Yeah Mistaque has it right, just couldn't remember the exact numbers.

Also, resurrecting takes energy too and in most cases it's better not to use the energy on a rez, esp since teammates can rez you for the cost of some health.

Welp, looks like I've got plans again... Maybe next time

I'm not avoiding you, I swear! xD

Yeah, the energy system for Spiral Knights always seemed odd to me, and it's the reason I never really went and tried to play it. I have a friend that did and he said that it was just awful.

Darn you F*2P games!

Oh nevermind! I didn't realize it was posted on the Steam group for 12:30pm today!

Hmm, I might have to take a break part way through to go grocery shopping, but I should be here at the start of it. Pie is still sleeping though (we stayed up too late watching a movie) @_@

FINALLY back online and such, sadly I'm busy lately because of overtime at work and doing stuff with gf who is back from Europe but I'll be on at random times and try to make the next group session.

I already went and patched most of the many games that need it...that took a while, but everything is good to go. Eager to get some Spiral Knights in and start Terraria though it's been quite a while since I played SK...I have to wonder how people got those awesome Metal Sonic helm and chest pieces...

Oh, apparently I have a couple 2 star equips unbound if anyone needs em, I'm Falsetto in game.

That's great Roll and I hope to play with you sometime, but don't feel like you have to play with us it doesn't matter. There will be times when not all or even most of us can't play, just as long as you have fun when we do.

I thought this might help with the initial shock of starting out in Spiral Knights, there's a tl;dr at the bottom.

Also, if enough were interested I can make a guild too to make things easier.

Thought you could use that as a way to gauge my enthusiasm. It's gonna be awesome to be able to finally have you playing with us, Roll. (I even picked the one from FFIV)

I wanted to mention that Pie and I really enjoyed playing with everyone as briefly as we did on Saturday. I wish I could have stayed around more but it proved to be a bad time for me. I am happy to see Pie get some game time on Spiral Knights as she has been interested in the game for a while =)

Also, I wanted to offer up and possibly even as suggestions for future games to play together. They are both free to play and I would recommend them as fun ways to spend time together.

Dragon Nest has the same 4 person party setup, but dungeon runs are unlimited and relatively quick and we could switch out parties pretty easily. One of the appealing aspects of RO is that it has a 12 person party limit, which is really great for helping people feel included (when there are scenarios where 5 people are on and 1 person is left out of the fun). Additionally, the game is not instanced so even separate parties can interact with one another.

Terraria was nice in that it allowed us all on, but I felt like it would have been cool if we had some sort of goal or objective. I thought about how I got the Soul of Frights for Fixxxer (I think?) and how it was a wasted opportunity to go hunt them as a group >_<

Of course, the time constraints made it difficult for me to do anything anyways @_@ So I'm curious what sorts of adventures you had after we left XD

[RollCasket]

Well, as much as I've played the heck out of RO we could have a bigger group but then are we all starting new characters? I mean mine are on there but then we have a large stretch of random lvls, with new characters it's a clusterfuck of fighting over porings then a widespread dispersion when it comes class change time.

They were suggested before but there's also League of Legends and Rumble Fighter which I'm into both. LoL is 5vs5 while RF can be 4vs4 or 8 free for all so both of those cover about as many as we have avail. Plus LoL matches are about 20-40 min+ which isn't too long. With RF other than just vs fighting there are capture the flag, king of the hill, moving stages, and other special battle types including a multiplayer fighting dungeon run with raid boss at the end. Obviously as its a fighting game matches can be relatively quick which is good for people with less time.
