Out of Character Chatter

You can use OOC tags in the game thread for asking questions but for off topic chat, this is your spot

OK we're off. Gameplay thread can now be found at the top of the forum. Post as your character

How do you want us to format speaking vs whispering and stuff like that?

My preference is for Bold for speech (but happy with the blue some have used) and Italics for whispering. You can also use private notes for something only for me (and I tend to use these if characters get seperated) or I might use spoilers if it's not game breaking.

Alright... I think my sheet is updated with everything I'm taking. Nothing should be terribly heavy.

Decided to bring this to OOC since it may prompt player discussion:

I would suggest using the rope, and perhaps the first person can drive in pitons (roughly every three feet?) to double as handholds, so that the last person (whoever has the best stats for it) can untie the rope and climb down with the aid of the holds?

That way we don't lose or leave the rope, and if pitons are roughly every three feet that will use 6 of my 12. (I'd say leave those, so if we have to backtrack it should be a little easier for someone to climb back up with the rope.)

Thoughts?

Sounds good.

Max as good strength but not much dexterity

nope climb 20% for me

I'm in Paris, France.

@YullyBear Does Max need his cane, or is it just a style thing for him?

It is just a style, and may help to soften people if he convince them he is lame.

I am assuming that to grapple with Leland, I would need to roll fighting (brawl). My intention was to either hold him down until he got better or until someone could examine him. Though with that roll it doesn't matter.

A grapple would normally be a contested roll, so you’d both brawl and the highest success wins.

To make sure I'm doing this right, the sanity thread has me at -6. Do I subtract 6 from my original sanity total of 30, making my current sanity 24?

Correct.
The indefinite insanity threshold - how much you can lose in a day without 'losing it' is 1/5 of your starting sanity for the day, so in your case 6

Apologies for being away. 63 hours of work in five days (and no days off) was unexpected. Dragging, but tomorrow is back to normal.

Wow, sorry to hear that, I hope you had compensation for it !

Ahh reminds me of my youth . 65-70 hours every week were the norm.
