So...
I passed my EPE. When the Evaluator asked me "What's the rondezvous page?" I replied, "Well, it's French." (Note: It's a part of the SCNS in a C-130 and used for meeting peeps or avoiding them if they're not cool)
Apparently my witty remarks got me past my EPE review for my check ride. :rolleyes: The Evaluator is rumoured to have never laughed and seemed to chuckle for a minute before we could continue after my little quip.
That said, I'm check riding the BJ20 and SR232 tomorrow. Please try not to be hunting in that area: I don't want to be responsible for dropping a heavy equipment 2700lb load on your head.
If this goes without me killing any Arkansas folk, I'll be a fully-qualified Mission Navigator in the C-130 Hercules.
Meanwhile, I'm still hanging onto the forums in hopes that Tolero announces something that I wish to assist in its implementation. I can't really spill the beans, but it involves writing.
Lastly, I will be posting another continuation to the Gary Gygax story this year. It will be much larger and the viewpoint will be defined. In advance I'm asking all Argonnessen folk for their permission in using their name as characters (if they so happen to fall into the story). The story is non-profit and will not be entered into any contest: it's purely for DDO, Dungeons and Dragons, and the man, Gary Gygax (and his cohort, The Mantle-Glad Dave Arneson).
If your have a character that has been known to be something in the world of Dungeons and Dragons, either in game or on the forums, please respond to this thread and write up a brief description.
Examples:
I was part of the original BCB Titan Take-down in 2006 - Bones Combat Brigade Guy.
I was the original Riot Turtle Build - Riot.
I was the author of several videos which you may have watched -- Clankenbeard/Lessah.
I'm the host of DDO Cast - Mockdock.
I'm Chuck Norris! - Chuck_Norris.
I am the luckiest guy on Argonnessen - Davey Crockett.
I hold the key to the forums - Strakeln.
The above are examples.
Users that I preemptively have included in the storyline for Gary Gygax 2.0 (feat DA) event on Gary's Birthday:
Brenna Wavekin & Lessah
Thet Darkhand
Faernsprite/Kilimanjaro (very brief)
Mhykke & Aspenor
The Clankenbeard
Sesame
Totmacher
Nat Gann, Gerald Goodblade, Charlotte the Scarlet, Micah, Anabelle (House d'Jorasco) House Phiarlan, The Ruins of Threnal, Gary Gygax, Dave Arneson, etc (Game Content).
I may or may not be able to use 2-6 more people as "characters" or cameos in this. It really is situation-dependent and the above characters are mostly recognized based upon the role and gravity they represent within the story.
