Malvoisin's Savage Tide OOC Thread *Resurrected*

[stonegod]

I am curious as to the feelings of the rest of you on this matter. What is an acceptable length of time to wait before we decide to throw in the towel on Gwyd and seek a replacement? I welcome your thoughts.

Its a difficult thing, and I'm facing a similar dilemma over in my Ravenloft game. All I know is that his laptop was fixed two weeks ago, but supposedly he is having connectivity problems (some folks on LEB commented on this, but I can't find a post). We still have a week or two (I'm guessing) until we are out of here, and I'd give him that bene, but I know I wouldn't want to have to NPC him forever.

I'd give him the opportunity to rejoin however (assuming we are in a good place for that). If we were higher level, Chongo could be a cohort.

I give the PCs in my game a month of unexcused absense before I remove/replace their PCs.

I know there can be extenuating circumstance, but I figure anyway should be able to find a way to at least log in during that time frame and say they won't be back fro a bit. And it is much easier to do at certain junctures of the game than in others.


Just my 2 coppers.

I'm with Rhun, there is nearly always a way to communicate your absence if you really want to. I say we give him until we are about to set out for the next stage of the adventure before we make any replacements. That will maximise the time for them to respond.

Been re-reading the thread; good times. We do banter well. Just like silly elves berating an old man's non-ability to float.

I know, I feel that the chemistry amongst this group has been really strong.

I feel like I am starting to get back in the groove, hopefully we'll be able to get this thing flowing again like before. Today was a good start.

Ooh, a scroll held by a disease bloated corpse grip, overcome the danger to get the loot. I'll just use mage hand to pry it out safely then prestidigitation to clean it up so it is not covered in infected corpse matter.

No wait. I'm a trapfinding roguish beguiler. I don't have mage hand, prestidigitation, or any other trap appropriate magic on my tricksy-tailored class spell list. :\

I'll have to stick to banter.

That's alright...just leave it to Anar to attempt the dangerous recovery.

You take care of that, I'll be helping Col with his walker.

Back in my day, we treated our elders with respect!
