Sadly, I can't come to this draft. In fact, I think I still owe you some money from last time. Shocked

I'm interested. But there's an LRT 3??? Are you referring to LRT 2 or an actual LRT 3 because last time I checked there's MRT, LRT line 1 and LRT line 2, please clarify. Thanks.

IIRC it was LRT-3, though that info was mostly gleaned from whimsical glances while commuting.

Just ride the one that goes along Recto-Santolan. The junction with the Monumento-Baclaran line is at Doroteo Jose and the junction with the MRT line (Q-Ave line) is at Araneta-Cubao (near Gateway.)

Dude, that's LRT-2. LRT-3 is still under construction. I just checked on it. Razz How many players do you expect are coming, Q?

Also, it's going to be the OGM. OGM only costs 50 pesos to get in.

EDIT: Whoops. Wrong price.

I edited the thread title; from here on, let's keep this as the thread for all incoming BALASA/OGM's at SM Marikina. No need to make a new thread every month.

I'll be back to DnD for the upcoming OGM, after the successful short stint with NWoD. For this month, I'll be DMing a level 2 adventure that will likely take 4 hours; it's called "Khyber's harvest". Wink Most likely I'll begin play at 2pm, though it depends on player avaiability at the time.

Ooh, is it going to be a Harvest Moon based scenario? Where they have to raise cows, chickens, and marry their one true heterosexual love to win the game? Razz

Not for this one. It's just a one-shot, and the games I run are in support of AEGIS. so no fees required. Very Happy Of course, you'd have to pay the entrance fee to the event, but that's just a simple 50 bucks.

As for bringing in characters, I'm not too keen on the idea. I already have five pregens ready, and I think they will serve.

my class ends at 6pm. hopefully, I can drop by for a visit before the event dies down and everyone packs up to leave.

if the game package arrives tomorrow, i'll drop by and distribute them Very Happy

By the way, chief. I know that Dimatinag is your creation but... can I re-create him and adapt him to Forgotten Realms? XD

Nuno02: "Pffft! Let him. He'll do no harm to us while he's up th---ack!"
Nuno03: "Did he just lob a coconut at us?"
Dimatinag: "There's 4 other ways I can kill you with these things. Wanna see?"
Dimaunahan: "Oh my god! I think I'm drowning!!!"

The event usually ends at around 9. The security guards literally had to drive us away last time before we left. Razz

Doc Hans passed by, actually; we weren't able to talk much, as I was running a game at the time.

I should shorten the games that I run. You can only have so many encounters with three to four hours of gameplay.

nice, nice. I sent an SMS to let him know of the event, but he never replied to me, so I wasn't sure if he was going to pay you guys a visit. glad that he did.

man, i really wish i was able to see all the action.

--------------------------------------------------------------

I'll most likely be running a tournament for Magic there. Just wondering if you guys would be interested in running a DnD campaign or, as AAS suggested, an intro to Bonethrall -- I'd be able to include it in the poster/flier I'd inevitably end up doing anyway.


Continue discussion here.

Interest in my Proposed 4E game have mostly been ignored, so I'm most likely shifting to a continuing NWoD game instead. Besides, it's easier to handle characters going in and out of an NWoD "level-less" game.

Maybe someone else will run D&D... Razz

I think we've agreed to make the BALASA as one of two possible events to comply with the HGC application requirements. For this, Q's the activity supervisor. So, if there would be apps there, please be nice to them. Razz
