I would like to join in in wishing you a very happy birthday. I hope your day today was awesome and that you were able to relax.

Introduction JPatt

(laugh), oh thank you all, this whole week has been/is very busy, I'm not getting a chance to rest until maybe Saturday so I'm very low-key in the forum games and general posting at the moment, it can't be helped, sorry. It wasn't really awesome and I definitely didn't get to relax but I won't go into it, it hasn't been awful.


I did get permission from an RPG company to compile a PDF of their official archetypes (classes) for one of their RPGs, to release as a free fan supplement, to share with other fans and GMs, and they will even host it on their site as an "unofficial official" resource for the game, so that's pretty neat, and I get my name on it, though it will have the company's copyright block, so it's technically their property.

That sounds prety good. I hope you have a lot of fun compiling all that information. Glad your day was not awful.

What is up JPatt, are you ill, have you seen a doctor? I hope you recover quickly let us know if there is anything we can do. Thanks.

I was wondering if you were interested or not in running another scenario or starting a campaign for Be A Super Hero. I know you showed interest in it. Maybe when you get feeling better you will start a game?

JPatt Introduction

Thanks all.

The past few weeks and foreseeable month is booked nearly solid for me, going back and forth to a nearby town 30 mins away every few days, wheeling my uncle around to his appointments, going to my own, taking my gramma to hers, because my uncle doesn't want to sit in the hot car, because my aunt works, etc. Went shopping with and for gramma yesterday and she's getting dementia and did some things that upset me. Most of this is why I've barely been able to post hardly anywhere except a few "sweet spots" I've managed here and there, I've had to choose, at the expense of other places (apologies for those) - had a bunch of other online stuff that is dropped dead in its tracks for all this too. I know none of it is like what most people deal with on a normal daily basis even perhaps, but I'm not anywhere near used to it and don't have the faculties built up to deal with it like that all at once, continually.


While it's possible I'm having a really bad reaction, as I am on meds for anxiety, I'm thinking I may have gotten food poisoning, maybe from either some spinach that I ate on its "sell by date" my cousin got from the store where he works or some tea I had in a jug from my other uncle's restaurant, though it was unsweetened. I'm close to being dehydrated right now I think, though I took some Pepto Bismol and had some food and am drinking ice water and *good* tea and such, and am feeling a little better. I'm hoping this is a couple day thing. Thanks again everyone.

I don't know exactly how you feel but I have a grandfather who has leukemia. My grandmother stills smokes at her late age even after having more than three heart attacks, I lost count.

I am going to their house with my 5 year old son for the fourth. It is very sad to see such proud and capable people be reduced by such things with old age and have no way to fight it face to face.

I guess that is just the way it is though, you know. You do what you can but at some point we all succumb. It is a really sad thing and the main reason I don't want to have any more children. I don't want to bring any more people into a world were such things happen.

Augh, just woke up, this week is going to be another not good one. But yah, I know what you mean Oli. My uncle I have to wheel around has COPD and emphy empha... Whatever, and still smokes. All my family does except for one or two people - I've managed to avoid that at least I guess, the direct part at least.

I'm going to try to go to my other uncle's today for 4th, I made big bowls of lime jello with mixed fruit, one bowl normal sweet and the other sugar-free and Splenda - it was all I could do to not eat them last night, I tasted them to make sure they were good, I don't make food much.

Re Superhero, I can't think that far ahead with this stuff going on but I might run a game if people are still interesting in trying a superhero one - JayBee's system is workable but a little too random for my taste, so I'd use a version of something different for the rules, but still one without a whole lot of fiddliness but a little more room for customization, I think.
