[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 4289502, member: 4936"] Just wanted to address the 'background' thing for myself and myself only. I realize Aranel fell quiet there towards the end...this was not because I was frustrated, however. At least not with the game. Enworld has become extremely difficult to use during the hours that I traditionally use it, so a slowdown in my posting was inevitable. Not to mention, under the circumstances, it felt natural to me for Aranel to defer to an elder...especially one who's skills better suited the situation. Rest assured that I, and therefore she, was paying attention. :) Generally speaking, if I am having a problem with a game, I will let it ride for a bit to see if it fixes itself, or if I can fix it myself...then I will bring it up in an OOC thread. I am not the sort to suffer in silence, then abruptly quit in frustration. :) Conversely, if someone else has a problem with what I'm doing in a game...or not doing, as the case may be...I appreciate candor (though tact is nice too ;)). Especially in the written medium, intents can be hard to divine, and I usually err on the side of not inferring it when there's any doubt. This means that subtle allusions to things I do, or don't do, that are causing a problem may not be acted on, or even noticed by me. It's not because I'm callous or insensitive or don't care though. I'm a big boy. I can take some criticism. :) With the above observations and comments, I'm not trying to say I feel picked on either. I don't. They're really 'just in cases.' Getting back to the game at hand, while Aranel would be all for taking the hobbits to Isen...er...Thranduil, I the player wouldn't be offended if the others disagreed and/or if it was decided not to. Just to be clear on that. It's merely what she would think is best, given the situation. :) [/QUOTE]
