WHAT? no invite? Random Time  02:28, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't have a ticket, ask someone who does. :D--Łô√ë [[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg|Roar.]]îğá†ħŕášħ  02:34, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Wrong time zone and/or sleeping habits. :) -- ◄mendel► 04:10, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

guideliiiiiines
OK so... are we supposed to be inviting other peeps? Like is that part of the plan? And if so, is there an upper limit here to how many players total are supposed to be invited? And is there like, a limit of X new people invited per person? Details! Details!! -- AudreyChandler 20:44, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * You can invite someone if you think they would enjoy it, and you can invite as many as you want.--Łô√ë [[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg|Roar.]]îğá†ħŕášħ 21:49, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

time
I am kind of surprised how, from the availablities given, you come up with a 10 a.m. time -- is that really correct? -- ◄mendel► 15:16, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Seems like an ok time. &mdash; AC &amp; I implied anytime would probably work; you said > 5am PT (which, last time I checked, should include 10 am).
 * (OTOH, Gig can't make that date, so it's probably worth double-checking. :-)  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 18:08, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, 20:00 UTC is 1 pm PDT, and 10 am my time works better for me than 7 pm does :). -- ◄mendel► 02:05, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

The poll
I do not understand what the first poll is asking (regarding different dates & times, etc.), possibly due to chemical damage to my occipital lobe. Possibly. One never knows (and hence you must clean your volcanos). But anyway, I think it's asking... OK, actually, I really just have no idea what it's asking, or what choices each option corresponds to. Help. :[ -- AudreyChandler 05:16, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * If you run different campaigns concurrently, you're "schizo" because you're running different personalities alternately. If you run the same campaign and expect most people to make it, you'd be wanting teh second option.
 * Myself, I don't think we have that many people RSVPing, I think we can always get dates for Giga, TEF, Audrey, and myself, and we'd cast Felix as a supporting character who somehow enters and leaves the storyline if it turns out he really can't make it that often - maybe he has other obligations in the game world as well? (I assume there'll be logs, and I volunteer to edit them). It's better than starting two campaigns and not getting off the ground in any?
 * For a setting, I'd enjoy anything that allows us creativity and permits the DM to surprise us, so a strictly GW setting would be out; I'm very much not bound to any genre. -- ◄mendel► 09:07, 1 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Mendel... I... just tell me which button to push on the poll. lol. -- AudreyChandler 19:02, 1 June 2009 (UTC)


 * As far as setting, I answered honestly with the fantasy genre/standard D&D (I've never played it before!!), but I agree with you that any world to romp around in is fine as long as it's creative/fun. ^^ -- AudreyChandler 19:02, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * If the GW option gets chosen you will be surprised. Most of all because you will have more than 8 skills :P--Łô√ë [[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg|Roar.]]îğá†ħŕášħ  22:10, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

mendel making me join
I like can join ^yo? Mendel told me to join like 3 weeks ago >.> &mdash; Warw/Wick 16:22, 1 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I sent you the ticket, but now I'll also post it on your userpage. -- ◄mendel► 18:11, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Books required
Do we need any books (like Gigathrash's guide, Gigathrash's super cool handbook for players, Manual of Gigathrash's awesome monsters). Also, what edition of D&D is this (roughly) based on (3e or 4e) Random Time  17:04, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
 * If any of this actually matters, I won't play. -- ◄mendel► 17:30, 2 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Books? We ain't got no books. We don't need no books! I don't have to show you any stinkin' books! oh, so sorry: correct misquote, wrong movie   &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 17:46, 2 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I think RT is being silly, as a nod to the voluminous flood of reference and supplement books D&D is known for. In the most dire scenario, everyone should be able to follow along fine with the SRD for basic functionality guidelines. The 3.0 / 3.5 / 4.0 edition (ie, ruleset) question is a good one, though. :P -- AudreyChandler 19:46, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I PLAY 3.5, but I DM G-Edition. G-Edition requires no books, and no actual reference materials at all.  The regular editions are too based on dice rolls to facilitate RPing well.  In conclusion:  I probable won't ask numbers, and you probably won't know any numbers until something dies, which at that point, you have to figure out how hard you already hit it to kill it.  I have many house rules, so don't ask them, because they are less rules, as facilitations to structured storytelling.--Łô√ë [[Image:Gigathrash_sig_G.jpg|Roar.]]îğá†ħŕášħ  21:59, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
 * But... dice have numbers on them. And numbers are pretty. :[ -- AudreyChandler 23:27, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
 * So put more numbers into your edit summaries, make them even prettier! [[Image:Wikismiley.svg |:)|16px]] -- ◄mendel► 00:10, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * and have you seen some of those dice? oh! vewy pwetty!  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 00:24, 3 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Ya, really. If I ever received an engagement ring I'd expect it to have an Arabic numeral inscribed on every facet. -- AudreyChandler 00:56, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

polls
(11 votes with 7 people invited strikes me as there being a few hidden wannabes. Just saying.) no doubt User:Mendel meant to sign his post earlier
 * how could you review the history of who voted in a poll?  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 00:13, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * You can't. -- ◄mendel► 00:28, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
 * ach, well then the hidden wannabes shall remain hidden  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 00:38, 3 June 2009 (UTC)


 * You could always post a bulletin inviting the prospective dreamers to come forward so they could be invited. Assuming, of course, that Gigathrash isn't already having qualms about DMing for 7 players at once. :]> -- AudreyChandler 01:01, 3 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I guess hinting doesn't count as an official bulletin. Maybe the hidden wannabes are not prospective dreamers, but alleged evil-doers with nefarious plans for wresting control of the ... [TEF pauses, as he realizes he has no idea of what control might be there to arrest, nor whether it has committed any crimes. Upon reflection, he realizes he has no idea to what everyone is invited ...and that the maid forgot to clean the mirror.]  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 02:27, 3 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Why does the mirror need cleaning? ...Is it anchored to the ceiling? -- AudreyChandler 02:44, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
