Finally! Another Update.

I know, I know, I’m rather chaotic with my posting, but who isn’t.  I’m going to make an effort this week to post at least once a day on topics that cover gaming or flights of fancy.  To let you know what has been happening since the last post, I’ll use a numbered bullet point system.

1. Paizocon: This convention I’m glad I picked up the tickets for.  Though I’m not a big enthusiast for the system they have been working on for the last year, it will be interesting to see how it runs in a convention setting.  I’ve always like their adventures, so it comes as no surprise that I volunteered to run one on Saturday morning.  I’ve also thrown in my talent of converting older modules so that I can run the Marco Volo series from 2nd edition.  This is going to take place all three days of the convention and I was surprised to see it filled up to the max number of players, eight.  I was able to sign up for a few of the other events as a participant but by volunteering as I have, I’m missing out on some of the other events that I wanted to attend.  At least I got my minis painting with Sean K. Reynolds. ;)

I would also like to mention that I had to make an outline for an adventure that could become a submission for the next Pathfinder module.  Though I would be generally excited about such a thing, I didn’t know I had signed up for the event and received an email on Tuesday that mentioned I had until Friday to submit something.  So I don’t think the adventure was my best work, but it does show off how quick I can come up with adventures.

2. My Player Dilemma: I’ve figured out what I wanted to do.  I’m going to stick with a 4e game, though I haven’t been in contact with the missing player.  I feel sorry for when he wants to come back to find we are not playing a game he is accustom to, but I like have a game were the players are enjoying themselves and I’ll have regular attendance.  So if he decides that he doesn’t wish to continue with us, I’ll be saddened at the lose, but it’s for the sake of the game.

The funny thing that happened here, the first 4e game session will be a month apart from the next one because of a few things that occurred in the real world with one of the players.  So much for continuous gameplay. :p

3. Another game night: I’ve picked up another game.  Over the last month, I’ve been looking to start up another group so that my gaming experience isn’t limited to me doing the DM thing.  So one of my gamers from the regular Friday game asked me if I would be interested in joining a Saturday 4e game at his place and I jumped at the offer.  I would have wanted to play one of the Retro clones out there, but we can’t all be choosers.  4e is good enough for me, especially in the way the DM is planning to run the game.  This was what sold me to the group.  So in two weeks, the first session of this game will commence and I’ll post regular updates on it here.  The first post will give a little detail on the setting and the character, then a few of the notes I will take from the game.  I’ll do each subsequent post based on my notes.

So that’s all that’s really happened in these past few weeks or months, depending on the date I last posted.  Catch me tomorrow as I post something that will rock your socks off.
