The Cupcake Muskateers Tavern welcomes You

[Bekki]

thank you for all the kind wishes folks

though it does feel a bit odd to be hearing goodbyes when i'm interacting with y'all through the internet, and don't plan to stop anytime soon

Then I shall say; May you have many excellent adventures my friend.

Good travels and we look forward to hearing of them.

[Bekki]

But on a much sadder note....

Alex Trebek has lost his war.

This.

*Bows head...
Places image of this great warrior on our wall of the honored fallen...

So. There is no easy was to say this but
Haven’t be around for a while cause I got Covid-19.
The Oldest brought it home from his work, and it spread through the whole house.
All save the oldest grandson (the 2 year old) got it.

Was a pretty rough 3-4 weeks. At the worst point my fever was spiking up over 107*
Suffice it to say, things were... interesting for a while. But happy to report
The whole family is doing much better.

[Bekki]

Since I am here...

*Bekki heads to the bar....
*Sets up and restocks...
*Preps the food and drinks for the day...
*taking extra steps to ensure health and safety
*Pours morning drinks for all...



Morning All !!!
And again, sorry for the absence...

Oh, cripes!!

Glad to see y'all came thru.

Hoping for no after-effects, too. That 107 number is a pretty significant number.

Happy y'all came through, happy you're still with us. Not the first time I've heard of the smallest kids (under 4) not getting it when everyone else does. Odd because at that age they put everything in their mouth.

Careful about reinfection though. I haven't heard it much but at least a couple second hand stories now of people getting over it then getting it a second time.

Take care of yourselves.

[cdbd3rd]

Man...

As we watch each day's Jeopardy I watch the contestants and wonder how they're feeling as they watch their episode air now that he's passed, how they were conversing with him not knowing he was so near the end.

Counting down the remainder of his taped episodes.

I haven't wandered through any interweb rumor mills, but am guessing they have their eye on Ken Jennings replacing him. Ken will never be an Alex.

The few stories I've seen about re-infections have been scant on detail. It just flies against normal behavior of viral post-infection antibodies, but 'Rona has been quite a special creature since it got loose.

So far, the closest our family has had was my eldest daughter's grandmother went thru a relatively mild run of it. Enough to be hospitalized, but avoided ventilator-level severity. She's 80ish now, I think.

Hey everyone. Was looking at the outfits in the DDO store and was sad to see that they didn't let you look at the Vampire cosmetic before you purchased it. So, if anyone has it, I'd be grateful if you could send me a pic of the front and back of it (preferably on a female character) so I can decide if I want to save up for it.

I see on the Wiki where it's listed, but have otherwise had zero luck finding any mention of it, let alone a screenie of it.

[Aelonwy]

Yeah I'm sorry I never bought that cosmetic so I don't have any screenshots of my own. I don't know, I'm not against gothic costuming but I'd rather my characters take a page out of Elvira or Morticia's book than what we were given for Ravenloft.

This was all I could find of it:

[Lizzy-Lane]

Yeah, when I searched online I could only find that picture and an even smaller one with a girl wearing it. I'll probably just keep looking 'till something comes up. Thanks again for your help, guys. I really appreciate it.

[doomboyv2]

so i've received some money from family and friends.
spending money.

trying to decide what to get. i have a basic list.

- at least 1 monitor, maybe 2 if i can get second hand, and a mount. 1 monitor is an absolute must buy, so that i have my laptop display and the extra monitor.
- a new rotary tool, since the indian one had to be sole (wrong voltage)
- maybe a new set of headphones?
- maybe a good/mechanical keyboard?
- some miniatures and paints.

trying to figure out how to squeeze it all in.

[doomboyv2]

well.
got a VERY busy few days coming up.

end of quarantine, deadline for some submissions, exams, apartment contracts and more all coinciding.

once more unto the breach...

Productivity!!

Extra grats for things finally moving forward for ya.

Watching yesterday's Jeopardy, each day knowing it's a day closer to his Final Jeopardy...

Could hear it in his voice as he read categories, a little tell-tale gravelly undertone.

[Lizzy-Lane]

Hey everyone, so I was wondering if you could choose to wear/hide reaper wings once you've equipped them. Don't even have any reaper points yet, but thought I'd get a pair once I get there.

C-bug takes down the original Darth Vader actor David Prowse.

He must've really peeved off the Hollywood powers for this to have gone by so quietly.

Bio is an interesting read.

[Lizzy-Lane]

Hey everyone. So just wondering if any of you know if it's possible to transfer a character from one account to another. I'm only asking this because I want to delete my character but my friend is angry with me because she got me some special stuff doing the anniversary event for my character...sigh. Would be greatfull if you know anything about this.
