Re: Game Discussion

Looks like my return came a little to late. Beside the technical issue and school, one of the main reasons for my drop out is I really didn't enjoy playing as Davain. Playing a "goody two-shoes" really isn't my forte. Not that I don't relish the challenge, but I feel like I messed up some roleplay elements that alienated Davain. If the game is ending I would gladly join the new game as a character who isn't the head or heir to house, and if the game is continuing I would like to re join as a different character (I will remain a Bartheld to the end).

Hope school is going well, and I enjoyed the contribution you were able to make. Let's see if we can add some darker shades (of bitterness at holding back and remaining disciplined all his life instead of cutting loose?) to Davain in his departure and given him an appropriate send off, as you plotted out int he epilogue thread.

Sorry all - extended delay while I wait for the Doomtown Reloaded Kickstarter to get going. Apologies for the lack of communication and I'll see if I can ever pick this up again in the future. Intentions are to try for something, but lots of demands on my time at the moment.

Sorry again.

Thanks for the update. I'll stay tuned.

by **Reader** Sun Aug 06, 2017 9:14 am

I'll post an update on my plans before GenCon (which occurs 17-20 August) and hopefully the weekend after as I might have a better idea about the Doomtown Kickstarter by then. Smile

by **Gwyneth Drakeson** Sun Aug 06, 2017 10:17 pm

Excellent!

by **Loreia** Mon Aug 07, 2017 9:41 pm

It's been some time since activity dropped, and I thought this had gone out with a sigh, but I'm still interested if there's an active GM who has plans for the game.

by **Reader** Mon Aug 07, 2017 10:31 pm

Epilogues are still owed, just hadn't expected Kickstarter stuff to be delayed. Embarassed

Sorry! Aiming to give various players/PCs a decent send-off, nice to have some closure. Post GenCon I should be more available.

by **Reader** Sun Aug 27, 2017 9:07 pm

I live post GenCon! Doomtown Kickstarter goes live on the 5th of September, so I'll start working on some much delayed epilogue action...

by **Gwyneth Drakeson** Mon Aug 28, 2017 12:43 am

Yay! Thanks for keeping the updates coming.

No problem, getting a bit more time freed up now. Smile

Please sound off in this thread if you're interested in a much delayed epilogue...

by **Daveth Coldbrook** Tue Aug 29, 2017 1:04 pm

Interested.

Cheers troops. Aiming to get started soon. I've got a family thing on Sunday, but I'm plotting out how to tackle this with our participant list to show how previous actions affect the Dance and to give a few chances to swing key moments.

by **Gwyneth Drakeson** Wed Aug 30, 2017 9:48 pm

Cool deal!

I know Baelon would be interested too, but RL stuff has forced him offline. Don't take his lack of response as lack of interest. Sad

by **Reader** Wed Aug 30, 2017 10:14 pm

I'll email him directly, thanks for the reminder. Smile

by **Ser Walton Dulver** Fri Sep 01, 2017 7:06 pm

well, if in epilogue would be spot for Mighty Dulver, then of course I would be also interested to see how his story will end.

All are welcome to perform great deeds to perish in their pursuit! Or to wisely hide and suffer a long life in obscurity, far from history's pages.

by **Davain Bartheld** Sun Sep 03, 2017 4:15 pm

I would also be interested.

by **Reader** Sun Sep 03, 2017 8:14 pm

Welcome back!

As noted, the Kickstarter for Doomtown is on Tuesday so I'll be a little busy until then/just after, then it's go time!

by **Ser Walton Dulver** Wed Sep 06, 2017 4:43 pm

well, according to that, I have a question: is it temporary availability of You, Reader, or is it something what may be longer thing? Because seeing how many people are interested and still checking the forum, then maybe... Maybe instead wrapping up with epilogue, just restart the game under Your patronage? Just checking, as not asking that question would be a crime.

P.S. Sorry, if You already mentioned somewhere information about that, it's just that inactivity thing...

by **Reader** Wed Sep 06, 2017 7:09 pm

I hadn't mentioned and it is totally fine to ask!

I'd love to keep doing this game, it was great fun. However, I am now lead playtester for Doomtown Reloaded and with the pleasant surprise of the huge success of the Kickstarter for the next expansion that is likely to occupy my time for the forseeable future.

That Kickstarter (which I couldn't talk about at the time due to a non disclosure agreement) has now begun and is doing very well, which is good news overall but bad news for this game.

After all the water under the bridge, I do not see us picking up the pieces. I am all up for starting a new game in the same spirit, but that hinges on someone willing and able to run it.

by **Gwyneth Drakeson** Wed Sep 06, 2017 9:19 pm

Yeah, a fresh start would be needed I think. That said, I'd be good with starting something new if we had the group for it.

Congrats on the kickstart, Reader! Glad it's working out well!

by **Reader** Wed Sep 06, 2017 9:56 pm

Cheers Gwyn! We're pleasantly surprised by the response. Lots of hard work paying off far more than expected.

I'll look out for any successor campaign, might be able to play or act as an assistant narrator if people would have me.
