Re: Q&A

I think that the threads introducing the characters are great, and I love how most of them ended up into the Gas lantern. I think it might be good if you made a single thread for the Gas Lantern so we all can interact together, or at least have all the posts in one spot.

Re: Q&A

I'm already impressed by our GM's writing abilities and imagination!

I concur with Remi, probably be best if we all began posting in a single thread.

Looking forward to gaming with you all.

Re: Q&A

Until I actually wrote the posts, I had no idea what everyone was going to do. I was still getting backgrounds from everyone. Besides, I can lead a horse to water but I can't make it drink. Until I actually got a post from everyone, I wasn't sure you'd all go along. Once everyone gets there feet wet, I was planning on creating a single thread for everyone.

Re: Q&A

As of now, I do not have a solo thread.  Since I seem to be joining late, should I go directly to the club, or do you want me to wait and do a solo thread first? I am happy to do whatever fits best.

Re: Q&A

I'll start one in a minute. I was just waiting for you to fill out the character sheet.

Re: Q&A

Well, we've lost a lot of characters. Mostly, they just stopped posting. I sent an rmail to those that hadn't told me they were quitting, but I've only gotten a reply from Remi, and he's too busy to continue.

Presumably the lack of response means the rest are not longer on RPoL.

I hate to abandon the game, so I was thinking I'd give it one more try. I'll continue it through the holidays for those that are still here, and then early in the new year, I'll put up a new Player's Wanted thread to see if I get some more interest.

Any suggestions?

Re: Q&A

I am sorry we have lost players.  How many do we have left? Personally I am willing to keep playing.

Re: Q&A

Don't give up! The holidays slow posting in all games, either the GM or players spending less time basking in the glow of their monitors. The trick isn't in posting frequency but rather the game longevity. I have one I've been running since 2008, it slows, it goes, it slows, but it's always there. Players will appreciate the commitment :)

Re: Q&A

Is the ship in the hanger sitting on the ground or is it suspended in some way? I guess what I'm asking is, is there a gap to see and send things under the ship.

Re: Q&A

Yes, there is a about a 4-8 foot gap under the ship, as it's floating. It's a blimp-style airship, as the bag does not have a rigid structure. Various things hang down from the ship, though, so a clear line of sight isn't always possible.


I keep forgetting I have pictures up in the Game Map section

Main Game Map = lightning gun
Map 1 = Vril symbol
Map F = The Falcon PC ship
Map Q = The black ship that attacked The Falcon; only those who actually saw it can view the picture.
Map R = The black ship that was in Scotland, Graustark and is in the hangar next door.
