First Session Aftermath

[Progenitor]

Hi all.

I was really glad to play the first session. It was nice hearing
you'all, even if it felt weird not seeing you and all.

I've updated the Group a bit: there is a log of the chat accessible
through the Session Logs page, and I've updated the "Using OpenRPG"
page to include details on how to roll Ars Magica dice in OpenRPG.

Let me know if there is anything more that needs changing/updating -
or edit things on your own.

As I said on the Etiquette page, I'd appreciate it you'all could give
me feedback, so I'll have a clue on how to make the game more fun for
all of us. So, specifically:

What I Enjoyed Most in the Session: Aside from actually getting to
play this, I guess.... the use of Intuition of the Forest to compare
between the two places. I didn't think of that before-hand, it was a
good idea.

What I Enjoyed Least in the Session: Aside from the technical
difficulty with understanding Skype-talk... probably me not being
prepared enough with some of the details you were asking for.

I enjoyed the game, the problem i had was in the start i had to change
PC to another place to hear you and disturb less, and during that time
something very bad (stupid but bad) happent here and i could not
focuss my mind on the game and i nearly could not understand why we
were going and where. But after arrive there i could start to get the
historyand start to participate. Yes, the Intution of the Forest was a
good idea and the mage casting Aura of nobles presence inside of the
Housewas a very good thing also(omg he could Cast it :D i was so shy
to cast something). I loved the Low level of Arts that we have, made
the Low level spells become really nice spels, and was much better see
that On, during the game, each point in the Roll was important.

and the Mage talking to the Chief of the house was nice also, when he
said that we Represent the Bad Spirits, that was very nice. I cannot
say more i was tooo Shy in the game, and had the Troubles in the
start, but i loved the Session.

Maybe 1 friend of mine will ask to play here If you have still slots.
But i am not 100% sure, i will talk to him, more.

I did enjoy the session :).

On the bad side, I had some trouble adapting to Skype, I felt a bit
awkward. Hopefully that will fade out once we get used to it. I also
had some trouble playing my character as I envisioned it: I feel I
will need to mellow his attitude down a bit :).

On the good side, I was really happy to start the saga and it seems to
me the storyline has lots of potential. What I liked most where
Tiberius' pins: they're quite usefull but I can't help finding them
slightly ridiculous in a very funny way.

Anyways, big thanks to Yair to set it all up and hope to see you again
on Friday!

You're just too good a person. :)

Did he say Tiberius' pins were ridiculous??? That's it, you're a dead
man now... ;)

Anyway, it was a fun session, but Skype is kind of limited in that you
cannot have side conversations like a normal session would allow, for
example when Maximus and Tiberius were left back at the camp and Darko
went exploring. Maximus and I fixed this by handling SIDE
conversations through the written media, and I did the same when
talking OOC with all of you, but using Skype rather then the OpenRPG
chat window.

Other than that, I do agree that the plot seems to have potential, but
I was still a bit lost in regards to the geography of the place.

Loved the characters, and the bit where Maximus asked about the
library was TOO funny! Very aloof and obsessed indeed hahaha! Darko's
Intuition of the Forest use was quite inventive indeed, I liked that.

Oh and I apologize if Tiberius came off as a bit... uptight and
arrogant? He was just annoyed at having to be part of some "gauntlet"
to be accepted when clearly there was a previous agreement. Also,
investigating means he is wasting time he could be using setting up
his lab and working on creating more pins... I mean, more enchanted
items!!!


In the end, it was lots of fun, and I look forward to meeting you all
this Friday.


Laters!
