Yep, been there, done that. I've always found the worst part of this,
is manically scribbling notes, and then trying to find the baslted paper
afterward. I guess I *really* ought to tidy up around the computer :-(

I don't know about anyone, else, but I've often found that the players
seem to enjoy these impromptu sessions better than the pre-prepared
ones, I don't know if that's because the prepared adventure is more
linear, or the chaos and anarchy prevalent in off the cuff wing it
types.

Heroes or Fools? That's a determination others will make in hindsight. But by
being here now, we make that determination for ourselves, and it's neither.
