==Hello==
The EX3 Devs sent out a low-res version of the final map, unfortunately it's a little too low-res to see too many details.
What the hell's up with everybody? I've been moving to Northside of Chicago and dealing with lab crises - but there's no recent changes!


What's up on the RPing scene, homies?

I backed up Seventh Legion today. Download it just so we have copies on as many hard drives as possible.

Waiting for you to post on [[Congraduations!]], so we can wrap up the scene and start one with Brian in it too. That sentance sounds more bitchy than I am intending, but I dont feel like editting it. --[[User:Macabreengel|Macabreengel]] 13:23, 21 July 2011 (EDT)
Can you guys believe all the content we've generated over the years?  Just hit random page over and over again and marvel. It's awesome.


==Online Game==
[[User:Olaf|Dan]] 16:57, 14 April 2012 (EDT)
I have an itch to play Exalted and in idea in my head. Would you be interested in attempting to play a 3 person game online? It would revolve around three young DBs that just graduated from the Acadamies. Let me know and I will post some stuff to get the idea juices flowing. --[[User:Macabreengel|Macabreengel]] 16:16, 26 April 2011 (EDT)


I would totally be down for something like that. Also primary online games can occasionally hop in session (this worked very well for our sidereal game a couple of times) and could provide a Shadowrun break if/when necessary. --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 16:32, 26 April 2011 (EDT)
It really is amazing and I'm pretty glad it's lasted as long as it has and generated so much content. I would say the sitting here and clicking random page has gone from something I enjoy to being a full fledged hobby of mine. Also, this is a little late but did you guys realize that March 25th, 2012 was the 5th anniversary of this site being live?


I'm sorry did someone hijack Macabreengel's account? Haha... I would not be opposed to doing some in-session Exalted, if we want a break from Shadowrun. We've done 21 straight sessions. I'm having a blast with it but do not mind the occasional break from STing. Online is fine too, if we want to keep SR going in person. I'm flexible.

Some pretty awesome stats to remind you how sweet this site is and how often we use it:
* 575,000 Total Page Views
** 115,000 per year
** 9,500 per month
** 2,200 per week
** 375 page views per day!
** We have 5 pages with over 10,000 views individually!

** 165 edits per month
** 35 edits per week
** 5 edits per day!
* Over 500 ''content'' pages
** 100 per year
** 8 per month


I want to keep SR going in person, but if there are times when you and Tony both dont want/can't ST, then we could do an in person session of Exalted. I will probably post a little bit of information soon, but I want to do a little of reading as a refresher before I post too much information. --[[User:Macabreengel|Macabreengel]] 10:35, 27 April 2011 (EDT)
Pretty awesome and continuing to grow as always. Keep up the good work gentlemen.

Agreed, I definitely want to keep SR going in person as the primary game. Sounds good Dan, certainly no rush. --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 11:28, 27 April 2011 (EDT)
Eh, some of those statistics are skewed. Just remember that [http://aartedafuga.blogspot.com/2009/06/secessao.html some sites] link to our maps of the world... possibly mistaking them for reality? I really can't tell. [[User:Kirkland|Kirkland]] 05:35, 15 April 2012 (EDT)
 
How would you feel about making it 4 young DBs?  I just finished the last exam and last homework assignment of my life last Friday.  My life shows signs of returning to normal.  I'd be hesitant to say I could storytell, and obviously I couldn't attend in-person sessions, but I'm pretty sure I could rally my strength to make regular posts again.  To say I miss Exalted would be a pretty monumental understatement.  Also, sorry about my drunk posting.  I was quite gone that night.

I would be cool with it. Do you plan on doing online Star Wars too? Is that going to continue? I didnt want this to kill Star Wars if you guys were going to continue with that. So I guess the question is: Will you be able to do both? or Would Tony and Brian rather do this? or Should Dan's character be written out of Star Wars? or Something else. I doubt the pace of my game will be grueling lol. --[[User:Macabreengel|Macabreengel]] 11:56, 2 May 2011 (EDT)
 
It sort of seemed like Star Wars was slowing down naturally, although I'm sure my slow posting didn't help matters.  My guess was that Brian's plate was probably full STing Shadowrun, but I'd be happy to continue Star Wars as well.  I think I could manage posting for both.  If I had to vote for one of the two, that'd be tough, but I too have been itching to play Exalted.  That said, if Star Wars is continuing, I'd hate to write out Akea - he's one of my favorite characters that I've made.

==Next Session==
I am officially moved into the new house and things are getting settled slowly but surely. Brian there is still an office chair in the garage if you feel the need to stop by. ;-)
 
This week I'm a bit busy but I'm hoping we can resume in person sessions the following Monday, August 1st. Not sure yet if I'll be voting for it to be at Dan's or looking to christen the new place, we can figure that out closer to the start. Okay for everyone? --[[User:FyreFly|FyreFly]] 20:59, 24 July 2011 (EDT)

I think they are all available on youtube and this is the guy's blog. I watched the first 8 "Star Wars Begins" and they were pretty awesome, I'd recommend them for any Star Wars Fan. (They are a bit lengthy though)

It really is amazing and I'm pretty glad it's lasted as long as it has and generated so much content. I would say the sitting here and clicking random page has gone from something I enjoy to being a full fledged hobby of mine. Also, this is a little late but did you guys realize that March 25th, 2012 was the 5th anniversary of this site being live?
