Sorry for the away time, been thinking... and I still don't get it. I've had an epiphany- but not in a good way, I used to come home from work and rush upstairs to see who has posted and eagerly get my reply done.
At the start it was fast and furious, with multiple posts by you guys/day- and I loved it, some days I couldn't wait to get home- I would post at work, or else figure out what I was going to say and make notes for myself. These days, well... it's tailed off somewhat, and this isn't a blame thing it's just the reality. So I've stopped rushing home, I've stopped looking ahead- I've mapped out the next adventure (and much of the one after that), as in made all my notes and drawn out the maps for maptools. I've made a city guide for Fallcrest (and maybe one other city), I've even done a crude (one page) mock up of the Fallcrest Flyer with the story of the heroes return... I have a file. I'm a little obssessive.
The problem being the PBP has stopped being the thing I obssess about, it's fallen off the radar somewhat. The pace of the game now may be normal- as I've stated lots of times previously this is my first attempt at a PBP. My problem is I've done all the work, and... things are so slow.
I've spent the last few days not posting and thinking to myself- would I miss the PBP if I stopped doing it, and the answer of course (having read this far) is probably not.
I don't want to just stop without giving you guys the chance (if you want) to make me see things differently, and again- its the pace I have problems with, what was exciting (every day) has become turgid. I feel like I'm having to kick people to get involved, and that's no fun for me or for you guys- it shouldn't have to be like that. I guess busy lives and a story that has become less involved for you (my bad).
Any thoughts, otherwise I think I may have to make my apologies and curtail the game...
