Good Luck Blue

EDIT1: Woohoo! Posting delay is going to disappear. Computer I sent in for repairs is coming back in a few days.
EDIT2: Yay. Posting delay is no longer an excuse for me. Computer is back.

Update: So there is not a single reason for me being slow and not posting recently - it's a confluence of several things:

I have an *very* important project that I need to complete in the coming weeks that is taking a lot of my free hours - and it's a failure is not an option type of project.
It also happens that this is one of the busier times of the year for me as far as normal work load goes, and that is holding true.
And finally, someone I know well is suffering from life-threatening health problems, and that is stressful, even though it is not directly happening to me.

What that adds up to is that until things become less hectic later on in the month with at least two of those problems being resolved, and crossing fingers that the last one is resolved positively - anytime I'm even starting to think about getting a post in here makes me just super guilty thinking I could probably be making more responsible use of my time. And that makes me not in the mood to post smut, and maybe also not take the hour or so that it normally takes me to resolve a well thought out post.

That being said, I AM going to come back and post for you. And who knows, it may be sooner than expected, as I might find a moment of inspiration and am in desperate need of a distraction from my worries, but I figure that I should probably be transparent about things, just so I'm not annoying you three. I know things like this can kill a pbp game, but I'll try to keep popping in when I can.

Feel free to write me some PMs about the game and your characters and directions you're thinking of, or things you'd like to see or explore once the pace picks up again. I'm happy to check and make quick responses to messages.

I believe in you Blue! Kick that projects ass and get a bonus.

I hope for a good recovery from the health problems for that person :S.

Honestly, greatest praise I can give you is that, all things considered you'Re doing fine and should keep on doing what you're doing in the rp. Pirates storyline certainly did not disappoint. I think you have a talent for making players feel special, wich is rare and under-appreciated. I'd rather you finish the project and then return full force than power a thing out.

Update: Alive, slaying busy work, project kicking my ass big time, no other changes. For good or ill, by the end of next week I’ll know where I stand with those things. The goal is to be in a position to resume this game in the last third of this month. I know that this is crap news given we’re just through the first week, but that’s a realistic estimate. Assuming I still have a job by then, I’ll be comfortable describing busty Barovians again.

Why is the light at the tunnel receding?

Am still alive... in order to finish the project I had to put off a lot of work. Project's about finished. Now I need to scramble to do all that work. One more weekend of hell ought to do it.

Sleep? what is sleep?
