Mundaniamatics

Like the rest of the world, I had difficulty sleeping last night. Playing Heroes of Might & Magic III for a few hours seemed to help, and I'd like to thank niallm for giving me a new addiction.

Work was quiet this morning, no marketing folk, so I'm working on general maintenance stuff and catching up on the email that came in over the holidays, and trying hard to stay awake, which is harder than I'd expect. I don't much expect this to change over the afternoon.

Plot Whammy

I had my plotlines for the Friday evening Age of Legends game completely whammied by inannajones and puritybrown, both of whom solved reasonably large problems in a couple of seconds, as opposed to the several hours of discussion and solving that usually happens. So having started at 19:30, I was out of prepped material by 21:30. Very undignified.

My pseudo-resolution for the year involves more organisation, and a large part of this is going to be in the D&D region - having more material onhand, even if it's not 100% prepared. I'm going to take time over the evenings of this week and at the weekend to sort out current plotlines, timelines, where things are going, and where things can impact, and get everything current sorted into a binder or binders like I have for the Kingfisher's Way campaign.

I might try doing some numbers too, but at present rates, NPCs, creatures, and opponents move in and out too fast for me to actually draw up stats for all of them - and most of the time, the stats don't get used anyway. Still, it would be good to know what opponent and neutral capabilities are, especially with some of the more interesting plotlines coming up.

Meta: Filtered Material

If you want to be on my DM Filter and you're not, comment here, please. If you're not sure, I just posted an entry on that filter, clearly titled as such. If y'ain't seein' that, then most likely y'ain't on it.
