Everytime I think there seem to be idle evenings coming forwards in my calendar they get filled with this and that needed to be taken care of.

Or they just plain evaporate unexpectedly.... Wow, Nogrod! Sounds like your living my life!

Yes, I agree. I'm not ready to give up. And have another simple post for Carl in mind, but haven't gotten around to putting it in words yet. Sigh...wish that life could hold on long enough to give me a bit o' play time!

I would also like this story to continue if that is possible. I am rusty as the blazes as far as writing goes and am trying to crank out a post for a story in the Shire. Let me try to get something up in the next few days.

P.S. Maybe we should all go on strike in our regular life and demand better hours and working conditions!

No, I didn't think everyone had completely given up on the game. But I have been in abandoned RPGs before (quite frustrating), and after a month of no posts, I was getting worried.

I can understand the whole RL situation as well...back in school, while I have had quite a few free days lately, there are some days I can get really busy too. And my freetime will only decrease with each month as it draws closer to the end of semester (that's when the all-nighters begin).

In spite of all our busy schedules, hopefully we can manage to bring this RPG back on its feet sometime soon.

*peeks in*

Sorry, I am alive. I can give excuses, but...why bother.

I'm kicking my butt back into gear in the RPing world, so I'll do my best to get posting again...

I absolutely love this game, and I too could not give up on it.

I need to have Khamir react to seeing a little Orc kid, and I'll do that very soon, promise.

Is there anyone around anymore?

What do you think if I make a post to get this going?

With your possible admission I could write something to turn this into something that moves again.

Who's around anyway?

I have until the new year time to sit down and to write in all peace without too many RL hindrances so I'd appreciate your answers in a day or two.

Are you ready to give me free hands to make this go further with a sweep or do you have some reservations what certain characters would not do (I would of course try to handle all the persons as true to their earlier postings as I could).

I just thought we should really make this alive again and I can try to do it with changing the situation.

Nogrod,

I am still around, but you may do whatever you need to with my characters - if it is necessary.

I took a quick look at the activities of those people who have written here somewhat actively... which is a relative thing as the last entry in the game itself is 3½ months old...

It seems that everyone else but Durelin and Tevildo have been around quite lately. I think the problem is that we are missing the orc-females (Undómë and Regin) and there seems to be a general confusion as to how things would start unfolding.

I try to come up wirth something. If what I write is okay to you let's kick this going once again... and if you dislike my solutions I can either modify them or delete the whole thing and try again differently.

I try to use those NPC's as much as I can but I'm afraid I need to lend some of your characters as well to make things believable. I'll promise to be careful with them.
