Thomaslee's Ponyfinder Campaign Review - Page 11

Sighs, I will do what I can and keep up activity even if I must continue the roleplay by myself. I have sent nags, so hopefully that helps. I have been sending a awful lot of them though, which is troubling.

Admittingly though I fear that I may have to open the roleplay up to new players if current activity keeps up. I would prefer not having just one player, nor moving the roleplay forward by myself.

Why wouldn't you open the game up to more players? One of the reasons I haven't been eager to post is I'm completely alone since the only other PC has been hiding.

You are not playing by yourself. From what I see two of your Players have Posted in the Main Game today. One of your Players is a veteran here and a GM himself, so its not likely he will be going anywhere. The other Player may pick up pace so long as you do your part.

Don't fear it, just do it and fit them in as described: How to Include New Players in a Current Game.

I may not be going anywhere but I do find myself taking longer to reply without reason.

In my experience I've had to take over a PC quite a few times over the last two years. Sometimes they come back with a valid excuse or none, but mostly they just go. I expected it to be different for something niche like Ponyfinder, but it's not looking that way.

I find it's more reasonable to quietly move such characters to the background where they perform actions rather than talk.

It is a little after 11:00 pm but I thought I would make a quick reply before the day is done and I go back to bed.

I am relieved that I won't need to continue by myself, and that it wouldn't even be advisable to do so even if I didn't have active players. I will do my part to make sure both stay active and one picks up the pace.

Onto why I haven't reopened this to new players, I will do so now. All the details of such may not be finished up until tomorrow. My apologies for not doing so sooner.

Lastly, thanks for your works and advise, both JB and ICon. Also just saw that a notice had been sent telling role-players their GM was looking for them, thanks for that. Hopefully it helps.

Edit: Okay that is odd, I'm not seeing the edit button for the thread's original post.

Yes, and I can confirm the player in particular that you are concerned about did read it, so since there was no reply from him you can take that as a confirmation to move on.

Not sure what you are talking about here, is it in reference to this? If so, its only applicable to the Rules page.

Sighs, JB what am I supposed to do? My players have stop posting, the campaign is not moving forward, what can I do so that it doesn't die?

That's what happens when you abandon a game and then try to restart it, Players no longer feel obligated to keep up with it anymore. Your only resolve is to stop lamenting about players who are not Posting and work with the ones who are, even if it is just one Player you need to Post daily. You should also seek new Players and not be so dependent on what is here. All these things have related Threads: See Here for complete list.
