[QUOTE="Rae ArdGaoth, post: 6003571, member: 21064"] OOC: It's all OOC from here, folks, take IC back to the tavern! Awards are pending Trouvere's approval. I suppose I also get 1 more DM credit, for the summary. Sorry this took so long. My initial prediction for this adventure was 1 month, we got close to 10, thanks in no small part to my own frequent absences. Some follow-up comments: It's [i]really[/i] easy to lose track of the adventure when it's not moving quickly enough, which is why I think lethal force was used on the dogs. There was so much emphasis on non-lethal force in November, going so far as to equip everybody with a quarterstaff, and all that was just completely forgotten half a year later in April, when the dog fight happened. Ultimately, I think "bloodbath on the Avenue" made for a more interesting adventure that might have ripple effects into the shared world, but if this were at a tabletop, I think it would have gone differently. My own lack of attention is really very much to blame for the pace of this game. As the DM, it's my responsibility to make sure things run smoothly, and I think it's pretty clear that I failed at that. I didn't hold myself to my own standard of one post per day, so what kind of standard does that set? I can't apologize enough for my disregard. That said, even after the player disappearances (rubisco, Kaleva, Medina, come back!) and the DM's soul searching about halfway through, we made it through to the end. Completing a PbP adventure is no small task, so thanks to everybody for your dedication. For those of you who left us, I definitely understand that real life takes priority. I do hope that whatever dragged you from this adventure wasn't anything serious; if it was, my thoughts are with you. I'll step off my soap box now. It was a pleasure! See you in the tavern. [/QUOTE]
