Heroes of Highdale OOC

[Ilium]

Ok, I just looked at the OOC for Ferrix's game and apparently he's having some RL complications that are preventing him from being around much. Hopefully he will be back in force soon.

In the meantime, that leaves us with two players who are posting regularly and two who are posting very intermittently if at all. I don't want the game to die, and I certainly don't want to penalize those guys just because their real lives have gotten complicated. For the moment we'll keep limping along as best we can. I think I'll come up with some sort of standard practice. If you don't post for X days during a combat, I NPC your character for a round and we move on. Any opinions on what X should be?

Err. Two days or so?

 

[Ilium]

Sounds good to me. IC post coming today. Hopefully LR and Ferrix can re-join us on a regular basis sometime soon.

Hmm. I've been feeling guilty for not posting for a few days, but nobody else has either. Hopefully just a lull. We'll pick it up next week. You guys have to decide if you're going to climb over the rock wall (leaving the horses behind) or bash it down.

I think we're a brute force sort of group.

Roll Call! I'm just wondering if folks are away or what's going on. I know my own posting has been spotty lately and I just want to make sure I still have everyone's attention.

I'm starting to wonder if maybe I shouldn't recruit another player to take up the posting slack while Ferrix and Lord_Raven aren't around. A fifth party member wouldn't be unreasonable and a third regular poster would be a big help.

 

[Jdvn1]

I'm still around!

I agree that another play might be useful.

Ok, I haven't been posting. I've just been swamped, and barely keeping up with the games I'm playing in, much less trying to run this one. Ick.

So between that and half the players being unavailable I think we have a problem. What I'd like to do with your permission is put the game on TEMPORARY hiatus. I have a big deadline at work on Nov. 3rd, so hopefully things will relax a bit after that. So that would be a 3-week break, picking up again on November 6th. Is that OK with you guys?

 

[Jdvn1]

It's certainly okay with me! I've been super busy gushing about my new amazing girlfriend.

 

[Ilium]

Well, I guess we'll accept that as an excuse not to game...this time.
