--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 16:01, 14 July 2008 (MST) Cool. I'm happy to play Reagan as an NPC, though I will obviously turn him over if Ed ends up playing. You all should think about whether you want to do two hours of Magic (6-8, until Kim shows up), or an hour or so of Magic and then a quick (7ish until Kim shows up) combat test  to get familiar with the Shadowrun rules. I'm happy either way.

--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 19:07, 12 July 2008 (MST) A bit o the bad news.  Cheryl was diagnosed with breast cancer last week.  She has to get a mastectomy, but then has a 98% cure rate.  If the pathology turns out like the biopsies did, then she will not need radiation or chemo.  I'll be a bit leaving early so (as to be more awake on saturdays) and sometimes absent in the forsee-able future.  I had enough of talking about it so didn't mention it last night, but that probably contributed to my lack of attention at points.  It sucks, but at least it was caught sort of early, or at least not too late.  Could be worse, she could be gabe's mom.
 
  
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 23:25, 12 July 2008 (MST) Holy shit dude, well that sounds bad but then agian that cure rate is looking promising.  I'm hoping she pulls through okay!  And yeah, my mom is so dirty, the dirt will never come off.
 
  
BEN: I'm sorry ed. I know it doesn't really help, but if there is anything at all kim or I can do for you guys, let us know.

--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 08:23, 14 July 2008 (MST) Thanks all.  We hold on to the hope that, unlike buckwheat allergies, it should be curable.
+
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 12:38, 22 January 2013 (MST)Ladies and gentledudes, I have received an email from Ed and he is officially populating the earth with Edlings. He now has two kids, a boy (Theo) and a girl (Ella). He seems to be doing well, and I continue to be jealous of him. Reckanize.
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 10:07, 14 July 2008 (MST) Glad you've got such a high cure rate. I've got three family members getting treatment for various cancers right now. So best of luck.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 12:31, 14 July 2008 (MST) Damn.  I'm so sorry to hear that, Ed.  Ditto on Ben's offer for any help you might need with anything.  Also, and obviously, it totally makes sense for you to be leaving early and/or missing gaming, but we'll miss your presence nonetheless.  I believe we are still playing Magic 6-8 this Fri., so I hope to see you then.
+
 
+
JASON: Ed, I have been thinking about this and really I have nothing to say.  I wish I did, but I dont.  Please pass on my well wishes, I have nothing else.

====Separate Issue====

One thing I spoke to Ben about before, and you all can take it or leave it (this isnt an invitation to debate, just an observation) is my opinion why I think there is all this strife.  I think its because every time there is a new game no one ever compromises.  Instead of deciding on a game and embracing it for what it is, or at least trying to play that game as it is intended by its creator, all the players try to force the new game to be the game they wanted all along.  Every game is just a rehash of the last game with new characters and some rules changes. My advice (unsolicited and likely valueless) is to instead of trying to get the characters connected, all of the players should find a connection and embrace it, even if its not your first choice.  Make a compromise and an honest effort and see if that works better.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 12:22, 15 July 2008 (MST) i hope we are not having strife on the OAAAA page, my intention was to make some suggestions and I reiterate that i'm all open to compromise.  Totally willing to embrace whatever Ben's vision is for the game.  Ben, let us know if the suggestions get out of hand.
+
 
+
JASON: I dont mean right now.  In fact, my perception is that everyone goes along pretty well in the formulation stages of games.  Thats why its a bit of a system shock when the players tug the game in different directions.  To reiterate, this is my perception and not necessarily anyone elses.
+
 
+
'''Gabe:'''  I think it works fine to give the characters an over-all theme/purpose for the game.  Sure everyone can have little side projects, but typically you don't want to make it all about one person's goal/quest... unless you roatate whose it is.  I'd also say that in our current two games this isn't really a problem.
+
 
+
No offense, but you seem to have the most trouble embracing a game as it is.  Or rather, as people play it.  Also a game should be fun, so the GM might think one thing is fun and others don't...  while I agree we should always try a game, I'd hate for a GM not to be open to input from players before the game starts.  That was my mistake with Werewolf, now we gotta a game Dieter has zero interest in.  Granted the GM can always be like well.... that doesn't match my vision, but really, I don't think it has been a problem lately.
+
 
+
I've actually made a lot of compermises, I just don't always voice them.  I personally do not think we've been playing the same game over and over again.
+
 
