Your post count is impressive, which is obvious, and if anyone inquires, I can attest you're a good player ;) .  Also, everybody you've played with probably can attest you run good games, too, and that's if anyone bothers to check at all, which most people don't.<br/>All of this matters in an online community, though, in my experience.<br/><br/>As for botching RL diplomacy checks, hey, I know enough people that botch those regularly, and some of them have a PhD or better in Diplomacy or Political sciences ;D! Happens to everybody, is all I can say.<br/><br/>And thanks, I'd be glad to play, too.<br/><br/>Now, on to the sweet part with the XP :P! I don't think this scene was less important than the last.<br/><br/>Aevala gets 4 XP for participating rougly as much as last time, as a good-bye gift. Also, 1 bonus XP for the dance descriptions, since I liked them, for a total of 5 XP by the GM.<br/><br/>Adjia is playing her role of a well-informed, but too worried about her appearance. Also, MP was posting really consistent - I remember having to stop posting so we don't swarm the thread. Happened more than once, too. Congratulations, you get the maximum 5XP for participation, and 1 bonus XP for roleplaying! Adjia is fun.<br/><br/>Kalaj was less active, but still posted regularly. So, I think another 4 XP is in order here. And he played his role rather, shall I say, entertainingly ;D! Get 1 bonus XP for this, too.<br/><br/>Now it's up to the players to vote for XP rewards. The last time we did this was on page 7 of the OOC thread ;).
