Cole's dead-dead right now right? Any of y'all have any magic to work on his corpse, or should we take his stuff and press onward.

What I don't get is, how come people start games, and they die nigh immediately right after? Seems to be a pattern where hardly much happens, and then the campaign just abruptly ends (this one, Koumei's, Franks economy thingy etc).
What I find wrong w/ 4th edition: "I want to stab dragons the size of a small keep with skin like supple adamantine and command over time and space to death with my longsword in head to head combat, but I want to be totally within realistic capabilities of a real human being!" --Caedrus mocking 4rries

"the thing about being Mister Cavern [DM], you don't blame players for how they play. That's like blaming the weather. Weather just is. You adapt to it. -Ancient History

If there hasn't been investment and momentum, people can just happen to not be bothered to post enough times in a row that the thread dies. Even if there's been momentum, investment on everyone's part is key, one slowed down turn can be a death penalty to the game.

Ancient History's games run to completion, I figure the biggest factor is the DM prodding everyone along if things slow down.

It would also help if this weren't a rules clusterfuck.
