I am all good - Telurion is following after Daveth like I already pointed out several times.
We were waiting for some time for the result of Ammus interaction with the wolves, since he posted it about 2 days ago.
After that post we have seen a boost of posts from Daveth and Belwar because it seems they share kind of the same posting schedules.
Since this is a PbP, and even though it is important to keep the game moving, care also needs to be taken to include all players - so I think Ammus should have time to post in accordance to the wolves' reaction (which was only posted today). I really like the fact we have frequent posters, and I can post much more frequently than I do, but I think in PbP you need to allow at least some time for all players to react, so I agree with kingdracon. Otherwise the game becomes lopsided, and conducted only by one or two players.
We can also agree on some sort of MO, in which we define a waiting period for someone to post, before moving things along, etc.
I agree that perhaps we should establish a set period of time to wait so that those who are regular contributors are not waiting and wondering. We have already had one player drop out of this game without giving the players the courtesy of letting them know. Also, as players, a brief heads up when we know we will be unavailable or when we plan on posting again would be a courtesy as well.
Per the recruitment thread:
I'll be asking for a bare minimum of 1-2 posts a day from everyone involved, but more posting is encouraged (and will make this extremely stressed law student very happy).
This is what I as a player signed up for and agreed to do by submitting my application. I believe that was the intent in including it in the recruitment thread.
Yeah, that would be great. I can’t guarantee more than 1 post a day from myself (decent DM posts take time and effort), but more is always possible. From everyone else, let us know if you’re not available to post for a little while.
Life happens. :)
I feel like we've been spinning our wheels here for a while, does anyone take issue with Daveth taking point and doing what he believes is best?

I certainly don't. Just wanted to make sure that nobody else wanted to post before I moved on.

Belwar scurried up that trash chute to hurry things right along lol.

I have insane Mondays but will usually post more often.

I’ll post again in about 20 mins and then should be able to post pretty regularly this evening.

Even if someone can post multiple times a day, does not mean they can do it in one go - hence my suggestion to give them time to react.
But hey, it is all good on my end - game on!
Perhaps we should roll initiative for Ammus?

I'll do it in a few hours if the need arises.

Is this how the cookie crumbles?
I am going to withdraw from this one to focus on the campaigns I am running. Thank you kingdracon for running this one for us all!

Sorry to see you go Dylanthalas, I liked Daveth and your proactive attitude in the game.
I am hoping the game continues, otherwise it seems I am cursed to not even get a chance to learn to play D&D5e...
Bump. Are we still online?
I’m so sorry for vanishing. I got insanely busy with this final paper and totally forgot about D&D. We’ll pick up again later today or tomorrow.
DM: In the Shadow of the Mountains: Lost Mine of Phandelver
We will start again this afternoon! :)
DM: In the Shadow of the Mountains: Lost Mine of Phandelver
kingdracon, did you not notice Dylanthalas has left?
Ammus has not posted in several days, even before you stopped.
Haven't heard from Belwar in some time also.
I’m still around. No activity in the IC thread so I haven’t felt the need to post.
