I have found that allowing some 'side actions' to either have their own thread or take place privately helps the game move when it needs to.  What happens is that the GM states when the game will move forward, and give players a chance to wrap up or do something else as they game moves.

Just an idea.  My characters have tended to hold up games by their nature. :)

In reply to Maverick (msg # 517):

I'm in.
Been missing this game like crazy.

Ok it's official. I am going to restart the game. I will make a post soon about how we are going to handle the time situation. In the meantime I have a few questions.

How long should I wait to allow others to maybe return?

Should I start over from the beginning? I don't believe anything that was posted really needs to be changed but a fresh start may help.

Hi Ya'll, hope your all doin good in RPOL land and RL. I know the re-boot here never got going and with out telling more than I can, I just wanted to let ya's know that Maverick is dealing with some RL issues of his own that are long over due and it will be awhile before he is back let alone able to GM a game.

With all that out of the way, I was wondering if any one knows of a game needing a player. A good Pathfinder style game or Western would be great but I'm open to others.
Thanks in advance and as always Happy Gamin' to ya's.

Maverick was, is, and  will always be  among my favorite GMs. I cut my teeth on him; he  might say quite literally.  ♡

The talent, kindness,  and encouragement of this remarkable team of players has long been a strength of this game.There must be a reason why we keep coming back to  check in with  one another. I think it is because for better and worse we are a family.

Writing along with this team has been a  joy and continues as a warm memory. If this game enjoys a comeback I hope to be among you.

Wishing my writing friends happy days. Hoping Mav is his old self soon.

Fondly,
Joanna

My word, been away from RPoL so long now that I missed all those replies.  RL sucks sometimes.  Hope it clears up for Mav, regardless of whether this game starts up or not anew.

I will say again, I pray for Maverick to come to deal with what he needs to and to come back to us.  I know how hard RL can be.  I'll be waiting out here and perpetually hopeful. :)

  Merry Christmas Mis Amigos. I hope you are all well and may the approaching New Year be kind to ya'll. :)

Merry Christmas to you as well, and to everyone.  :)

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of my friends!

HI GANG!!!!!

Hope all is well in yer worlds.

Let's cut to the chase....  ;)  I'm looking for a game to join with regular posting. A Pathfinder low level (no higher than 4th, but gestalt rules would be Kewl) game. Posting at least every other day with a good group.
I'm open to other games too, if ya know of something give me a yell.  :D

Still here, but only if my writing partner (Clementine) comes back too

In reply to Taron Bayne (msg # 534):

I don't know of any Pathfinder games but there are a couple of games I'm enjoying right now that are active (compared to the dead D&D types).  Roommates Wanted and Welcome to Stillwater I believe are still looking for characters so you might take a peek there.

I am alive, but very low level of activity, but it is good to see you guys around still.  Good hunting, Taron.

I have started a Wild West Sandbox Game.

Come check it out.

I'll give it a look. I used to love Boot Hill. Thanks for sharing with us.

Hi All. I don't know why I'm writing this, maybe it's just for me but I know more than a few of you have known Maverick for awhile and not only played in one of his games but shared time with him in other games. For those of you who did not know or it slipped your mind, Maverick and I Brothers. It is with a heavy and hardened heart that I wanted to let you's know that Steve (Mav) has Rode His Last Trail. He passed away on the 8/17 of gastric cancer. We just found out in May a couple weeks b4 his 54th Birthday. It hit him hard but he Didn't Go Down Without A Fight.

I am so sorry to hear he passed and you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.  I lost my dad in December 2015 to pancreatic cancer, diagnosed just three and a half months earlier.  It was fast and hard too so I sympathize completely.  Take care of yourself and I send loads of hugs.

Mu condolences...

I am so sorry to hear about his passing.  I will always fondly remember the times I spent in his games.  Please do take care and thank you for letting us know.

'Mav' gave so much and we are grateful.  My prayers to you and his family.  I hope he meets Rebecca and all he touched.

Shame about Maverick, and its a shame we weren't able to re-boot the game.

It seems fitting at this time of Thanksgiving that I express how grateful I am to everyone in this game. We did have fun. Most of all, of course, Mav for all his hard work over the games, over the years.

Love y'all

Amara

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL MY USA FRIENDS!!!

Gobble 'Til Ya Wobble :D
