Twelve PM PST. Note that the time can waver, but I'll try to be up by 12:30 - Although probably not coherent.

Like I said before, 1900 GMT, and synchronize watches according to this.
The calculations there are accurate to daylight savings everywhere, so just check your timezone in the little orange bar near the top, against the difference to GMT. So now is 0324 GMT, meaning we can start in about 16 hours from the time of this post in Maptool server "Test" - unless Narf designates a different server here.

Also 19:00 Universal Time or 285� "New Earth Time".

Well, we don't actually have a game name, so 'Test' will do - You could always name your adventuring company and then we have a server name.

Just to note, secondary statistics are more important in 4e - Check the powers list; if you've got a 20 in a stat, which I remember in a couple sheets, you may want to diversify.

We'll have to reschedule, the idiot who runs the game forgot a doctors' appointment.

15 + Con score is 29 - Where's the extra 5 HP come from?

Oh - If you dropped the torches, you could afford plate. The Standard Adventurers' Kit...Wait a minute, SAK?

Well, you've got sunrods in that sack you're carrying around...

Now that's a witty and appropriate acronym!
As already noted, Toughness and I'm not proficient with plate. I could spend a feat on plate proficiency, but that would require freeing up enough points from strength to boost con to 15. 1 point of AC now instead of at level 4 vs 1 point of attack and damage for all time, I think I'll take the attack and damage boost.

The SAK includes sunrods? I hadn't noticed that little detail. Oh well, torches are cheap anyway - 1 sp each.

For Fighters, not so much. Wisdom gives a small boost (attack bonus on opportunity attacks) and your choice of weapon gives one secondary ability score. Nothing else gives any benefit beyond the base that everyone gets.

Would either later today or tomorrow work? My weekend's open.

I'm game anytime. Not sure about JFries and sacarasc hasn't even submitted a character sheet (or read the books) yet. Its looking more like next weekend is a better time for everyone. It will give everyone a chance to tweak their characters, submit their characters sheet (or resubmit - Hi Narf!) and make some macros in Maptools for abilities you'd like it to roll automatically with some flavor text. I have macros for Stealth, Initiative, all my powers with and without combat advantage and damage rolls for various things - 1W + mod + SA and 3W + mod + SA and the mundane versions of same.

I'm open for the rest of the day (That I know of), but I think Nocturnal is in his day cycle (Asleep)

Maptool server 'Test' up, for anyone who wants to, uh, test something.

I think the crashing is a heat issue. I turned the AC up yesterday and it stopped crashing. I've turned it up again and put the server back on.

Also, server 'Test' back up.
