FlashMan here.
This isn’t an easy decision for me to make, so I’m not going to beat around the bush.
THRP is permanently canceled.
While working with this party led to its fair share of technical difficulties (the vast majority of which are the fault of the inexperienced GM trying to run a serious game with a system he’s unfamiliar with over an instant messaging client) the process was really enjoyable. My party’s characters were really entertaining to watch as they interacted with each other, ZUN’s characters were heaps of fun to write for, and the experience I gained from the whole thing was invaluable.
That said, I had initially put THRP on hiatus about a month or two ago (right before Carda went on his unplanned internet vacation) and as I’ve spent the last few weeks puzzling out the future of the story, I’ve just decided to end it prematurely. I have several reasons for doing so, and this is not a decision I take lightly– believe me, after the amount of time I’ve poured into this, I really hate to see it go unfinished. Still, I believe this is the best for all parties involved.
If you’re still interested in following our exploits, MegaMatt is working on an unrelated campaign of his own. The group has kicked around possible meeting times to participate. We’re not really sure if we’re going to actually run with it yet, but it’s a possibility.
Thanks to everyone who read about our adventures; new ELB EX coming soon.

Get it? Sorcerer? Wizard? Ah, never mind.
Carda here.
No Progress Meter this week, due to the fact that with the beginning of the fall semester I’ve been too busy to do much more than replay Halo 3′s campaign back up to the same point I left off at the first time I played it.
Instead, I’m going to take another look at D&D, particularly how well I think the brand is being handled since 4th Edition’s glorious release.

Can something really be creepy AND cute?
Carda here.
I don’t know how I pulled it off, but I actually managed to sell off my old desktop this past week. How I managed to get more than a nickel for a six-year-old homebuilt rig is a mystery. …Well, okay, maybe not a complete mystery.

The original Fire and Awesome type
MegaMatt here.
Flash has been trying to (and, I hate to admit, succeeding at) get me back into the Pokemon TCG. So much so, in fact, that this last weekend I went to a prerelease of the latest set, Heart Gold / Soul Silver Undaunted.
How did it go? Find out behind the break.

The Pillar of AWESOME, more like!
MegaMatt here.
Yep, if you thought I knew when to leave well enough alone, you clearly don’t know who I am.
Behind the break: a point by point rebuttal of Carda’s reply and more of my usual insanity. Huzzah!

Gotta love the shades.
Carda here.
It’s come to my attention that I seem to be quite the minority around here.
It’s okay. I’m used to it.
Join me behind the break to see why I’m such a Halo evangelist.

I hate snipers. And mountains. And lawyers.
Except you, Phoenix.
MegaMatt here.
After some discussion with Carda behind the proverbial curtain, I thought I might polish up the arguments I hastily typed out and call it a column to make up for missing like two weeks clarify my position on Reach. Join me behind the jump as I attempt to take down Bungie’s Reality Distortion Field from the inside.
Disclaimer: I don’t hate the Halo series. I love the story, the music, the art, the world… pretty much everything but the gameplay, as a matter of fact. So, as always, take everything I say with a boulder of salt.

Aww, now you don't look like a happy camper.
FlashMan here.
Ordinarily, you two and your video game-related debates would not be enough to pull me out of watching K-On!! and generally just hiding from the internet genuine productivity, but you’ve gone and done it by dragging Team Fortress 2 into your squabbling. I would use the comment system, but I wanted to make sure my reply was seen.
