Let me put a save on the game thread for Peachblossom that I will try to get to Monday or Tuesday at the latest. That will at least get us started.

If I tried to write tonight, it would come out all gobbledygook.... I've had a flu shot and am reeling around almost as if I actually had the flu!

Mattius · 10-27-2003, 08:31 AM

Good news guys, I have an opening in my week- Tuesday night! I will read through the discussion thread and RPG thread before adding a post for the first time in weeks!

Child of the 7th Age · 10-27-2003, 12:46 PM

Mattius,

That is great news. I think it would be better if you didn't have to deal with my blank save, since you never know if I'll have it filled in by then.

So I am erasing it for now.... If I get time to do an actual post before then, I will certainly do so.

Helen, I will be sure to pick up off the Entwife cue in your post, so don't worry about a tie in. I'll make sure it's there.

By the way, when does this all have to be wrapped up?

Child of the 7th Age · 11-06-2003, 04:44 PM

Mattius,

I think a more basic question is whether it's going to be wrapped up at all? With the manpower we have, I do not see this happening.

There were 14 posts on the game thread between September 20 and today. I don't feel that's enough to sustain this game.

Peachblossom has surrendered and this particular battle should be coming to an end.

What's next?

Aylwen Dreamsong · 11-06-2003, 05:15 PM

My apologies for being completely absent while all this was going on. Things have been a little hectic lately, and I know this is a weak excuse but I apologize.

I'll try and get a post up tonight or tomorrow. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] We can pull this together, I know we can.

Child of the 7th Age · 11-07-2003, 03:18 PM

Aylwen,

I hope you're right. I'm certainly willing to try.

Child

Brinniel · 11-07-2003, 05:10 PM

I hate saving, but I have to get off the computer shortly.

Now that the battle is over, my next post will be on the aftermath, mainly focusing on the death of Endereth.

I should be able to fill in my save tomorrow afternoon.

I am...

Brinniel · 11-16-2003, 07:06 PM

Sorry, I didn't mean to hold that save for so long, but I've come down with the flu. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] Since I'm still sick and won't be able to post for about another week, I decided to delete my save. I just ask that you don't go too far without me, as I still would like to write some of the aftermath of the battle, plus the death of Endereth (I just feel that scene should come from Calen's point of view since she and Endereth were best friends).

Again, I'm terribly sorry for my disappearance.

VanimaEdhel · 11-18-2003, 05:13 PM

As this is the Barrow-Downs, I'm not particularly alive, but I am still here.

Mattius · 11-18-2003, 07:01 PM

Tee hee!! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Bêthberry · 11-18-2003, 07:19 PM

Since Brinniel has suggested you all go ahead and post, perhaps it would be preferable to see game posts rather than just discussion thread posts, although I do appreciate the effort of those who have posted here, in contrast to others who are lost on the ether.

This game is too good to be left to die. It must, however, be given momentum. Please start posting.

I would be very disappointed to have to retire this game to Elvenhome unfinished and I am sure that many of you would be also.

Aylwen Dreamsong · 11-18-2003, 09:02 PM

Along the same note as Bethberry -

We need to keep this game moving. At the most we've got five or six people actually around to post. We've had so many holdups, and while some of them are understandable, I think it's gotten to a point where we're stalling constantly. Only two of the original game founders are around, and we need to have someone to steer this game to a successful end...soon.

The game started in early April, and we're halfway to December. That's about seven months for a game that was supposed to take three. We've lost so much steam, but we need to complete this game with what we have. If we don't complete it soon, no one will have the desire to finish it at all.

What I'm saying is that we need to buckle down and get things moving to an end. Brinniel, we understand that you are sick (get better soon, it stinks having the flu!), but holding a game back for two weeks is too long, at the rate we're going.

Child and I thought of a plan to get this game moving towards a quick, suitable end, since there doesn't seem to be much of a rush to get things done (no disrespect meant, of course). How would everyone feel about Child and I writing a few time-condensed posts carrying the good guys and bad guys to the climax of the game (the end conflict with the Easterling army and what the King decides to send with the good guys)?

