I'll have to ask Yakko if he still wants to play or not, but here are everyone's character choices

Hatbotted for maximum pain

Random: Gloria Goldberg or Joe Diamond
Cid: Amanda Sharpe or Dexter Drake
Yakko: Vincent Lee or Marie Lambeau
Tal: Kate Winthrop or Diana Stanley
Bard: Sister Mary or Leo Anderson
Captain K: Harvey Walters or Michael McGlen

Cid gets Amanda as an option again? Man.

Anyways probably gonna go with Joe Diamond in the interest of getting a relatively fresh face in.

Bardiche · « **Reply #177 on:** May 15, 2011, 11:41:00 AM »

Kinda thinking of Sister Mary, for magic support, unless people think Leo's particularly good.

Yakumo · « **Reply #178 on:** May 15, 2011, 04:34:42 PM »

Sister Mary is terrible. Take Leo, his ability is freaking awesome.

I will play, but I'm not sure which character I want yet.

Oh, and don't forget, #rpgdlarkhamhorror still exists on IRC.

Talaysen · « **Reply #179 on:** May 15, 2011, 06:21:25 PM »

I think I will choose Kate Winthrop. For SCIENCE.

Unless argued otherwise I suppose.

Hunter Sopko · « **Reply #180 on:** May 15, 2011, 07:04:57 PM »

Oh yes, based on the last game, I'm instituting a rule for this game.

If you haven't submitted your move within 48 hours of the turn going up, your turn will be taken for you. This will prevent slowdown from the player side at least.

Quoting Yak for truth and emphasis.

Sierra · « **Reply #182 on:** May 15, 2011, 08:48:38 PM »

Taking Dexter because he's not Amanda. Also style points.

Captain K. · « **Reply #183 on:** May 16, 2011, 12:19:20 AM »

Heh, I have a choice between Strong Mind or Strong Body. Michael's probably the more useful of the two, but Harvey is an Ugly Old Man. But I could speak in an annoying gangster voice as Michael...

Eh, who am I kidding, Ugly Old Man it is.

I will be Harvey Walters.

Yakumo · « **Reply #184 on:** May 16, 2011, 02:24:43 AM »

If you're going to play Harvey, I suggest making your personal story a priority. Otherwise, unless Soppy changed the attack, Nultros can one-shot him, and since the idea is that you fight Nultros repeatedly... yeah, not a good place to be.

I'm thinking I'm going to take Vincent unless anyone has any arguments for Marie.

Bardiche · « **Reply #185 on:** May 16, 2011, 03:41:36 PM »

Fine, I'll pick Leo. I just don't like the thought of getting devoured for ditching an ally.

Hunter Sopko · « **Reply #186 on:** May 16, 2011, 06:19:09 PM »

I'll hold off on assigning Cap's character until he responds to Yakko's question, but in the interest of time... (Fixed Items are bolded)

Random: Joe Diamond: $8, 3 Clue Tokens, .45 Automatic, Rifle, Newspaper Assignment, Expert Occultist

Cid: Dexter Drake: $5, Shrivelling, Shrivelling, Red Sign of Shudde M'ell, .18 Derringer, Dhol Chants, Strong Will

Yakko: Vincent Lee: $9, 1 Clue Token, Dark Cloak, Research Materials, Cloud Kill (Strangers, See Below), Meteor Storm (Strangers, See Below), Speed

Tal: Kate Winthrop: $7, 2 Clue Tokens, Patrolling the Streets, Pallid Mask, Dread Curse of Azathoth, Enchant Weapon, Marksman

Bard: Leo Anderson: $5, 2 Clue Tokens, Cham (Strangers, See Below), Knife, Lucky Cigarette Case, Psychology

Captain K: Michael McGlen: $8, Dynamite, Tommy Gun, Nameless Cults, Will

Yakko/Vincent:

Bard/Leo:

Final note: Remember all rolls will be made in #rpgdlarkhamhorror

Captain K. · « **Reply #187 on:** May 16, 2011, 11:24:48 PM »

Hmm, looks like the team needs a bruiser rather than a spellcaster. I'll be Michael instead.

Yakumo · « **Reply #188 on:** August 18, 2011, 02:55:13 PM »

Here we go again. It's been almost two months since DLCon and Soppy still hasn't updated, so I'm going to go ahead and call that dead and start signups for a new Arkham game. I haven't decided on the expansions to use yet so if anyone wants to see something specific go ahead and make suggestions.

Yakumo · « **Reply #189 on:** August 21, 2011, 10:37:12 AM »

Guess nobody's interested in Arkham right now. Alright, I'll scrap this for a while, maybe there will be more interest another time.

Yakumo · « **Reply #190 on:** December 16, 2011, 12:30:30 AM »

Tripleposting whee~

If people are interested, I'm thinking about starting up a new Arkham game a couple days after Christmas, though we could get the character picking out of the way before that. Let me know if you're interested and if you have any preferences on expansions and stuff. Default would be base+Innsmouth but I'm willing to swap around if you guys would prefer something else.

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #191 on:** December 16, 2011, 06:43:41 AM »

Sure.

Random Consonant · « **Reply #192 on:** December 16, 2011, 07:15:29 AM »

I would be willing to be in this thing, though if newer faces want in I'll bow out.

I'm in

Yakumo · « **Reply #195 on:** December 22, 2011, 08:38:16 PM »

Do you guys want to try rolling with just four or hold out for more people? Also, if we go with four, should I swap out Innsmouth for a card expansion instead?

Yakumo · « **Reply #196 on:** December 31, 2011, 06:42:18 PM »

Doesn't look like we're getting any more people so we'll roll with four. After discussion with Tal and Random, I've decided to swap out the Innsmouth expansion for a card expansion, Lurker at the Threshold. I suggest you guys take a look at the rules for that one in advance, and also at the Lurker herald which will be in play.

Your character choices for the game are as follows:

Andy: Mandy Thompson or Jacqueline Fine

Random: Roland Banks or William Yorick

Tal: "Skids" O'Toole or Norman Withers

Nitori: Agnes Baker or Trish Scarborough

Nitori · « **Reply #197 on:** December 31, 2011, 07:41:04 PM »

trish scarborough time bro

Random Consonant · « **Reply #198 on:** January 01, 2012, 12:55:27 AM »

Going with Roland Banks on this one.

Talaysen · « **Reply #199 on:** January 01, 2012, 04:52:58 PM »

Think I'll go with Skids unless people want to try and convince me to take Norman.
