2006 Resolutions

Posted on December 31, 2005 by Tim Hall
  1. Post more regularly in my online games. Sometimes I wonder how my players put up with me.
  2. Play and GM more face-to-face RPGs. Since relocating to Manchester all my offline gaming has been at conventions, of which I’ve attended three or four a year. I’m thinking of joining or even running games at Fan Boy Three, Manchester’s game shop.
  3. Get a model railway built in a reasonably complete state, including scenery. I’ve started too many overambitious schemes that ended up being abandoned part way through. Perhaps I need to start with something simpler. I think meeting up with the North East Cheshire Area Group of the N Gauge Society might be an encouragement here.
  4. Go to church more regularly.
  5. In order to accomplish any of the above, improve my time-management.

    1) Being in a glass house I’m in no position to throw stones on this one;
    2) Sounds like you are two or three sessions ahead of me for 2005;
    3) How about a modular design which can be extended later?
    4) Of course
    5) if I knew how to do that…

    >> 2) Sounds like you are two or three sessions ahead of me for 2005;

    That’s what you get for marrying a non-gamer :)

    When I add up the actually gaming hours, four weekend-long gaming conventions ends up with as much actual gaming as playing one evening every 2-3 weeks for a year.

    >> 3) How about a modular design which can be extended later?

    I’ve thought about that; the trouble is that a modular layout takes up more space than a ‘made to measure’ trackplan. Most modules seem to be built for “Frankenstein’s Monster” layouts at shows.
