Grandma got eaten by a bugbear
Because the drat thing is C.E.
Some people say there's no alignment
But as for me and grandma we believe!


This is the new MIA thread, where you post why you won't be posting in your games.

Bonus points if you post it in song form.

Repost:

From the 28th of July until the 10th of August (that's 14 days) I will be on holiday in Portugal. I'm staying in a fairly tourist-friendly area, so with luck there should be an internet cafe nearby, and I will try my drat hardest to get there once a day for ten minutes to post. Failing that, every other day. If I don't post by the end of Monday 1st August, you should probably consider me unable to post and kill/npc my characters as you see fit.

quote:

There was a player named cell
Who was going to a country hot as hell
He will try to post every day
But his characters may be slay'd
Will he survive his holiday? Only time will tell

Also coming soon: "Will you wait for my characters", an emotional message delivered through the medium of interpretive dance.

Wait, something is wrong.
Winson is a jerk
Busy at his work
Things are scary
Kind of hairy
So from posting he will shirk.

STRONG as an OX and TWICE as SMART
I tell all this to you in advance,
So you won't beat me and burn holes in my pants.

From the 31st of July to the 13th of August;
I'll be traveling to the U.K.: Scotland or Bust!
I will have some Internet,
But it won't be a lot.
It's like 3₤ per hour -- that blows!
Whoever came up with that should be shot.

I have recently applied to many games,
But stop -- don't assault me with flames!
After I return, I'll be lazy and crap.
Just sitting on my rear end and chillin' in TG,
I'll probably even a game,
Like 3.5, or 7th Sea.

So please NPC me while I'm gone,
Or if you need my input,
E-mail me at cowoflight@gmail.com.

I seem to have lost a fan on my computer, so my posting will be slower until that is fixed. It shouldn't cripple me, but I may not be my usual self.

He still plans to post normally

I'll be posting erratically in Mage for the next 10 days or so, and even more erratically in other games. If you feel the need to kill my characters off, do so, no hard feelings =D

I am sleepy. This is my 25th hour awake. I can not think of song. When I go home, I am going to sleep. That being said, my games will not be updated tonight. I apologize. If by chance my sleep is cured and I wake up and it is still night, then they may be updated. But this is advanced warning.

So the network will be bad in...

My posting may be sporadic or even cut out entirely until about the 20th. This ghastly 56k connection will possibly kill me.

I'm moving at the end of this month, and may lose computer access for anywhere up to a month.

I'm only really running my own game at this point, but it made me feel more important to post here.

I may be able to post from other computers, but this will not be a good/permanent solution.

If you don't have internet access installed the day you get your apartment, you're not man enough to be my friend.