Let us know, please! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Bêthberry · 11-19-2003, 12:06 PM

It sounds like you and Child have come up with a very good plan, Aylwen. Nice work!

That's a very helpful post, Helen. Your hint here on the discussion thread is what the discussions should be about. Kudos.

Bêthberry

Mattius · 11-19-2003, 04:05 PM

I'll go for that idea, right after I have written another post.

[ November 19, 2003: Message edited by: Mattius ]

VanimaEdhel · 11-19-2003, 06:09 PM

Not to get redundant, but that sounds good to me, captain of mine! *salutes*

Mattius · 11-19-2003, 06:37 PM

Okay, so what are you guys going to write in?

Child of the 7th Age · 11-19-2003, 07:01 PM

Mattius,

In very broad terms, this is what we'll be describing:

1. The huorn's and Easterlings depredations on the countryside near Isengard and their subsequent retreat to the marshes north of Minas Tirith,

2. The remaining good guys get the King to send an army out with them to the outskirts of the marshes where the army from the East has camped.

3. The good guys are hiding on the edge of the encampment when the huge Easterling army including the Khan and Saelonia come in from the east.

For the most part, this will be basic narrative. I'll be working on #1 and Aylwen on #2. We'll deal with #3 after the first two segments are done.

I will compose and put my post up on the discussion thread, and Aylwen will eventually place everything on the game itself in the order she thinks best.

I am open to suggestions, ideas, corrections on my part of the narrative, especially on the part of those folk who are playing bad guys. I will gradually compose on the thread itself so check in and read. If you've got ideas, just post on the thread or send me a pm. (I will be dealing with broad action rather than individual characters for the most part.)

Our remaining month of action where we all hack out the rest of the story could perhaps focus on spying out the Easterlings to get an idea of how the good guys should attack, and then the attack itself? Then again, the good guys better watch their backs as Saelonia may send her spies into the marsh as well! The interesting part of this should be working out this action in the context of a marsh setting.

Any ideas, concerns?

Child

Aylwen Dreamsong · 11-21-2003, 05:42 AM

Hey Everyone,

This is so last minute, but my family has decided to make use of the week off of school and take a trip to MN to visit ailing relatives. I will be back by Wednesday, but I won't have much internet access.

Sorry it's such short notice!

Child, I'll work on my narrative post while on the plane or in MN. I'll also put up a save post for Brinniel before I go, so that she can PM me her Endereth post.

-Aylwen

Child of the 7th Age · 11-21-2003, 06:58 AM

Aylwen,

With the holiday next week and a number of houseguests expected, I will also need a while to get things together.

Hope your trip is productive.

Cami

Lyra Greenleaf · 12-19-2003, 05:27 PM

Erm, hi. Sorry I haven't been here! I've looked at this thread and the RPG thread, and I was wondering if you still need me? I'm here if you do. But I would understand if you don't.

Hello and welcome to the Barrow Downs, LadyLeigh. If you are new to the Barrow Downs and wish to join role playing games here, you should first check out The Shire. You can start by posting at The Green Dragon there.

You can also check out The White Horse Inn here in Rohan and The Seventh Star in Gondor, if you have extensive experience in gaming.

BUMP: Is this game dead or alive? Please just let me know. LinGalad's part in this game ends soon anyway, but if I need to write LinGalad's (and Kalir's) entire departure myself, I'd just as soon get it over. Thanks!

Child of the 7th Age · 12-20-2003, 12:01 PM

My schedule has been horrendous the last few weeks.

I haven't heard from Aylwen, but I will try very hard in the next few days to get my own summary post up.

Child

Child of the 7th Age · 12-23-2003, 07:25 PM

The Khan and his army have arrived in the marshes north of Minas Tirith. I know that Aylwen was out of town for some time, but I will let her know that I've posted and she can go ahead when she is ready......

Child

Aylwen Dreamsong · 12-23-2003, 08:54 PM

I'm back, back, back! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

My narrative is in the works, and will be up soon. Mark12_30, you don't have to fill in the save post, because it would also have to involve getting everyone out of Fangorn for when they split up. To make sure: LinGalad and Kalir are going to Kalir's home, right? I don't want to make a big mistake/mix-up!

