The weekend of 10 June doesn't work for me, I'll be out of town. Other than that, I'm good.

You know, because I have no life.

Come on, you were all thinking it. I just insulted me first.

So I'm available to run a Mutants and Masterminds game on either the 9 or 10th or the 16 or 17th.

The 16/17 one would probably be at Run for Life thing.

It might be less chaotic to run one on  9th or 10th (sorry harbinger).

So what would people like to do? And what sort of supers game would they like to play?

I don't think the 10th would work due to family obligations, but you never know, my mother could head back up to Idaho earlier then I'm thinking.

Maybe we will have to the second week.  Next week I don't know, maybe we could make some generic type characters that people could just tweek to taste.  Otherwise it might take a long time for everyone to make a new char from scratch.

Well, if people have an idea of what they want to play, we could start building a characters earlier in the week.

Yeah, that would help.  We should have more than one copy too, which will also help out.  I might revise my Cerberus guy a bit or make an Immortal sort of (either like Highlander or maybe just some punk who got Excalibur, as on top of the sword the sheath is supposed to also give you crazy regeneration.  I believe its Merlin who tells Arthur that the sheath is more valuable than the sword b/c of this).

M&M is D20 but it's not compatible with anything wizard's or anyone else makes, it uses a point system instead of levels and has some changes in how combat works.

Mutants and Masterminds is OGL, which means it shares a lot in common with D20, but isn't D20. No classes, no hit points, and the only die required is a 20-sided one.

It also incidentally runs a little faster than D20.
You should read (reread) the reviews for more information. Or visit the M&M site.

M&M's are chocolate peanut balls covered in candy.

Very nice.
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

Well, it looks like there isn't much interest for this weekend, so it will probably be next weekend during the Relay for Life event, if people are still interested. I'll have it put together with some premade characters for those who are interested.
