Hey everyone!
Glad to see you folk are exited about our progress.
Unfortunately, Sunday's game didn't happen as more than a few of our six player characters didn't show up until it was far too late.
Unfortunately, Silverwerret makes a valid point on the issue of attendance and I realize that RL happens, but the level that it happened was weird. Only one player looged in initially, then another showed up late.
The two that were now on were part of a group of three that couldn't make it to the first game.
The solution seemed simple enough: run for them as a catch-up.
We were still missing one of last weeks no-shows, so I told the first two, "Give him ten more minutes and if he doesn't show, we'll continue without him." Ten minutes later and the late player was no longer comunicating and eventually logged out. One other person long in 45minutes before the game would have been over and another 15minutes after. I still have not heard from two of the players.
This is... Frustrating, to say the least.
