I guess I'm glad that I didn't take My Gawd Likes Me. Asking in non-metagame terms, I probably would've been granted things that are non-core and I'd be all "what's this?" even more than I am now. Still, the boon seems to be an effective one so far, but so is the one I chose.
i'm really really glad i took My Gawd Likes Me. polearm flying to my hands? a teleport a quarter of the way across the field? this, sir, is "hot shizzit".

will someone tell green slime/vraketh that he has 24 hours from this posting to send me his turn or he will be imprisoned as per the spell?
 


Is it just me, or has this Game hit a brick wall of uninterest?

If it isn't just me, I'm afraid that people will start dropping out from lack of interest and the moves taking just too darned long.

clockwork - are you fighting to keep the game going, or just letting things slide? Is there something going on in your life that is making it hard for you to continue the Game?
Communicating with us, the players, might help to stave off the fatal killer of online games: lack of activity.

I sent email over 3 days ago, asking a question I need to plan my next move...

Could you give me the answer I need to plan my next move, please?

I think it's starting to slide. On the other hand, if people start dropping, those of us that are still interested will probably be moving more quickly - and Therron can get out of that Maze a little sooner. :)
 

calm down, reaper. this round and the next one will be the big attrition rounds. people are going to be dropped, and characters are going to die. it should go down by ~3 or 4 at the end of the next round.

(wow - one player is mighty quick to reply and still interested! 3 minutes - a new record? ;))

Yes, that would be a Good Thing, so that I might be able to actually start playing the Game after so long, but if that happened, in my experience, it would just be inevitable that the Game would die.

We should decide as a group how to treat the inactivity of players. If clockwork IS slowing down the Game to allow for players to come back, we should ask:
Do we want to be doing that?
The damage of such an approach probably outweighs the benefits.

And IF clockwork is slowing down the Game because of personal reasons, than we are in big trouble.

Players, we can lose and still go fighting on with the players that want to continue...

We can't finish the Game without clockwork's continued personal efforts.

don't do that, Saep.
I'm completely calm, and you know it.
Can't we just talk?

As for your 'point', are you saying that this round's drag is because people are taking extra strategy-time, because the moves are so crucial? (I don't think that's exactly right)

Or is your point that it just takes a long time to drop disinterested players, and the drain on the Game for everyone else is an unfortunate necessity?
(Cause that's an interesting point, if so)

(P.S. the amount of talking within 10 minutes is proof of many Players' commitments, in my eyes.
Good job, guys.)
