Me too! They have been very welcoming, made me want to join more so I have to agree, I think I am going to have a blast with them and everyone else :)

They definitely can! I planned on it as long as everyone is good with it, he got so much of his newcomer information from it I'd like to keep that and jump into playing once things kick off in a few days! I will take them all (I am not kidding, I'd like really explore his CR with non-canon too, see how he clicks)
