Well, now that EN World's back up and the Memorial Day long weekend is over, anyway. But what's important is it looks like we're pretty much all back. And hopefully about to start another fight.
So soon?

Sorry about the disappearance. I have been busy, and will be busy for about two more weeks, but I will try to get in at least one post a day like I used to.

I don't think anybody ever expects more than about a post a day.

Just a thought, but if the players don't make posts after say 48 or 72 hours, you may just want to role for them, or simply have them lose their turn. I've found that in PBP if you wait for everyone, you end up slowing the game to a halt, which then causes delays from all your good players when the time for action finally comes back around to them.

Another option I use for my games is to roll init for the players, saves some time.
I usually handle that in my games, too. Most PBP players are cool with the DM making their rolls to save time.

Just FYI, the party has until Rashelle's turn to explain what's happening, otherwise from her PoV Hollister is a traitor who just tried to assassinate our contact.
Absolutely. Thought technically, Hollisters action is up for the time being...so it will be up to Korrin and Torrent to say something. Of course, if Rashelle was paying attention, she might notice Badgerface's changing form as he runs away, and that may give a few extra moments to explain.

Torrent just went. She's not about to tell anyone that Badgerface isn't Badgerface until all the PCs have gone again.
Hollister, note that since the NPCs have gone, you can go again.
Plavin can also take his actions now. In fact, everyone except Korrin, who already went, can go now.
The points about speeding up combat are well taken. I'll roll init next time instead of waiting for each person. Jemal, as long as the party is physically close-ish, I'll have everyone roll init. Even if you don't plan on doing anything, it's easier when everyone's in a slot.
Hollister, note that since the NPCs have gone, you can go again.
Ah, yes. Thanks!

I'll be traveling for work for most of next week - June 8 to June 12. I should have Internet access and be able to post, but I don't know for sure. So if I don't say anything for the next week or so, that's why.
