The Bay Area Masquerade

This is great Ted, thanks.

What city are you in?

OMG OMG OMG TARA!!!!! I am no where near there but YAAAAAY TARA!!!!

What is the new date for court? Trying to plan around it for an event.

Staff has given Chris and I the books since none of them will be present tonight for various reasons. If it is raining we will be listening up under the CPA on the bench right by the elevator down. If it is a low turnout night I have permission to make it a double eep night!

None of those are matches for Sibihah but YAY!

Did I miss the memorial event? Was it this past Friday not this coming Friday?

Just wanted to make sure...court has been moved to Oct 30 right? If so, I can bring 1 chair.

My thought on it Lindsay would be assume your character just got news that socially things have shifted and proceed to update your own character's opinion (or not) in line with world cannon over a reasonable pace for you.

Firstly, I generally try to make sure that PCs are playable. This means allowing more leeway with PC retainers than NPC retainers. I try to avoid having my NPCs react in a way that would try to push PCs toward more drama, not less. Because of this, I'll generally avoid anything that might have a "c...

My interpretation of Ralph’s post tells me the majority of NPCs will have the world view he described because this is staff's opinion of the topic. Player driven characters are always free to think whatever those characters want to think and act accordingly. Similarly some NPCs may not believe the w...

Ew I don't want wraith goo in the car. Or werewolf fur. It's going to smell like wet ghost dog all week.

(yes we can totally help out)

Please show me, where there is anywhere "punishment" listed for not patrolling? Ginger, I think others have weighed in on this above but I feel like you were asking me directly so I'll go ahead and answer. Chris's quote above really covers this ground already and I +++1 what Allison said. But pleas...

Ralph - I still do not see how deciding to use this feeding ground as a viable downtime action needs to translate into mandatory patrolling downtimes. You can still reap all the benefit of letting people patrol if they want to without imposing a mandatory downtime chore on us as players. You are say...

I am very appreciative of that fact that what I think is fun is NOT the same as what others think is fun. I was one of those players from prior games who experienced the worst parts of feeding ground mechanics and it's derived plots. I'm certainly open to avenues for RP, and if defining feedings gro...

I think we've been hosting court at Toad Hollow lately, so the library parking lot of closest. Happy to help move the table.

I do not anticipate set up taking more than 30 minutes. Since court starts at 10 I plan to set up right after listen up and have the area open in plenty of time for visitors by 9. Sam & Melissa - please bring your tables, table cloths, and chairs. Anthony - Sure, go ahead and bring it. Do you have a...

I just realized there is no reason you can't have your PC volunteer to help out if your PC is the type. So consider that an option to if you want to help, but also want to play your character all night.

Hi All, The activities I have planned for court will probably involve a few stations for people to stop and interact with. I could use 3-4 small tables and at least 2 chairs if anyone happens to have them to lend. I'm also in the market for any volunteers who want to NPC. Sibihah has a legion of gho...

I have already pinged you in the place we call life.

Size king.
