On the flip side I'm free on Sunday now.

Though that said I just got gifted Borderlands 3 for my birthday so I might be about to pull an Irishman :p (though given my internet and this game's truly massive filesize it's probably going to be Monday before my download is finished).

It's ok. I'm even considering postponing the game until further notice since I'm also feeling a bit sick myself and can't focus finishing the actions for the past few days. Might resume balancing the game until the situation here gets better, right now it's getting worse every day.

We'll see. I'll keep you posted, let me know how everyone else is doing.

Yeah, it just arrived in my town/county, and we're pretty rural. Didn't go out for my birthday but instead stayed in with family playing scrabble/poker. They canceled all church services so the locals are flipping out pretty hard. Not that I go to church, but for these people to take that step you know they're spooked.

Postponing the start for now until I'm ready to finish the actions, hopefully situation will get a bit better here again.

Welp. I'm teleworking indefinitely, so I can run mafia. What style shall we go with lads?

@VERTi60 If your postponement won't be too long, I won't host. Good luck out there.

TBH Shade had that CYOR queued, though he bought Borderlands 3 as well.

The more pertinent question is are you going to run your CYOR now in this gap?

Unlikely, I'm not particularly inclined to want to go out of my way to host a game right now.

Then I guess Jeod can host if he wants to. I still vote for a CYOR, but I'm open to most ideas.

Yep, I can do a more heavily theme based CYOR style game if it comes down to that. I wouldn't mind doing a Cyberpunk theme for one.

Cyberpunk the genre or Cyberpunk the actual series? Because boy do I have some memes from when I used to play Shadowrun with my D&D group.

It would basically amount to the genre regardless.

You guys want to be viruses? I was thinking along the lines of the Ausgleich RPG only with players taking on the role of nations deciding how to handle an epidemic with consequences that may lead to human extinction.

Honestly that's probably too complicated unless you just rip off one of the existing video games 1 for 1. Also given my recent conversation with Shade ended up with him declaring you can't prove he's the one spreading the virus so no court can actually convict him (if he hypothetically got the virus) I feel as if we'd meta argue too much.

If you really want to do a virus game, and make it an RPG, maybe make it team virus vs team researcher where both the virus levels up with new symptoms but the researchers can level up too with new treatments. That's probably a lot easier to balance and work with really.

Third party time travel doctor who's only treatment is amputation (serial killer).

It depends on the virus, but without an effective mean of determining who has a virus and who doesn't, you also have to prove they knew they had the virus, they're the only person you could have run into who had the virus, and that you could only get or have gotten the virus from human contact. 

There's a legal process to convict someone of a crime in which an investigation to collect evidence is usually conducted first.

I'm not interested in having the argument again, I'm just saying there would be arguments if we did it. Not just between you and me, but likely between lots of people with the GM included.

Working on a game. Give a few days to draft and optimize and I’ll have a signup thread by the end of the week.

@Category 5 Hurricane or @Louis if they wanted to join up now, since they were just in the last game.

I figure some of you have better ways of getting a hold of @Sunflowerand @rubeci also than this forum.
