So, just wondering, but is anyone having fun with this? I'm setting some things up, and that's why I don't want to just skip it, but I feel like that ever since I took that last hiatus, things have really slowed down. I know at least part of that is people being busy, but I'm wondering if I'm killing my own game with something that just isn't enjoyable for anyone.
Hey I always have fun, just been busy and slow to post is all.
I'm good. I'm a little wary, honestly. I'm just waiting for the shoe to drop.
Like The Rising Pheonix, I’m loving the RP/character-development; I’m just doing too many things at once.
I've just been scatterbrained and under the pump. I'm not going anywhere, I'm just slow >.>
just an update post here.
I have been off-line for a couple of days. had pneumonia real bad. almost bed ridden.
fever finally broke today after almost 4 days over 101F (38.33C for our non-american friends)
still a little light headed from the medications to reduce the fluid in my right lung.
Ouch. I'm glad you're getting better!
I will be traveling for work for the next week and a half, my posting schedule will become spotty.
Yikes glad you're okay
Okay, I feel like we've only got two or three active posters not counting myself at the moment. I know that Ronnie's been having trouble, and Asuriel's player is away on business, but what about the rest of you? Do we need to take a break? Do I need to change something?
I want this game to keep going, but it feels like we've got no momentum, and things I was hoping to play out got skipped over because I needed to get the game moving else it was going to bog down more than it has. I can understand being busy, but I would love to keep things going at a reasonable pace. What can I do to achieve that? Do I need to focus more on crunchy posts? Do I need to cut the RP down? I'm at a loss for what to do.
I'm not blaming anyone. If anyone is to blame for this, it's me. I just want to get the game going on a good head of steam again.
I am working a lot but I try to keep up
My schedule is a mess, but I'm doing my best. I don't have cell service during the day every day anymore so I'm not continuously checking my games.
As for momentum, it's one of the trickiest things to maintain or acquire in games. I haven't really figured out out yet.
Same thing as Noro and Olives. Just really busy lately.
And it feels like Saroune hasn't had a lot to say or do in the previous scene.
I’m also busy, but paying attention. Indeed, I was waiting for Nuala to relate the tale of that cruel ‘prank’, so Pavanna could react in outrage and sympathy and bond with her over wanting to see the bullies involved brought to account.
I would have loved to do that, but that's something that she wasn't going to bring up on her own.
That said, glad to see you're still with us. :)
Apologies for my absence. I was at a brewing festival in Detroit. I'll catch up when I get back home this evening.

In case anyone heard about last night’s quake and was worried, I’m OK. It was a hell of a ride, but no damage was done where I am.
I’ve been having trouble trying to compose Pavanna’s response to the scene at the sawmill, but that’s about the limit of my current troubles.
It's cool. Glad to hear that you're okay!
I'm not going to be moving things on until tomorrow night, so that should be some time to get something composed.
I need to level with you guys. I've been debating on whether or not to keep this game going. The thing is, I don't want to, but at the same time, the game's limping along at two or three posts a week from me with a post from one or two of ya'll a week. I'm worried that the next combat is going to kill the game.
So, that said, I want to know if you guys can post three or four times a week? If not, I'll just go ahead and close this up.
I will increase
I can. :)
More apologies from me. I just quit a part of my job (a part that was just too much hassle for too little pay at really awkward hours), and trying to get my replacements properly trained has been painstaking and aggravating — especially since the boss only paid for a week(!!!) of training time, which just ain’t enough practice to get it right.
Hopefully the new bods will get it sorted in a week or two, because that’s about when Silly Season will kick into high gear.
Add that to difficulties with the tenant at my rental property, who is actively refusing to stay within the written terms of her lease, and, well....
That said, I hope to have both sorted out in the near future. Once I do, the increased free time should give me more room to focus on the game.
I can be better.
I'd be lying if I said I can commit to a higher amount. I am struggling to keep up with all of the games I'm in. The best I can say is I will do my best. If I'm slowing you down, you can put prissypants on hold until I can promise to be more active.
Okay, looks like we'll give this another shot.
To my fellow Americans, Happy Thanksgiving. To those not in the US, hope you've had a good Thursday. :)
Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy thanksgiving!
I hope your families are normal and you can avoid the uncle that tries to convince everybody that 9/11, Sandy Hook, and the Dallas police murders are all connected...
I have no-one like that in my family, and I am thankful for that every year.
Yeesh, that's gotta be rough. I've had a good Thanksgiving and am currently working on a campaign setting that I really hope people will like because I so want to throw some PCs in there and see how they do.
For the curious, you can find it here.
It is a work in progress, and I need to focus on the things that I want in there and work from there, but I think I've got enough for you folks to get the idea.
Olivius doesn't hear anything useful. He does gather a few drinks, however, so he counts that as a win for the day.
This made me laugh harder than it should have.
Any day you get free drinks or food is a good day. ;D
Okay people, we have a few leads to follow up on. Where do we want to go from here?
Just a heads up, I'm spinning up a sandbox game with some heavy Skyrim flavor. If you want to check it out, just mosey on over here and see if it's up your alley.
Merry Christmas! I hope all of you have had a wonderful time with your families. As my gift to you, pick an attribute (Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma) and get a permanent +2 bonus to it and get a +1 weapon or +1 armor as well. :)
If I could form hearts for eyes in a smilie with text I would.
Thanks, and Merry Christmas!
Would it instead be acceptable to raise two scores by 1? I would really love an extra language/skill point and to no longer have a wis penalty...
Sure. That is also cool.
Cool. Sheet updated. I found some errors and corrected them. Also, got a boost to power attack so my damage is starting to come into its own. Still deciding what I want as my magic weapon though....
Thanks Salsa...
What can I give you in return?
Updated +2 to Con and +1 to armor
Bloody Holiday Madness!
At least they’re over for another while. I’m trying to compose a post now, but it may take me a while yet.
Glad to see you're still around, even if the holiday madness took you over for a bit.
I'm going to be honest here and say that I'm finding this frustrating. Not in the least because I'm gearing up to run this AP for my home group, and trying really hard not to metagame. Is there anything relevant that we may be overlooking, GM?
Did anyone ever look around outside of the sawmill? Also, there's three other crime scenes to check out.
As a heads-up, the keyboard cover of my Surface has carked it. I'm relying on handwriting recognition, which is useless and cramps my hand, so I have to post from my (cracked) phone. As a result, I'll be spotty for a few days while I wait on a replacement.
Wow, that's some hardware issues there.
I have a surface that I never use. well actually it belongs to my company and not supposed to be for company use only.
Yeah, I've never had a whole lot of luck with tech. At least the replacement arrived today, so I can get back in the swing of things.
Just waiting to see if anyone else has anything to do here before I take the lead again.
Lead away.
Hi guys I am sorry I have been silent. I was having trouble with some motivation for Noro. I don't know why.
I am trying to get back into character so I need to apologize.
