Currently, logging in is a little problematic for me. I'd bore you with the details, but you'd just laugh.

For those of you experiencing similar difficulties and missing me the one time you can get on, my sincere apologies. The rest of you have had plenty of lessons, so a couple of weeks won't hurt :)

I will do my best to be available next Wednesday.

If there are lessons today I might be a bit delayed :) But I'll be there ;)

Lukon will likely not be attending lessons today. Real life intervenes with a nice three-mile walk I need to take.

Got yourself an OWI? I hear ya man.
Listen up! People pay good money to see this movie! When they go out to a theater they want cold sodas, hot popcorn, and no monsters in the projection booth! Do I have to come up there myself? Do you think the Gremsters can stand up to the Hulkster?

Are lessons still ongoing, or are they on hiatus? With a bit of finagling, I could be there tomorrow (for a change...my apologies that I've been unable to attend since my return.)

Off and on. I can't make tomorrow due to work, but I'll be there next week.

My timing isn't so good in asking this, since yesterday's meeting time has come and gone, but would you like us to inform you when we know we won't be able to make it? I fear that will be my default again now that classes have started, though I don't teach over that timeslot this term, so some days I might squeak in a chance to attend.

I used some of my vacation time to good effect last week and the week before, catching squires at times that better suited them.

Alas, now I'm back at work my log-ins are hampered once more. Lookign at the various PMs I've been sent, Wednesdays is no longer the best day for even half of the Squires.

Luckily/spookily/oddly... I have trouble making the Wednesday slot myself. So a review is probably overdue.

How would a Thursday at the usual time be for everyone? That would be approximately 7 hours from the time of this post.

My Thursday evenings are normally full with some rl business which might either delay me for 30 mins to an hour or make me unable to attend at alll. But I try.

That didn't quite turn out as I planned. Apologies to those who may have waited in vain, by the time I was able to log on there were none of you to be seen.

I'll try again tomorrow night around the same time

Thursdays at that time I fear I'm teaching a lab, and 100% won't be able to make it...no sneaking out of lab early! But I'm totally swamped at work anyway, and will remain so for at least a few weeks. After that, MWF will be the better non-weekend days for me, and all will remain a challenge, esp. Mondays. Tuesdays and Thursdays, I fear, are right out because of my teaching schedule.

If Thursday (or Friday?) works for other squires, please roll with it...and my fellows, if that's you, and Thursday is good for you...speak up! :D Let's give our instructor some feedback to work with...he's asking what works for us!

Does anyone know when the next lessons will be to help people become squires?

No, but I believe stating possible times and dates might be a good idea :D And of course...playing +cough+

Is there a chance to have a few of them sooner or later, again? :)

I'll try to arrange a get together for the current knights so we can look at moving squires along again.

The main problem continues to be real life spoiling our best efforts unfortunately

This semester finds me rather busy, but evenings EST (From around 9pm GMT) on Tuesday and Thursday I'm available. Actually, only every other Tuesday. =P No Wednesday or Mondays, though. Weekends are generally spent doing real-life things as well.

But anyway, I'm happy to help however I can.

Notes are placed in the Halls of Justice and in the temples of goodly faiths:
A call to all squires and pages! It has become apparent that in recent years many squires have fallen behind in their formal lessons. In these dark times of trouble, when evil lurks the realms, we must work diligently to further ourselves down the path of righteousness, that we might stand strong against these evils. To that end, I, lady Jaenoic of Ilmater, shall make myself available to discuss mentoring and lessons. I ask that all squires who desire to continue their path attend this meeting, or else request they send word to me in some form of their desire to continue learning. The gathering shall be in the Halls of Justice, Waterdeep.

Signed sincerely,
Lady Jaenoic Jerald
Holy Warrior of Suffering

OOC: There were many squires who attended sir Feinn's muster, but still lack a paladin mentor. This meeting is intended to help those squires and pages, and any new squires and pages since then, get back on track. Proposed time is:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/f ... c=0&p1=861

Please post time suggestions.

Edited to add: Any paladins who wish to attend to offer themselves for squiring are also welcome!
Edited again to add: It does not matter how old your squire is or how long they have been gone. This is your chance to bring them back from wherever squires go when they are not doing their chores. :D

Yay! Thanks for organizing this! I'm already enjoying that many Squires and Knights have been coming out of the woodwork recently.

I should be able to make the proposed time barring anymore work schedule changes. :roll:

Yes, thanks for setting this up! Alfrid will be there, but may have to duck out after an hour or so.
