[meta] The Story Hour Reader Appreciation Thread!!

[Rel]

This thread was a great idea, nemmerle. As I have said many times before, I would record what happens in my games even if there were no Story Hour board to post them on. But is much more gratifying to have readers.

I hope I don't leave anybody out. My memory isn't what it used to be and I lost all the posts from others when we transferred to the new boards (was that really just over a month ago? It seems like years.).

Broccli_Head (one of my most loyal posters and a fan of many, many story hours)
Darklone
Blood Jester
Single Malt
Thorntangle
ShawnLStroud (whose new story hour is fantastic)
Lazybones
WSmith
Malachai_rose
theRuinedOne
drnuncheon
Sword Dancer

Special mention goes to Old One who I stole the whole campaign setting from and whose name will appear in the title as long as I run the game. Old One, I don't think I'll ever be quite the GM that you are but I hope you still feel like I've done right by the world that you've invested so many hours in creating.

I'd also like to mention a name I didn't see above (although I could easily have missed it) - cezmail. I understand that due to real life problems, he has been unable to visit the boards lately but I think a lot of us owe him a word of thanks. I used to see his posts in just about every Story Hour I read and I know that he posted to a lot that I don't read. He was tireless in his praise for a lot of the thread here but he also asked a lot of insightful questions. I miss him and I hope he comes back soon.

Lastly, I'd like to thank my players without whom there would be no Story Hour. I've been whipping their butts pretty hard lately and they haven't complained too much. They are great guys and I look forward to playing RPG's with them for years and years to come.

I'd like to thank all my readers...don't know who they are, but thanks for reading nonetheless!

Writing a story hour has really helped me with my campaign; it helps me keep track of what's going on, as well as look at the campaign's progress from a more impartial perspective, to see what's working well and what might be lacking. I highly recommend it to all DMs!

And thanks to my players for suffering through all the torment--er, adventures!

Cezmail, where art thou?

Rel -

I should be beaten for forgetting Charlie! I agree, he was a tireless fan of many story hours and provided great commentary! I look forward to seeing him return to the boards!

Thanks, those of you who glanced at my stuff. Greater thanks to people who commented. I'm one of those who only posts if I get feedback, since otherwise I figure I have better things to do, so your replies are what have been keeping me going. Thank you.

Shameless BUMP

*smile proudly*

 

[Piratecat]

Whoo hoo! The posters on my story hour are shamelessly breaking Rule One ("Never give the DM any ideas"), and are brilliantly analyzing the plot. I'm honored.

I'll admit I was hesitant to post our story hour at first because I didn't think anyone would care or want to read it. But after a year now, the view count keeps going up and people keep refuting that.

So thanks to all the Wizardru Story Hour readers. It really does help to know people are enjoying it.

 

[Tuerny]

I am impressed at how much more interested and dedicated the readers have become since I last tried to write a story hour. Either that or I am writing better than I was before

In particular I want to thank Rybaer, who has posted to my story hour more than anyone else, Tokiwong, who also read my Rokugan story hour, and Piratecat who was the very first one to post to my story hour. I can't wait to see what he thinks of my running Of Sound Mind starting Saturday.

 

[el-remmen]

I figured I'd bump this thread I found while searching for something else - as I am sure there are even more authors who want to thank some regular readers, and lots more regular readers to be thanked.

In my case,

Look_a_Unicorn
Jon Potter
Pillars of Hercules
and, Manzanita

Among others. . . Thanks!

Pillars of Hercules and Rune have followed me across the span of two Story Hours and I appreciate it. Especially since I had't posted an update in months before yesterday.

Thanks, geeks, your readership is appreciated.

Emiricol has pimped my Story Hour all over the place, which is always flattering.

Also thanks to the others who have posted in the thread, not named here.

Thanks for reading.
