I think I'm just growing old and cantankerous. Youth nowadays! They sign up for games and then don't show up, or leave halfway through!
But yes, I've seen rates go down across the board. Got me into a bit of a fix for PbP gameday, as I'm starting games while I still have to finish some games that are running way late.
Yeah that sucks - I was worried a couple of mine would drag across... it got too close for comfort :P
Stats nerd that I am, I created a table for the time it took us to complete the YSK games (excluding the 6-98 run still ongoing)
It's here <-fixed
Admittedly, the data is distorted a bit by my summer holidays, which took place around the end of the season.
Linkage busted :p
COuld be the past month has been Back to School - college and younger. That throws everything off...
I have to plead guilty. I have a lot of work currently, and family time doesn't help either. I hope to be able to improve things on my end!
late summer early fall has always been a time of distractions.
You could add the number of post/day to the graph, but then you would need to account for group size too so average post per day per player. If the post are keeping constant then maybe it's the modules taking more time to complete?
Away started early...
Back Sunday afternoon my time :)
Back - just catching up on stuff now :)
Chronicles for 698 are up! (link)
Everyone should have a boon related to the character he played - let me know if I got the wrong one, or if something else is wrong. I've assigned Shifty's chronicle to Pitbull for now, but it is easy for me to change.
Are we close enough to be able to finish 7-02 before 6-97 starts? I'm hoping to use Marra in 6-97.
That special only starts Nov 5th, so any games that we're currently running will have long finished by then.
Oh my bad I was thinking it was starting in a week. Forgot we still had October to go though.
Congrats on getting a name mention in the email Kludde! Mammoths in 9 days, that is huge :)
Should I be worried we haven't day job rolled for Lines or Midnight? :p
Uh, no. I wanted to ask you, but then all this stuff happened.
Can you all please roll day jobs for Lines and Midnight?
Please state the usual

We're almost done with the two :)
LOL ok I thought we had more encounters due or something and was starting to worry :p

I've also put up the gameplay thread for School Of Spirits (1-5). I'll be running this for PbP Gameday IV. On the first page of the handout you'll find a little list where you can put down your PFS# and other stuff (including day job roll, which you can now make at the start). Please fill that in, it's easy for me when reporting :)

Also: regarding Quest for perfection: I am a bit stretched right now, and we might have to catch up a bit with all the games that are running long. I think the next couple of games will all just be the S7 ones - once that quiets down, I'll run QfP on the side. My best estimate is: 'not before the end of Gameday' :-S
No worries!! I'm just glad you're still running all of the games! =)
I've been updating the signup/management list a bit, so feel free to put your characters down. I think I'll be starting the 706-706-710(?) trilogy once we finish 702, and start 704 once we've finished 703.
No worries for QfP. I understand perfectly well what your situation must be right now.
GM just a quick one - 701 was Mumblypeg, not Scarlet :) Can you correct when you have a spare moment? :p
Scarlet is now 5, so will check out those tiers and upcoming adventures and fill the character roster accordingly.
That should have been Mumbly, of course. The chronicle for Scarlet, along with the other 702s is up as well now, same place.
Thanks :)
...and I've set up a gameplay thread for 706, which is not part of a trilogy, but one half of a two-parter (with 7-08). Both are tier 3-7. Be careful who you sign up with, as the timing will likely overlap with 6-97.

Do you think we'll be finished with "School of Spirits" when we start QfP? The character I wanted to play QfP with will be used for School of Spirits because I have no other character in tier available at the moment.
I noticed that #7–07: Trouble in Tamran has some sort of tie in with #6–98: Serpents Rise in the description.
Hmm as I am trying to stay away form spoilers - what is the trilogy and what levels?
The double seems 5-9.
Scarlet is an odd character.
I noted that Scarlet still had Arcane Strike which was allowed when SLA's were acceptable for qualification to that Feat. It clicked during the adventure that she was no longer eligible as the rules had changed - hence she wasn't using it during the combats.
So now I am getting a refunded feat.
My intent for Scarlet is to use that Feat (and the Level 5 Feat) to get a Familiar. A Brownie. As that seemed to be an interesting choice for the wandering Sczarni thieves guild (long live Gauril!) catburglar type who often masquerades as a circus performer = what a a great little offsider and even more believeable as a wandering carnival act. I just read the sheet about getting an Embeth Hound with CLIMBING and such! So now she has a legit performing animal the Brownie can ride around on.
Circus complete!
Scarlet the catwoman acrobat, juggler, and magician.
Tinks the incredible shrunken woman,
AND
Sparky the Wonderdog!
The trilogy is actually a two-parter and is tier 3-7.
^^this
The next few games are:
Low Table: 7-05 (1-5) then 7-07 (1-5)
Mid Table: 7-06 and 7-08 -> Two-parter, tier 3-7
High Table: 7-04 -> Tier 7-11 (will start once 7-03 is finished)
QfP will definitely only start after School of Spirits.
We're mustering for the following tables (bold means I need you to dot in)
Karrion and Tiaburn: who of you will be playing in 7-05, 7-06/08 and - once we start - in 7-04?
----
7-05 School of Spirits (1-5)
----
Hikage (Lithrac)
Bones (Glenn)
Vague Henri (Rhanloi)
??? (Pedwiddle)
??? (Karrion/Tiaburn) <--- Karrion or Tiaburn?
??? (Nik)
----
----
7-06 and 7-08 To judge a Soul (3-7)
----
Skarn (Lithrac)
Mogall (Glenn)
Grim (Rhanloi)
Anaristiel (Pedwiddle)
??? (Karrion/Tiaburn) <--- Karrion or Tiaburn?
Pitbull (Nik)
----
I was tossing up throwing Scarlet straight over into School, but notice we have a level 1/3/4 - is a 5 going to upset that applecart?
I'm thinking it might work out better to swap Bones and Cykle, if the party levels continue to trend low and high.
@Pedwiddle: sure, I've put it up in the chronicle folder
I'll bring the now-level-4 Zlata to 7-06/08 if low-tier is alright, and @Tiaburn can take 7-05?
Sounds good. I can't wait for the confusion Zlata and Pitbull are going to cause ;-)
----
I've just kicked of 7-06, and I'm hoping to start 7-05 as soon as possible. Tiaburn: I know you've been busy. Do you want to play this one, or would you rather pass?
I'll leave it up to you all to decide whether you want to play high or low tier. It'd be nicest if levels weren't too dispersed.
OK Pitbull is in 7-06.
What is the level range we need to be within for 6-97?
Are we 3-7 or 5-9?
Reason being is that I have a lowbie shortage...!
Mumbly 2 Oracle
Frost 2 Pally (stuck in a scenario that is in hiatus)
Scarlet 5 Roguish
Pitbull 6 Rangebarian
Percy 8 Witch
Takahiro 8 Palleric
Grim 8 Barbarian
Svetlana 8 Hellknight
Blackjack 9(in about 5 mins) Steel falcon
Monty 10 Cavrogue
I went ahead and swapped Bones and Cykle in 7-05
