I'll get that to you late this evening. I have a face-to-face game this Sunday, but up until about 2 pm. Eastern time I can pay attention and contribute.

Got 'em. Transcribing to Chummer. Pax, waiting on Hero Labs to let my license loose (Had reformatted my computer a week or so after getting HL, then had a self inflicted accidental wipe when I was messing around with archlinux. sda != sdb) and I'll be loading your character in. Or...I could use the copy installed on my wife's computer, but that requires getting Mac on me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

^_^ I was just about to send a PM, and ask if the email had gotten there. However, I want you to disregard that character (or keep it for use as an NPC if you like). I've been thinking it over, and I don't think the build really reflects "recently ex-ganger" (or similar) very well.

So I started again from scratch, building an ex Go-ganger Dwarf Magician-Adept, who combines both [Face-Adept] and [Combat Spellcaster] in one package. The only problem is the 4 max on Magic/Resonance. That's absolutely brutal for a Magician-Adept. I can make it work, just, with a total 6 rating, on a 2(adept)-4(magician) split. If you're willing to bend, great, awesome. If not ... back to the drawing board (I'd probably have to chop out the spellcasting entirely - then find somewhere to spend the ~80BP difference that makes).

Let me know which way to jump, when you've a moment free to think it over. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Invisible Castle has worked for me. The extras you point out, _Pax._, look interesting.

Tried to start this off exciting and interesting, and this seems like a situation that's going to be ripe for you guys to all meet each other in. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I don't recall it taking long at all. It was years ago though.

I have checked my spam folder. I've also tried to register a second time, being especially careful to enter my email address correctly. So far? No joy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif)

Odd...they were amazingly fast for me. Email their contact peeps asking them what's up?

If they run this out of the house, then a small service could have simply crashed. It happens all the time.

Worst comes to worst, one of us others can throw rolls out for you in the mean time until it gets back up/issues stop occurring, or we can switch to another dice rolling service. Annoying, I know, but a good potential stopgap solution. If you can't tell, I'd like to have you stay in the game (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

edit: Contact link is up and working for me, give it another go?

Bloody hell, same Server Error. Note, this happens only when clicking to actually _send_ a message - the form comes up fine.

...

I don't want to prompt everyone else to have to move to a different service. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif)

If I haven't gotten one of the (now THREE) registration emails the site should have sent to me by tomorrow night (late-ish), I'll just bow out and make room for someone who hopefully can register there.

Where are you, _Pax._? Would the location have any effect?

May switch from invisiblecastle if my other players can't register either. Will call them tonight and figure out if they've been successful.

I'm in Connecticut. Can't imagine that'd have any effect.

Thanks for being so patient with me, Taeksosin. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Yep, de nada so far.

What'd your other players have to say, Taeksosin? Should I bow out, or is the problem endemic enough you'll find a different service?

Looks like the two of them got registered no problem. I'd say double check your email for a mail from mailman@invisiblecastle.com . If it's still not there/not showing up, you can bow out if you wish. Or heck, I'll register a throw away email account and see if I can get it registered for you.

Dang, you wouldn't need to bow out just because you can't get registered at IC (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

And it's not just you - I'm trying to register a new account to give to you, and I haven't gotten emails either, and I've tried with 2 different contact email addresses...

There's ways around it, I would think - just give your dice totals to others to roll, hell I'll give you access to my IC account, not much personal info there I'm worried about (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

No, I don't want to have to have others roll my dice. I don't want your account, either. Maybe I'm just spoiled by RPOL.
