Sixth - I'm not resentful or angry with you, but to be honest I am/was annoyed.

Personally I disagree with you, but that's because I hate giving up in general and I haven't lost all my enthusiasm about this game yet. I believe this could still be great fun if everybody was active and somewhat enthusiastic. In this current state, I'm not so sure.

Valesse · 09-29-2007, 03:22 PM

First of all, AH! No! I live!

*hugs* Sixth, its alright to be human. Blogs are -incredibly- tempting places for that inner teenager to take control. If you've seen my lj, it'll tell you just that. Yikes. None of us have been saintly to this RP, but the fact that we keep coming back, apologizing for not posting should say something about how we feel about the game itself.

I don't want to start over again, like Thino (and, erm... my shot-in-the-dark fresh post I just made) said. Though it doesn't seem like much has happened, I don't believe the remaining players might not have as much of a connection. Eomer suggested the other players are lost in some manner or another-- (I'm not so sure about the killing bit, though it is dramatic and therefore strangely tantilizing)-- and if, by some manner of luck, they were able to return and re-join the game we could have their character found again or another new character introduced.

Now I know I did -somewhat- disappeared from BD (which didn't really help anyone's nerves here, I'm sure) but just so you know it has and will remain my homepage albeit my role changed from poster to simple lurker (and back to poster! Rawr!)

** Valesseka would never allow Jenfred to take her Gondorian, anyways. ;D

Haha, Valesse, I love your attitude.

Great to see you back.

I dislike giving up too, but I like to think there's a limit when it would be more beneficial to just stop, when we're just being "clingy". After hearing you two just now I'm not sure if we've hit it yet...

So -- has an agreement been made to continue the game? If so, who will begin posting?

Thinlómien · 10-05-2007, 03:01 PM

Well, there has been no agreement. Valesse has posted though. I think we should vote, everybody stating if we should or should not continue. And no grudges if someone disagrees with you...

I vote for continuing the game.

But if this continues, who's to be the game owner? Glirdan has left and we don't know when he's coming back, Crystal has resigned. I was made a co-owner at one point, so should I (nominally) continue as such?

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 10-06-2007, 08:34 AM

If the game is to be continued, there will be at the most 4 players (it seems), so it will be drastically altered. We'd have to decide how to deal with the players who have vanished, and how to work this into the story.
