...3 hours, I just have to survive three hours.

C'mon three hours from now!

...is it time...crap its only been like 30 seconds. Time is so slow today

3:17 PM

@James And it looks like my D&D game is actually going to happen!

3:49 PM

@James What's going on?

4:04 PM

@NexTerren Nice, the setup we talked about a while back?

@Hosch250 Nothing, which is perfectly acceptable since I start vacation tomorrow.

4:16 PM

Oh, that's what I meant.

Have a fun time :)

@James If you mean the plot, sadly that Shadowrun game died.

4:36 PM

@NexTerren Ah. What's your plan? Or are you a player in this one?

@James DM. Story is long and involves a lot of "of days of old, now forgotten" bits that they get to rediscover. Going to run it semi-sandbox where not every fight is promised to be balanced for their level.

@NexTerren Always a fun way to go. My players have learned that the church (there's only one in my world) teaches a...doctored version of history/cosmology. There were/are more gods than just the one...they found some ancient texts, yadda yadda. But its considered super blasphemy so they have...surprisingly wisely not yet acted on that information.

4:53 PM

@James Huh, sounds interesting

One of the main villains (more a force of nature) in my campaign is... well when a human woman who's lost her love dies, she becomes a banshee, right?

Well this is a female archangel who lost her deity, and then died.

Trying to find an image I like for her. I had one years ago that I loved when I ran this campaign previously, but I lost it.

@NexTerren That is a pretty badass idea.

5:37 PM

@James Is that potentially why she lost her love?

5:57 PM

@James did you?

@dot_Sp0T He survived up to one hour ago.

@Hosch250 lovely

let's hope he doesn't make it

FWIW, I almost didn't survive about 2 hours ago.

Survived. And am leaving. :) Ill be on vacation for a few days so have fun. See you next week.

We interviewed a guy who was pretty good, and he has a scrum master certificate.

And some members of my company were kind of starting an anti-agile rant.

How they'd never seen agile work in the real world.

6:07 PM

@Hosch250 That happens at literally every place I have worked that was new to or just starting to transition to agile.

And I was about to pop up and say "I've never seen waterfall work in the real world. You guys were 3 years behind on your main project when I joined, and you'd be late on well over 50% of all the ones I've been on if I wasn't so fast at developing things."

The number of teams that tell me they are special and it won't work for them...is basically all of the teams I have worked with...

:eyeroll:

anyway. stop distracting me!

And then they were commenting on how behind the times he was, and I had a hard time not saying "you can say that after you pull your heads out of 2005".

I am leaving! Later all.

See ya!

And say hi to the pigeon for me.

(Kind of like seeing the elephant, but crazier.)
