I set all the campaigns inactive. Some day I will truly try and resurrect them (using True Resurrection), but I don't want to keep dragging you all along thinking I can get my crap together and get things going now. So, some day, perhaps, I will surprise those who said they would love to rejoin in the future.

I am suspending the campaigns for now since I just can't get any free time.

Just as an FYI, I am mothballing this campaign for now. maybe someday it will come back again. Recruitment is thus closed.


I'll give it a day or so and them put all the various tables into cold freeze hibernation.


Every day I wake up saying that 'This will be the day that I get my PBP campaigns going again.' Every day I fail in that endeavor. It creates a lot of stress and anxiety. The idea for this campaign began several years ago while camping. It took another two years to bring it to life and about a year and a half ago, I started it here. I started strong, but it does take a lot of effort and work, which I was happy and able to put into it. However, for most, life doesn't stay the same. Changes at work and with other things in my life, have diminished the time I am able to devote to keeping this active. I kept telling myself that somehow I would be able to come back to it. But if I am honest, it would never amount to the same level. I might be able to sneak a post in here or there, but it wouldn't do it justice. It would never be the daily or multiple posts daily that I wished for.

To that end, I am suspending the campaign now officially. I am sure many of you already suspected this well before I could admit it. I would have like to run this for years, seeing everyone's build advance to epic and mythic levels along with crazy powered shenanigans, but reality dictates otherwise for me. Could I ever return to resurrect it? Maybe, but I guess most will have forgotten, and perhaps many have moved on already.

I apologize, but I hope that everyone had fun for while it lasted, this crazy experiment. I am sad that I had to leave everyone literally in mid-action. Most groups were in the heart of pitched battle or deep into unraveling mysteries.

I won't belabor the point, but wish you all well in the PBP adventures and RL adventures.

Peace


Happy New year all. Gonna try and revive things around here now. It might take me some time to review, but I *hope* to get something posted this week. Like for real....seriously..... I hope ... :(


Busy as hell still, was in training all last week, and leave in a day for Mexico for a week. Maybe after the first of the year I can get things hopping (yeah yeah right?)

Thought i had a break through a week or two ago, but didnt get it off the ground again.


Hey, I am still around, will be out of the country for a week or so over holidays. Hope everyone has a nice time. Maybe after the new year I can get my butt in gear. Time will tell I guess. I think the vacation will recharge me a little and hopefully I can squeeze in time once January hits.


bump


making active!


Ok, here I am. Lets do a roll call here and see who is left. I think this table was the most depopulated. Once I know who is still kicking, I can try to finish the fight somehow and move things ahead in a more stable manner.


As with other tables, I am checking in formally and hoping for a roll call. Once everyone has checked in (giving it a few days/week depending ), I will move ahead. If we are down some, I will devise a way to introduce new people.


Ok, who is still around here? I know we lost Grobly a while back. I hope we have enough to keep going here considering your progress. I will try to add players as needed although given your location it may be a smidge tricky.


.


Ok, I am trying to get this moving again, we had just started a combat. I am guessing it may take a day or so to see if everyone is still here, or who we lost due to my absence. Once I know, I will adjust things or figure out how to add another player magically somehow.


Ok, checking in, I know we are down one person for sure, just seeing if the rest of you are here and ready to move ahead. Would 'like' to get the combat going, perhaps even try to a round or two. It will still be slow, but I can't handle the complete standstill any more, so I want to get something done.


Ok, checking in here. It seems like everyone is still here, am I correct? I will get the combat running once you are all checked in and ready to move.


Ok, I will go through each table and figure out who is still around and make some adjustments depending on the status. Some tables are literally mid combat, some, we might move new characters into and I'll try my best to make it believable, but there may be some stretches in what makes sense to get things moving.


Oh, and regarding the tables, I will do a roll call at each table and give people some time to check in, after which I can determine what will happen. Combining does make sense, and we also have a few returning players able to join again. Also there are some new players waiting in the wings and so I will see how things shape up.


