Re: Absence & Hiatus

Hello folks,

Am going to the Tiscine for a week on Saturday and we won't have internet in the apartment. If I get the opportunity to post I will, but don't bank on it :) Back Saturday 9th July.

Would like to move the game on before I leave so hurry up Merlot and Ordus :)

Cheers, Shadow

Re: Absence & Hiatus

Hi all just a quick note to inform you all that I will be on annual leave from the 18th August 2012 for two weeks.

The first week I doubt I will be able to post as I will be sunning my self with my wife and daughter in Tenerife. The second week should be a little better as I will staying with my parents in Wales and they have a computer and failing that I will have my smart phone.

Could the GM please NPC my character from Saturday onwards. I will email you when I get back and will be able to post.

Please can you all look after my character and try not to get them killed :o)

Re: Absence & Hiatus

Just a quick heads up in case I drop off the radar.  I'm working full time and studying two units this semester (half a full-time load).  I also have two young children.  The result is that I have almost no spare time (I'm posting this from work, which I rarely do).

If I disappear it's because I'm genuinely struggling to make time, so while I apologise for any inconvenience I hope you won't be offended.  Please NPC me as needed.

About that combat map... you know it's very fiddly doing all the tags and lining things up ;) What I mean is, I need a solid hour to update the map and game post, and I haven't had that opportunity yet. I am hopeful I will get that hour tomorrow, but rather than miss another deadline let's just say it will be before the weekend.

Re: Absence & Hiatus

Folks, I am sorry but I am no longer able to continue with my games on RPoL. The success of 5th Edition has led to a vibrant English-speaking D&D scene here in Basel, and I am DMing face-to-face game for the first time in ages with a great group.

But there's a lot of prep involved, and I just don't have the creative energy to continue here as well.

This has been a great game with a great group of players. I feel like I am letting you all down and I apologise, but I would rather make a clean break than have the game die from my lack of attention.

Wishing you all the best in life and role-playing.

Thanks for the good times, Vinny

Hi Vinny

Please don't think you are letting anyone down this has been a great game to be involved in you've done a great job in running it.

If you put in half the effort into your face to face game as you've done here for us then your players will enjoy a fantastic gaming experience.

Have fun, enjoy the game and good luck in RL.

Been great gaming with you.
