Game Master Ietsuna

rule of 2 is standard...as for boting...for this character The GM may bot anytime he/she wants to move play forward : Even if I've already posted once that day. This includes using expendable resources..
As for 1-3 post a day...At most you'll only get up to 2 a day...from me, but I've no problem you boting me to move things along.

GM- Thanks for moving Lumi. I know that there is a fair bit of variance in how people want to run ACs. I try to be as fair (and as non-metagamed) as I can be with my AC's, but I will be using Lumi a lot. Always feel free to take her over and run her how you believe she would act. I'll try my best in my post to make it clear when I am expecting you to act on her behalf.

With my animal companions (and mounts, etc.) I pretty much let Handle Animal tell me if I have control or the GM has control. If I make the Handle Animal check--or it's an action that doesn't require it--I control the animal. If not, the animal does nothing (or the GM could direct another action).

That's a great rule. I am going to steal it!

Sounds good.

@ GM letsuna – You are on deck for the Mist quest. As you may have gathered, the Mausoleum quest has pretty much concluded. I’d expect some PC reaction/roleplaying and, provided players are interested, playing out some of the consequences to the evening’s events contemplated by the scenario. I'm happy to have another day or two to finalize my gnome oracle.

@ All – If anyone would like me to, I’d be happy to post my thoughts on the scenario, including my mistakes, my concerns/challenges, and my suggestions on ways to run the scenario better in the future. I could post those thoughts here, in a newly-created Discussion thread, or another forum. I realize that this wasn't billed as "GM School", but I think it could be beneficial. At least for me, as this is my first time running Pathfinder via PbP (Prior to this, I have only completed a single SFS scenario via PbP and am running two other SFS scenarios). I am finding it very different from face-to-face GMing. I am sure I could benefit from your thoughts/criticism/suggestions on this quest and, perhaps, if I discuss my challenges and mistakes, you will be better able to avoid them. Let me know!

I would really appreciate it. I have never GMed a pbp either, and so I am really hoping to use this as my trial by fire and a learning experience to see a lot of other styles and see behind the GM screen. My goal would be to fee comfortable enough after this to start listing games for general consumption.

I would vote that we create a discussion thread and do it there. I would love to hear both from the GM running each and the players (as players and as established gms)

Yeah, I am ready to go. I'll give it a day or 2 for any fall out then start. I will also open up the discussion thread. I didn't realize I hadn't done it yet.
