Looks good so far. Also if anyone has questions about the set up feel free to ask.

This sounds like a right laugh. I'll peruse the rulebook and see if I can't put something together soon.

Here is my character. The only questions I have are if you think the flaws are rated right. I'll have to remath if not, but I'm cool with that.

Also still gotta do the "Crossover Adventure" and my final aspect.

Looks good so far, but I think you should have one more refresh.

Alright, I'll redo the math and see if I'm correct. Thank you.

Okay, first time trying this system - I think I have the skills down right, but if someone could check and correct me, that'd be amazing.

By my count you have spent 35 skill points, which puts you five points over.

Since everything was lost due to server error I'll try to recap what was lost: We decided that the day for the game would be Tuesday, all posted characters were completed, and we were discussing how we were going to do the game. So far I've heard Team Speak, Discord, and Skype be suggested.

I don't know what has been discussed about playing/recording but let me throw in my 2 cents. If you want to record the session there are a few methods available.

If you want to record you can use G-Hangouts, OBS, or a Mumble if you can find a server. Another possible way to record is to just use skype but have everyone record their own audio in Audacity and send it to an Editor (I can do it for some dosh money if you need someone). If you not going to record any one of your suggestions on top of the usual suspects will work just fine.

Post by: jfan999 on June 26, 2016, 12:41:00 AM
I'm not sure how folks feel about recording  but I was planning to use audacity to catch incoming audio, and a second computer to grab my side of things. That way it won't matter what we connect with.

I've got no problems with recording, however if you're looking for software for recording, Apowersoft's Audio Recorder's pretty good for mixing external and internal channels into a single track.

That said, if you want editing done you can toss it my way - I've been video/audio editing for a while now and I'll have a decent bit of downtime after the recording.

We're using hangouts on air to record the podcast now and it seems to be pretty reliable instead of or in addition to a tape syncing process.  You just need to verify a youtube account to record and it gets saved directly to your youtube channel.

I'm cool with using Google Hangouts, though we could do the audacity thing too if you want. I'm down for whatever.
Title: Re: S.C.A.B. Base Raiders game
Post by: Nayt on June 26, 2016, 10:09:12 PM
I am ambivalent about recordings. I've long since fallen out of love with serious RPG podcasting; so long as we're not doing that, I'm cool with it.
Title: Re: S.C.A.B. Base Raiders game
Post by: jfan999 on June 26, 2016, 10:59:27 PM
I record games mostly so I don't have to take notes while I'm running things. I don't plan to post any recordings, except for the players if you guys are interested.
Title: Re: S.C.A.B. Base Raiders game
Post by: Sabwones on June 27, 2016, 07:30:23 AM
I'm happy with whatever. So, for timing, are we set for this Tuesday? If so, do we have a time? I should be perfectly flexible however it shakes out.

As much as I'd love to start tomorrow, I've been sick all weekend and haven't had time to finish my prep for the first adventure. But if everyone would like to get together to do crossovers and some roleplaying to establish the situation before the first adventure I'd be down for that. I will be available at 6:30 PST (9:30 EST) tomorrow if that works for a start time.

9:30 is fine by me. My Skype name is jerkfacemcjerk, feel free to add me any time before then.

Just in case people worder where I am, I'm napping briefly before we start, as it'll be 2.30am my time.

Not a problem per se, just a heads up.

General FYI, after being viciously shafted by my prospective landlord, I'm now in a state of flux until I find a place to live, so consider out of this Tuesday's lore building session unless I pop up on Skype to the contrary.

I feel like this needs to be a white card in Cards Against Humanity.

But for real, I hope everything turns out well.

Your borderline sadistic amusement at that turn of phrase has brightened up an otherwise crappy day.

I should have somewhere with a temporary roof, but in regards to Internet and the like, I have no idea.

Thanks for the heads up, I hope things work out for you finding a place.

Right, should have a place taken care of now for a few weeks while I find an estate agent that isn't utterly sodding incompetent.

@jfan999 Okay, I will make a character soon.  Just need to reread the character creation rules.

Post by: jfan999 on July 06, 2016, 11:21:03 AM
@Webmetz Just a heads up our first session will be next week on Tuesday starting at 6:30 PST (9:30 EST), so your character will need to be ready before then.

Now that I have my work (mostly) done for the day, I am opening up the rule books now and starting to build.
