That could get uncomfortable for a barber

I don't get the point of the collab.

It wasn't edited for better flow; you can tell that you guys just pasted together a large series of posts made over PM, which defeats the entire purpose. Moreover, unlike a combat scene, which requires a bit of organization, this entire sequence didn't really need a collab of any kind. All it really did was make us think you'd flaked, because you spent days making this.

Keep this in mind next time. If you're not doing combat in a google doc, it's better to just post one at a time, like normal.

I agree with Bee, it paces the game a lot more, gives people time to react and also, nobody wants to be hit in the face with a wall of text after several days. Smaller posts more often are the way to go!

I'm starting to hit the dreaded bar where I begin to lose interest in the RP.

I think Bing's been gone for days now.

I nominate myself substitute GM until his return.

I support this move, I also admit the RP is going somewhat stagnant.

I'm good, don't think I really have anything else I need to do. Anyone else have anything they want their character to do?

As for say Remington, we can assume he escaped to do his nefarious plan another day, if it isn't wrapped up before morning.

Still here, if you need me! @Bee, I like how you took initiative. And yeah, Wyvern, exactly what Remmy would do.

I actually intended this to be an RP where I set out a very basic setting and assorted plot hooks and let my players do the rest. I thought this method would significantly lessen the effort I had to make in GMing. However, my method is going slightly wonky. If I need to pay more attention,

holler.

You can't just do that; you can't slack. A GM has to put maximum effort into games, and above all make sure something is actually happening. You need to both check up on and post IC in the game regularly. If a player doesn't show initiative and take over, it's far more likely everyone will just flake, and the game will die.

I have seen this happen too many damn times.

Stitches and Metronome, be good while I'm gone. I'd like you two to control my two whilst I'm away.

Presenting:

THE BATTLE OF ESTERMERE!

Features include -

- Much more involvement and writing skill from the GM as usual
- Intense medieval warfare in Forest Mither
- Expansion into Rostguard's history
- New elven ranger order
- Possible barber-surgeon hewing through the Nisceni ranks with a razor and a bone saw
- Possible gnomess hewing through the Nisceni ranks with grenades and alchemy
- Possible knight with vampiric kid strapped to back/left at home hewing through the Nisceni ranks with his sword and his sheer fabulousness
- Possible slaves given a spear and told to hit people with red cloaks with the pointy end
- Possible nobleman priest hewing through the Nisceni ranks with holy power, fabulousness and Atropos rapier thingy
- Character involvement
- Similar to LoTR battles.

Anyone interested?
