I'm certain i have no idea what is being referenced.

I have never been a Wiz on the whole "Calculating CR", but one of my friends once explained it to me like this:
You have your regular group on 4 people: Group level = Challenge Rating. (Base CR)
For every 1 person joining the group, add +1 to the Base CR for a normal encounter.
If it is a Hard encounter, +2 after the "Base CR".
And if it is a Boss fight, then it is a +3 to the "Base CR"
I don't know if that is the way DM works it out, but that would mean that the CR for this encounter can range from 9-12 CR

For a 4 player group you'd take the average party level and that is a 'normal' CR encounter. So 4 level 4's would be a CR 4 encounter as the typical fight.
With 5+ players you are supposed to add one to that (though personally with 8 people I'd add 2 or 3 to that). That puts us up to CR 7 for a 'normal' encounter. For a hard encounter you add another +2, or for an epic encounter another +3. So we are possibly looking at up to a CR 10 encounter here.
If that's one monster we get advantage in action economy - only problem is a CR 10 monster is likely to one shot anyone it attacks (depends on the creature though). And in a numbers fight, we are going to have a LOT of things running around the map to deal with.

The issue with a single CR 10 monster is the AC. Good luck hitting them at all if they have 6 more hit die than any one of us...We'd be totally reliant on magic.

Well, if it is a magical enemy even the touch is stupid as all kind of hell...
So in a fight like that you need wizards/sorcerers to dispel magic.

I've had a minor family emergency pop up. Nothing huge, but I won't be around until Friday. Maybe late Thursday if I'm lucky. Feel free to bot me as needed!

So... I think we are doing pretty swell, or is it just me?

We're wolf killing machines. I've also determined that getting into melee with you would be quite hazardous to my health.

Well crap, for some reason I haven't gotten an update notification for gameplay since this post... Sorry.. Uh, how many wolves are left?

Last I checked, 2 by the bear and possibly one by Garroth... if his hit didn't kill it.

So... are you going to answer any time soon Payet?

Is there traps on that front door or not? Because if there is a trap I would like to push Victor through first and if not then I would like to go first...
On second thought maybe I should push Garroth through if it is trapped, he might be able to take it.

... I really really really dislike that one... My usual GM has this sentence...
Me: *Rolls dice* "I search for traps"
GM: "According to you, there are no traps"
Me: *Giving the stink-eye to him.* "Then I move forward* *Proceed to fall down into pit trap.*

Are you posed dramatically at a window, gazing out and singing about the companions you miss so much?

Yes, the musical montage of us pacing out on dirt woods, you laughing at a poison dart that hit me and me setting fire to you...
I do wonder what music you would put on that.

Into the woods I have to go!
My fellow party is much too slow.
The good guys are helping to take me away
from this terrible place in the woods, oh yay!
A vampire brought me to his dark tower,
I couldn't resist, I hadn't the power.
The group at the door just came in,
here's to hoping they win!
The way is clear!
The hallway's full of dust!
There is no beer!
But there is plenty of must!
Into the woods I hope I go!
I hope they bring this vampire low.
Get back to the City and rule some more.
Get back in my role as the town's high...priestess!
Into the Woods!

The camera fades over to Victor as he slowly removes his porcelain mask, his eyeless holes stares at Crystal's window, taking on an almost longing appearance.
We do not move quickly, for we are the undead.
To rescue the princess we have to commit endless measures of bloodshed.
I move with only the barest of my bone.
Leaving my zombies in the back, only capable of quipping a moan.
We move to ensure our use of the throne!
Leaving the obstacles to be blown!
The mask is quickly placed back unto Victor's "face" and two zombies animates behind him. They draw two microphones from their rotting clothing and begins beatboxing.
Yo, yo! DJ Skelly representing!
Yo, check it. Uh. Uh yeah, here we go.
They call me DJ Phylactery, scourge of destiny. Master of arcane epiphany, who you fools think you are, trying to bust a cap in me? I am rolling through this castle, looking to plunder and recover the sweetest treasure this unlife could cover. I have got so many minions that I am drowning in kodbold shit and my greatest weapon is my wit.
So check it vampire, we know you are just looking to fulfill your desire, but we will sink you to the button of the floor as if you were a damned anchor!
