General Discussion Thread X

A doesn't seem to be a problem (there are a few floating around and a few more coming). Xir was waiting for that. If you think it won't come along soon, he can take off on other journeys.

I'd like to finish up Rheim first, so depends on how long that goes.

RA: Imortality Awakens seems to be grinding to a hault. I'm the only one who's posted in 2 weeks in it, and I can't realy do much to help in this situation without breaking character, which I've kind of had to do several times already to push the game

I think I've mentioned this before, but is there any way we can get the Atlas & Almanac thread stickied?

 

[Bront]

Isn't there a link to it in the stickied threads?

We should have the Wiki linked to somewhere in a stickied thread.

 

[Rae ArdGaoth]

Heh, I'm one step ahead of you Bront. I just added a link to the Wiki in the Enworld Guide, where there is indeed a link to the Atlas and Almanac.

Hey. I just wrapped up L2, the Dragon's Maw.

It ended with a whimper, not a bang, but at least its over. I'm not sure if Erekose is still judging. I suppose I'm due some DM credits. Shouldn't be much, since not much really happened, but I tried.

IMO, if the Judge of a game is forced to pick up a game in the middle, they should get all the GM credits for the entirity of the time, not the GM who abandoned the game. Wasn't that in the rules under GM credits or am I imagining?

That wasn't my recollection -- I thought GMs who pick up a game in progress only get credit for the time they run the game. You may be thinking of the AWOL GM who gets no credit at all if they leave without warning or without helping to transfer the game.

But, now I look through the records to check on this -- and it seems we have no extant record of that rule at all! Is there a record anywhere of the text of the DM credit rule that survived the crash of '06?

Hmm...maybe I misremembered. Still, the people who pick up games here when the GMs vanish are going above and beyond the call of duty. It's one reason that at least a few people like to play in LEW rather than the typical PbP boards. They deserve to be commended extra for that extra effort.

When it's been me, I asked for and recieved DM credits only for the period I was DMing, not the period in which I was judging.
