Sunday would be the very best, but Saturday would work too. But it would have to start at noon, pacific time.

I should be able to make it Saturday afternoon. My sleep schedule is fairly normal for the moment, so I shouldn't be asleep. If necessary I can rustle up some caffeine, I guess.

Edit:
Just give me a semi-solid time and I'll be there, Sed.

Sorry I wasn't there last Saturday. Things have been hectic for me. Though it looks like things won't be so hectic for about a month. Still, I'm pretty sick right now. Meh... Be here this Saturday and I can wing things like I did last time. Be here next Saturday and I can have something more polished.

Is 3 PM central time still a good time for you guys? Or would something later or earlier be better? For me, to be honest, a later time would be better. Like 6 PM.

3pm Central is good for me. I might be able to do later as well.

Anybody else coming today?

EDIT: I know Evidon and Tkaln made it earlier. Sorry I wasn't there at 3. Did anyone else make it? I did get there at 4. Like I said, later times work better for me.

Just remember, I really do need three characters to show up to have a real session.

No sweat. I'll try to have something for this Saturday. It's my birthday on Friday, though, so I'll have to use Thursday to really prepare. Do you guys want to start doing sessions Saturdays and Sundays? Maybe Fridays too? If we had a session starting at say 4 PM CST each of those days, one of those days we'd be bound to have enough players. That said, I think maybe I should start reconsidering how we do this. Like even when one person shows up, I could put together something for them, if they wanted. It's just that DM and one player isn't very fun.

I can possibly make it this Saturday, depending on how late it is in the afternoon. Sunday would work fabulously for me.

I want to get as much in as I can, as I will have little to no internet connection this summer.

I seem to be able to access the chatango room from an iPhone so a fried network card shouldn't do much more than slow me down a little. Saturday or Sunday work for me.

I'm feeling very sick today. I've got a lot on my mind. I need to postpone this for now. Let me just get everything put together first. I think this project was maybe a little too ambitious for me right now. But, I still want to do it. I just need a while. I need to make charts and maps and things like that. But the main thing is I just feel like absolute bloody hell today. So it's just not a good idea to try a session while I'm in a rotten mood. I'll post something when I'm ready to get this show back on the road. For now, I'd say try out E's Noria alpha campaign.

Jackpot. I found a folder at the bottom of one of my boxes that has my original character sheet for Sir Stephen O'Shiel, my paladin, plus the of PCs in that party. Also in the folder was my dad's (the DM) critical hit chart:

1 ASS
2 RIGHT LEG SHIN/KNEE
3 LEFT LEG SHIN/KNEE
4 RIGHT LEG THIGH
5 LEFT LEG THIGH
6 GROIN
7 LEFT ARM SEVERED
8 RIGHT ARM SEVERED
9 ARMPIT RIGHT
10 ARMPIT LEFT
11 GUT (SLASH)
12 GUT (SLASH) DISEMBOWELLED
13 GUT (THRUST)
14 CHEST (SLASH)
15 CHEST (HEART)
16 NECK (SLIT THROAT)
17 NECK (THRUST)
18 NECK (SEVERED HEAD)
19 FACE (THROUGH MOUTH)/CHEEK'
20 FACE (THROUGH EYE)

Needless to say, this made the campaign ridiculously deadly. This would probably have been better used as a kill chart. I got my head bitten off by a freaking hydra, but dad was nice and reversed it, blaming it on that he didn't roll initiative. Poor Guiseppi (an NPC) still basically lost his arm. And one of the player characters did die near the end of the quest. We were like... level 1 characters. The quest XP bumped everyone up to level 2, but the kill XP bumped everyone up to level 3. That's what happens when you kill two hydras, a hag, and a couple dozen freaking gnolls.

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the lurkiest of them all?
You could use the FF40K version of "criticals" which don't occur randomly, but when you run out of wounds (Or HP for DnD). When you take your last wound, you roll on the critical chart to see what gruesome injury injury you suffer, up to and including gruesome death: http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Dark_Heresy#Crit_Tables. For more fun, add the character's degree of negative HP to the roll.
