OOC Thread for Scotley's Tomb of Horror's 3.5

[renau1g]

I must agree. I quite enjoy Fin as well and don't relish the idea of him meeting his end due to player drop-out, that's for the Tomb to take care of

In deference to my esteemed colleagues, renau1g and Scott Dewar, I will add my voice to the growing chorus that pleads with Scotley to continue this game. Plus, you just KNOW that you want to kill us with all of these horrible traps!

This, but add Leif to the 'esteemed colleagues' .

Excellent point, WD! We CAN'T stop now! We must complete the adventure, or die trying. Gary would have wanted it that way.

OK, it was asked by Scottly the dm for us to give our opinions on the two missing players.

First though i want to ask if i get paid $10.00 per page to find this thread, if so it was on page 7, so that will be $70.00 please.

Second, in my most humble opinion, I would like to say that i put a good bit of time and thought into Harrison Bentz and am not too fone of the idea of totally abondoning this game. I personally feel that re-opening for recruitment is my prefered action.

OOC: I would pay the $70; however, I do not reward incompetence in my employees. You could have followed the link in my signature thread found in my first post of each page of any game we are mutually involved in. There is also a link at the top of the first post in the IC thread.

Four of five active players want to continue and one vote for a re-recruiting. Do any of the rest of you have an opinion on filling out the ranks?

The current party has a rogue, cleric, sorcerer, fighter x2.

What would you like to see added to the group or we could continue with 5.

I'm happy those of you that remain wish to continue. I'm certainly enjoying the game. And as you say, I'd hate to miss out on those traps.

 

[renau1g]

I'm actually ok with 5, it'll keep the pace moving quickly (I think) and we have the main positions covered. If we go with re-recruiting I'd like to add a wizard to cover some of the utility spells the sorceror doesn't have covered.

Fin'll take care of traps (hopefully, unless they take care of him first )

 

[Walking Dad]

Yes, we got the basics covered, and the remaining group seems pretty reliable. Perhaps recruit an alternate? How many rise dead spells do we have

 

[Leif]

I'm with renau1g and wd (again?), we're lean and mean now. But if you just HAVE to recruit another, make it a wizard, please? And make sure he's a real ass kicker, too!

 

[Scott DeWar]

well three thing i must say:

1: this, as has been pointed out by wd and reinforced by leif, is to honor the late great gary gygax and we would do a gread dishonor to him if we just up and quit.

2:i thing 5 is ok, but as leif mentioned, it never hurts to have a bit more arcane backup

3: Wd asked an important question. It has been mentioned twice that the traps are what are supposed to kill us, not a player drop out...i personallyhave never been through TOH but wds pointed question of :raise dead availability, that is an important factor when it comes to traps. does our cleric have that spell available?
