Hanging in there. Better than the alternative.
I don't really have time for PbP games anymore.
At least, until mid-August, when school starts up again. At that point, I'm not sure if I'll have time for PbP games again, but my schedule will certainly change enough that I can't be sure one way or another. It's unlikely I'll have end up having time in August, though.
I originally started PbP games (... two and a half years ago?) to quench my D&D thirst (thank you, LEW!), but I now have a semi-regular weekly game to run. So, not only do I not have much time for PbP games, I don't need PbP games to quench my D&D thirst any longer.
Many of my previously PbP games have died off, as they tend to do, but a few still muster on at very slow paces. In one, my GM is a college buddy, and I have a secondary interest in staying in that game: to keep in regular contact with a good friend of mine. What I'm not sure what to do about is my LEW game.
I have three LEW characters. Two of them are currently inactive, and are happy to stay inactive until I have more time for LEW. The third (and the highest level of the three), Anton, is not only active in a game, but is, to my understanding, a major player in a different game's plot.
I really like Anton and would love to continue to play him in the future, but his fate is currently up in the air. It'd be easiest for me to just withdraw him from his current game and then continue to play him in the future, but I think that'd cause problems elsewhere. Then again, having him NPC'd would likely cause other problems because, since he has fewer friends than enemies and is in a rather delicate situation, I think he'd end up in a stickier situation than he otherwise would end up.
So, what to do?