Excellent, I came here to post just the thing as I have been reading reddit posts about various errata and other content that is out. I need to catch up on some reading. In addition to what is posted above by Tanner, does anyone know any recent errata releases? ( I guess I can check the paizo page ). I will need to familiarize myself with the new stuff and see if its suitable ( not sure why it wouldn't be ) and then determine how it gets rolled into the campaign as usually people may want to make changes, in some cases drastic.


@Xanya, I think you had time for the MW transforms.

currently we are waiting on me to get the actual combat rolling. This epic fight will take a lot of work so its just been a matter of me getting some spare time to make it all come together. the chaos of real life is overwhelming. trying to put new flooring in the house, and paint, and deal with a million things, train for triathlons, prepare for holidays, vacations, weddings, birthdays, blah blah, all the usual stuff.


yeah I literally have half the round already typed up, I just have to get a stretch of time where I can concentrate and finish it off.


Beep!


bweep!


dooby doo..


dotting for trying to get rolling again soon.


Beep dot doot.


Beep :)


Hey crew! Trying to get back at this now. Several weekend weddings done and a few things out of the way. I am not in the clear yet, but I will see what I can do about getting the action rolling again. No promises, but at least there is some life here yet :)


just dotting so that this doesn't go dormant on me.


Hey crew, just checking in again to let you all know I'm still around. Things might be pretty brutal through the end of October. I will keep assessing things with the hope to resume full scale when able.

Thanks all for being patient.


I won't call it off. It will continue, as I am as interested as any to see the game forward, progress the various groups' storylines and see what sort of concepts people are building. Just a tough time currently. I sort of feel like I may have more time once the weather gets colder. If people are able to hang tight. I am looking to maybe try and get something in soon, even if its not a return to daily posting.


Hey all, yes I have been struggling with my own posting. I am still planning on getting things rolling. I know a few times I have posted saying I am ready to get back into gear, only to be set back again, so I won't make any promises about a timeline until I actually am able to post, but I am not going to abandon the campaign or anything and I will follow up with everyone who has expressed interest and created characters. Sorry that things have stalled to a halt, particularly when almost all tables are mid combat or mid something-big. If worse comes to worst, I will just take a day off work to be able to catch up.


Status update: Just checking in again, to whine and complain about how I am still not getting the time I need to make some solid posts. Every day i think it will be the day I get some spare time and then work explodes into crazy chaos mode, and evenings are basically right out due to home responsibilities.

I just wanted to let people know I am still around, still vested in running the campaign, and will find the time when I can. I realize each day that passes people will lose interest, and that I cannot help. I am working on it.


both goggh and rechau are returning, and will see about grabbing two new people. i may also just reduce it down a table, not sure.


no worries. its me that is still being lame and struggling to post more than a sentence of an update.


did you get to neuschwannstein?


fyi im still here too. trying to squeeze in time to write up a whole round of combat. I suck.


I'm here too, struggling as usual to try and get enough time to make a decent update that is more than a sentence. big battles like this take time to format :) I think once i get you guys through this i might have to focus on smaller things in order to keep things moving until I can devote as much time as I used to.


You also cannot be an aasimar.


yeah recruitment is still open. I'm trying to get the games updated, but life is getting in the way too much.


I will see what we have available and so forth. I have held off on current players doing a second character so far. I know I haven't addressed your question, some day I may get to it.


I'm trying to update the games today. I got one post in so far ( yay! ) and catching up on the other tables. Those waiting in the wings will be added when some of the tables have a lull in the action. Some are mid battle or in a location not conducive to adding new people.

Table 2 needs 1 person after its current fight.
Table 5 needs 1 person when it makes sense.
Table 7 needs several people, probably 2-3?
Table 4 may have lost 1 or 2, not quite sure yet.


Cool. I am looking to finish this fight off and then will reorg this table again. I am back so I need to check the map and review what has happened.


Back. I will get you guys moving back to Cliffort. Just catching up on posts and refreshing a bit and reviewing my notes.
