Aye, while I enjoy IC posting as much as the next man (the next man beeing another BR-roleplayer), in the end, when you feel like getting bogged down, or that things just arent moving along, I tend to go to OoC-IC mode.
That is the mode, where things happen quicker, and you can still have some fun out of it, without having long conversations full of fancy words that basically means nothing (ie. almost anything I say).
Basically it goes along the line of:
"OoC:
Kaven suggests that the army set up camp at the base of the hill out of sight, and will personally scout the surroundings.
Guards should be posted at various points, and the men propperly fed before the battle in the morning. Kaven will spend some time talking to the soldiers, complimenting their hard work and determination in the face of the enemy."
It's shorter, and although not as fun as writing the long speech, gives a general idea of what the character says and does. It's a great way of wrapping up stuff for an adventure too, instead of nitpicking about the details, trying hard to come up with other words for "level", "prepare spells" and "let's open up a can of whoopass on those S.O.B.'s".
