This is a great game, but perhaps more better suited for tabletop than PbP. It has numerous subplots, lots of names to remember and an indirect path. PbP already takes so long, it can be hard to keep it all straight in your head. I do like this sort of game, though, and I have several pages of notes on this game already. The pace of level advance is good, though slow for many.
Don't be too hard on yourself, Silentspace. You've put together a great campaign and haven't really missed much time.
