Call to the Four Lands - OCC

[Maidhc O Casain]

I've been thinking the same thing for several months now, actually. I'm in some games that are lucky to get a post a week.

My impression (without any actual numbers to back it up) is that IC posts are down, while OOC posts seem to be doing somewhat better.

What you saying Mowgli that we chatter mor then we play??? LOL

That goes without saying. Look at who we have as "regulars" around here.

Rhun, Leif, Scott, Theroc and I (though I have slowed down due to the Real World- Hagerstown)

All we do is chatter, chatter, chatter. Sorries.

No worries - it's supposed to be a social outlet, right? I mean, the reason we play is to hang out with friends!

I used to get a lot more frustrated wtih the IC pace than I do now. My main worry is that too slow a pace seriously messes with enthusiasm and continuity. I mean, I have trouble remembering some things from one hour to the next so when I'm three rounds into a fight and trying to remember what happened two weeks (18 seconds) ago my poor old brain sometimes wants to give up . . .

No what you mean there I have been forgetting character concepts and asking my self why did i pick that feat what am I trying to do here? What i am disliking is the game drop rate think I have 5 or 6 that have started then "poof". Now I know how everyone felt when I went to jail last year.

Yes, the boards, especially in IC, have slowed way down as far as posting goes. Hell, I have to prompt my players to get them to post in some of my games.

 

[renau1g]

Yeah, like give them a list of options to go with

 

[Rhun]

If you'd just go with what my PCs say, the decisions would already be made!

 

[renau1g]

It's been fairly surprising and I'm not sure why. Even a lot of long timers are fairly slow. Seems like a lot more people have a lot less time than previously, at least that's what I've seen in a lot of posts about why things are slow.

 

[HolyMan]

Could te flu be in part the reason for some of the slow postings about? I think there are like 5 other people besides myself who have posted they have it or hd it tis year. Is EnWorld infected with H1-N1????

Me?????????????? Surely you're msitaken, HM! I only post pertinent, cogent statements that invariably further the game! (Anyone buying this??)

Is it just me or have people noticed a slow-down in general on the boards? People just seem to be posting less often... or maybe I'm just impatient.

You're just impatient. Bloody demanding Canadians!
