OOC/ Vacation Thread
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
A bit of quick advice while I'm sitting in a meeting: games get stagnant when they aren't regularly updated. Set a schedule and stick to it instead of waiting for everyone to post.
My 2¢.

Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
Thanks, Zhym. I always appreciate your advice and have updated my post with an edit to reflect this.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
No problem. I try to post regularly during the week. Not so good on weekends.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
I am going to visit one of my brothers for Thanksgiving. No computer so will be out of touch until the end of next week. Feel free to NPC me.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
Thanks for the heads up. Like GreyWolfVT said in the other game, things will probably slow down for a lot of people during the holiday week(s). I expect the pace of the game will pick up either early Dec, or early Jan, depending on people's schedules.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
How far into the forest are we? I don't have a good mental image of the map, and with a forest fire on the way that suddenly seems like vital information to have.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
The group isn't that far in. You've just left the hilly plains behind and started going into the forest. A campsite resting area was found on the road you've been following. The road through the forest was a faster route to Iron Glade, but if you choose to backtrack to the plains and skirt around the flames, it will add on a day of travel, roughly.
Leaving the forest can be done within minutes, figuring out what caused the fire is a different story.

Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
I'm back from my Thanksgiving break and will be ready to post more frequently now. I just need an action from Eric and Akabel and then I can get this combat sequence started.
Note:
I will try to keep the pace for combat regular in that I will only wait 2-3 days for a response from someone. If they don't post by then I will move the action forward and just perform a basic attack/defense maneuver in their place, or retreat if the situation calls for it.
If this does not work for you guys, let me know now before I start doing it. We can work something out.

Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
I sent a PM out to wolfpack and Nuke66. If they don't respond by tomorrow morning, I will npc them to move things forward.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
I had a really rough day today and I am not up to posting the combat update tonight. I will fit it in sometime tomorrow for sure. Sorry for the delay.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
No problem. Take your time.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
I will wait until tomorrow afternoon. If no word comes from wolfpack, in regards to Akabel's next actions, I will progress the combat forward and npc his character again.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
I have an advert out calling for another player to pick up wolfpack's character (with his permission having been given over PM), or to join in with a new one.
If you guys know anyone who would be interested in joining this game, feel free to let them know that a spot or two is open now.

Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
Was Elethil able to get both attacks in on two different dogs, or did it take all that damage to kill one of them?
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
So he's currently in melee with one of the dogs?
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
Yes. Based off of the current battle map, he is confronting Hellhound 2. I picked randomly since you did not specify your target.
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
Normally I'd be worried about the sluggish post rate, especially since I said I would try to be a bit more regular on my end, but since its the holiday weeks, I guess it can't be helped.
Here is to hoping that all of your holiday celebrations are good ones. If I don't hear from you guys before then, may you also have a Happy New Year!

Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
Same to you!
Re: OOC/ Vacation Thread
I'm back from the winter holidays and I would like to start up the game again. The only problem I have is the character vacancy. Akabel's player had to bow out and the person I was going to have take his place also bowed out as well. My advertising/recruiting skills are not as they once were. If you want another person to play as Akabel, the group cleric, I will probably need some help in securing another person interested in this sort of game.
For the time being I will npc him, but on that note, if the pace remains sluggish throughout the rest of the game, I may cut it short and just keep this game a single adventure. A full group of active people would be great for the kind of plot I have laid out for you all, but if only 3 or 4 of you will post every once and a while, interest will wane I think and it will not progress quickly enough to keep everyone's attention.
