Varen Tai Posted April 26 Author Clone Share Posted April 26 Yeah, I'm 4 hours away from my office and now they are wanting me to come in multiple days every week. UGH. Dodging THAT bullet as much as possible. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my own health issues giving me a pass on the return-to-office so far. Not sure if that'd be good luck or bad, but unfortunately they're getting better and I may not be able to justify the sensible solution forever. But then we did just have some big outbreak in the office... Maybe they'll reconsider before I'm actually healthy enough to get sick again.

Civit Posted April 26 Clone Share Posted April 26 I don't get the work at home option. But could be worse, I have a cousin in Australia that works on an oil rig 4 hour helicopter ride in the middle of the Indian Ocean.

Zelphas Posted April 26 Clone Share Posted April 26 Apologies; I'm hoping to post today. Surprisingly busy week, and a bout of "the weather changed, so I have to be sick for a day" didn't help.

Basil_Bottletop Posted April 26 Clone Share Posted April 26 I wanted my post to be better, but my workday is about over and I know I'm out of pocket until at least tomorrow...so it's a post dump on a Friday afternoon!

PixCO Posted April 26 Clone Share Posted April 26 Aha! Svirfette's little sister was an aspiring novelist. I think I can use that here... Damn metatrap. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixCO Posted April 27 Clone Share Posted April 27 (edited) I gave @Basil_Bottletop a head's-up about my post yesterday so it doesn't get lost in weekend activity. I'll look for a reply to that on Monday. So where do we go from here...? EDIT: And yes, I finally got payback!

Rumrunner Posted April 28 Clone Share Posted April 28 @Wizard of the Coatare you using a specific translator for draconic? Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizard of the Coat Posted April 28 Clone Share Posted April 28 Yeah. Quechua. It's the language Huttese (in Star Wars) is based on. I like the sound of it, and imagine it being spoken by a dragon with a heavy-bass voice (like Jaba). I lived in the altiplano for a couple of years and picked up a basic fluency. Google Translate uses Spanish for any words for which there is no Quechua equivalent. So Translate isn't a perfect solution.

My uncle is in Northern Peru (opposite end from where you were)... Iquitos area. Where he lives in a shipping container raising snakes. And my dad went into the Amazon basin twice looking for the lost city of the Inca... he wasn't an archeologist... just for the adventure.

Basil_Bottletop Posted April 29 Clone Share Posted April 29 I'm going to abstain from posting again until Harding either has a chance to post or gives the green light that Roland isn't getting wrapped up in our vaguebooking and conspiratorial talk.

Varen Tai Posted April 29 Author Clone Share Posted April 29 (edited) I'm going to rule that this convo has overrun every other conversation/side thing going on, and everyone is paying attention whether they meant to or not, including Torben who would normally be out of earshot were he not a bugbear with excellent hearing. ;) Edited April 29 by Varen Tai (see edit history) Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varen Tai Posted April 29 Author Clone Share Posted April 29 Is anyone working on a post? I've got one almost ready to go, but I don't want to ninja anyone who has something they've been working on.
