Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil. ( CLOSED. )

sounds good.

Um... so you don't want us doing anything in the morning then? You know it usually makes less hard feelings if you come right out and say stuff like that instead of just ignoring our posts and railroading us to the next encounter. I know I'm feeling a bit put out. :\

Dude, she said she was going to wait to see who posts then move it along.

If you wanted to do something I think she gave fair warning. No one has posted on the IC thread since the 17th So everyone had ample opportunity AND a warning to state your intentions.

If anything WE ignored eachother's posts not Twisted ignoring ours.

As far as "railroading". When I sign up for the Temple of Elemental Evil PbP, I expect to eventually get there. It IS a module with set encounters and probably a set timeline.

I think one should come into the adventure expecting that.

I know I am feeling a bit put out by the way you approached this. It was inflammatory and accusatory. If you wanted or needed to do something in town, just say so...Nicely! I am sure Twisted would have let you "Go back in time" or re-edited so you could get done want you wanted.

My 2 coppers anyway.

I'm confused. Anyone else feel I moved the game along prematurely? I've been in and ran enough of these things that if you aren't nudged by the DM - the game loses speed and eventually falls apart. I try to balance the talky-talky with some action. Not everyone appreciates all the role playing.

I made a nice big post about Yun making a silly, preachy, speech to Maridosen in front of everyone. But you ignored it, Twisted. I wouldn't really have had a problem if you had just said you wanted us to move on and not to do any more roleplaying here. But you instead implied that we were supposed to do something in the morning, and so I did. And I was suddenly teleported away to somewhere else. I don't even know if my wagon is there.

The only one I saw complaining about the talking was Borson.

Truly, I've been getting bored the last day, as everyone but H4H and Borson ignored my post - including you.

I was gone the entire weekend, I suppose I would have let you know, but it was an unexpected event. Again, this weekend may not be much better for me either.

I don't mind it if you all talk, I was just saying that Serin, up to this point, hasn't made any big chapter-style dialogs.

I have been in 3 of these online games before, and all 3 games died after a month or so. I just hope this one continues.

And one more thing, we are all human, let's remember that mistakes can be made, it aint that big of a deal. I was hoping that evil guy would stop so I could mess with him, but he ran off... no big deal, I aint mad about it

I'm sorry I skipped Yun's speach. Maridosen wouldn't have responded at all. That's how she works, and unless Yun wished to attack her.. he wouldn't have gotten anything other than a glare from her.

Honestly, I'm a bit offended that you ( Dire ) are calling me out on my DMing methods. I didn't think moving the game along was an issue, nor does any one else it seems. I hate to sound like a bitch, but they probably aren't going to change. I'm sorry that I over looked your post.. but I have a way I wish to go about this, and it may mean glossing over some of the minor details once in a while to get to the important destination. If you don't like it? Well, then you have two choices. Suck it up, or drop the game.

Once again, I'm not trying to be mean.. but I'm not going to take kindly to you pointing out things you don't like all the time. I'd really like you to stay in the game, Dire, as I really like Yun. But, I cannot make you enjoy yourself. Nor am I going to wait days on people to post when I could easily just move the game along, and not really harm any thing.

Yun was concentrating on the person he was talking to; Maridosen. So he didn't really notice Jayla at all.

Twisted, thanks for explaining it to me. That's all I was really asking for was an explanation. I'll try to limit my posts to just a few lines of dialogue or actions from now on.

That's not what I'm saying. I like your playing style. I was just tellin' my SO the other day that I'm impressed with the quality of play in this game. What I'm saying is.. you've guys were in town for a while, the game wasn't to revolve around the tavern. The only reason I made you wait 'til morning before setting out is because that's what the group as a whole decided.
