KOTF OOC Thread

[Potocello]

Hello everyone! Happy holidays!

I am interested in joining KotF, are there any characters available to take?

[Braden]

I believe we'll be doing a run of a few Generals (RGB's) after the holiday break when we restart.

KnD - hope you come back soon to the game as well.

[Ramses II CP]

Hey guys, posting from my parent's house, so here's my deal; I got sick, had to go to the hospital. Doc decided to do a procedure so I was there for three days. My wife took time off and stayed with me while our daughter was with my parents. It was really no big deal, just sucks that it happened this time of year.

When we got home our house had been broken into and vandalized/robbed. Not really robbed because it was done by someone we know who, to be blunt, was just being a %&$#&$^ unimaginable nut case. My computers were the real target, there was some minor damage and petty vandalism otherwise but nothing of consequence was taken except my machines and some associated hardware.

The guy was caught. He almost had to know he would be, and some of my gear is seemingly intact, but I'm effectively computerless at home until I can get things put back together. We're wrapping up our family holiday stuff and we're going on a trip for a few days for New Years. I may be able to get something up and working before then due to some last minute shopping and gifts, and I may not, but I do have a reliable backup of my data intact so it's just a matter of finding the time and energy to put things back together.

My health is absolutely fine, but Xmas and the whole situation has been crazy. I dunno what else to say except Happy Holidays!

Yeesh, I hope this isn't related to that Frontroom thread you posted some time ago, although I suspect otherwise. Glad you and the family are okay, Ramses.

Great news. I'll check out the rules more so I won't be a complete fool when I get around to playing.

Ouch! and I thought my family having Chicken Pox over this week was bad

Two children with Chicken Pox over Christmas just doesn't seem too bad now...SO glad to hear your better now and that the visit to hospital was only short.

Good luck man...see you soon (virtually).

[Braden]

Good plan, as always getting the mods installed and checking their running ok are the most important. I'd try to get up to speed on with Council stuff as well if I was you as the politic side of this game got quite complex a little while ago.

Yikes! Well, at least you've got a trip to look forward to and relax on. I hope the fates are kind to you for the foreseeable future.

[Marcus Agrippa]

Yeah Merry christmas and crazy new year to you all and hope you all recover quick from your ailments eg. drink, spicy food, falling in the snow, wild girls, angry wives , hangovers .

Also Ramses hope your back to your usual tricks soon mate.

[Zim]

Hope things are better soon Ramses.

Just to let everyone know, I'm working on some plans for KOTF for the New Year.

Should we be scared?

[Braden]

Nahhhh...fear is for the weak..

[deguerra]

happy holidays and new year to all.

must admit i've not been very involved with KotF of late, but I see its a common sentiment. Let's see what the new year brings.

[Braden]

Well, work has blocked these forums for me so my input will be reduced in 2010. However, I'm still eagerly awaiting a restart!

[Zim]

Alright, we're getting further and further into the New Year. I'm going to try to contact Ramses again. If I can't get ahold of him I'll go ahead and move forward one turn to get those rgbs for the new players. Then we can decide what to do about the remainder of Prince Louis' term (continue waiting, appoint or elect a surogate to finish the reign, etc).

[Braden]

Sounds like a plan Zim

Zim-bada-bim!

Excellent! Can't wait to start playing

[Master Magic Mage]

Hey, this rpg looks good. I've done a few rpgs in the past, so i'll like to join this. What spots are open for me to take?

[Braden]

We're just waiting for Zim to get back with the save and we'll be releasing some Avatars for use.

Sounds good, can't wait.

[Zim]

Sorry for the wait everyone, work had been eating up my time but I'll move things forward tonight after my twelve hour shift..

[Zim]

New save!

https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/local...id=199&id=5178

RGBs recruited in:
Zaragoza
Valencia,
Marseille
Rennes Caen
Frankfurt
Metz

All settlements that didn't have a general in them (to make it easier for people picking rgbs, the only general in each of those settlements is up for grabs).

We need to figure out what to do for the rest of the term. I was thinking we could have an emergency session to elect someone, although maybe noone would want to run for a short term.

[Braden]

Any news from Ramses? Must admit that with him stating about illness etc can't help feeling a little worried.

(yeah, soppy bugger aint I)

[Braden]

Unfortunately, I still can't run for Seneschal as my HDD is still not SATA set (meaning no pictures from in-game, or rather impractical anyway). Other than that, being Prince I don't think that it'll be good IC.

[Zim]

Nothing yet, but I'm sure he's busy right now. Hopefully everything's going alright with him.

[Zim]

Anyone out there?

[Braden]

Boo!

I'm here (well, I visit each day).

We gunna do summit?

[Zim]

I was hoping to start things back up but it seems a bit lonely in here.

[Cecil XIX]

If you'll forgive me for saying so Zim, KotF seems to be going the way of LotR. It seems we need to do some soul searching.
