Being as I am new to ANY table-top, I may need some help with the sheet and what not. I'm definitley not new to roleplaying concepts just need to actually sit down and read thoroughly over the the storylines and backgrounds to get an idea.

Just throw me some questions and I'll try my best to answer them. The more specific the question the better the answer you'll get.

Well, as it stands right now, I may or may not have to pull outta this. I just landed an Over the Road coast to coast trucking job that I'll be out two weeks at a time and home two days, so, I'll have to see weather I can do this or not now though I really want to.

So the first session went down relatively smoothly from my point of view. There were a few things that I could have done better: description, improvisation, and keeping every person engaged (although I feel that the pacing was right on and I gave everyone a chance to do what they wanted, correct me if I'm wrong). I also should have been more acquainted with every NPC that was attending the party so that I could answer questions about them with more expedience and certainty.
I'll be posting a recap of the first session and continue recording the sessions in a separate Journal thread in the coming days. I'd like for this thread to become a comments and criticisms thread now that the game is finally underway. So feel free to post what you liked or didn't like, about what happened in a previous session; how I can improve my Storytelling technique; what you'd like to see in an upcoming session; or anything else really.
I'll be preparing for the next session, which will occur in a little over a month, barring any schedule shuffling. In the meantime, help me prepare by stating what you want to come up in the next session or ask any questions about the setting that you wish to be cleared up.
Thank you and take care.

My sincerest apologies for falling asleep. I was really trying to focus, but I kinda lost that battle rather quickly. If you could send me a private message to catch me up on what I missed (unless I missed it ICly too), I'd be much appreciative. Although I will ask if we can possibly start a little earlier next time (since we won't have to worry about rearranging furniture and getting everything set up right after moving in). I can't help it, but sometimes I can stay up til midnight and other nights I am absolutely whooped by 9. I know that's frustrating when we don't get started til 7:30-8. I'll share some constructive criticism when I've been awake long enough to actually give some. I liked what I was conscious for.

Its not a problem, we did get started kinda late considering the move, organization, the cool down with Rock Band and the preemptive attempt at getting the table talk out of our systems. Next time I hope to start at my original starting time as proposed previously: 5:00 pm.
Like I said I'll be posting starting a Journal thread here soon, where I'll be posting a summary and you guys will be able to throw in an in character analysis of what occurred during the sessions. If after the post, you still have any questions, send me a PM and I'll answer them for you or fill in any details.

With there being a free Sunday available now through the month, I would like to request that Sunday as the time to play Vampire rather than where its at now, BRB night. With my sleep schedule, such as it is, it would suit me better to be able to come home after BRB and re-readjust my sleep schedule so that I'm not suffering on Monday night. This way I could also start up a little earlier, getting food preparations out of the way sooner.
I would like to take the Sunday between Geist and Shadowrun if that is fine with everyone.
I apologize for there not being a game last night, it was just too busy of a night between BRB, moving Tony, food, and Rob having to leave early. It was just a bad night.

I honestly don't care that much either way when the game happens, as longs as everyone is on the same page. You have a neutral vote from me.
(But it may help if you didn't play WoW till 4 in the morn on Sat, lol)

Actually, nix the Sunday idea (well don't nix it if this one doesn't fly).
How would everyone feel about playing on Saturday nights instead of Sunday nights until Brian can play again? Seeing as how a number of the players involved require getting a good night's sleep in order to go to work Monday morning, I figured this set-up would be optimal. Now there is a hiccup, occasionally Alex will work on Saturdays for meter testing and he requests that these days not be game days; so we'll kinda have to play which day we play by ear. Tentatively, we will plan for every second Saturday evening with rescheduling as per necessity.
If there are any concerns about this please bring them up, this is only an idea.

Well, my cousin may want to start playing again once it gets colder. Saturdays was our night.

Until such time as it becomes impossible to play on Saturdays for you, could we still play on Saturdays?
Also, would you and your cousin be able to play on Sundays, or do they have a scheduling conflict for Sunday evenings?

Question? Would be it like after 4 till say 9? Or would you be planning on starting later? This way it may give some of us players idea what time to set aside then, and might help you and bael work some thing out.

I'd be willing to adjust the time frame to suit our group's needs.
Also, I'd like to ask if Bael would be willing to set aside his tentative game one Saturday a month to allow for this schedule change to take place. I'm open to whatever, but I'd really prefer to play on one Saturday a month instead of one Sunday a month.

Well I guess I can do it until they decide they want to play.
