im at GMT +4
so someone can work out what that means. My hours might be largely flexible though,
I will state this though. As a DM or something, i mioght need someone to help me out with a LOT of stuff. I dont have books, I dont have sourcae materials, I dont have character sheets, I dotn have dice, in fact, the only thing I think i will have is snacks. Does this disqualify me? |

My dear boy, it's the same thing. Haven't you noticed that Alaundo types in a British accent?
See that little clock in the lower right-hand corner of your screen? Double-click it, and select the "Time Zones" tab. You'll be able to see what major cities of the world fall under what time zone by how many hours + or - it is. Subtract five hours from that total and you have the time relative between you and that city -- usually.
(The computer won't tell you if the other person is on Daylight Saving Time, aka Summer Time. If one person is in summer and the other isn't, it could be +/- one hour. For instance, Sage and Lina are both in Summer Time now, if I'm not mistaken, and the US has just gone out of that tonight.) |

Just to lighten the mood, here's a slightly paraphrased quote from the greatest sitcom of all time, M*A*S*H:
Henry Blake: "Why can't everyone be on the same time?"
Radar: "It's because the Earth is rotating, Sir."
Henry Blake: "Oh, I thought it was just an Army thing." |

Western Australia does not subscribe to Daylight Savings Time. It's been that way since 1997, although most of the other states in Australia still do. They will all be changing their clocks tonight...

That's odd. It's been proven that by transfering that one hour to the evening, you save oodles on power costs . . . .
(Oodles being a technical term, of course.  ) |

That is one idea Ben Franklin could have kept to his self.I hate the time change. I wish they would set it and leave it alone. |

Just remembered the computer clock when I turned it on this morning and was greeted by:
"Daylight Savings Time has changed. Please check your clock to make sure the time is right."
I think it's mostly general teenage indifference until now.
MuadDib, go here:

This is most of the 3.5 rules presented as rtf files.(And, yes, this is legal.)
There are a variety of ways to acquire character sheets. Unfortunately, I lost my Word template sheets, which would have been a good set to send you. Oh well.
Likely, whatever program we use will have a built-in dice roller.
So, don't worry. |

Yes I know our state is weird. At least we don't have to go through the trouble of remembering to wind the clock back, being late for work and re-winding the clock forward when daylight savings finishes. I tink that WA'ans are more lazy.  |

Maudib use these documents i am going to use them until i get my 3.5 books, which hopefully will be soon ::grumble::, and yes the open rpg program has a built in dice roller. You can also look up dice roller programs, or you can go here www.chessex.com (the pound-o-dice is a good deal.) |
Some believe there is something more after death, if you really want to find out... go kill yourself and stop pestering me. |

| In the version of OpenRPG I downloaded, an introductory tutorial was included in the program(look in the tree on the left side of the screen). I'll start a server probably for the game. |

| I've been quite busy recently, and have had to set most of my Candlekeep work aside. That includes this and the Sage's epic adventure. So, yes, we will continue, hopefully, but after a delay. |

Yes, sadly my own work on the Epic Adventure here at Candlekeep has been put to the wayside. My duties with helping out on the PSCS3e have taken up most of my free time this week, and looks set to continue for the next few days.
