Just to say apologies, my grandmother is in the hospital after a very serious stroke. I've been going and forth taking my mother. I expect I will be delaying things. I will put up an announcement when I have time.

No need to apologize, taking care of your family comes first. I hope things get better, much strength to you in this time.

Day 1 is up. The game has started.

Day 2 will be open in the next 24 hours. Both day 1 and day 2 can then be posted in, rather than just day 1.

Please do bring any pregame threads to an end. (No rush, but start aiming for one - thanks!)

Flagging that mechwarriors, if they are interested in doing Patrols - capitalized because there's a system for that in this game, yay! - mechwarriors may want to track the Patrol discussion thread at https://planetsfall.fallenash.com/viewt ... 3071#p3071.

Patrolling isn't required but those who are interested in doing it should put requests in their PF at least, and also in that discussion thread if possible. Us organizing ourselves to make the schedule of patrols easier on Yuusha sounds like a good goal, and there are only so many patrol slots per day, so lively discussion should help make sure everyone is getting opportunities that they want.

2 slots per day, with three choices of double timeslot.

After a thumbs up from me you roll to see if something "happens". If something doesn't happen you can spend a PC Token to make something happen, if you wish.

Either way, I suggest bringing another PC (to make it 2 PC threads) so you have someone to interact with if you don't find anything or the encounter doesn't interest your character.

How did you find the first week?

Are events okay? Too complex? Too linear? Just right?

Feedback welcome.

Good week I think. I tend to enjoy Yuusha's events and the second week is looking interesting.

I also felt like it was a good week, I just didn't get to engage nearly as much as I wanted to. Kudos for providing so many options for relevant skills in the events - I think that's nice for making more people feel like they have at least some opportunity to be impactful. Much better than everyone just going "Edge point and YOLO," in my opinion.

Agreed 100% about skills and feeling useful. That was the intention. It was also a reason I gave folks a rank of tactics/small arms or admin, as well as a knowledge skill. Tactics assists directly in BOSS combats. Small arms will be helpful if combat characters ever end up in a combat outside their mechs, admin is a useful all round skill for support staff and the knowledge skill gives me something I can throw into the mix when I'd like to guarantee absolutely everyone can try to help with something.

Would someone be interested in a D5 EE/LE thread playing Poker, maybe with small stakes? I think about units of maybe 1 to 10 C-Bills?

I'd be interested. Poker is better with a few players anyways :)
