I'm pretty much done programming everyone's tokens (I've still got a
few more ritual macros to do). I might finish today (although I doubt
it, I'm getting ready for my trip tomorrow, plus I just got Tomb of
Horrors in the mail) but if not I'll finish when I get back on 8/1.

Here's the question: We determined Wednesdays and Thursdays were good
for everyone. I'm going to make an executive decision and say
Wednesdays are when we'll play. (This decision is based purely on my
love of NBC's Thursday night lineup).

Here's the question: Ben, you said you're leaving on the 5th of
August. Would you be able to play that Wednesday night (the 4th)? If
so, would everyone be will able to start then? We'd start around 7:00
Central and probably play 3-4 hours. If Ben's got to get up early for
a flight or something, I'm willing to keep it to 3 hours for the first
session - I'd really like to get started sooner than later though.

Wednesdays are good for me, and I can play then if anyone else can.

Status Update:
 
I'm back from the wilderness, I'll be finishing programming PC Tokens today. So far the 5th player I mentioned hasn't gotten a character done, so we've got two options as I see it -
 
Chris mentioned he had another player he mentioned who might be able to play (but I think he was only available on Thursdays). If anyone knows someone who would be interested in playing a 5th character (and can get me a Character Sheet in by tomorrow) let me know and we'll be set.
 
Otherwise, I say we just go ahead with four PCs for the time being, and if we can get a 5th later we'll incorporate them into the storyline. I'll just level down the Encounters to be appropriate for four instead of five.  
 
I say we meet on Skype by 7:00 PM CST on Wednesday (Chris and Brian might want to show up a few minutes early so we can familiarize you with the token/macro format we use).
 
As far as Skype is concerned, I think I'm just "josh.ervin", so you can look me up and send me a request so I'll have everyone as a contact. As far as Maptools is concerned, I think you just need my IP Address (98.200.90.254) and the password (which will be "blah") to connect to the server.
 
I'm looking forward to playng, and I'll see you guys then.

I tagged my friend about playing and he said he's 70%. I'm actually
playing in his game tonight, so I assume he'll have more time to
consider it tomorrow.

I am back home from traveling and ready to rock. I'll log on ~30
minutes early and get myself set up tomorrow; if you still need that
5th character, I can whip one up.

Cool. I think we'll just stick with four characters for now. I spent some time today powering down some encounters to make them doable for 4 characters, and most of the time it's only a level's difference in difficulty anyway, so it should be good. Four players will make things run a little faster anyway. I'll talk to you guys tomorrow.
