All right. All four agree to speed things up. Got email from Wout with teh go ahead. So I'll do a big update for Monday.
John/Raban - Good comments (skimmed them). But this whole scene really wasn't planned agenda/outline wise. It was one of those side things as a npc followup but Unali jumped on it. :) Which is fine. But in the last 10 years I've seen how things get bogged down. Dungeon or building crawls take enormous time in pbem while it might only take a couple hourse on table. Look how many weeks this has taken. So as A GM I've learned that bogged scenes can lead to apathy and such. In the past I've seen us do a simple scene the full summer which would on table take just a hour or so. So as GM one needs to weight hte good nd bad scenes for good play.
In fact a dungeon crawl will come about so might as well save tht fun for all. When you have a divided action like this with only half doing things the others get bored. While it gives them a break I'd hate to lose someone from distraction. :)
So basically this helps speed things up for a non vital scene in the overall arc. Its like shopping in a market could take weeks so best to rush those things. That's all the reason I offered. I was up to doing it slow and cautious but offered it as a Speed Up.
That's the reason behind it.
Next event the hut has been changed..in fact slightly to speed things up but also to add some spice :)
Mark/Kell - Still reading posts catching up on your game...
Problem with next week is its my last 4 day weekend (M-Thur) until likely 9 months from now. Not my last vacation days but last big 4 day weekend. So as result going to rent a slew of dvds. Just hope I don't get distracted by the evil dvds too much...:)
Stand by
