Since we already got a slack set up for TDC, I've made a private channel for our planning purposes (and invited those people who I already saw had accounts).

We don't have to use it of course, but I figured it may be useful.

I'm not worried. I've got spies and moles aplenty! So you can try and figure out who the "cylon" is!

You've got nothing... nothing!!

My Dwarf Fighter will be in your grill the entire time. Even when you shower he'll be there to clog the drain with hair from his beard. When you eat he'll be there licking your food first. Rybek the Dwarf will be bringing a board with your silhouette on it to use. If you thought 124 points of damage was a lot at WYC you haven't seen anything yet.

Yep. That's a Taunt. Definitely a Taunt.

We're doomed....

If we cant settle on classes before Sunday, I will be back online to see what can be worked out. In this case I still prefer to be on Team Stu.

Definitely not Epic if difficulty is an option.

There are no difficulty choices but as I said to Arcanist if you think this won't be like Epic (with plenty of deaths) then you might be disappointed. Jeff has even said it isn't IF you die...

Regarding classes, I assigned all the classes where there wasn't more requesting then available. Right now Ranger has 4+ people asking for it so I am waiting for those 4 to discuss and until one of those 4 chooses a different class I can't slot those people. Once we have 3 Rangers I can try to get people the Team they prefer.

Just an FYI - we should really have a 3rd Bard because the team without a Bard will not get the +2 hit/+4 Dmg bump. I switched over to Bard for Team Eric.

Ed.

If you and others can help arrange for me to borrow the Bard specific items then put me down for a Bard in Stus' group.

I will pm you with my base items Sunday.

Edwin

PS - No singing, just noise making here.

Excellent edwin that will really help. I was talking to Mongo on our slack channel and he has an extra set of all the Bard UR instruments so the only thing you need is regular Ranger/Rogue type of gear. You will be able to choose if you want to cast spells, melee, or cast scrolls during your standard action. Send me the build and I will work on it.

Ed

With edwin graciously filling our 3rd Bard role that means we are down to just 3 rangers (good). Just waiting for Kirk to figure out what his two other friends are playing. I am assuming Matthew you would want to play in Team Stu with your other friends so Kirk should try to fill in Team Eric/Raven.

Are you suggesting Valetutto and I are the same person? I am not him, not that I'm offended. He's a cool guy.

And Luke is Rogan

If you are ok with it Ed, I will let you work out the Bard equipment. I also have this years entire onyx set of Ur's if any of those help out the Bard... just let me know in Slack what you want me to bring in addition to the ur instruments. I can't check the forums very easily except when I am at hotel...

I'm Ro-gan. Geez! It's says so to the left of this post. How hard is that, Fiddy?

Ro-gan = Luke

Hey, Eric... you know that feeling you had today while on the hopper of being watched...? That was me.

Oh! And you shouldn't do what you were doing... it'll make you go blind.

Actually, I was pretty sure I had seen a post somewhere that the two of you were swapping. And since the event site has you signed up for Saturday Horde, and Valettuto hasn't chimed in on this thread, it made me think I was correct. Was there someone else you swapped with instead?

ok, updated Luke.
