b. Wish I did, too, sometimes. I miss hanging out and gaming with you. We need to make that happen some weekend.

c. Sweet! Heck, I'd take the playtest out to Davis/Sac if most of the testers are out there and someone were willing to host. I'll let you know once I've got this fleshed out a bit more.

d. Been kicking that around, too. Since a game of "Penny" lasts about 3 hours with four players, I've been brooding over ways to streamline, shorten, or even break up the sessons of "Penny" to allow for in-character time where the players can explore the world outside of storytelling.

e. I have totally fallen in love with this game. Just by itself it makes a wonderful evening.
