AUUUGGGH!! Where did my post go????

Anyway, I got lost somewhere. Obviously. Yeah, Embershard.... I always sneak around the trigger for the trap....
Me too... except for when I'm running back for the door with my hair on fire and a couple of bandits chasing me... Then I run straight through the trigger and hope the bandits catch the rocks. :)

YAAaay Brambleberry! Pull up a mug of ale and down a chair or two... :)

Oh, and Kane, too... Great! The more Bretons the merrier, eh?

Nope. Not fun for me.

The amazing things of Skryim. In the spoiler is a picture that is hilarious, ironic and strangely real to life. Paxton saw this strangeness on his way to Whiterun.

I took quite a while deciding between Breton and Nord since the Nords are loaded up with skills in our skill set as well as resistant to freezer-burn. In the end it was the magic resistance and the conjuration/illusion bennies that made me go Breton.

What's the re-roll penalty this round? Just drop a difficulty level? Drop and less time? Asking for a friend :angry: (stupid silent moons camp!)

Uhmm... Doesn't sound too good, there Rafer... I just did Silent Moons myself a couple of hours ago, and some of it was very nip and tuck. I was up on the wall where you can drop into the gated section, and three of the outside guys caught me in a crossfire. I kept summoning flame atronach, I'd hear the spell and my magicka would go away but the atronach never showed up!

Right now though, I'm really feeling ripped off. BAck at the beginning, before you can get a two-hand weapon, I went up two skill levels before the first two stormcloaks were dead. That put me at 17 for one-handed. I wasn't thinking about it, and AI agreed to go get Amren's sword from White River Watch.

Got all done, got the sword and on the way back to Whiterun I realized I can't turn it in to Amren. If I do, the jack ass will raise my one-hand to 18 and my block at the same time! On top of that, I got the Ironhand Gauntlets off of whassisname the boss, but if I try to use them I'll get bumped up in heavy armor. In the end, all I got out of the whole thing was some crappy fur armor, gauntlets I don't dare use, a finished quest I don't dare complete, and an hour and a half off of my available time. I'm going to take that sword of Amren's and drop it in the middle of the damned lake... and if he ever mentions it again... :gun:

I hear you. Jorg had gotten 2 level ups in One handed in Helgen as well. When I saw Amren I cursed very loudly. When I thought about Iron-hand 2 seconds later, I cursed again. Got to love those random skills!

Brandon had just finished of Mirmulnir, and returned to Whiterun. He walked in the gates (overburdoned naturally) and found himself in the midst of a battle with vampires. Somehow he must have killed somebody he shouldn't have, because the guards turned and fill him with arrows.

RIP Brandon the Human

I've a question or two though... Looking at this:

Are the misc quests you're talking about the "Quests Completed" on the first line? If so then Brandon's score is:
Bounty quests: 2 x 200 = 400
Misc Quests: 4 x 100 = 400
Side Quests: 1 x 100 =100
Total 900 (staggering, isn't it? :) )

So then that brings me to the next order of business:

Brandon the Zombie
Breton Male

Let's forget Jorg the human ever existed, given his extremely short existence (level 4). If I recall the rule correctly I deduct his limited play time from the 40 hours.

Jorg the Zombie
Nord
Male
Expert difficulty

Neil, thanks for the reminder about the Vampire Attacks. Jorg the zombie (JZ) will need to acquire a vampire chopper posthaste!

Is the penalty correct? We take a step down in difficulty AND lose 10 hours? That's awfully steep. I'm not sure its worth re-rolling. I thought we went down a level in difficulty and subtracted time accrued in previous characters.

That is the way it is written still...but I think we should remove that part... It made sense for 80hrs, it really doesn't for 40... but Richard has the final say.

Richard??? It's really not enough time...and I'd prefer to keep people interested.

10 hours loss? I thought I changed it to 4... I'll change it right away

Also, the bounty quests count as misc quests. Just thought I'd let you all know

Remove it? Sure, that can be done.

And done it is!

Didn't make much difference for me, I had about 8.5 hours into Brandon (was at level 10). Still, I can see where anything after the zombie level is likely not worth doing. There's not much time to develop a character even at 30 hours. Probably better not plan on doing a lot of prospecting to raise your smithing, eh?
