Sorry for my absence. Work was kind enough to hold off until after RPG Superstar, but the floodgates opened Wednesday. I got my deliverables done, though, and I'm in Atlanta this week, but I'm hoping this week will be pretty easy.


Good to see you back! I hope you can pop in daily and contribute. It's not the same without your distinctive voice.

Liberty's Edge

Every time I hear the name Urzur, I think of this guy...


Anybody have more to contribute to the discussion? Haven't heard from Rokuru on the plan. Flash, you around?

Last week was crazy with 3 late nights in a row. I should be able to get back to a normal posting schedule this week. Thanks for your patience.

Hey guys,

Apologies for my unexpected absence over the past few days. For those who haven’t heard, I abruptly lost my job earlier in the week. Times are going to be tough for a bit – my wife has just started working for three days a week after coming off 18 months maternity leave, so we fortunately have some income, but we pretty much burnt through our savings over the past 18 months so … hopefully I will find something soon. My industry is starting to be pretty badly affected by the financial uncertainty in Europe and elsewhere, but I’m sure something will come up. Circumstances may keep me away from Paizo more than normal though – not sure yet. Apologies in advance for any upcoming delays or slow downs. Please act for my character where required, or forgive slow GM updates as the case may be.

Anyway, this post is not meant to air my misery or garner sympathy, it is to express wonderment and heartfelt thanks to this fantastic community. Some far too generous person or persons who chose to stay anonymous have sent me a likewise far too generous gift certificate to help me keep up my AP subscription during this time. I can’t know for certain, but I suspect the person (or persons) is either a FAWTLy and / or in one of my pbp games. If you were behind this, thankyou so much, it is truly fantastic of you.

Cheers,
Luke

Luke, I haven't been able to read the FAWTL thread for a while so this is the first I've heard about the bad news. I'm very sorry to hear about it.

Best of luck on your job search, anything you need to help you through this tough time, just ask.


Best of luck job hunting, Luke. Common practice here, where the job marked is just awful, is to spam out resumes for everything under the sun that's even slightly related to what you do. I'll be on the job-hunting boat with you soon and am not looking forward to it. Good luck!

Thanks guys, and good luck to you too Treppa. Yeah, I have been looking outside my immediate field, a career change may not be such a terrible thing right now.

Liberty's Edge Contributor, RPG Superstar 2012

Good luck with your respective job searches, Mothman and Treppa!


Sorry I've been silent a few days. I've had a couple of late nights at work. Will catch up hopefully tonight or Friday morning.


Sorry again for the sparse posting. A combination of working very late all week and writers block has not been good. However, my hours should return to normal for the next two weeks. Also, I have worked out some kinks in my story which were holding me up. The action should pick up now. Thanks for your patience.

I'm liking the scenario thus far, Tordek!


Me too! Flavia feels like James Bond - you know, that spy from Taldor?

Thanks for the encouragement.

Thanks for running this PbP for us, Tordek!

Hey all, many apologies for my unexpected absence. This whole job hunting thing is tedious and depressing, and I’ve found myself getting easily distracted from it. At the beginning of last week I decided to buckle down, promised myself that I would not log on to Paizo until I had sent out some letters, made some job applications and finished up my portfolio … well, what I had estimated I would get done in about two days stretched out to more than a week.

Anyway, I’m back now and will try to catch up soon. Apologies for any inconvenience.

Shadow Lodge

Male Husband/10 Dad/10 Gamer/5 RPGer/2

No problem. I figured the absence was job hunting related. That has to take precedence. Welcome back.

Hey all. I am currently sitting in the Dallas - Ft. Worth Airport waiting for a flight to St. Louis and then on to lovely Quincy, IL for some training. The training has an intense schedule over the next 3 days so my ability to post will be very limited. Go ahead and continue to post, and I will try to make at least one post each day to resolve your actions.

As an aside, I am also running this same campaign for my wife, and two of my sons. We restarted again yesterday and they are about one day ahead of you (in game time).


So did they come up with elaborate schemes to lure out the bad guys, only to split the party? :D

Shadow Lodge

Male Husband/10 Dad/10 Gamer/5 RPGer/2

LOL - Their scheme was not quite so elaborate, but they went ahead and split the part two and one anyway. I just seem to have that effect on my parties. Heh Heh Heh!

Shadow Lodge

Male Husband/10 Dad/10 Gamer/5 RPGer/2

Traveling back from Quincy now. Currently sitting at the DFW airport. It will be a few days until I catch up. Thanks for your patience.


Are everyone's life crises under control yet? :(

Shadow Lodge

Male Husband/10 Dad/10 Gamer/5 RPGer/2

I'll be ready to restart tonight (6/7/12).

Shadow Lodge

Also, still need some perception rolls from a few people.


Mothy hasn't been on since May 22. Haven't heard how things are going for him. :/

Liberty's Edge Contributor, RPG Superstar 2012

I might be unavailable through Monday, with my son's graduation tomorrow and college visit Sunday/Monday. I'll try to post, though.

I know - it has me worried, too. I'm just being patient on the Ravenloft game, because he's been such a great player to have, and I have my fingers crossed he comes around regularly again. I know he's got a lot going on, and has earned some patience :)


He has. I'm more worried than anything. He's not on FB, is he? If I recall, he was a FB holdout.

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

He is indeed an FB holdout.


No email, either, not in his profile.

Looks like Taig missed his Spot check to make a Perception roll.

Liberty's Edge Contributor, RPG Superstar 2012

Perception roll: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (11) - 1 = 10

Pretty much. :)

Decisions, Decisions, Decisions muwahahahahaha!


:P

Male Husband/10 Dad/10 Gamer/5 RPGer/2

How many splits of a party does it take to get to a single PC by him/herself? A question as big as how many licks does it takes to get the tootsie roll in center of Tootsie Pop. The owl says three!


Tha-ree-HEEE!

You're enjoying this way too much, TR. I can hear the Evil GM Chuckle (TM) from here.

Ha. We seem predisposed to splitting up...

On a separate note, while I built this character as a healer, it's nice that he can do fun things like follow tracks.

Yes - Savendir has been putting all of his skills to good use. I'm glad he is not stuck in just one role.

As an aside: I have followed your lead and have placed all of my NPCs encountered so far onto the front page for everyone's reference. Great idea.


Yet another groupsplit! Maybe we can get the pmg to make multiple gameplay threads so we don't have to spoiler everything. ;)

EDIT: The pmg did not seem enthused about this concept.

I'm curious. Did this come up in chat or a forum post?


I mentioned it in chat and got googly eyes. o.O

Liberty's Edge Contributor, RPG Superstar 2012

"probalby?" Where were you autocorrect; where were you?

Edit: You were kind enough to autocorrect "were" to "we're", natch.


I completely omitted the word 'asleep' and the spellchecker missed it. Stupid thing!


Oops.

Liberty's Edge Contributor, RPG Superstar 2012

We get to have all the fun! :)


Go Team Rogue!

Hmph. The temple of Pharasma is a downright sleepy place in comparison.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

'Fran'? My laugh should kill them... or draw aggro.


I sent a fb message to Flash (Matsumoto) to see if he is going to continue. It looks like mothman is still having computer problems since I haven't seen him online. Hope his job search is going well. I will GMPC his character for awhile until he can return.
