I'm up for SotC at your place any time, because you're within walking distance.
(Not that I walk.) I'd like to concentrate on that game right now not because I
have a problem with anything anybody else is running, but simply because I
haven't gamed for a long time until this one and it's a nice simple system that
allows me to ease back into it. The only nights this week that I can't do it
are Tuesday and Wednesday because I have auditions.
I wouldn't worry about nerdleague exploding. We've all been friends for too
long to do that. People will claw at each other a bit, like any group who have
known each other for years/decades/lives, but at the end of the day we're still
gonna be friends. If these guys can stay friends with me, as reclusive and
eccentric as I am, they're not gonna turn on each other over a couple of
misinterpreted comments and scheduling conflicts. These guys have seen me
dressed up as Slash, complete with wig, shades, tophat, and tight leather rock
star pants, and have not made fun of me to my face. We've crashed at each
other's houses and supported each other's endeavours, given each other painful
reality checks when called for, and cried on each other's shoulders. And we're
still a crew. If that ain't a friend for ya, well.....
And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by
from this day to the ending of the world
but we in it shall be remembered-
We few. We happy few.
We band of brothers.
For he today who sheds his blood with me
shall be my brother.
Be he ne'er so vile, this day shall gentle his condition.
And gentlemen in England now abed
shall think themselves accursed they were not here!
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks who fought with us
Upon St. Crispin's Day!
-Henry V
When a man is truly your friend, arguments can come and go. Quirks and flaws
are irrelevant. The sum of the man outweighs his flaws. At the end of the day
your true friend will still be there.

There seems to be confusion as to what exactly we're playing tonight. Jim
really wants to run Ravenloft. Brian, I thought the Star Wars game we were
talking about was for now-passed Saturday?!? We can still create a character
to have one on standby, though.
I'm not trying to stir up yet more Drama in the Nerdleague. My house is
available, but if you guys want to play elsewhere that's fine too. I'd prefer
my house because I also have Audrey with me, but it's NOT absolutely important.
I can make anything work.
As far as I know right now, we're all getting together at my house at 6-7 for
Ravenloft.
Does anyone disagree with that? Did anyone else have anything else planned?
BTW... I just gotta say... And I'm NOT taking sides... Andy just asked if
another night would work for the group so that he can spend more time with his
girlfriend. I haven't seen any threads where he's "making it all about him".
He still showed up last Sunday, and he's still willing to play. I don't know
what the explosion within the Nerdleague is all about, but then again I'm new
to this group and a bit disconnected with it so I don't know all the details.
I never intended to disrupt anything. We can drop SotC or Shadowrun or
anything else I'm GMing if it's really a problem. This is NOT a threat... it
just seems like my game in particular is getting the whole group in a tizzy.
It's been VERY difficult for ALL OF US, trying to get up to nine people at a
time to the same place at the same time for about four hours of gaming. Let's
all be patient, people. Let's all remember we all have schedules we have to
work around. Even me! I've got to wake up at 0430 Monday morning, yet I'm
still running the game every other Sunday night. <-- Not a bitch, just a
reminder.
