Checking in with the Team - I'm considering shutting down the 'War for the Crown' campaign. I think this Adventure Path is particularly ill-suited to Play-by-Post versus in-person gaming. Each Social Round takes us a couple weeks at least to resolve, and even when we get to Act II, that is about doing Political maneuvering to weaken the Count's power and eventually take over (Act III). Interesting stuff, but I don't see us getting very far in before getting frustrated.

Thoughts? If the Players want to keep going, I like the Adventure Path generally and am willing to continue.

I hate to say that you might be right. What if we put it on pause for December and polled interest in January?

I'd be fine with that. Things are always super slow around the Holidays anyway.

Too slow pace is very much a problem and compounds, the longer distance between my own posts (which is partially my responsibility) the harder it is to get into the character and care about him and the story.

Probably will need to do something like Tetnak's 2 day rule to put this back on track.

If y'all are willing to commit to Vardaen's 3-day rule, I am too.

I think a 3-day rule is fair. Also, I would say for me, at least, I had some uncertainty as to how some of the social mechanics worked, which initially caused some in-game paralysis for me.

I also have to adjust my build at the next level, so we'll get better. 3-day rule sounds alright to me.

You on board for a 3-Day Rule too, @Zorbeltuss?

@RorytheRomulan - You'll level up after this Act, and I am open to reasonable rebuilds at any time anyways. If something really isn't working out how you thought it would, I'd rather we fix that sooner, rather than you having to suffer through for an extended period.

Yes, just need to figure out what to do with even more social rounds.
