[OOC] Mount Olympus: The Meeting Place of Gods

[Eviltedzies]

So how is everybody doing? I'm currently waiting for an update as a holy man is about to enter a city and has no care in hiding his powers.
Oh the possibilities.....

[DaMavster]

Ask me tomorrow. Today is quite possibly the worst day of my working career. >_<

[DaMavster]

Ah, all better. >_< Just had a really stressful work day.

Anywho, that's not what you really were asking about:

My plotting and scheming necromancer just convinced a militia group to give him their tower for his own purposes using nothing more than a smooth tongue, Ghost Sound, and one well placed Blindness spell.

[Eviltedzies]

... did you make them think it was haunted and offer to "exorcise" the tower?

[DaMavster]

Nope. Infested with plague and plague bearing rats.

[Eviltedzies]

Hmm gotta love using the simplest tricks to obtain large rewards.

[Moridain]

Does Berida still exist? Or is study getting the better of you?

[TheMystic]

Study is unfortunately getting the better of me. I do not want to jerk anybody around and I will not be offended if anybody wants to withdraw. This is likely one of the slowest games on the site.

That said, if you don't mind the pace I can't bring myself to let go of these stories and will continue to update, though I can't see my frequency increasing in the near future.

[Moridain]

If I wanted a fast paced game I wouldn't be doing PbP. So long as there ARE updates I don't mind if there are gaps between them.

Perhaps more than once every two weeks though..?

[DaMavster]

So... coming up on two months now. Shall we assume the worst?

[TheMystic]

I honestly would forgive you guys if you wish to withdraw. As much as I wish to continue these stories I am clearly the one who is having trouble writing them.

When i first came to this site there was a game like that, with the GM posting once every few months, and it was probably better for everyone if the game had been given a formal close, instead of being strung out. So I'm going to do the responsible thing and do just that. I hope I can return one day with another game that has been better thought out from the beginning (instead of being started on the spur of the moment, which I think is the source of my block here, everything is too morphic).

I really have enjoyed gaming with you guys and your characters have been some of the best I've seen. I look forward to future endeavors.

[TheMystic]

... funny, I just realised everyone was online.

One last question, would you like me to unveil the other threads so that you might see what was happening, or would you prefer to keep it a secret?

[Eviltedzies]

I enjoyed playing with you if even for a short while Mystic. No hard feelings about closing the game. I know that feeling.
I would love to see what the other villains or heroes have been up to. =)

[Moridain]

Sad to see the game go. Sandbox games are hard, and having this many seperate threads in a single world is almost impossible.

Fun while it lasted, even if poor Berida never did get very far.

[DaMavster]

I've had to shut down a game or two in my lifetime as well. There's just a point where you know it's on life support and you have to say goodbye. If I was upset at you, I'd have to hate myself for doing it too.

Also, yes please! Unsecret away!
