This thread needs a hiatus methinks. Not looking forward to it, but time to stop, reconsider the methods and motivations behind the storytelling and mechanics would be beneficial to the overall quality.

Not going to tag you, but, DragonParadox?
Take a day. Just give yourself a break from this. ASWAH has been so much a part of your life for so long, but...I think just a day could help. Come back to us tonight or tomorrow morning. But getting away from this thread for a little while would help, I think.
We'll still be here.

Honestly without Azel the new direction will probably not be the same, not because I do not think that direction was a good one but the decisions I would make with his help are just not the ones I would make without him, he sees the world differently. I still want to write nuanced characters but the way I would do that would shift.
I hope things will be enjoyable for everyone and I promise not to make things too jarring in fact my main concern is that I might fall back into old patters, but even if that happens I will not try to talk to you guys though the narrative like that again. I am sharing a story that we all enjoy together not lecturing you.

S-s-smell the Prey, S-s-start the Hunt.
I sure as hell ain't leaving.
Between the plan to mug Tiamat, mug the Sultan of Brass, and the fact we still have yet to punt Robert like a football for payback there's too much left undone for me to leave.
Also I want to create the Plane of Beach Parties so I can put that on my resume.

Probably a good idea, but my stress reaction is writing. I'll see what I can do

God DAMN IT I WAS EXCITED TO READ THE UPDATE WHEN I WOKE UP. Why'd y'all have to do me dirty like that?

...would you feel better about not writing if you drop that one interlude you seem to have written and not posted?
Not asking for that, just wondering if you feel that will work for you

Hey guys, sorry if my comment earlier caused azel to leave again. I probably should have kept my mouth shut, it wasn't the time or place.

I never got to write that, I was talking about the plot in PMs.
Just in case I do end up writing today is there any really depressing part of the world you guys would like to hear about?

Figured I would chime in here, too. You're stuck with me, @DragonParadox, because I'm not going anywhere. ASWAH is where I spend my leisure time (and a lot of other time, too) and it's been amazing. There are always ups and downs, that's just a fact of life, and we'll roll with them like we always do.
Hang in there, DP. Take a break if you need to, or write like a madman if that's how you deal with stuff. We'll be waiting.

Could always write about that Elder Dark thing we headbutted, he sounds like a prick so the lands he rules are probably blood soaked nightmares.

"...and I see here that you were part of a joint project in creating the...quasi-elemental plane of beach parties?"
"That's correct."
"Could you tell us a little about that?"
"Well, obviously I can get into specifics, I'm still under NDA, but you need a good bit of hot sand to start with. We took that from the Plane of Molten Skies, after we'd murdered the Sultan of Brass - nasty fellow, uses souls as coins."
...
"And then we had to work out how to manifest servitors like the other planes do, that was a job and a half. The real issue though was working out how to deal with the afterlife problem."
...
"But at the end of the day, this chart clearly shows that we went with the right ratio of volleyball to tennis courts. Not that you'd ever convince the badminton players of that. There was almost a small war when..."
...
"Sadly, it's inaccessible at present, but give it a decade or two for Viserys to find an access point for this sphere and I'll let you borrow my pass for a few days."
*stunned silence*
"You're hired."

No need to post that, seriously I do not want to see you suspended. It was not any single poster than made azel quit, if that were the case I would be furious, he was just not enjoying the story anymore and things were being pulled in two different directions
As a favor to me edit that out please

It did not. Sorry for responding to your post at this moment in time and thus creating the impression that it did.
@egoo. Cease and desist. Like, right now. I know why and what you want to express with posts like this, but consider it a personal favor to me if the next time you write something like this, you read it again, take 10 deep breaths and delete it instead of posting it.
Also: Damn alert feature.

It's fine, I know he wasn't talking about me for half of it (since I was lurking for the last few times this happened).
The benefits of lurking, you can absolve yourself of guilt for stuff you weren't here for.

Which is fucking weird, I thought shit stopped being on fire last night.
It's not on fire. This has been a long time coming on Azel's part and quite frankly I don't think the last issue did more than push it along. As badly as I am feeling right now guys I do not want to spread it around. No sense blaming yourselves or each other.

Well, I thought things were settled yesterday.
In any case, while retconning the last update would be nice, I don't think my vote would change too much from what it was, tbh. Be blunt, lay out our reasons for doing it, and tell her to get Lucan and herself on our office tonight, to make their case and air out their grievances.
If they can't compromise, they can't compromise. We will find someone who can.
If they can compromise, good. I will be glad to help the Steven settle with the OG.
[X] Ret-con the last update to give you guys the chance to speak up better
Just so some crazy retconning of the arc doesn't happen,

I'm just about all stressed out honestly. I spent most of yesterday freaking out and now I'm kind of feeling a lot calmer?
