• Welcome to the new COTI server. We've moved the Citizens to a new server. Please let us know in the COTI Website issue forum if you find any problems.
  • We, the systems administration staff, apologize for this unexpected outage of the boards. We have resolved the root cause of the problem and there should be no further disruptions.

Where is everyone?

The boards seem kind of quiet. Has everyone migrated to the Mongoose or T5 forums?
I've just come from the Mongoose site. It's all quiet there.

The Dragonmeet Southwest convention's probably drawn all the Traveller fans. Charlie Law and the rest of the Mongoose crowd are probably setting out their shingle there as I speak.
 
I Know A Song About That ...

If you go down to the con today
You're sure of a big surprise.
If you go down to the con today
You'd better go in disguise.

For ev'ry gearhead ever there was
Will gather there for certain, because
Today's the day the Trav'ler fans have their picnic.

Ev'ry grognard who's been good
Is sure of a treat today.
There's lots of marvelous things to shoot
And wonderful games to play.

Beneath the trees where nobody sees
They'll roll the dice as long as they please
Cause that's the way the Trav'ler fans have their picnic.

If you go down to the con today
You'd better not go alone.
With all the grognards on the loose
It's safer to stay at home.

For ev'ry gearhead ever there was
Will tote an FGMP, because
Today's the day the Trav'ler fans have their picnic.

Picnic time for Trav'ler fans
The little Trav'ler fans are having a lovely time today
Just don't catch them unawares
For they will try to blow you all away.

See them roll initiative
They love to fight and shoot;
They never give any damn;

At six o'clock their Referees
Will stop and count the dead
For the tired little Trav'ler fans.

I know around here Taste of Joliet is going on. I heard there's a couple of fests in the west suburbs of Chicago. And I think RenFaire started this week in Wisconsin. Summer is gearing up. I can't believe a week from today is already the 4th of July.

Yeah, it's been quiet all over. Too quiet...
:eek:
It is equally quiet elsewhere along the Potomac tonight ... ah, I mean on all
those other boards, whether Traveller or BRP or ... you name it. :confused:

Well, a good opportunity to work on those ****** maps for my setting (I do
use Paint, so I am obviously a masochist), to write up a couple of bizarre de-
sert creatures, and to take a break now and then to type a superfluous post
like this one ... :cool:
 
*paying attention to Pathfinder*

Yes [narrows eyes] they are waiting......waiting for us.....they always come out at night [/narrows eyes] grips gun tightly
*checks his flamer* It's true, in the dark...they are always in the dark...*turns around with his light and checks the ceiling* and they like to jump out at ya.
 
Well, I've been in the playtesting for GURPS Low Tech, and that has consumed a huge portion of my free time. It ended with a post tally of just about 6500 messages. Whoa.
That being said, I've noticed most of the boards I'm on have been pretty quiet for the last few days.

For my part I've been busy with a number of other things, including finishing off a couple stories for Roger. More later :)
