I am not sure what the GMs have planned, so I am going to ask about this one before I even suggest it in the thread. Would it be acceptable for Oroka to have a contingency plan of travelling through a different dimension where the door is unlocked, but the mausoleum is filled with undead or something instead of Paladins, with the intention of rejoining the rest of the group by going back to their own dimension after travelling to their relative location in the alternate world? (Wow I extend my sentences with way too many commas)

Character bloat. Divide up the action into groups of four or five players. Too many conversations happening simultaneously. Have groups go on different side quests and make new threads. That'll make it more digestible.

(Of course if the majority isn't having a problem then maybe it's fine but I'm at least the third person to complain.)

Why so hostile? He's just stating what he thinks isn't going right and what he thinks can be done about. No harm done.

Players being able to argue with the GMs is a fundamental right.
GMs overruling any argument made a player is also a fundamental right.

That's a question you should take to the discord.

Gonna side with Pancaek on this one. Rose was giving a helpful suggestion, and as much as I doubt we're going to do what they're suggesting, you can't get all critical with them about it. Arguing with, and suggesting things to, the GM's is a fundamental right of the player, just as it is a fundamental right of the GM to enforce the GM fiat. We haven't done this yet, and I hope we don't have to. This was a reasonable suggestion on rose's part, a helpful tip, not telling us how to run the game.

It's okay I wasn't offended, thanks though.

Right, I don't really want to, but chances are I'll be bowing out of this game. It's my fault for joining something in the games and roleplaying subforum that updates multiple times a day, really. Pretty much all of the GM updates are after midnight for me, so I can't really stay awake for them. I'd like to continue playing, because it's hella fun, but my spot would probably be better used by someone who can post more than once every 5-6 gm updates. I'm basically standing braindead for most of whatever is happening, which doesn't help anyone.

Shall I do a recap after I go to work, then subsequently finish working, go home and then get back to this computer?

If you feel like it, that would be appreciated. I kind of stopped reading this morning after I saw that my attack failed and I probably missed the entire fight.

"Oroka here! On the last episode the battle outside the mausoleum was beginning to look like it would be a pretty intense battle, until some mysterious stranger came and struck down the enemy leader. At the loss of the knights leader, the enemy began to get careless."

"I planned all of this of course. Why would I lie?"

I'm going to leave as well. It's a great concept, but I'm not a good fit for it. Sorry
