Eorling Mead Hall Planning/Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

littlemanpoet · 06-07-2006, 04:00 AM

After yesterday's difficulties I'm not ready to write a post on the Eorling Mead Hall. I'm not sure I can work with Marenil's writer that closely. Trust needs to be rebuilt first. I need some reassurances.

Agh! I'm not mad! I have trust! I meant nothing personal by anything I said, and if you took it that way, I am sorry. Please do not delay the thread or punish others disconnected from this disagreement through your personal issues with me.

I'm allowed to disagree, and I thought the discussion yesterday was friendly and productive. I feel I understand where many of the writers here are coming from more fully, and didn't think to hear of it again. My excitement over the doings in this hall had returned in force...I'm sorry there's still an issue.

If you don't trust me enough to write with me, LMP, I'll leave for a time if that's your wish. All Eodwine has to do is nod or something at Marenil.

*Folwren looks very sadly and very shyly at lmp*

Please, lmp? Please write something. She didn't mean to make you mad. I'm sure she didn't mean to do anything like that.

I thought that was very productively managed. Every story has a few setbacks, most especially with collaborative writing. Surely, LMP, you remember the right snit I got into regarding the introduction of Roggie into ATM1? We worked it out and look, we've finished game one, moved on to game two, and a challenge we faced turned into a pivotal role in the story. A legitimate concern has been voiced here and it seems to have been dealt with in a way that appears acceptable on all sides. Unless there remains an issue with it that hasn't been voiced? With the group we have here, all ages and personalities working as one to create something not only fun to write but great to read, I'd hate to see hard feelings cloud the process or the result.

Now, if there's anything I can do to provide a bit of comfortable middle ground?

There appeared to be baseless assumptions that looked like personal attacks and aspersions on my character. Apparently that was debating method, and, apparently, during an already bad day, I misread them. I'd like to think so. In fact, none of what I've reread of your posts, Jenny, seems as bad as it seemed yesterday.

Therefore: Jenny, I will give you the benefit of the doubt. Please do the same for me. If that's agreeable, we can move on.

Lovely. I'd like to think this is finally behind us. Onward and upward!

Feanor of the Peredhil · 06-07-2006, 10:33 AM

Very good.

On a different note, I don't see myself posting on the game thread in the next week or two. Apart from entertaining guests and several other things, I'm starting a new job and dealing with the looming death of my great grandmother. I hope Saeryn and Degas (or Farahil) aren't needed.

Jen, feel free to write Farahil, if you're comfortable with the idea of it. He was going to ask her to return for safety reasons and big brotherly ones, but you beat me to it.

Ye Impish One, feel free to write Saeryn. You know her well at this point. Degas... well... he's just Degas. We can save that Talk until I'm better able to participate in it.
