Along the same note as Bethberry -

We need to keep this game moving. At the most we've got five or six people actually around to post. We've had so many holdups, and while some of them are understandable, I think it's gotten to a point where we're stalling constantly. Only two of the original game founders are around, and we need to have someone to steer this game to a successful end...soon.

The game started in early April, and we're halfway to December. That's about seven months for a game that was supposed to take three. We've lost so much steam, but we need to complete this game with what we have. If we don't complete it soon, no one will have the desire to finish it at all.

What I'm saying is that we need to buckle down and get things moving to an end. Brinniel, we understand that you are sick (get better soon, it stinks having the flu!), but holding a game back for two weeks is too long, at the rate we're going.

Child and I thought of a plan to get this game moving towards a quick, suitable end, since there doesn't seem to be much of a rush to get things done (no disrespect meant, of course). How would everyone feel about Child and I writing a few time-condensed posts carrying the good guys and bad guys to the climax of the game (the end conflict with the Easterling army and what the King decides to send with the good guys)?

Let us know, please! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
