Title: Weekend Warriors Mercenary Company
Post by: Tankerman on September 25, 2009, 05:17:11 PM
The bottom line is this: I can only play on weekends.
 
I want a regular gaming group with which I can play primarily on weekends. The group can be focused on anything ranging from plotting and scheming, to intellectual and scholarly debate, to mercantile ventures, to just good ol' orc bashing. As long as it is continuing, relatively long-term (long enough for our characters to actually know eachother relatively well), and has good roleplay, anything is interesting. Bear in mind, though - I play a warrior-wizard of Hoar. So seedy criminals might not need to apply.

RL has me severely reduced in game times, but I might be able to manage a regular once a week thing on a weekend. I would need to roleup something new, but a static group that does not require me on every night of the week would get me to do it. :P

I usually can't get too involved in anything precicely for the same thing as above. So yeah, if you start it and you play arround the same time i do, then i'll join you.

Cool! Looks like we have an idea going, then. What are your time zones? We should probably drop onto IRC asap to discuss.

Will be holding the #Weekend channel open on IRC on and off for anyone interested. As previously stated, any concepts that are reasonably on par with my time, and cooperation-oriented, are welcome.

Is it alright if members are to log and play at anytime, but only really committed to plotting/whatever during weekends? I'd like that, for weekends have most of my attention. But still, I log during the week. I might be joining if so.

I'd be up for something similar to Mr. Banana. I log hours during the weekdays, but would be involved in plot-type business on the weekends. Still, I wouldn't mind a regular group.

That would be all right with me, of course. I mean, the whole point would just to have some sort of focal point for those of us with irregular/weekend playing times so that we can get that quality RP. If you can manage to log on other times, then great - you'll only get to my level faster that way. :P
 
It doesn't look like this will take off this weekend, though, so I'm looking at next weekend to actually kick this off with some form of meetup. For now, at least we know what players are interested, and there's nothing preventing anyone from just dropping eachother a PM and finding a way to hook up or creating a plot.

I'll leave the gametime i usually play in as soon as i find it. Usually though i'll log one or two days each weekend, never the three of them.

Any particular things that are needed? I wanted to make a cleric but that doesn't make much sence so.. what are we looking for?

Well, anything. Im not looking for a fixed group with fixed goals so much as a network of people who can syncronize questing and certain plotting. Of course, we can always form it if it's needed, but right now, nothing fixed.

I've got a Cleric/Sorcerer in the works right now, but they may not be playable for a wee bit for a few reasons, not the least of which is me awaiting approval.

I do have a rather resourceful Dwarven Spellaxe, who'll still be around for a while as well. Most likely this will be what I'd be playing on.

Well, I came up with a concept that I'm enjoying very much, and may not fit that, good luck though!

All right, so I will be kicking this off this weekend, if all goes as planned (and it should!).
 
What I'm going for here is more a loose network for us - just think regular networking events, where we just meed people and discuss evil (or not so evil) plans and plotting, and where potential employers and those who want weekend warriors with them may find us. Might be a bit odd, but it might work. I will be posting on the IC forums about it soon. It will be held on Sunday, probably evening or afternoon GMT. Any thoughts or ideas pertaining to it? Also, are you guys all available on Sunday? Obviously not everyone needs to be available, but the more the merrier. It would also be good to know beforehand that it won't be a total fubar failure. : p

I got a meat-shield .... er... fighter that may be interested in some Sunday work.  Just need times and I should be able to arrange schedule accordingly.

Making an attempt at running this on Sunday, this weekend, 14.30 GMT+1. Made an IC post on ruins litter boards. See it, and please do post comments here - the more people we can draw the better, after all.

...And reality, however, swiftly reared it's ugly head. I can't do it this weekend, but if you guys want to do it yourselves, feel free to do so.
