Haha, weeelll....I had the same thought about your characters being 4th level and not knowing what appropriate starting wealth should be. That's why I included the Armed to the Teeth, Booty, and Magic Trinkets fortunes!So you can't complain that I haven't been accommodating!
By side adventure do you mean "stealing and piracy spree"?![]()
It looks like those of us who are able to post more regularly and those who are not will need to find some happy medium of posting that works for everyone.
“Five thousand louis d'or might sound like a lot of dinero however, when you are trying to care for the men you need to run the vessel, feed those 50 men and keep them well or care for their illnesses, stock the boat with all the equipment we need… well, you see it can get used up quickly if you do not have someone who knows what they are doing. We will endeavor to find the wreck in a month’s time – if we are frugal with our funds we should be able to support our crew and ship that long.”
Also, I didn't mean to imply that I am a stickler for exact gp numbers for starting gear. If it feels right, go for it. Just use the average wealth by class table as a guideline.I'm not complaining, you've been super generous in all ways from cool treasure to crunchy character stuff! Maybe I'll recheck my fortunes![]()
Haha, well let's cross that bridge if it turns out there really is a persistent and significant discrepancy in everyone's posting availability. Sound good?And yes, I sure did mean a stealing and piracy spree! If you can't afford it, you steal it, right? I mean there are so many evil people out there who need to be relieved of dangerous items, no? I mean... For the greater good and all...![]()
I think that's true of some face-to-face games too. I also hope it goes for a while, and if we have turnover in the player base that's fine too; pirate ships have a tendency to lose and gain people along the way anyhow!Yes, it's always difficult when some people can post more than others. A lot of PBP games start out very fast then slow down. Unfortunately a lot, in my experience most, games die fairly quickly.You've put a lot of effort into this game so I'm hoping it'll go a very long time! Each GM has their kind of limit as to how long they wait for people to post before moving on, some want a post a day during the week, some just a couple of posts a week.
So... interestingly both Barrington and du Tourbillon took this to mean she was bragging that they would be done in a month.
Thanks for the feedback about posting frequency [MENTION=2820]Fenris[/MENTION]. I'll just keep on at a medium pace.
Awesome! I'll finish my list today and run it by youAlso, I didn't mean to imply that I am a stickler for exact gp numbers for starting gear. If it feels right, go for it. Just use the average wealth by class table as a guideline.
Heh. I was actually just teasing about that. I am sure there will be plenty of time IN game for piracy and hijinks.Haha, well let's cross that bridge if it turns out there really is a persistent and significant discrepancy in everyone's posting availability. Sound good?
That is true, yes. Sometimes players are just not a right fit with other player's styles. Being a grown up is hard workI think that's true of some face-to-face games too. I also hope it goes for a while, and if we have turnover in the player base that's fine too; pirate ships have a tendency to lose and gain people along the way anyhow!
Weeelllllllll we're not done yet, are we?EDIT: Oh yeah, I'm surprised you guys haven't asked for a cash advance yet!![]()
1) You never get something you don't ask for and 2) PIRATE!!! Of course, as pirates, I suppose we shouldn't get upset when we're on the other end of that. 3) My goodness you are lawful, aren't you? Is that you speaking, Jim or both?That is what I had understood -- I think we'd need to clarify in any case, but I don't see the likelihood of coming back asking for more later. We get the amount we negotiate now, and as a result du Tourbillon gets his shares when there are things to share.

Oh yeah, there's that whole walking the plank thing... I hope we bring along extra scrubs who we won't miss if they end up in the drinkI think that's true of some face-to-face games too.

Heh. We're onto you already!!There is no smiley for looking innocently up in the corner of the ceiling and avoiding a question, is there?
