Re: Jungle Fever [OOC]
I think I may recruit another player - even if Linni does come back I think things just move too slowly with small groups. With a bigger group of say 6, it wouldn't matter too much if one player went awol whereas now we're stuck waiting for people to post which is never a good situation.
I think the problem might be that Linni and Fareeda never had to apply - I knew them from other games and liked their characters enough to send a personal invite. Maybe this is why they are more passive and not as interested in the game as they never had to do much work? I don't know.
I will say however that just because I know them from other games, does not mean I will allow the game to suffer because of them. Abbas and Jibril were chosen from over 20 applicants and our recent addition Lambrac was chosen from among 12 - lots of the people I turned down put tonnes of effort into their RTJs and really wanted to play - I will happily offer them the places of people that clearly aren't as bothered.
Sorry if I'm seeming a bit anal, it just annoys me as I'm putting huge amounts of effort into this game and a couple of players are spoiling it.
I know Jibril had to deal with something similar in his game very recently and it's something that happens all the time on rpol and PBMB games in general - you just have to deal with it - and I will.
Anyway, I'll put out my tendrils to see if I can find another player and if Linni is gone I might bring in a couple. Lambrac and Jibril, I know you run other games on here so if you know any decent, active roleplayers, be sure to send them my way ;]
Cheers guys and bear with me, we're hitting a few hitches right now but once we get a solid group formed out this game is going to be awesome, have faith.