+
BEN: I want player input, especially early, and especially in a game which I've already said is in part about using lots of tropes/stereotypes.  This is pretty much how the iliadic game went to.  Unless it conflicts with something I really want to do, I will very seriously consider all player suggestions.
+
 
+
JASON: Really, that isnt true Gabe.  I played the game your way for 3 years, never once did we as a group play a game my way.  Every game each player tries to make it their game instead of embracing something new and trying it.  A player might have an initial inclination that they dont want something, but if they never actually try it, they will never know (and thats exactly what happens in every game).
+
 
+
'''Gabe:''' Wait, whats not true?  The game?  What game?  My way?  What is my way???  I've never GMed a game for you.  I don't get what your way is.  Nor do I think there is a certain way.  Each person brings something different to the game, there shouldn't be A WAY, period.  But really what is your way then?  How are we not playing in that way?  Personally I almost always enjoy RPing, but the momemnt someone is like "you are all playing the wrong way, do this" it is no longer fun.  Is that "my way"?  I think if you need to anylze RPing this much it looses some of its fun, its just a game.
+
 
+
'''Gabe:''' Also, I'll be polite this once, but don't tell me that I have or have not made compramises.  I know me, you don't, you don't know what goes on in my head or what I'm thinking.  You may know a lot about comics, rpgs, math, etc, but not me.

I've just purchased tickets for myself and kim for SATURDAY, JULY 19th at 9 PM at the seattle IMAX.  Anyone else who wants to come see THE superhero movie with us on THE big screen, feel free.
+
 
+
KIM: My friends are NOT coming up from Portland, therefore we now have two spare pre-paid tickets to IMAX... who wants them?
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 15:57, 9 July 2008 (MST)trying to convince cheryl to do this still.  she shies away from the opening weekend crowd thing.  but working on it....
+
 
+
BEN: it's at imax, where there is always a sold out show, really, but the seating is such that this isn't really a problem.  Kim and I may actually have two extra tickets if two of our friends don't show (which is likely).
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 17:43, 9 July 2008 (MST) Kate and I are interested!  Ed, let us know if you and Cheryl are in, so we know whether or not we should buy tickets.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 08:19, 10 July 2008 (MST) we're still a probably not, so those tix are yours.  enjoy!
+
 
+
JASON: I got tickets for the midnight opening at the Cinerama.  I am also considering hitting the IMAX with you guys.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 15:59, 14 July 2008 (MST) Are those attending batman on Saturday interested in maybe getting some food before the show?
+
 
+
 
+
JASON: The Tukwila Half Price Books has a ton of books for Shadowrun, both editions.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 15:59, 14 July 2008 (MST) Hmmmm.  Maybe I'll check it out.  I've been meaning to take a look at the newest edition.  I think I have enough 2nd edition books, but then again . . .
+
 
+
JASON: Also, I will be having a massive shindig for mine and Rumi's birthdays on either August 30th or 31st.  I would like to see as many of you jokers as possible attend.  Mark it on your calendar.  I am planning on renting a venue so we have plenty of space for games, Rock Band, and partying.  Does anyone know of a centrally located, reasonably priced, venue?
+
 
+
'''GABE:'''  I'd like to come, I'm trying to be more social.  A central and big location for partying thats cheap?  *insert your mom comment*
+
 
+
KIM:  Oooh, I'll be back in town then, might have a job that weekend, but will try to keep it during reasonable hours so that I can show up and commandeer the potato chip bowl... *nom nom nom*
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 10:28, 15 July 2008 (MST) So, I failed to take seriously the amount of seats available in IMAX and the hunger film-goers have for awesome IMAX quality. All decent showings are sold out for Dark Knight this weekend. Does anyone have spare tickets?

'''GABE:''' We were a little busy that day.

Ben: Matt is gone until the 25th of July, so when is the next session of supers scheduled?
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] -- I was guessing August 1st?
+
 
+
MATT:  August 1, yes.  We'll run supers. Brandon not being there works out well for the particular story, and Ben not being there just means there will be some close shaves!  We can certainly work in a [[Teletraan-7]] prequel if desired.
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 16:33, 7 July 2008 (MST) Not so interested in a prequel for [[Teletraan-7]]. If people would like to establish something I'm fine with simply talking it out and saying "This is now so".
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 17:51, 7 July 2008 (MST) Also, Ed, I should've been more clear that the mysterious, Roomba possessor mentioned above was, in fact, [[Teletraan-7]], so he's been introduced, albeit mysteriously.