Other than that, I'll have the "Good Guy Post" up soon!

-Aylwen

mark12_30 · 12-24-2003, 12:34 PM

Aylwen, that's right about LinGalad and Kalir. Let me know if you need anything. Thanks!

--mark12_30

Aylwen Dreamsong · 12-26-2003, 09:07 PM

Okay, my post is up. We can start the fighting whenever Child (or anyone else playing the good/bad guys) is ready. Mark12_30, if you want to make a post about Kalir and LinGalad going to Kalir's home, that's great. If not, that's fine too! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

-Aylwen

Also, if anyone sees any major problems with my post, let me know! And, umm, I made up a name for the King of Gondor since this is 1000 years or so after the War of the Ring. Hope that's okay!

Edit: Oh, Vanima, you could post about Kalir and LinGalad too, if you want. I didn't mean to single mark12_30 out or leave you out. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Bêthberry · 01-22-2004, 08:56 AM

Despite valiant good efforts by several gamers here, this game has continued to stagnate.

It has been over two months since any Game Manager posted on the discussion thread and a month since one posted on the game itself. None of the Game Managers participated in the efforts to plan a conclusion to the game and none has explained his or her absence.

It would appear that they have lost interest in the game and are no longer willing to see it finished. Thus, I am, sadly, closing the game and discussion threads. They will be moved to Elvenhome next week, where Mithadan can decide their fate.

If anyone wishes to discuss this decision, I will be more than willing to do so via PM.

What has been going on here. Where am I anyway? -Lady Leigh <font size=1 color=339966>[ 11:10 PM December 19, 2003: Message edited by: Lady Leigh ]

If you are new to the Barrow Downs and wish to join role playing games here, you should first check out The Shire. You can start by posting at The Green Dragon there. You can also check out The White Horse Inn here in Rohan and The Seventh Star in Gondor, if you have extensive experience in gaming.

LinGalad's part in this game ends soon anyway, but if I need to write LinGalad's (and Kalir's) entire departure myself, I'd just as soon get it over. Thanks! __________________ ...down to the water to see the elves dance and sing upon the midsummer's eve.

I haven't heard from Aylwen, but I will try very hard in the next few days to get my own summary post up. Child __________________ Multitasking women are never too busy to vote.

I know that Aylwen was out of town for some time, but I will let her know that I've posted and she can go ahead when she is ready......

[img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] My narrative is in the works, and will be up soon. Mark12_30, you don't have to fill in the save post, because it would also have to involve getting everyone out of Fangorn for when they split up. To make sure: LinGalad and Kalir are going to Kalir's home, right? I don't want to make a big mistake/mix-up! Other than that, I'll have the "Good Guy Post" up soon! -Aylwen __________________ ...Come down now, they'll say. But everything looks perfect from far away - Come down now! But we'll stay.

Let me know if you need anything. Thanks! --mark12_30 __________________ ...down to the water to see the elves dance and sing upon the midsummer's eve.

We can start the fighting whenever Child (or anyone else playing the good/bad guys) is ready. Mark12_30, if you want to make a post about Kalir and LinGalad going to Kalir's home, that's great. If not, that's fine too! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] -Aylwen Also, if anyone sees any major problems with my post, let me know! And, umm, I made up a name for the King of Gondor since this is 1000 years or so after the War of the Ring. Hope that's okay! Edit: Oh, Vanima, you could post about Kalir and LinGalad too, if you want. I didn't mean to single mark12_30 out or leave you out.

It has been over two months since any Game Manager posted on the discussion thread and a month since one posted on the game itself. None of the Game Managers participated in the efforts to plan a conclusion to the game and none has explained his or her absence. It would appear that they have lost interest in the game and are no longer willing to see it finished. Thus, I am, sadly, closing the game and discussion threads. They will be moved to Elvenhome next week, where Mithadan can decide their fate. If anyone wishes to discuss this decision, I will be more than willing to do so via PM.
