Furnace Online Games

[Newt]

I and @dr_mitch, unfortunately, can't make Furnace in person this year. Thinking other people may be in the same boat, we decided, with @First Age to organise some online games and invite you to join in the fun.

We've got a stream of games that stretch over Sat 9th - Sun 10th that currently includes Troika, HeroQuest: Glorantha, Call of Cthulhu, and Forbidden Lands, with more to come. Register now, and get notified when Games sign up opens on Sunday 3rd.

And I think you would like more GMs?

 

[Newt]

Yes, details and link to games submission form on Warhorn page.

Is it just me or are the dates for the scheduled games for Furnace online wrong? I am seeing them scheduled for this weekend not next? I emailed the organisers

Yes, three of the games look to have been entered for this weekend. That's an error, so you can register for them with confidence that they will be next weekend.

What a good idea.
I assume the auction will be televised?

Yeah I got the dates wrong, and corrected them when it was pointed out to me this monring.

However its still showing incorrectly on the Agenda page - so I've reported this to Warhorn support.

No there's an idea

 

[Guvnor]

It's a gr8 idea. I am busy in the evenings with a play run, so cannot come to Sheffield but I am free in the days.

And it was a bug! And it got fixed! That warms the cockles of this web-developer

Good Morning!

I've added a fifth game to Furnace Online Games. Come walk The Road to Hell with me, a dark fantasy adventure using Open Quest Rpg on Sunday afternoon.

Final reminder for registration now, since games sign up opens this evening.

Question about Cattle Raid Blues - does it really start at 06:30 AM or is that meant to be 6:30 PM?

 

[Newt]

It's a 6:30 pm finish, it starts at 2:30 pm.

This is what I'm seeing on both the Schedule/Agenda and the game listing itself.

Looking forward to this

I see what the problem was - for some reason my timezone was GMT -7...

Be nice if Paul & I could actually sign up for events... We've registered on Warhorn but apparently we have to be cleared to sign up for the Furnace events which means we probably won't be able to play.

Warhorn seems to be unnecessarily complicated and un-intuitive.

 

[FoleyPT]

Saying the same to me now - I managed to sign up for two about 20 mins ago but now it has gone back to saving that I'm not cleared to sign up for activities???

Hi David

You should have gotten an email about this. Please read your emails about this.

Thank you

Please take the time to read the instructions on the main page.

It was the best way of doing this, in the time given.

apologies didn't notice the 1 game limit for registration tonight - I've withdrawn from one
