That's never fun. I hope the new people work out.
We're all gonna die ...

Okay, so I PM'ed Xabulba again (on two different aliases with recent action) and I've gotten no response.
Since my latest message, he's posted 4 times on other games.
I thought we were doing pretty well on RP'ing, but I guess he got bored with us. I don't get how you can go through weeks of character selection only to wander away without a word right as it's getting interesting, but remember that this game started as a reboot of a SF game he abandoned long ago.
Sorry, folks, but I think it's over.
I'm choosing to believe that our encounter with the forest creatures ended in a pitched battle which we barely survived, but led us to an ancient temple with a working alien FTL spaceship. We collectively receive every prize known to intelligent life and retire, obscenely wealthy and popular.
And level up.
Cheers, folks. Better luck next time.
Lol, I'm glad I spent time trying to learn Star Frontiers. While he may have had the best intentions, people sometimes try to spread themselves too thin and don't accept their time and effort limitations.

Yeah, I understand that. PbP is a strange animal, and it requires extraordinary patience. What overloads my blaster is when a GM just walks away without a word, all the while posting multiple times a day on his other games.
At least have the decency to spend 30 seconds posting "Sorry, guys, but I can't continue because..." and close out the campaign. No respect if you can't even arse yourself that much for a campaign that you created.
Agreed. It would be different if he completely disappeared, but to still be running another game, it's common courtesy to let us know he's not continuing with this game. Unfortunately, there seems to be a lack of that in the world today.
