Subject: The fact that I have been missing for a time...
Date: Fri, 22 Nov 1996 21:44:54 +1300
Sorry, I meant to send a goodbye and desubscription type message, but the
last night in (student town) Dunedin celebration turned into a drunken
rampage, and the message was not sent. I will be back next year, but until
then there are some things that sort of need to be said. Thusly...

Fellow shifters:
L would not be entirely quiet during my absence, I have no idea what's been
going on with the IF thing, or whether Wolfen has reported, but send stuff
to L, and if you like, someone can use him to reply as they see fit.

Becky (if you are back yet)
Please continue the Evita-Ronin thing, and I'm still thinking about that
other matter.

Dread Executor:
Could you desubscribe the address jaimie.nicholson@********.otago.ac.nz,
it's no longer mine. Thanks.

*big grin* Hey, Jim, I suppose this is a new one... someone asking to be
kicked off the list :-)

Actually, I've had similar conversations with Robert Hayden several
times. There was a time when I was changing jobs, and having trouble
subscribing to ShadowTk through my ISP. That problem was eventually
solved, but I can't remember how many times I had to ask Robert or Mark
to delete me by hand so I could resubscribe.

I note that I didn't get knocked off plotd though... I had to sit through
886 messages when I got back.

On another matter... I think it Paul who said (back in december maybe?)

What's in "Threats" then? And what are FASA saying about "Worlds without
End" and Dirk Montgomery's encounter in Hawaii? Pretending they never
happened?

>>Horrors thread that thankfully they have now dropped

More like deemphasized from the last sense I got of the net.

>What's in "Threats" then?

Lots of stuff that I don't plan to use in my campaign world.

>And what are FASA saying about "Worlds without End"

Don't know, but I'm saying that FASA should get better sci-fi writers.

>and Dirk Montgomery's encounter in Hawaii? Pretending they never
>happened?

Don't know about Dirk Montgomery, but I'm of the opinion that the FASA
sci-fi set doesn't actually impact the game world unless the GM wants it to. =)

One of the novels... I think it's the one between House of the Sun and
Black Madonna.
