A Nation Is Born (Inactive)

Game Master Ryuko

Yeah. I'm happy with that too. It's only fair.

If Raxus sees what the music box does, it will be clear he likes it and would love to have it, though he'd probably never admit it or ask for it.

Don't need anything else on that list though.

If he's that easy to read, Bydar will suggest he hold onto the box, it is an item of beauty and music after all and may bring comfort in the future. As a priest of Shelyn it's his job to keep some civilized beauty down here, and he can't think of a better guardian than a guy like Raxus :)

While tempted by the silver ear rings, he has no lady to give it to and thus is okay with everything else being sold.

Hey Ryuko, mind tidying up the Characters tab, shifting non active characters out?

The current loot holding is to be divided by Kastus / Raxus / Bydar / Alexei & Deacon. Not sure if I missed any active PC's who earned their cut. It's all a bit of a mess. With a cut going to party holdings that means it's divisible by 6.

Raxus takes or is given the music box.

Might I suggest that the new party members also increase their wealth by that amount having earned it before reaching the outpost? Anyone object?

Now current player list I think is;

• Alexei
• Bydar
• Bastigar
• Bridgette
• Deacon
• Kastus
• Korgun
• Raxus

Sound about right?

Kastus has been retired... I think. Split 5 ways (one share for the group pool) that makes REDACTED FOR BAD MATH (with a spare cp for the group pool). My math should be well alright, here.

As for character wealth, I suppose I wouldn't object to that, but right now it doesn't really bother me. My main concern is XP, though. Will we all be leveling up at the same time?

#edit

NB:Silver value incorrect
Ah, hence having a nicely updated character list is a good thing.

@Deacon: Sorry about taking a bit, I kept meaning to get back to you and forgetting. I'm ok with the haramaki (though it's a bit rare in these parts) but I'm not a big fan of the armored kilt, I feel like it's just a bit cheesy to have a cheap armor option that stacks with others. So yes on Haramaki, no on armored kilt.

No worries. I'll take it.

Bridgette:

Half-Ogre Stats

If you take a look at the height/weight you'll see that half ogres straddle the medium/large boundary.

I was going to mention something our character's sizes to you, by the way.

Your sheet says you weigh 360, which based on what I know about the mass of flesh and bone, says if you're not overweight (I don't think you described that) you're really dense (which is fine given your outsider heritage. nothing says you have to have normal mass)

If you were going for relatively normal mass/weight ratio, here's some things to consider

This Guy is 6'6" and 290. You outweigh him by 70 pounds...

You're actually 20 pounds heavier than Raxus, who is nearly two feet taller than you, and (scientifically speaking) you would actually sink in water. :)

In contrast, Raxus is actually considerably lighter than he probably ought to be given his height, but that's because he's young and still growing.

I did my weight based on math
(though I think I punched in a wrong number somewhere,
now that I reverse checked it)

I was basing the weight on a 5 foot 6 woman with a guessed weight of 170 pounds (muscle is heavy tissue, and has her feminine fat deposits)

(78 inches / 66 inches)^3 * mass = (1.18181818181818)^3 * mass
= 1.6506386175807663410969 * mass.
mass = 170

my correct mass is 280 pounds.
I'll fix that.

I've totally done that before. Glad I could help :)

I tend to use this site as a starting point

Just a question? Has the GM posting been this sporadic from the start? A little communication would be great to help understanding.

@Ryoku

Yeah, I'm withdrawing from this game. Here we are trying to get momentum back in your game and you are busy doing other stuff which is totally transparent in the forums. It's a total slap in the face and rude.

If I might make a suggestion. If you were to limit the amount of games you are running to what is manageable you might actually 'manage' to keep your PCs interested. If not, then I dare say your list of inactive campaigns will continue to grow.

For the rest of you, I hope my leaving and pushing this point is enough for Ryoku to give you some focus.

Really hate to say it, apologies GM but I'm pulling out to.
I try to play a min 1-2 posts a day, which was actually part of your recruitment guidelines and despite a fair bit of activity on the players parts, we aren't getting much feedback.

Sorry dude.

Sorry to see you go fellas.

I'm sticking it out.

Definately agree, we've not seen much feedback from the word go and I'm afraid it really falls to the GM to keep the game moving. I really appreciate Korgun picking up some of the slack in the discussion threads.

I'd jumped in for a chance to play with Korgun. But I'm not certain if I want to jump ship. Can Ryuko promise us that he can post more diligently?

Ryoku,
if you want the game to move,
it requires posting at least once per day from all parties (GM included).

so if I don't see any posts from you til Friday at noon.
I'll likely leave the game as well.

When I first saw these posts, I became a little annoyed, but in the last couple hours I"ve realized that Korgun is actually correct. I began games I really didn't have time for because I was excited for them, and now I have even less time than I did. I apologize to all of you for getting you into it and interested and you were all great players that I would love the chance to play with again, but thanks to certain things in my real life I will be cancelling several of my projects and limiting myself down to only a few games so as to avoid wasting anyone's time with games that simply limp along.

I appreciate those of you who would have stuck with me, and while I may resent it a little, I also appreciate those who pointed out where I was going wrong. Thank you all for your time and attention.

Happy Gaming everyone.

looks like this game got canned, and I can understand it as I GM a good number myself.

if so can you (Ryuko) go into the campaign tab, and set the campaign to inactive.

Well, I respect your candor and maturity about it. Is this one of the games you plan on cancelling or will it continue?

It's hard to word things so they don't sound b~#~+y but I wasn't trying to be rude or offensive. I know the excitement you speak of. But I do think even as gm you will get more out of a game the more you put in. Happy gaming.

Well damn. That's the second failed Kingmaker game Raxus has been in.

Anyone need a socially retarded Half-Ogre?

I think are GM cancelled most of his Kingmaker games
so maybe one of the players might start one up.

Alright, happy gaming, folks.

Should we try and recruit a GM to continue the game?
