AM

*sigh* well there was nothing behind the tapestry. big surprise eh?

JAG · 02-09-2009, 10:13 AM

The giant chest of gold indeed did not rise up out of the floor.

boberot · 02-09-2009, 10:19 AM

Upon further inspection, the chandelier in my room turned out to be . . .

. . .

. . .

. . . a chandelier!

Oops.

PurdueBrad · 02-09-2009, 10:25 AM

I slid down the chute, which, as I was told would've been fun when I was 5...however, I'm not 5 anymore.

I will be moving. Are people heading "in", meaning forward or skirting the edges by going right or left? I can go forward or right and thought about going right to try and bump into somebody if people aren't going inward.

Mustang · 02-09-2009, 10:31 AM

I'm skirting the edge. I believe the dungeon gets harder as you move forward so, I'm guessing you want to see a brick color change every 2-3 levels.

Qwikshot · 02-09-2009, 10:37 AM

So PB is down a level then?

PurdueBrad · 02-09-2009, 10:44 AM

Negative Qwik, my chute was an in room slide only.

chesapeake · 02-09-2009, 11:06 AM

Human Artificer checking in, happy to help anyone with their magic needs.

I'm not surprised that I'm the only one.

My opening room had a silver star on the floor and a wooden rod proudly displayed on a metal stand. I inspected it -- it is melded tightly to the stand and I can't do anything with it.

I can go forward or right. I think I'm going right.

Abe Sargent · 02-09-2009, 11:11 AM

Thomkal has requested to join the game

Anyone mind if he does, one action late? I will be assigned him a random race and class so that he doe not benefit from pre-knowledge

PurdueBrad · 02-09-2009, 11:17 AM

Let him in, the more the merrier.

Passacaglia · 02-09-2009, 11:23 AM

I guess.

Fine by me.

Thomkal · 02-09-2009, 11:23 AM

well after posting that above, found out something that makes me have a better chance of being able to participate. My mother is likely going to have back surgery, but a test she needed to take has been pushed back from today to Thursday, and not sure when she would have the surgery after that anyway. So thanks and a big :P if you say no to letting me in.

Abe Sargent · 02-09-2009, 11:27 AM

Okay, Thomkal now has a room description of his first room, which he may choose to share or not to share. He needs to get me a move action for 4, and I still need a weapon decision from him. His character has been added to the roster at the beginning.

He selected Human Artificer, but I determined randomly and rolled Human Wizard. Since that was so close anyway, I decided to give him his desire.

Qwikshot · 02-09-2009, 11:33 AM

Competition, NO (fine by me really)

Thomkal · 02-09-2009, 11:45 AM

Thanks Abe!

I find myself in a room with two exits, one forward and one right. There is a blue star magically attached to the ceiling, and a bath here. I washed in the bath and nothing happened, but at least I'm clean now.

Did anyone investigate the star in their room or is that possible? I'm guessing the stars aren't anything significant otherwise.

Thomkal · 02-09-2009, 11:47 AM

Oh and I think going left or right rather than forward makes sense at this point, will give us a better chance of meeting up with each other. And as a frail artificer, I will need to meet up with a lot of you for protection.

Abe Sargent · 02-09-2009, 11:56 AM

Please note that, after you move at 4:00, if you are still alive and still in the room you moved to, directions given will be from your new orientation, not from your original one

So, for example, if you go right, and end up in a room with exits left, forward and right, then left in the new room is the same direction as forward in the first room.

ntndeacon · 02-09-2009, 12:11 PM

I think I am going forward. at least someone should to see what one level in is like.
