Dice Kazragun - OOC

Rather quite here the last few days - thought I leave a post in case someone missed the notification.
 
Happens every so often, sadly - been damn busy myself the last couple of days, haven't caught up with all the posts yet.
 
Hi there, Silanon here.


Thought I'd share a few thoughts on this rp and maybe get some feedback.


Despite your great character concepts and writing, this rp is going downhill for quite some time, mostly due to my inexperience and thus lacking skills as a gm. As it turns out, things are very different whether you join an rp as a player, or dm it yourself. I feel like there are some great ideas (at least I think they're great - maybe that's a misconception) that I didn't convey in the way I had hoped, thus making the whole thing less worthwhile than it should have been. Think I managed to learn from one or two mistakes, while repeating others before even noticing - quite unsatisfying, probably moreso for you guys than for me.


Thus, i wanted to ask how the mood is right now - do you feel like continuing the journey, or would you rather not get notifications for posts like these, instead focussing on other projects here on RPN? Wouldn't be offended if you choose the latter, I myself have a few examples of great gming on my list of rps as well. In any case, I'd love some constructive feedback - be it to make this rp continue in a better manner, or utilize it for some rp I might try to gm in the future. I made a list of things to look out for myself, but am certain that it's not complete by a long shot. Feel free to write something down here in the ooc, pm me or abstain from answering, whatever is the most convenient for you.


Thanks and cheers!
 
Mostly for me I'm spending less time on here due to finals, but as soon as finals are over I should have the energy to continue the story with the same energy I had when starting it,
 
I've been enjoying posting about Veskassdak. Also, I am still new at play-by-post gaming and the other games I tried died so quickly that we didn't even get out of the tavern so to speak. I want to continue.
 
Alrighty - thought I'd wait for a bit to give everyone the chance to respond.


Meanwhile, let me add a tiny little thing - the post above was written in a rather bad mood, and might sound more negative than it was intended. Truth is, I'm having a damn great time reading all of your posts here, just felt like my side of things was a bit lackluster in comparison. I'll certainly work on the latter, as it seems that we'll continue in full strength. Good thing, really, since I have a few nice ideas flying around here, ready to be unleashed...


For now, the plan would be to finish the current chapter soonish, and then move on to the eponymous place in the north-west. The latest ic-posts read like you're ready to continue your travel - let me know ic or ooc if I shall move us forward, or if anyone feels like posing another question to the mad figure you ran into.
 
I'm just gona... let the others take the reigns of social shit. 


I'll be around if yea need me.
 
I'm enjoying the game. Been out with mono. Just feeling alive now. All my games have suffered for it. Don't sell yourself short. Doing a pbp is hard. I'm having a good time though.
 
Alright - consensus seems to be that the others wait for Wren to make a move. Do you wish to retreat, prepare your crossbow to welcome the foe once he shows himself on top of the palisade, or do something else entirely, @Sherwood?
 
Sorry for the delay.  I'll post now. Its just been a busy week.
 
In a short moment of enthusiasm during my lunch break, I forgot that it's pre-Christmas season - and that you have others to look after as well. Sorry for that, didn't mean to rush you or anything.
 
It's ok. Sometimes even I need a nudge to get going.
 
I editted my post since Veskassdak didn't reach Wren before he was spotted. It didn't make sense to leave it as it was since it was no longer what had happened.
 
Thanks for that, makes it easier to reread things later on.


Apart from that, I just wanted to make a short remark on the upcoming holidays: The Christmas days are traditionally reserved for family activities for me - I might get posts in in the mornings or evenings, or might not - depending on how things pan out. At the latest, responses will appear on the 27th. To all of you who celebrate, have a few calm and peaceful days without your everyday troubles!
 
Okay quick question. When you wrote Veskassdak had a -1 dexterity, did you mean penalty to dexterity based skills, he has a -1 dexterity score penalty, or his dexterity became -1?
 
I meant it as a debuff - i.e. he should be on a healthy dexterity of 12, instead of 13. It's not like he'd be unable to move or anything, just something that slows him a little bit.
 
I've been distracted from this game, and I am sorry. I'll get my head into character shortly.
 
Happy New Year! Let's hope it'll have even more peaks and fewer lows than the old one, health and happiness to you and those close to you.
 
It seems as if we lost our slinger over the holidays - is there still someone in here?


At the moment, I'm waiting for our cleric to specify his action after the additional info, since the ladder is not easily reachable for him. Also, both Baird and Wren can take a proactive action if they so desire.
