Mothman's Adventures in Darkmoon Vale game

Game Master Mothman

I have decided to try to keep a campaign journal of the current RL campaign that I am playing in if anyone is interested in checking it out. So far I’ve covered the events of sessions 1 and 2 and we’re actually up to session 18 – we’ll see how long I’ll keep at it!

I’m going to be pretty busy for the rest of the week, posting may be limited.

I just wanted to apologize to all my games, especially the ones I'm running. I have been going through a bit of posting malaise, and don't want to burn out, or even worse quit. As such, I've just been trying to build up to posting. Just wanted to let you all know, I'm not gone, not leaving, just less than motivated at the moment. So, please bear with me. For my games, I expect to have a post up today.

No worries man, I know how it is.

Won't be able to post much for the next couple of days.

I'll be out of commission for most of next week as well, from Monday.

I'm terribly sorry. The malaise is a mix of my ability to post at work being more limited than before, and sharing a single computer at home. When I get the chance to post, all the updates I need to make begin to feel daunting. I truly intend to return to my previous level of posting.

I will be incommunicado in Yorkshire from the end of today until Sunday.

I'm out until the end of the week

Guys, between me still being busy and the website keep logging me out over the past week I;m still struggling to find an opportunity to post. Please bear with me.

It looks like it's the same for everyone.... It keeps going down overnight US time, so by the time they get around to fixing it, Europe have gone offline...

It will work itself out.

I'm under quite a lot of pressure to deliver at work for the next couple of weeks. Apologies for my absence - hopefully I should get through this by December.

Apologies for my absence – work, life, technical issues, end of year madness …

I’m still around, just snowed under. Hopefully between having ordered a new laptop battery and being on holidays from work from Thursday I will find an opportunity to post soon!

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Just to let you all know, I will be visiting the in-laws for the next couple of days and will likely be off-grid.

Guys, I have to apologise for letting my games slide for so long.

The last couple of months of 2017 were busy and stressful and I wasn’t finding much time to update. By the time I got a breather (over the past two to three weeks or so) I found I just needed a break, and updating my games seemed more like a chore than something enjoyable. Hopefully I’ll be in the right frame of mind (and have appropriate time) soon! Please bear with me.

Tis no problem.... These things happen to us all.

I totally understand, Mothman.

What they said - I'm only starting to check games after the holidays, myself. Take your time.

Just in case the hiatus ends before I return, I wanted to let you know I will be unavailable from Sunday 21 through Sunday 28. Feel free to bot Jasper as necessary.

See you at the end of the month!

Thanks for understanding guys. I've returned to work and continue to be busy (strangely the back-log of work didn't go away over the break); I'm going to try to get and keep the game going again, hopefully I'll be able to find the time to keep things chugging along, though my posting may be more limited than it was say in the first half of 2017.

That sounds good Mothers. Please don't put pressure on yourself for us! We are here for the ride, but we really aren't as important as the rest of your life ;)

Well, I'm the last one with a leg to stand on when it comes to complaining about the DM's absence. Hope you feel refreshed.

Welcome back, Mothman!

Welcome back!

Oh, and speaking of absences, I'm going to be trying to catch up in all my games in the next day or two. We had fun, but now it's time to try to get back to normal.

Welcome back to you too, PR.

I'll be traveling for a few days. Posting should return to normal Saturday.

Travelling again. Should have internet access, but if I am silent feel free to play Yodi so that the game doesn't slow down. Back Friday noon EST at latest.

Hi friends, it’s become painfully apparent (to everyone no doubt) that I’m not in a good position to be running pbp games at the moment; these days its virtually impossible for me to post from work, and usually when I’m at home the last thing I feel like doing is something that requires sitting in front of a screen and using my brain (or at least the ‘GM’ part of my brain).

Apologies for all the delays and false starts over the past several months – I really thought I would be able to get things off the ground, but t hasn’t panned out. Worse, its taking the enjoyment out of actually playing pbps, as I feel guilty about playing over GMing. Hopefully by putting GMing officially on the backburner I will be able to pick up the pace as a player.

I hope to get my games going again at some point when I have the time and energy to do so – I can’t promise when that will be. If people are around at that point and want to keep playing, that’s great, if not I would understand. In the meantime though, I’m going to put all the games I am GMing on indefinite hiatus.

Cheers, Luke.

It's ok, Mothman. I've hit that place myself. I'll see you in the other games. Hopefully I'll see all of you in other games.

Tom

I think it's the way things are at the moment. Chin up, old thing!

Totally understandable, I was there just a little bit ago.

Cheers! No worries, Mothman!

It’s happened to us all at some point Mothers, don’t beat yourself up about it. You’re doing the right thing.

No worries Moth!
