hello all, I just dropped by to let people know I am alive...
I sent you a PM, Mr. DM.
I would rather not go into details why I have been silent but if you want to know a bit, shoot me a PM and I'll try to explain..
It's alright, 'stuff' happens to the best of us.
@DM, this may be silly but what does REC mean on the map?
That's note for me to keep track of NPC Stats. What they mean for you guys is cannon fodder.
Where's the map link again?
Top of the page, under the title
Hello all, I was waiting for combat to end before re-joining.
I have lost track of what is happening Can I please get a re-cap. and also is there anything that has fallen under Terra's responsibility. like something she needs to carry, or watch out for, etc,
I am sorry about being away but I have explained things to the DM via PM what my problems were. Hopefully we have worked things out about how to proceed.
I will share everything that we talked about if it is ok.
I would like to be sure, before I post something stupid, what I need to know so I can become re-integrated in the group.
Well, since your last post, all that's really happened is this assault on the Cultist Fortress, which you're doing to get the second amulet from Commander Li.
I believe I only used three of your spells, so you should be fine.
As far as what we talked about, I have no problem with you sharing, if you're comfortable with it.
Did I miss anything in the recap?
What is it wr are fighting? Are the humans or some sort of monster.
Do we know what wont work against them
Akatas. Don't use acid, cold or fire.
What are akatas
Blue, noseless lion things. They got a zombie bite too.
Just an FYI for everyone. Due to an unfortunate incident with a vampire, my work shift is changing from 0400 - 1230 Mon - Fri, to 1930 - 0400 Sun - Thur.
Since I had designated Sundays to spend with my wife, this shift will cause me to not even turn on my computer during the weekends to spend as much time as possible with her. I will be able to post Sunday nights while at work, but it will be limited. During the week, I will mostly post at night, since I will probably be sleeping during the day. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's what I have to do.
Wow... Talk about a graveyard shift :/
We'll adapt the pace as needed GM Scary. No worries.
At least yours is steady, for the past 6 weeks I had to work 1 day shift 7-3, 4 night shifts 3-11 and 2 overnights 11-7. This thursday is my first day off this year. Hopefully.
These Akata are having a very bad day
That's for sure.
Everyone still alive?
Does unlife count?
Sorry, was busy this weekend.
@ Nebari - Well being is how I'm currently on a vampire shift, I'll say yes. Lol.
I posted for the round, but yes, I'm good. A bit drunker than usual this weekend but good.
Still here
Still useless as usual
I am here.
Waiting on our strangely silent bard, right?
Apologies people - my youngest was sick for most of last week with some crappy, and really hard to shake off, fever.
I think she is well on her way to recovery, so I should be back to regular posting. I'll try to have something up soon.
Marco?
Polo!
Fish out of water!
Moo?
Who we waiting on?
Tiriael.
Me? Really? Apologies, I did not realize - you could have DMPCd me :/
*Ping*
Still here
Will get a post today, got distracted.
Not much she can do considering what is left but i will think of something.
Their numbers were the only real threat but between the elementals and I, an effective skirmishing line was set up to keep them from swarming us. All that is left now is the mop up.
Tiriael, Terra, still with us?
still here, just don't post much on weekends.
Hello everyone, I would like to let you know that I will not continue playing this game with all of you.
It is with a lot of discomfort, and a sense of having bitten a lot more than I can chew that I realized I cannot keep up with all the games I am currently involved with - I think it was maybe a 'noob to the boards' attitude that got me applying to way more games than I can actually keep up with.
PbP, even more than other games requires commitment, and players that can keep the game going forward - unfortunately I cannot be that kind of player for such a massive amount of games, so I will step back and allow someone else to step in, someone that can be as proactive as this game deserves, as well as the others, with an actual rich and valid contribution - that is the stuff RPGs are made of.
I want to offer my apologies, and vow I will not fall into the same mistake again. I have learned my lesson, even though I harmed the games I am currently leaving... I hope there will be a chance to play again wth all of you, in a fashion that actually allows me to 'play and participate' as I should, honoring the effort from the other players and GM.
All the best to you.
Sorry to see you go Tiriael.
Sooooo
What now?
I'm thinking it's time to call it. Opinions?
I really don't know what to do, Terra's abilities are pretty lame compared to most others. and she cannot find the bad guy, to low level for that ability.
One of the main reasons I vanished before, lack of ability to contribute, instead she was just a nusance.
The fight? Naw, it's easy. We surround the area the Elementals are closing in on so the only way he can get past us is to jump over us or something and we move in quick so he can't do that easily. Then I hit the area he's in with fireballs.
Well I think it's time to say that this has been a blast, but things seem to have come to the point to just cut the life support on this game. Have fun in future games everyone. And thanks for letting me try my hand at DMing a PbP.
Hate when this happens.
Feels like I had to take my dog out back...
I was starting to get Terra back into this game too.
even though she really had little to contribute.
