[Yellow Sign]

Ambushbug, did you check to see what characters where already in the game? We already have someone playing a catholic priest.

 

[Yellow Sign]

Just a note to my players. Please keep your charaters stats up to date in the Rogue's Gallery. Mainly keep track of your current sanity score. Thanks!

I know the game has been kinda slow lately but that is mainly because of some busy and away players. Hopefully we can get chugging along again soon.

 

[AmbushBug]

where would you like me to post the character? and where is the Game's message board located?

 

[Shapermc]

Is there a problem with the game? I would think that things would pick up with where the game is right now. I don't want to have to push the game along. I hope to give everyone a chance to respond and interact. If I am doing something wrong please tell me so I can correct it.

Well due to the nature of the Beast (PbP gaming that is) it can be hard to tell if we are waiting at a point in the game because there is something important to find or discuss, or because we have not decided to move on (because conversations can take a week that would normally take no more than 5 min). In the situation of the later I think that the GM/Keeper has a duty to almost PUSH the story along.

It is like walking your dog, do you let it sniff the ground for a half hour when you know that nothing is there, or do you pull on the leash and continue on your walk. You as the GM have the leash, sometimes you need to pull on it (take controll of our PC's and move us to a more productive area. If you feel like things are getting stagnent in a conversation or in searching make a post something like "If no one has anything else to do I will move the plot along. If no one posts by this time to morrow we will move on." Then do it. Aside from that all is really great!

I loved that picture

Shapermc, I think your right. I just have to push things along ever so often but I want to give everyone a chance before then. . Byron's_Ghost sent me that picture. I think it is Great too... ...Thanks Byron's_Ghost!!

I knew the pit was a bad idea...

So boss, does this count as a Mythos-related insanity? (Do I get +2 ranks in Cthulhu Mythos?)

 

[Yellow Sign]

Nope no Cthulhu Mythos skill for seeing the creature. You and Hamish failed your sanity rolls but Hamish got lucky with only 5 points of sanity loss. You were kinda lucky too as you could have lost 20 points maximum.

 

[VorpalBunny]

20 pts.!!!!

Guys - I'm really sorry but I'm going to have bow out of this game. My wife just had emergency surgery today for an ectopic pregnancy and I'm afraid between taking care of her and my daughter I won't have the time to follow the game for at least a few weeks.

YS - feel free to play John Carter if you think it's necessary.
