[QUOTE="Psion, post: 3242671, member: 172"] Okay all, 2 things before you drift off into your holiday malaise: [b]Replacement routine[/b] Okay, I've been chewing my lip on how I can best give everyone a chance to play without screwing the active folks. If the following gets both the active and standby folks mad, all should be good! This is the routine: [list] [*]If an active player's active PC is slain, if they are not raised, the player moves to the standby list. [*]An active player may switch their PC at any interlude. Generally, take an interlude to be any time the players are not in an adventure site. [*]If a PC is slain and not raised (either because they can't be or they elect not to), the remaining members of the party weigh in on what type of character they want to see replace it -- primary arcane/psion, primary divine, primary rogue, primary warrior, or mixed. [b]I[/b] will then decide who responds to your call for help to fill in your ranks (generally, based on who is higher on the wait list.) A standby player has 24 hours to respond or I will move down the wait list. [*]An active player who does not post for a week may be waitlisted at my option. [/list] Suggestions? Angry frothing? [b]Starting the game[/b] I will be posting the initial scenario as soon as at least 3 characters are done and approved. Basically, the PCs have agreed to meet at a tavern in Blackrock, and you may post your arrival as soon as your character is approved. For the early investigation scenario, we shouldn't need all the characters, and I am chomping at the bit here. [/QUOTE]
