Almanac – Pistols
August 17th, 2012Journal entries are great, if you remember to do them. I completely spaced on it so this morning was a shock and scramble with lots of Muppet-like flailing. I sometimes wonder if I’d remember my name if people didn’t call me it all the time >_<; Oi Vey.
Anyways, Things have been a bit crazy but we’re still gearing up for Chapter 5. This one should be a lot of fun! A bit more action and some consequences for past action. Or maybe actions? Guess you gotta stay tuned to find out. C:
Thanks again to all who stop by and read. And a special thanks to those who comment! It means a lot to us, even when it’s a critique! It means the world to know you took the time to comment, so thanks!
Again, sorry this is so short. Life distracted me and I fell short this week on my duties >__<;; Arg!

Diane’s note: It’s okay Britt, both Eric AND I forgot about the update too! Whoops. That’s a lot of memory loss right there. Sorry about the confusion, and I hope you enjoy Eric’s update to our Alamanc entry under Weapons.
That list of yours just made my day, so you know!
The chairs…. Yeah. The tables are made with wood and tools, but the chairs are wood and sorcery I swear.
Or alchemy. Either way, the chairs are amazing.
So is Eric here at the con already?
Yes, we’re both at Gencon! Eric’s been running D&D Next pretty much all day today and yesterday.
Gen Con was fantastic; it was the first convention I’ve worked and was more of a rush than I imagined it could be! The highlight of the whole thing though, by a ridiculous margin, was meeting the two of you. I’m really glad that we managed to catch one another.
Two another? How should that be phrased?
Hi Greg! It was fantastic meeting you too. You (and Christine and Ed Greenwood) were on my list of people I wanted to meet at the convention. Your tables are amazing by the way. You guys do incredible work. I particularly liked your chairs. Those were the most comfortable wooden chairs I’ve ever sat in.
I just read the recent almanac entry, and I think that there might be a word missing in the second paragraph:
“pistols have become the popular (choice?) among the younger nobility as dueling weapons”
But perhaps there’s a word too many instead, and “the popular” should be just “popular”? I guess that would be the case if swords are still the main duelling weapon among even the younger nobility, since “the popular choice” would indicate that pistols have become more popular than any other weapon.
Thank you for pointing that out! I’ll make the fix as soon as I get back to a computer. :)
Curses! I was so sure we changed that one. Bad editor – no cookie!
