I am taking two overnight flights coming up, so while i might get some posts in from the airport and then again on my layover in london...no promises, so bot as needed
When I was trying to learn about PBP, I had just finished Harrowstone module in RL so I started lurking in Mug's Harrowstone thread before trying to get recruited. I've kept up with it along the way.....
I think I got very lucky with my choices of which threads to lurk and learn about, but before starting Mugs thread I really had no idea how this PBP thing was supposed to work. Once I figured out the 'co-writing' element it started making sense (at least, Im hoping Ive learned from it, Valdric is my first witch and this campaign was my first PBP).
Ive loved reading Kimberly..right up until the Rapunzel singing, then I really loved reading her. Believable, always 'in character', a successful experiment in my opinion. I was a little star-struck when she showed up here.........
Its been very easy to imagine that group of people around a table: you can see the rules-lawyer, hear the jokester, watch the metagaming..... much more like a real table than I ever expected. But for all that, a table of people that seem to get along: none of the sniping or obnoxiousness Ive seen in other threads as strangers try to play. I can imagine you all knowing each other and wanting to play together.
In fact, Danica mentioned Orange County NY which is where I live, so I plan on trying to make contact if I ever find free time for a real in-person game (my Carrion Crown is via skype).
I would say not worry about the spoilers You post actions and I do a round recap. and assume you are talking to each other about tactics during the course of the action as best you can.
I have some serious home issues this weekend will try to post what I can but family is priority right now. definately return on Monday or even Sunday night.
I will be at a business conference for the next few days....i have my phone but my time will be limited. I will try for 1x per day but feel free to 'bot me as needed.
Guys wanted to post this... for the past couple of days my home life basiclly turned to an emotional hell. I am only keeping up with a few games at the moment.
so up to you
we can call the game or go on Hiatus until I can strighten things out.
i agree. lets just take a break and if you decide you want to crank it back up in say a month, then great, if not just make it inactive and we all understand
