OOC chat

Apologies, but I don’t quite understand, "Please fill in all of your other Skills with the base skill. You click on the Skill to add the appropriate roll to the roller (see example below)." I’m not quite seeing how to click the skill to add to the roller.

@MrCyan at the bottom of the game forum pages you will see a tab with your character name, under 'Quick Reply':



Clicking on that will display your character sheet in that very page. From that view, you will see 3 buttons for each of the roll able skills/characteristics. One for a Standard roll, one for a roll with bonus die, and one for a roll with penalty die.



By clicking on the relevant button, the roll will be added automatically to the GPlane roller. When you click Post, your post will be published and the chosen dice rolled.

Hope this helps.

That’s extremely helpful. Thank you.

It is a very well done character sheet. Thanks for setting that up Dr_B

No worries. I think I only tweaked a pre-existing character sheet. We perfected it game after game.

Now shared in the GPlane repository of custom sheets for all CoC buffs to use.

@virtualbasement,@SamIAm,@radiantskys Just a poke. Please post a response to the introduction thread so we can move the story forward.

@McButterpants Sorry about that. Updated. Thanks for the poke.

Sorry about that. I'm being extremely precious about making the character. I'd quite like to post as the character, so I managed to work out how to submit the sheet even though I'm still doing that.

I also don't know how to add an image for the character - do I do that after she's in the game maybe?

If you go to your character sheet, you should see a pen and like a little banner/pennant near the upper right corner. Click on that and you'll go to the character sheet editing page.

On the editing page, look to the right of the words "Custom Game" at the top of the sheet. You should see a link to change or add an avatar. Click on that to select and upload a character portrait.

Great, thanks!

I managed to post IC and I'll see about finishing off the character sheet next.

I included Ellie and Jo being cousins, as mentioned before. I'm happy to edit that if it steps on toes...

Fantastic posts, everyone!

Great story so far everyone! Thank you for putting so much effort into your responses. I am really enjoying the read.

I apologize if my posts skip a day or two. Work is busy this time of year. I will make an effort to post daily, but might miss a day if I’m wiped.

No worries, thanks for the heads up.

@radiantskys are you still with us? We haven't heard from Alan yet?

Looks like they've been offline for 8 days. Hopefully just busy and will be back soon. I sent a DM.

@McButterpants I finally went ahead and filled the base numbers into the rest of my skills on the character sheet.

Sounds good. Thank you very much!

Offering an opening to draw the others in the story.

Maybe it wouldn't be too far-fetched that Eleanor or Jocelyn could be personally acquainted with Robert Blaine?

That works for me. I was just waiting to see if @virtualbasement was going to respond before introducing something new. I will post something later today to help move things forward.

Apologies for the flowery responses. I'm practicing my writing - trying to paint the scene in my mind. Some posts are longer than I want them to be. I am trying to edit them down, but its hard. There's that old quote "If I had more time, I would have written a shorter letter."
