I'm also toying with the idea of breaking everyone off into solo campaigns so that you can all move at your own pace. You'll have no interaction with other players, only with me. If we do this, you'll also have the option of having the support of a single NPC that I will control. Having an NPC makes things a bit safer, but it also absorbs some of your XP.

I would need buy-in from most of the players to do this, so this thread is for you to ask questions, and to vote yes or no on moving to solo play.

Right now the groups are about to combine into a single force and taking down the first mini-boss of the campaign, so if we do break out into solo it will be after this dungeon is completed.

In my experience, the best games are the ones the DM wants to do, I've never done a 1 to 1 but I would be happy to give it a go. It's easier to add people than to subtract sometimes.

Solo would be interesting, that could be quite a few story-line's to follow.  I am good for either.

maybe maybe not, would be fun to cross over into each other's story lines/cameos. stories running parallel and sometimes perpendicular with like goals could be a lot of fun.

The primary factor in considering solo play is the slow post rate we have from some of the players. I don't mind going solo, I also don't mind keeping you in groups. Slower post rates tend to drive players away, even when you mention in the game threads that the game was specifically set up with a slow rate in mind.

We'll take an actual vote after we finish off this dungeon (and see who's still alive). Think about what you want to do, though.
