48 hours afk protection, my good sir. I won't be draconian about it, but if a player doesn't post within that period, and is holding the group up then... well. You know what happens.

If you'll be away at any point for longer than that, then just say so. I'll look after the characters.

I like it. It adds a sense of dread and urgency that other games like this have failed to establish in the past.
