Sorry, I've had a really busy PBP week guys. I'm starting up a new game and there's a lot going on with that and I'm also trying to get into another game with a GM I really like that's got a very post-intensive RP recruitment element. I should be back into swing sometime this next week.

'sall good. So far, we've somehow kept up a nice casual posting rate that's still maintaining consistency. This is rare, and awesome.


I believe I've stated this before, but for me this is kind of my fun "anything goes" game. It's not that I don't plan on keeping it going, but I'm much less worried about 1/day posting like I am in some of my other games. I have a brutal next couple days at work, because we're switching from normal classes to summer camp schedule and I've got a lot of extra work dealing with that. After that is over, I should be able to sort through and advance this.

No worries. Like I said, I mostly prefer it when posting rates are fairly casual, so long as we manage to maintain player interest - which is a heck of a balancing act, I'll grant you, but it's a good one when you can pull it off.

I pretty much never give up on games unless the GM sucks.


Today is my last day of crazy at work, and then I am only working 20 hours a week for the rest of the summer. Woohoo! I should be back up to normal posting rates soon.


BUNKEN - You haven't posted in 21 days. I'm assuming you're no longer playing. I will be removing Bunken from play soon if I don't hear something from you.

Yar! It's true. I've been slacking real hard on most of my games since I started working. I've been enjoying the game here a lot, but 21 days is just absolutely dreadful.

So I think I will bow out. Maybe Bunken decides this life is too much for him, or the alcohol is just too strong in this world and he needs to
detox somewhere. Or drink himself to death.

It's been fun and thanks for being brave enough to run such a crazy, slap-happy game here, Jelani! And also thanks for introducing me to the Barbarians game rules. Best of luck to all of you.


Thanks for the reply man. Good to know where you stand. It was nice playing with you :) Good luck in future endeavors.

Thanks for chiming in to let us know the story, Bunken. Sorry to see you go, but it happens. Go forth, game and be merry.

In other news, Dorin isn't good at dropping an idea. Smash!

More or less. But Dorin's used to it.

It's driving Lulu crazy!

Heh.


I'm focusing on VoV's Wrath of the Righteous recruitment at the moment guys, which I see two of you have also popped in on. Until I'm done with that I'm probably not gonna have the mental juice to write up the next bit for this.


Hyperactive Lazypants Bard 2

Hah- fair enough, that's what I spent pretty much all night playing with my idea for.

I'm in two of his games. They're really good. I don't know how he manages to run do many and keep the quality so consistently high.

That good huh?
If I wasn't in like 10 PbPs as it is I might have checked it out.


I typically find myself accumulating a bunch of games and then every few months finding about half of them are inferior so they either collapse or I quit. I mean, I'm also running four games right now. This is probably the lowest quality one though :P I'm making it all from scratch and it's my crazy idea relaxed game.

Still super fun. The story practically writes itself.

I like playing a character from the 21st century. Closest thing to myself I've ever played! Besides a game where I actually played myself, just enhanced by nanobots.

Oh, nanobots. Is there anything they can't do?


Appearance American Female Human | Defense 2 | Lifeblood 8/10 | Psychic Points 15/15 | Hero Points 4/5

I just checked the internet and it confirmed that nanobots can do everything.

There you go!


Still working on that app guys, but I should be done either today or tomorrow. Then I can get to writing up the details for the next part of this.

Still contemplating, Jelani? No rush, just making sure we're still on track.


Yarrr. I keep thinking about it and wanting to write it, and then I don't. I will try to get something going right now, no guarantees on the quality though.


Hyperactive Lazypants Bard 2

No worries. Just checkin'.


Chew on that.

Om nom nom.

I had the urge to post Dorin's reaction so far, but it's pretty much grit his teeth and keep rowing until somebody says different. Seemed like that didn't much contribute to the narrative.


Lulu said she'd post later, kinda hinges on her until you guys learn English.

Bah on your English! It is a puny language!


Guys, I'm having trouble seeing a longterm for this game. With only one character able to communicate, basically the only kind of encounters we can have are combat ones. I'm finding the combat in this system to be very one dimensional and uninteresting. It's either I overwhelm you guys or you spend a hero/magic/psionic point and win instantly.

This along with just general writer's block with how to go forward with the game has led me to decide to stop it. Thanks for taking part in my whacky idea. We reached 700some posts, which is more than most games do.

I've been itching for the kind of game that Doomed Hero and I both like. Something where the characters start out very weak/normal and have to overcome tough odds. So keep your eyes peeled for another casual style game from me popping up in the Recruitment threads. I'll probably run a modified module so that the issue of writer's block doesn't come up again and I can just follow the script. Thanks again for playing, I hope you all had fun. I'll mark the thread as inactive.

I had a lot of fun, thanks for running the game!

It was fun while it lasted, everyone! Thanks for running it, Jelani. See you guys around on the boards.

Aw, sadness. Well, thanks for the run, guys. I wonder how I'm going to write Dorin getting back from this nonsense in the next Hyboria game...


If anyone is still interested in playing in one of my games after I shut this down on you, here's a new recruitment I opened.
