No prob just checking :), I updated my profile.

FLURRY OF EDIT


Good thing for someone I didn't use that perception on her.


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Yup! That was my first thought.

Incidentally, one in-game favor goes to the person that catches the joke I've already placed.


As a head's up... a fairly important work project unexpectedly fell apart earlier today, so I'm going to be stuck pulling some pretty substantial over-time until the 18th or so. While this is good for my finances, it does mean I'll probably only be posting once or twice a day until then.


Male Nagaji Samurai 1 (Order of the Warrior)

No worries, take your time.

Oh and... Can anyone see my last post in the Gameplay thread? I can see it under my 'Posts' section but not when I actually go to the thread.

The last thing I see is this

Making sure his various weapons are cleaned, polished and arrayed on his person at various levels of holstered, Rasamoro heads down to the docks. Seeing a small group of people stand in front of the boat he believes to be the Ardhanya, Rasamoro heads over to them.

Rasamoro nods in recognition at his companions to be. "So we meet once more. May the waves take us swiftly to our destination.", he said to the small gathering at no one in particular. However he takes a closer look at Tophan with an expression that could be considered a frown. "Is that a custom for your kind before boarding a seafaring vessel?"

Perception vs Disguises 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10

Maybe you deleted it by accident, or there is a bug...


Female Kobold

There was a bug. I fixed it--quoting lost posts often makes them reappear.
It didn't reappear in this case, but it's quoted, so the post can be seen there.

Weird. I hope DA notice it.

Lol


Male Half-Orc Barbarian

Not gonna lie saw the "1 new" on my campaign page and I was like "&$%# yeah!" and then... 'bump'
-.-


Male Nagaji Samurai(Ronin) 1

I had the same reaction Toph...


Female Kobold

Sorry about that. It's always good practice to keep things moving, but when you've nothing to say, a 'bump' must suffice.


Male Half-Orc Barbarian

Indeed.


Male Nagaji Samurai(Ronin) 1

So is everyone else in other campaigns as well?


Male Half-Orc Barbarian

Aye, I'm in four, including this. Two post daily.
I also GM second darkness and play a winter witch in jade regent.


Female Kobold

I'm in two PbPs aside from this one, and also a big rules-light one.


Male Nagaji Samurai(Ronin) 1

Ahh, what's the rules light one like?


Female Kobold

Pretty interesting. Very diverse cast. It's basically...well, here's the intro.


Male Nagaji Samurai 1 (Order of the Warrior)

I'm in 3 others at the moment, though not on these boards. A Kingmaker campaign (on hiatus due to GM becoming homeless), a Jade Regent campaign (also on hiatus because GM just had a kid) and a custom world Pathfinder game where the whole party is about to get Ogre'd to death.


Male Human (Tian/Ulfen) Inquisitor (Preacher) 1

I'm in this and one other. It also just started, homebrew fantasy pathfinder. I don't like the other DM's style as much as this game, because he tends to tell us what our characters are doing. However these are my first PBP games so maybe that just comes with the territory. I also have two games IRL, but I DM both of them. So this is my only chance to play ~_~


Male Half-Orc Barbarian

Some DMs tell players what the characters do, but I usually bow out of those campaigns. I suspect it's to save time and move the game along, but, I can post 3-5 times or more daily, so I don't really need that done for me.


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

I am in.. Six total, including this one. Nakoda is a Savage Skald in Second Darkness, Ianthé Jack is an Imperial Commando irregular, Cassadar is a Flowing Monk, Desidera is a 3.5 ed Healer, and Nichelle is a Ninja in the FF Tactics Universe.

The pacing for all the others, save for Cassadar's is fairly slow, though six is my hard limit, four if I'm DMing. My last game was "Faith and Steel", and I fear I get caught up in the writing aspects and forget that there should be more "roll" in my roleplaying.

That's kinda how I feel. I was thinking about dropping out, but I feel like it would kinda be a dick move. Dunno. Seems like I'm not really losing anything by staying in, and when he does battles he puts up nice maps and stuff. We'll see how it goes.


Male Nagaji Samurai(Ronin) 1

Wow, I'm on a similar page as Me'mori, I play 1 IRL 3+this one online. And I just started DM'ing one here too.

Ras, what other site do you use?

Gui, I understand. When I DM I try to make it about collaborative storytelling and not step on anyone's toes.


Male Nagaji Samurai 1 (Order of the Warrior)

I started out on rpol.net, which is where I'm playing in the 3 other campaigns at the moment.

Thinking about getting my GM feet wet; I just started GM'ing IRL for some friends of mine, was pretty fun, if exhausting experience. I agree with being more of an adjudicator than a storyteller when it comes to GM'ing. Ultimately the players control the story, you're just guiding them. Having said that when I GM for my friends I have to put the foot down sometimes because they're a bunch of rules lawyers (AND Thespians, dear god) and refuse things out of principle for the sake of time/rest of the party.

(Awesome idea for a first time GM apparently is running a 9-11 Pathfinder Module with half an hour prep time, lol)


Male Half-Orc Barbarian

As a GM I encourage pcs to fully describe their action, but I do adjudicate their rolls with some descriptive flashiness on occasion.


Male Nagaji Samurai 1 (Order of the Warrior)

Whoo, plot progress!

Ahh, it's been a while since I've played a character who has honour oozing from various orifices. Usually I'm all for self serving, power hungry Wizards.

Fear not though, there's more to this lizard than meets the eye. ^^


Sorry for late post.

Kinda feel like I'm in the wrong timezone.


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

I've done some playing on rpol, but much of it faded, though I did have one that continued as an exercise to writing, completely independent of the main plot for a while.


I have to admit that I've not really done much traditional play by post in the past, though I was fairly heavily involved in WoD, Exalted, and L5R persistant games that used digichat as their medium for six or seven years.


Sorry, Some real life problems came up, so I won't be able to continue playing.


I'm sorry to hear about that Araki. Hope things get better for you.


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Aww.. Hope things resolve favorably for you.


Male Nagaji Samurai 1 (Order of the Warrior)

Good luck, Araki.


Male Hobgoblin Abjurer 1

Indeed, hope things work out.


Female Kobold

Due to internet troubles, my posts will be a little infrequent over the next few days.


Male Half-Orc Barbarian

Marco.


Male Nagaji Samurai(Ronin) 1

Polo...?


Male Human (Tian/Ulfen) Inquisitor (Preacher) 1

We're all waiting on Dream. Can't really do anything unless he posts, and since it's been over a week since his last post, I'm not expecting this to go anywhere. -shrug-

It's been exactly a week. I'm hoping but not expecting this is a momentary delay.


Male Human (Tian/Ulfen) Inquisitor (Preacher) 1

I'm gonna assume this game is dead for now. If it picks back up feel free to PM me, but I won't be checking the posts regularly.


My apologies to you all for vanishing as abruptly as I did. Life went to hell in a hand basket rather rapidly for me, starting with a totaled car, followed by the discovery that a room-mate had been stealing the rent payments for months, and the spiral just kept getting bigger.

I'm getting things back under control, but I have to admit that I don't know when or if I'll have time (or be in the right headspace) to focus on this campaign again, so I'm gonna call it deceased. Once again, you all have my apologies for letting you down like this.


Male Human Bard/Psychologist/Writer.

It's alright Dream, just take care of yourself. Get things right and don't worry bout us.


Female Kobold

It's alright, it was a challenging game to GM and you're busy. G'luck!
