Enemy of Entropy
Semester done!
I took my project manÂageÂment final tonight, so I’m done with the semesÂter! Now I’m tryÂing to downÂload the textÂbook files for next semesÂter, but the ebook server is havÂing Issues.
In the meanÂtime, I’m lisÂtenÂing to some lovely new music, free and legal, over at TheÂSixÂtyÂOne. I don’t know how Sam found out about the place, but it’s neat.
That’s instruÂmenÂtal, but so far I’ve heard rap (about D&D!), alterÂnaÂtive, a capÂpella, elecÂtronic, folk, and rock. If it exists, they’ve got it. Maybe by peoÂple you’ve never heard of, but hey, it’s cool!
Please let me know if you want to join, and I’ll send you an invite
There’s a points sysÂtem in use on the site, and it’s a pyramid-​​kinda thing. You don’t lose anyÂthing by being referred, but I get points from referÂring you (and Sam gets points because he referred me).
We had another really great game last night. A while back, my charÂacÂter develÂoped a seriÂous hate for a necroÂmancer archÂmage, and came pretty close to killing him. A repÂreÂsenÂtaÂtive of the archmage’s counÂcil stepped in and got in her way, imprisÂonÂing the necroÂmancer (not for all the killing he’d done, but for tryÂing to muck with the econÂomy in a big way). They did have to send my character’s brother-​​in-​​law, dammit. I guess they knew she wouldn’t kill him.
AnyÂway, the counÂcil was supÂposed to do away with the nasty man, but they had some sort of delay, then asked my charÂacÂter to come in and hear an offer the guy made. I/​she would have sworn that there was no way at all anyÂbody could conÂvince her to vote against killing him right this minute, destroyÂing his soul, etc. (the method used to exeÂcute archÂmages, espeÂcially those who have already cheated death by becomÂing a lich, does that). And Sam gave him leverÂage that made her/​me agree to give him a (brief) chance to redeem himÂself before he dies. Arrghh! That man!
