Hey all.

Apologies for vanishing into the ether like that, but life is a fickle wench. In my case, it's been a series of partings in the last few years, ranging from both parents (and the fallout from that) all the way down to finally saying goodbye to the martial arts school I have been associated with for the last 14 years (I doubt anyone has a clue I really left). I'll have to restructure some things in my life for certain. Not sure where it will all go just yet. Hell, haven't even been by any post boards or even EBay in a while. I'll have to remedy the last before stuff falls off the 60-day list.

I know some PMs have been posted here and on Dragonsfoot for the classifieds. I'll be getting to them in order of submission over the next few days (starting tonight). I only ask that people be patient. I'ts going to be a while before I get fully up to speed again.

I've seen your dojo (I think that's right) pics too - I do remember it was important to you. Not sure where those pictures were posted, probably here??

Anyway I hope things are looking up for you, and least they are settling down a bit.

Be well,

Thanks. I do recall posting a pic when I was promoted to a junior instructor waaaay back in 2012. Might have posted a link to the tournament a time or two as well. We simply called it 'the school' though the proper term was Academy, like the chinese military academies for MA if I recall that last bit correctly. Dojo is a Japanese term.

The big fallout was when I began working Saturdays, when all the instructor meetings and classes happened. The place became increasingly cold over several years, which was helped along by an opportunist that saw a chance to upgrade their own standing in the eyes of the higher ups. I certainly made more than my share of mistakes, but at least I never intentionally tried to screw any one else over.

Welcome back ST.

Lol...I downloaded this the other day and am going to see what adjustments I need to make for a POD....If I can

Confirmed, this is the End Times.

Wendy's should open their stores to gaming groups and start giving discounts for food if your group features their game

Here's USA Today's coverage:

'Wendy's is taking on the video game craze in a new Dungeons & Dragons-like role-playing video game...The rules: "Feast of Legends is what is known as a tabletop role-playing game," Wendy's says.'
