Well this is timely given L4W's recent passage of the same suggestion, but I'm not sure if LEB could support it. L4W had 3-5 adventures waiting, plus at least 2 more people saying they wanted to run one. In LEB we don't really have that. I believe I'll be running one third of the LEB games when my short adventure kicks off. As much as I'd personally love to have another mid-heroic PC, I'm not sure the DM's are there, especially in the long-haul.
Just wanted to note that I'm working on a 2nd addy, specifically for my first group if they are interested. Others can give it a try if not.
I did talk abou this earlier as well. Specifically when PHBIII came out(3PCs, 3PHBs). The other option I proposed was to spend DM credits for a third PC.
Wow, looks like I should have run 2 or 3 short adventures instead of hogging 1/8th of the characters all to myself for my very long adventure, lol. I think my adventure still has about 6-8 months worth at our current posting rate, too. Ah well. The DM points will be awesome at the end ^_^
I don't think so. I think the longer adventures result in comradery that shorter adventures wouldn't.
Just because we have a shortage of adventures doesn't mean that all or even most adventures should be shorter. It means that more people need to sign up to run an adventure.
Supply and Demand. The demand doesn't change just because supply is cut up into less for each person demanding.
When low on supply, the solution is to increase supply.
