Time to archive the forum, Av.
And ban Xar.

Everyone knows that I did the impossible. I won Pantheon and Xar was so distraught by it that he fell off the face of the earth, which has reverted to flat so he could. Sorry guys. :P

Jeez. Okay, new rule:

The NEXT time Mox destroys Pantheon, he has to tell us about it immediately afterwards, so we can get P5 started sooner than a year later.

Also, since I think he's done it twice already, how's about we all just hunt down Mox first thing P4 starts up... the game might go longer.

I like that! Perhaps one of you GM's would simply start up P4 yourselves. Might be another year before Xar gets back otherwise!!

I couldn't handle tiny, little Aesir. I don't blame Xar (Though I curse his name. Just did in a txt today, in fact.), and I'm sure not gonna try it.

I miss Aesir.
And Vanir.
Although I liked the storyline I had going in Aesir a little better.

Chatted a little with Xar a couple of days ago. He does want to finish out P3, but says it will probably take awhile. And he feels guilty for not finishing the current turn. I asked him to stop in anyway, as we miss his interaction. But y'all can see by the index of who all has visited the Watch just how effective that was. :cry:

I hear there's a pretty cool Pantheon-like game that just restarted. It's called Agro... Acreous... Crop Police... eh, something like that, anyway. Xar even told me he thought the first version was pretty cool. Last I heard, there were still about 5 slots left open. The GM's a bit of an ass, but...

And yeah, I miss Aesir/Vanir as well. I had as much fun creating and fleshing out those characters as I did most of my Pantheon characters.

Seriously?? Wow. I'm surprised to hear that, considering how frequently things didn't go as you'd hoped. Anyway, sorry folks. I wish I had more GM in me. heh.

But more frequently they did. :mrgreen: Besides, it's a players job to gripe and moan. It's the GM's job to ignore it. ;)

Me: Do you have any GM in you?
Fist: No.
Me: Would you like some?

I also had quite a lot of fun with Aesir. Erd never even had conflict with anybody, except when he took a swipe at Murrin, as he was quitting anyway. But the worldbuilding was getting really fun, after that many turns. I had some really spiffy ideas planned. Vanir... never really had the time to get rolling. I think it would have been fun with more cycles to it, but whatever... Fist sucks. We knew that going in, so we can't really complain when he demonstrates the fact to us.

Nope, sorry, but flattery won't get Aesir going again. :D

It might not. If both [Syl] and I threatened not to process your turns until we'd gotten back Vanir results... would that be enough to get it going again?

Roses are red.
Violets are blue.
Some games update regularly;
And others don't.

I felt a need to do something ... perhaps not the best ... but at least the acknowledgement that an age has obviously passed :(
