is there a way to bridge ventrilo and teamspeak?

Probably not any way that would be easier than just downloading one or the other.

[SquirrelWizard]

oh yeah, and in anticipation of our adventures ahead, I thought I might post this...

Neato. I'm happy to set up either a channel or another server for this, if needed. Also, is there any indication of what time of day and week, and in which timezone, we'd be meeting up?

I was going to try and figure something out. The Time Zone issue should make things interesting, if nothing else. - What's D&D when someone isn't tired out their mind, though?

Probably a weekend, as that's about when I expect most will be able to play.

[Corgatha Taldorthar]

My apologies, my intestines have entered into full revolt, and I'm not going to really be online until things subside.


Hoping to be back in a day or two,

Note to all my prospective players, and to anyone else who might be interested:

I have successfully set up my own chat channel on llearch's chat server. If you do not have a chat client (like me), it can be accessed via this link (or simply find llearch's forum signature and click on the link there). Simply replace "lazy sod" with a name I will recognize, and login. You will be dropped into the comicfrenzy channel. To get to mine, simply type /join TechD&D , and you will enter my channel. Alternatively, you can shortcut to my channel by replacing the "#comicfrenzy" with "#TechD&D" at the login screen (be sure to leave the #).

I will be in this channel as often as I can. If I am not there, try again later.


And on another note, I believe we should all take a moment and observe a tribute to the creator of Dungeons and Dragons, Gary Gygax. I think this will be a refreshing way to start everyone off with all the D&D sessions, as the veterans will well appreciate the tribute, and the newbies will see what the lives of us veterans is like, and perhaps even learn the greatest lesson for the D&D player:

"Are you sure you want to do that?"

A Tribute to Gary Gygax.

[SquirrelWizard]

just wondering how are we gonna coordinate this? separate sight? endless screaming on the forums?

[techmaster-glitch]

What do you mean by coordinate, and who are you talking about?

(and you did read the tribute, right? )

[SquirrelWizard]

coordinate as in when we're available, what times we should be getting on, ect...

[techmaster-glitch]

Well, you should be doing that with your DM, as far as I know.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Note that the channel name is not case sensitive - so /join #techd&d will work just as well as /join #tEcHd&D...

[Cogidubnus]

If everyone who I'm DM'ing could PM me with times that would work for them, I'd be much obliged.

[bradypodidae]

Just a heads up that techmaster-glitch has been doing a little recruiting and I am considering joining his party. I have no nerd-cred, zero, nada, zilch. The only thing I know of DnD is what I saw/heard on JAVGW. This will be the first time I have even looked in a Player's Handbook. So if I do decide to join tech's game, dust off all the old "noob" remarks and warm them up! Hopefully, if I do play, the worst that will happen is I will provide epic comic foil.


...and whats with tech's insistence I wear a "red shirt?"

[SquirrelWizard]

its merely a mark of honor.

As the shirt is the color of blood, all new players wear it as a mark of their newblood status.

... Squirrel, why not just be honest, and admit it's the hallmark of disposable members of a team

hush you! If we don't encourage an aura of mystery through our various rituals, then just anybody can join our ranks...

[Cogidubnus]

Alright - looking at my schedule, and the general vibe of things so far, I'd like to start sometime on Friday - preferably early, so that the Box isn't staying up all night, which is to say around noonish, if all can make it.

[SquirrelWizard]

be that noonish eastern time?

[Cogidubnus]

be that noonish eastern time?

I'm central here, so that'd be about 1:00 eastern, methinks.

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?day=5&month=2&year=2010&p1=64&p2=0&p3=179&p4=137

Says that 1200 CST is 1300 in NY and 1000 in LA, and 1800 in London.

I'm usually in transit around that time - I don't leave work until about half five on a Friday, so won't be home until 6:30 or 7. So you can probably ease that back a bit later, if you want.

Or I can leave early. That's also an option. ;-]

[Cogidubnus]

Unless you very much want to, we can start later. If I'm reading these clocks right, that should be about 2PM, then. Which works out well.

[Keklily]

I'm interested in playing under Techmaster's supireority! (is NOOB at D&D but will try and learn rules and stuffs)

[Cogidubnus]

Just putting a post here reminding my group that we're going to be playing today, at around 1:00 central or so. If you can make it, please do!

[bradypodidae]

What the heck; sign me on, Tech... newbies ahoy!

[Lisky]

Question for Cog: any ideas when we're going to shoot for our next session?

[James StarRunner]

Dang... I wish I had time for this.

[Cogidubnus]

Question for Cog: any ideas when we're going to shoot for our next session?

This weekend sometime, I imagine. Saturday, perhaps?

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Ah...

I have flights out on Saturday, I think. So I'm likely not going to be around then. :-/

[Cogidubnus]

Well, we can do it earlier, if that works for you. Like I've said before, when everyone tells me when they can do it, I can plan for what time it's going to be.

We'll try for weekly, but that isn't always possible. If people will send me a PM of when is a good time, I'll do my best to make sure that the most people can make it.
