(In case the game actually starts progressing faster, and my ausence starts to matter: I'll have to leave for an entire week, you should not expect anything from me until then, but after that, things will return to normal from my part.)
(Welp, I'm back. The DM has left us alone before in this same manner, it's getting a bit boring to have this happen all the time, but it's not any news to anyone that they would delay this, I believe. I don't know what it is that keeps them that busy, but I sure hope it stops soon, because I liked the setup we had, the characters, the plot, but it's getting hard to have it deliver anything in return...)
(yeah, it is very weird, but for me this is becoming common with dms, i had to get a replacement dm for one of my other games. this was my favorite game that im currently running so its disappointing its so slow and/or stopped.)

DMing "Gallia Campaign 1".
Looking for a new game, if you need a player private message me.
i understand these things take time, the DM could have personal circumstances that keep them away. What do you guys want to do, leave the thread open ? Find another DM ? or disband the group to the ether (which would be a shame i felt we had something going here)
I believe both ideas are valid (both as in, the first two, for the third, please no. I'll not be the one disbanding this group, the group would have to disband itself to see me out of it.)
We can wait on the DM to return, which may be quick, since it already happened of them appearing as soon as we complained, or it may not, in which case, we can still...
...Call a new DM, which could be a problem since there's no way to keep going with the story on the same way before, but it doesn't matter all that much, since we didn't even know where that place was to begin with, so we can keep going with a different idea from the original just as well. After all, this was about the characters, and their connections, which won't change, unless we want to.
To be clear, I'm of the opinion that we wait, and then, in case that doesn't work, we go for the second option.
I'm not trying to throw samurai out because they were too late, I'm just saying that choosing a new DM shouldn't be considered as a definitively "no" option, since in emergency, it works.
I'm for waiting, too. At least for a little bit longer. Like Pertuie said, this has happened before and once we started wondering where the DM was, they came back. So maybe this means they should be back soon? Hopefully?
If it gets to be too long, though, finding another DM could be a good option.
So, sorry for being late. I could say things about starting my new job and it’s been hard to get back here to play, and such. But, it doesn’t matter. I’m just sorry you’ve been waiting.
I’ve resigned to just updating while at work.
Thanks for sticking it out. If you’re still in, I am too. I’ll get an response to what you said to Renfeld soon.
Though, that was surprisingly predictable... And actually, we kinda spelled out our prediction (mine and Peachy's) you'd return as soon as we asked about you, and it once again, worked. Sorry, I just find that amusing.
On a serious note, I'm really glad you're back, but I'll keep what I said about this being annoying sometimes. I know it's difficult, and I really believe you can't do anything about it - since I do think we'd have noticed any change if you could - so I'm not putting the fault on you, I'm just saying I'm bothered by outside circunstances that just make me sad they're there. I wanted so much this to play normally, I'd love to develop Elery's character, I'd love to see the other characters' development, the plot as well, but on this speed, we aren't getting a lot done in way too long expanses of time, which is disappointing, but if it's either that, or leaving, you bet I'll stay and do it that way.

(i hope our dm is just busy and hasn't left, cause in one of my other games our dm just left without saying anything.)

Ditto, but the fact he's not signed in since Oct. 9th isn't a good sign.

It's unfortunate, you guys put some work into the backstory.
yeah, and i liked our characters, and the situation was getting exciting.

im willing to wait for the dm, cause whatever replacement dm has no way of taking the story where it was going, since this is homebrew.

I'm in for the long haul.

if you guys really want to find a new dm to get the game moving again, i will tag along, but i am fine with waiting for the current dm to return.

I am glad as a group we have decided to wait, the best course of action I feel. Hopefully we will continue with the story soon.

Uhh… Hey guys…

^Yup, that what Karino said.
Though, that was surprisingly predictable... And actually, we kinda spelled out our prediction (mine and Peachy's) you'd return as soon as we asked about you, and it once again, worked. Sorry, I just find that amusing.

Appreciate the understanding and predictions. And the dedication. Hopefully I can reward it shortly.
