Out of Character Chatter

Well I can say I'm glad to live where I live. It happened from time to time, but it is quite rare.

There was a time in the restaurant industry in the UK when this was perfectly acceptable. Then they made it so hourly paid employees had to opt in to be able to work more than 60 hours. Of course anyone on a salaried contract, like management, could be made to work any amount of hours without right to complain.

@YullyBear Plenty of overtime, so it'll be a pretty great check. Small favors, eh?

@Knifesedgegames I've been a single dad for almost 17 years, so my weeks tended to top out between 40-45 hours. Fortunately, my son can cook and is responsible enough to do so (as well as be home alone). Although I feel like I would do better at this "60 hour weeks" thing about 17 years ago. Lol

I've got some friends who work crazy 60-80 work weeks. Pay is great but the burnout is real. Take care of yourself MaJunior.

Thanks!
Fortunately, this was highly atypical. It's usually a Monday to Friday, 7-9 hour day type job. Maybe the occasional Saturday to make a deadline.

Gonna make for a nice check right before the Holiday though. Lol

That's me. A 70 hour work week and have to travel to boot. It wears on you, that's for sure.

Just checking, so it's Pablo acts next, then Gregory?

Can I take any actions during my turn, or only act hysterically?

Pablo is essentially out of action for 8 rounds, so Gregory is up next. Normally the player loses control of their character to the Keeper during a bout, but I like to let my player roleplay what they're going through, but with your particular brand of madness, you are helpless.

Happy New Year, everyone. May your games be plentiful and your dice rolls be high!

Happy New Year ! May all dice be in your favor ! (wishing for high is quite dangerous, I know a number of RPG where you have to roll the lowest possible)

Ya gotta point!

I am a little lost, and I did not want to clutter the game play area.

Do you have a quick map or even just a short hand drawing of where we went since the tunnel collapsed ?

To me it seemed we took a left turn to enter the mushroom cave and that there was another tunnel going straight.

Thie is the first area you covered

4 is the room with the organ and 8 is the mushroom farm

From 8 you've entered the bone and filth strewn warrens (5) and found the testimonial etched into the wall (6)

Thanks it is clearer, so we can go back near 3 and go south, or go south near 8, explore the tunnels near 6 going down or go east by 6.

And if I'm not mistaken we did not explore all the organ cavern. Correct ?

to clarify, the cave in happened around where the 2 is.

You've explored the tunnels in all directions around 3. 3 is the pitch, where you had to use rope to climb down.

So your options are pretty much back to 8 and explore south, or continue to hunt through the warrens. (5/6)

There is the smooth carved tunnel that headed south after the pitch (3) (you headed west into 4 instead) but you passed the tunnel before you hit the warrens and it seemed to link up.

On Friday 24th I'll be going in for the first of two cataract surgeries (second one in two weeks) This will probably put me out of action for a few days as I'll be avoiding screens, so please bear with me

No problem. Hope recovery is smooth!
