We are home from vacation. Returned to no internet. We expect a technician on Tuesday. Also, my computer finally died. I will see you when I see you.

Cheers,

Hello CDers!

Turtle & I will be leaving for vacation October 24th and returning on November 1st! We've never traveled with a dialysis cycling machine; so, this will be an adventure.

Jocelyn will be camping with Koji for the week; so he might be scarce, too. My other PCs and turtle's PCs are doing their usual studying & training.

Cheers,
Plat

Days have been spent training for home hemodialysis. We should complete training by June.

CDers,

Monday (Cinco de Mayo)... my health took an unexpected dive; I was immediately taken to the ER... then the OR. I had a quiet conversation with God to allow me to stick around for a little bit longer. He said it was okay. I've been in the hospital all week recovering; discharge was Thursday. I am a private person; though, I thought you should all know why I was missing. I am still holding on, still fighting and still trying to keep healthy.

As always, be good, respectful, and kind to one another. Remember we all have our struggles... whether we share them or not. You never know what someone is surviving on the other side of the screen.

Cheers,
Plat

Dear CDers,

Due to a death in the family, I will be traveling. I leave March 29th and will return April 3rd. Just so you know I am still kicking and screaming. Turtle will still be around.

Cheers,

Suggestions & Ideas / Epic Spell Descriptions
Feb 03, 2025, 11:59 AM
I don't usually speak up unless towards Turtle. My voice is small and my impact is minimal. However, I was wandering for ease of researching things from the view of a newer player (new to the game or to CD), if you were willing to include a link to the wiki where the breakdown for the epic spells is explained, their DC's what they do, so forth and so on?

Not a deal breaker, just thought it would help a person navigate. Thank you for considering my idea.

Cheers,
Plat

The internet seems to be up and stable, for now.

Turtle and I are without internet, again. Restoration of services is currently unknown; but it should be back sometime, tomorrow. I am crossing my fingers.

@The Blue Dragons!  @Edge @AnOldFriend @azule @Eidolon (and everyone I forgot!)
RE: Blue Dragon Open House Night

Thank you for the eye-opening role play about the Blue Dragon's branch of the Cormyr Military. I had hoped to collect more information for Rosalind and Evendur while we were there; but there was so much going on, it made that a bit difficult. You have a lovely guild house, of which you have every reason to be proud. Whomever built it did an amazing job. You've put together a pretty nice group and I hope you obtain the DM attention you need and deserve to continue to grow, flourish and have fun.

I also appreciated your patience with Rosalind. She is a curious sort and persistent, especially with things that spark her interest. She will remember you all in her prayers to Tymora that you all train well, sail on great voyages and always return victorious!

Thank you, again, for opening your "home" to us and giving us a peek into your guild hall! And, also, for the interesting role play! I will never engage in a pillow fight with Sandy!

Okay. Thank you!

Is there a standard Item Request Form we can access for DMs and submit at the end of long quest lines?

Turtle and I have been without internet, since yesterday evening. Restoration of service is estimated to be tomorrow. Sometimes, they over estimate outages. We will see.

In any job I have had, accuracy was paramount in every form of communication. I never needed extra skills or cues to recognize OOC chatter. I suppose AI and improved technology have removed the "human" element, too much. It also tells me that there is far too much out-of-character communication if a special color is needed for it.
