Also, any comments on the module so far? Are Beegred, Skameros and Rodolfo still invested and want to continue? Now's the time to let me know, before I go and recruit more people to join.
I forgot how quickly combat rounds go with only 3 players. Although with what the RNG did to me, I wish I had waited a little longer, to get different random seed.
I am most comfortable with a party size of 4-5, so a little recruiting sounds good to me. (I don't have anyone in mind.) If you don't want the hassle (stick with 3) or you want to go big (party of 6-7), I'm happy to do that as well.
(3 will be rough, as I think most modules and hardcovers don't have good suggestions to scale for small parties.)

I agree that with 3, your party might get in trouble with some of the random encounters. Personally, I think a party of 4 is needed minimum. However, with PbP, the more people you introduce, the more waiting everyone else has to do. So I think a party of 4 is a fine balance between keeping things going at a nice pace and having enough party members to survive.
I mean.....is waiting really a big deal with this game? it has been like 2 years and counting :P and I don't even think we're in the Abyss to get out of it?
I'm good with whatever everyone agrees on :) this is the lil PBP that could hehe
Hmm. If I have 4-5 players and each player takes 1 day to respond once it's their turn (and I don't tend to post as much on weekends), then it becomes 1 week per round during combat. Worse case, that is. I fear that people will lose interest and stop checking the threads if that much delay happens between their actions.
Bonus points if you can write English half decently (but your character can speak mangled English common/undercommon if that is what you want to roleplay)

Ouch - shots fired at Beegred and Skameros :P
I'd take offense, except I remember this scene from "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly". (I'm using Tuco as Beegred's avatar.)
Tuco: (trying to read) "See you soon... idi... id..." Blondie: "Idiots"... It's for you.

@Skameros: Are you moving? Dodging?
Sorry didn't realize we were waiting on me - I'll just stand there and use the dodge action

Well I suppose if you kill us here we don't need to continue :P

Elementals be accurate, yo!
Comments on the module so far? This was Out of the Abyss, right? :)
It's been OK. We've done surprisingly well in the last few fights, far beyond my expectations. It helps that we've leveled up somewhat as well.
By the way, did we receive XP for the drow in the large room full of them?
The petrified drow? Yes, HERE.
If you're all still interested in going on, then I think we'll need at least one more player.
Before I open up recruitment, are there any individuals you know that may want to join?
No comments about recruitment?
Rodoflo cast Haste on Skameros again.
@Beegred, your turn.
@Skameros you can act after Beegred without waiting for me to update the main thread.

The NEW RECRUITMENT THREAD, if you want to contribute or comment about any of the applicants.
TBH - I'm amazed we're still going

:D
Something like a charming paladin would be great - some healing, some tanking, some damaging and some actual charismatic verbal ability :)

Right now there's one player offering to play a Paladin.
There's also a Celestial Warlock, which is CHA based, can heal (right?) and do damage. Just not so much on the tanking.
