I've been considering a third group, but haven't completely made up my mind on it.  Part of that was that I was seeing an increase in characters and interest.<br/><br/>I initially was hesitant about running two games at once because I was additionally running other games on another forum and in a couple of games here. I've essentially decided that Delvers Company is my big project on Elliquiy and I'm putting my time that I get a chance to be on towards that.  I don't want other players that are staying in to be concerned that I'm going to be spread thin.  The reason that we didn't start on Monday is that Bonds were not anywhere near complete which is on me, but I've made clear that my weekends are essentially post-less and was checking in before then.<br/><br/>I personally don't think that this group is hitting a hitch.  The players that are dropping out had both previously expressed concerns to me that the game may not be hitting their genre preferences.  It's totally fine for people to not play in a game that doesn't hit what they are looking for and I wish both Dhi and Aribeth the best in finding games that /ARE/ to their preferences.  I don't think that this game has ever been a perfect match for them, there is a tradition of levity to Delvers Company that I want to keep.  In some ways, I think that we are all lucky that we didn't get further than this, a game getting an encounter or two in then dropping players is worse off than one just stuck in longer recruitment.<br/><br/>I want these games to have players that are interested and invested.  I think we're set up for some really fun stuff with the remaining characters and I'm going to see if we can't pick up another player or two from recruitment.  If anybody else is considering dropping out, please let me know so that I can recruit an appropriate amount of people!  That said, I hope that Mira, pdragon, and Vergil are feeling good to go!
