DM Jon picking up the totem pole and leaving for Egypt
« on: July 21, 2009, 12:50:56 AM »
Well gentlemen, I have good and bad news.

 The good news is I've gotten a job as a tourist guide in Egypt. One year contract. I'm going to Sharm el Sheik at the tip of the Sinai peninsula. Come visit me  ;D

 The bad news is this will give me substantial less time to help out as DM. I'm leaving by the 6th of august.

 I'll still be around somewhere, but you're now all responsible for keeping the game going in my spirit. This means cutting Bjørn all the possible slack you can give him and helping out.

I'm expecting you to both think of yourself as well as your favorite DM when you act.

1. If an answer isn't immediately forthcoming, give it some more time. Then resend. Take nothing for granted, including the DM's time.
2. Place as many of your questions as you can in the DO (within the rules obviously). Not in OoC emails.
3. Tune down your expectations for adventures, there probably won't be more than one or two each turn and only the really story heavy ones will get special attention. The rest should go in your DO's.
4. Define it VERY clearly in the subject of your e-mails if you want a DM response.
5. If in doubt, ask in the forum or the other players before you ask Bjørn.
6. Make up your own list of proactive rules and post it here  ;D


 Cheers guys! Have fun!

Hi Jon,

you were of great help in the game. I send you best wishes for your new job.


Is Bjorn thinking to look for a substitute of Jon?

Maybe.

I'm already getting great help with the P&H from Brandon, and most of you now have a good grip on the rules, so the immediate need for a replacement is not so great.

But looking forward I'll probably need a new aide de camp.

Congratulations. Hope you get to enjoy the sun and diving as much as possible.

On a more serious note, what will you do except lie on the beach with a laptop and write RoE e-mails?  :P

An amazing opportunity and one I am quite jealous of. You will be missed but I am sure you will be thinking of us all really when you sit on the sunkissed sands....

Nice.  Pick me up a piece of the Great Pyramid while your there. ;D 

Seriously though remember that while mummies don't have energy or level drain they can give you mummy rot which can suck just as much.

Ps.  Should we still cc. Jon on everything or not?

 You can keep on cc'ing me. I'll let you know if I'll be too hung up to be able to react at all. I don't really know before I'm there and stuck into the job.

 Thanks all! I'm looking forward to it - heat, sand and all.

 I'm renting it to my cousin and one of his friends. A spot might open at some point if you're interested...
