The Con penalty lasts only as long as the alcohols effects in your stomach, so just for the night. Or that is how I am ruling it as otherwise it is too debilitating. Two days in one speeds up what will otherwise be a horribly slow process.
I will apply any bonuses to your influence when I roll your Rum checks. I can start rolling fortitude for everyone but then not everyone drinks the Rum, so it has problems too.
It has worked with the other two groups so I know it workd, you just have to choose what you want to do. If you can't do it I will tell you and you can change it, I'm not asking you to be locked in 100% right now.
It will definitely keep going. And as for the slow part, I recently made a decision to speed up the game earlier this week. There is a problem with the start of Skulls, it is massively slow, so I am gonna fix that. Once this combat is ended, more things will happen at a faster pace.
Thanks Amara. I appreciate the vote of confidence. :)

The problem is, if this battle goes for 4 more rounds at the current rate of posting, this combat won't end until the start of August.
To save a bit of time, I came here to point out that Cuff's already acted this round (here)...almost 2 weeks ago. IMHO, that's way too long for a round of combat against a basic monster like (dire) rats.
We ALL--GM and players alike--need to rededicate ourselves to this game or it's (pardon the pun) dead in the water.
I'll second Amara's comment above with one caveat--the game's slow points shouldn't come in combat. Everyone knows a fight's going on, and everyone should have a general idea when their turn's due to come up.
I'm still here, I still want to play. But I won't lie--I'm getting frustrated by the pace (or lack thereof).

I get that you are getting frustrated and believe me, so am I. But you have to look at it from my point of view. At the current point you are now at (you are less than half an in game day behind team two and a day behind team one) your gameplay has 4 pages, some 192 posts. At the point you are at team one had 7-8 pages of posts and team two had 10-11. You guys just don't seem interested in the game. The other teams are exploring, are trying to meet NPCs and form bonds. Mostly this game is me getting you to react to things, which isn't how a game should be. I am all up for keeping this game on board, and increasing the pace, but seriously it is on you guys too. You don't just react, you need to interact. With eachother, with your surroundings, with NPCs. Make it a story, not just a loose collection of encounters.
And forgive me for not replying faster, Tuesday was my Fiances Graduation and Wednesday was my IRL 5E game.

Sorry for the snarkiness in my previous post.

I was going to point out that we need to finish the rat encounter before we can build on the story aspect. I see you've taken action toward this already. This is promising. :)

Congrats to your fiance for graduating.
As for RP, Cadj being paranoid, he has an hard time trusting anyone on the ship so far, but will have to start relationship if he wants to get his treasured spellbook back. ^^.

I sent Cuff a private message. Perhaps it will ping his email. He doesn't appear to have logged in to Paizo in a while.
Cuff messaged me:
"I'm not going to be able to continue a frequent enough posting rgimend that I would be able to feel comfortable staying. Frankly I'm amazed that I still even had a choice. Tell everyone I'm sorry and I hope later on I might see them in another campaign in another time."
Hmm.
I think one of us could do a decent Cuff imitation. "Rat die! Captain said no dying, except rats!"
Alright my lovelies, so it is the weekend and I am going to be away in the woods with no internet, surrounded by stoned ass hippies and EDM music.
Anyway, I might be home tomorrow or it might be Sunday, not sure yet. I'll be back though, don't you worry bout that.
Continue the role playing though, this is great stuff. I like that you guys are actively pooling your abilities being "Okay this is what I got!", very cool.
You can openly bear weapons yes. And the penalties for stealing vary on what you steal. Steal from Grok you will get keelhauled. Steel from the Armoury and you get whipped bloody for the first offense and if you do it again THEN you get keelhauled.
Sorry if my game has been lacking. been working since last week, over a long weekend. and now it seems i may work till saturday. so im very tired. le sigh
So Britain is no longer a part of Europe... if you are a non national living in Britain then you have my condolences lads and lasses. Take heart that Ireland will always accept you. Genuinely gutted

Just a quick note: I'll be without an internet connection for the next 2-1/2 days, though there's a slight chance I might be able to pop on for a quick post during that period. I'll be back on Tuesday.
