[QUOTE="Quasqueton, post: 2486520, member: 3854"] One of the Players' mother is very ill and she needs to be there. I can fully understand this, and I am sorry for the Player's family illness. I would never expect a game of D&D to even factor into being a decision to make in a case like this. But jeez. It's going to be *another* week before we can play again, and actually, finally, get into the plot and adventure I've had ready for 2.5 months. I'm actually emotionally exhausted now over the anticipation of this adventure. This situation kind of makes me think of going back to an old-school style of play: just dungeon to dungeon, no "campaign", and just play with who shows up. But that lacks the long-term fun of a campaign. But at least we could play each week, even if one or two folks can't show up. Now that I'm thinking about it, I don't think I've *ever* had a long-term campaign plot actually finish. Either the party gets a TPK or the group breaks up (always due to unrelated, Real World circumstances). I am cursed. Quasqueton [/QUOTE]
