Lovely event, very fun and atmospheric. It's the nuances that really clinch the whole scene together.

Thanks again to everyone who participated. It was a great turnout. Five of our seven students made it this week. I counted eighteen drow who dropped by throughout the two linked events!

I definetely had a lot of fun!

Feel free to poke me for an event if you want a teacher, Pony. I need reasons to get on Elvis and torment young new players to the ways of evil blood bathers. Also, I just miss drow a lot!

Best we just meet in game for it! A lot more fun that way! :wink:

Sorry I couldn't make it, they were supposed to install the internet before Sunday but they cancelled on me

Looking forward to the next one!

I sent a pm to Broldi and you that has the written version of the lecture part of the event. That way you can both catch up and did not miss out on everything! All the other student players who made it yesterday should have a copy in their inbox too, so you can read up on it for your own convienience.

Oh, and I was just asked; no it is not too late to join these events. So if you are interrested, just let me know. :wink:

When is the next one Pony?!

Same time next Sunday I think is best, as it seems the day and time most can participate. So we can use that slot for regular drow sessions for the time being.

I will also be looking into running something more in the Eurozone if enough show an interrest.

I will be present every sunday for the foreseeable future

I surprised we actually RPed in the same room for the first time ever after seeing you in the forums for years.

Haha. I've been around Madrik before, but I don't think we've directly RPed before

The next academy event will take place tommorow at the same time as last week. This weeks topic will be on the ghastly surface elves who were such meanies to us thousands of years ago, that we are still completly justified in treating them in the most horrid and sadistic fashion. :wink:

11/23 8pm [GMT -5] works for me!

1:00 am GMT + 0 Monday.

I would really love to join this thing, but 1:00 am GMT+0 just doesn't work for me, i get up for work at 7:00 am on mondays -_-

If we can get 3 or more players together, I would be up to doing the events for a second group in an euro-friendly timeslot.

One hour 'till we start.

A big thank you to my drowlings, for making these lessons worth the work and fun!

Thanks, was a lot of fun!

sorry i missed the last one, how many people attended?

About eight of us or so. It was really fun, thanks guys! Cant wait for more evils in the future Sundays to come >:D

Ahly, Victyr and six of the seven students made it last night. Madrik is currently in Russia, but he should be back for the event after the next.

The foundations-relations the academy is fostering are fantastic. Good way to start a drow. Much appreciated for the work pony and all the other drow

probably good that isen is missing early lectures, dont want to give new drow bad habits too soon

To mix things up a little, Alakaun and Naltyrr will be hosting the lecture this week. They will be covering the recent history and plots of our UD, so y'all will be able to participate in the many stories and projects more easily.

I also hope to be starting the lectures and events for the lothite priestesses soon. For me, Sundays three hours before the joint lectures would be great. That would be 5:00 pm EST. Else we could begin to look at euro evenings during the week, but that would likely be more difficult with our different timezones.

If the players of Ynarizeque Gode'nzzeiren, Chesswae Alean'ndar, and Cheyanna Alean'ndar could let me know if that suits you, that'd be great. Any others who might want to join the academy as lothite priestesses, are welcome to do so too!

My laptop fried, and with that I can not play Amia. The backup I have freezes at times for minutes at a time, which makes gaming a little bit too frustrating. Not yet sure how long I will be out. I will let you know once I can.

Luckily this week is at least covered with Alakaun and Naltyrr, so the event should still take place tommorow.

You all saw nothing here.

Oooohhh. I got my times mixed up. :oops:

THREE HOURS UNTIL LECTURE START!

35 minutes until lecture start!

This was done and it went pretty good, thanks for showing up to those who did!

With Pony's laptop out of commission I will pick this up starting this Sunday at the suggested time!

I have some screenshot made during the lessons, I'll post them later.

So it will be 5 PM EST?

After giving my old laptop it's proper farewell and thanks for falling in the line of it's duty to entertain me, I have found comfort in a younger and prettier model that I already can not leave my hands off.

I will be back this weekend. Nwn has already been installed. Now I only need to finish my paper for the university today and then I'll join y'all again. So Friday / Saturday I should be back.

We still on for Sunday night, then?

Yay Pony

if 5 is going to be the normal time for these events I don't think I'll be making many of them, sadly enough.

I am not regularly available on Sundays until 7:30-8pm EST

Yes, I will be doing my best to be around tomorrow!

*Insert various cheers and happy faces.*

I believe it was just the priestess training that was set to start at 5pm. The regular academy stuff was scheduled for 3 hours later.

i'll see if i can swing by then

1 hour till the priestess lesson.

4 hours till the academy lesson.

I am afraid I can not make the 2nd lesson today after all. But Anatida and / or Mahtan will try to fill in for me. Next week, I will definitely be there to host it. Sorry!

Academy lesson will kick off in about 20+ minutes.

Been a real treat yesterday. From the priestess lesson for which Chesswae performed a great sacrifice of a sun elf (kudos to PassionateShadow for being such a great sacrafice), to all the insanity that ensued after and the continued lovecraftian DM events of Dusty.

And I still have to smile when I think about Naltyrr rolling a 1 and 2 on a d100, followed by Scholar rolling a 1 and 2 on his d20. The elder gods definetly seem to hold them in a special place of their hearts. :wink:

Ditto, it was super fun yesterday night. I'm loving it down under

Yes, this H. P. Dustcraft story is awesome.

Is this project still taking new applications?

I surely would love to participate with my own UD dweller

We are still allowing students to join up. So you are most welcome to do so!

Big Pinkish-Purple Words To Get Your Attention!

Hey guys and gals, we are considering moving the Priestess Lecture up to 3pm EST and the Academy Lecture to 6pm EST. Basically, both lessons would be 2hours earlier in the future if we do this. This would make it easier for a few people to be around when they take place, as well as allow Dusty to kick off his events earlier that seem to very often now happen afterwards.

Is there anyone currently intending to regularly visit either of the two events that it would be difficult for? If so, it would be great if you could let me know.

Man, I'm so sad I can never make these things

But, it goes with the territory of my availability.

Sometimes being married to a non-gamer is a PITA XD
