It seems to be better for me, but it was logging me out constantly. I'm here though!
It has been slow lately, but even with my wife's surgery I would never call this a burden. A very pleasant distraction from laundry and dishes, all the things being a mostly single parent hates that never ends. :)
I don't want it to end, but ultimately this is your game sir. If you are not having fun anymore then that should always be the deciding factor. You've done a great job Giuseppe, no matter how we decide.
It's a sad conclusion, Giuseppe, but I was having trouble keeping up and feeling like I'm 'failing' to give this game the energy it deserves. My situation doesn't seem like it will change in the near future, so it would stay like this for a while, for me at least. I don't think the game deserves to sputter out like that, so I stand by Giuseppe's decision. It is saddening, but I don't see any good alternative. Sorry...
Ah well, I guess that is it then. I understand completely though, real life gets us all in the end. Thank you all for excepting me midway through. You are all great writers, made me laugh out loud on several occasions, made me smile a thousand times more.
:( As a note this past week has been dead for every game I'm involved in, but I get there are more extenuating factors with this game. If it ends here, it's been a fantastic ride everyone and a pleasure to play with you.

Hey everyone, I'm so sorry for disappearing for so long. I've been recovering from an illness and I was unable to post.
I'm really sad to see this game go. As Giuseppe says, we've invested quite a lot into it and it's been one of my favorite Pathfinder games to date, PbP or face to face.
Giuseppe, you've been a masterful PbP GM, thank you for your devotion, organization, and obvious care you've put into this game.
Fellow players, it's been lovely playing with you. Catina, it's been a joy sticking with it from the beginning with you, and Varius and Petals, I'm glad you could jump in so smoothly and that our group worked together so well.
Hopefully this is just a hiatus rather than goodbye. If the former, I look forward to us continuing; if the latter, then I look forward to playing with you all in other PbP's some time. <3
Oof, I hope you're doing okay now! :(
That said, I'll make a pitch to keep the game alive. APs on these baords are multi-year commitments and it is an inevitability that we'll hit dead patches. I've been running 3-5 games for the last four years and have hit more than a few roadblocks I (mostly) overcame through sheer bloody-mindedess.
Playing in your game is a privilege Giuseppe - you put so much care and craft into your games it's a real joy to see what's awaiting me the next day. You're the best GM I've ever dealt with. This group is also astonishingly good and I'm loathe to see the game close down. If we have to take a break, even for months, I'm game for that rather than to call it a day.
I'm very sad myself guys, the idea was born after a chat with Iff (Catina). I believe the game was agonizing, and we only used it mercy not to ruin it when three, perhaps four out of five people involved have clearly no time for the game anymore...So sorry to see this go this way, I still can't accept the idea not to play with you anymore after what...Two full years? More?
Very glad you are doing better Faustinia!
Giuseppe, you've managed to keep a game moving faster than any other I've been through. All the while making it live and breathe. It has been lovely.
If you ever want to bring it back (with Catina, when her real life settles, cause without our tielfling it would not be the same)... well I agree with Varius, I'd be more than happy to start up again.
bye, bye. Hopefully only for now.
You know where I am if you ever need a player or if the game gets going again. Take care everyone, it's been a pleasure. :)
