Scheduling
So I intend to start this up sometime this summer, perhaps in Sean S.’s Star Wars slot once that concludes. That would make it every-other Monday.
Would an every-other-Monday game work for y’all?
Fine with me, as long as it’s the every-other-Monday I’m not running my other game.
I’m sure appropriate alternating scheduling can be arranged, especially since it looks like Ree won’t be starting a game anytime soon after all.
All righty, it looks like we’re pretty much set for an every-other-monday schedule, alternating with Mr. Dorbin’s game, once Sean’s Star Wars game (and my current “practice” 4e game) concludes. I don’t think mine will last more than one or two more sessions. I don’t know how close Sean’s is. June is a crazy month, though, so I expect maybe we’ll get this thing off the ground late June or early July.
The Mondays that I’m not running my game are June 27th and July 11th. Since I’m not going to be able to run the 20th or the 4th, I’d really like to squeeze in one last off-Monday game the 27th to avoid a month-and-a-half break for us, so I vote July 11, but if you’re raring to go it’s not the end of the world from my viewpoint.
Are we going to do a character design session before the first actual game, or just try to work it out here? I’m cool with either, especially since it sounds like working out complementary skills and concepts is more important that mechanical fiddling.
I would be delighted to get everyone together for a concept-building ask-matt-about-the-world session, especially as we have two players who are completely new to the setting, and one player who is completely new to table-top gaming.
The character-concept session can be any time, really, that works for everyone. Is there a Sat. afternoon, perhaps, or a Sunday that people have free? Should we schedule it for one of the mondays prior to July 11?
As a tentative start date, I’m ok with July 11th. That gives us a little over a month to conceive of our characters and for Sean to wind down his game etc. Really, though, it depends on Sean. I don’t want to rush him into ending his game early :)
It’s a bit late notice, but would everyone be available sometime this Sat. the 25th to get together and work out characters etc. for this game?
If not, I’m thinking Monday the 11th of July will be a “preliminary setup” session, getting people finalized on their characters, getting background ties worked out if any, etc. with the game to officially kick off two weeks after that on Monday the 25th of July.
