I wrote the scenario over the span of about a week, with some excellent advice and religious advise from a friend of mine. The players have gotten roughly... I would say about a quarter of the way into the scenario in terms of gametime, but there will be events that will take a lot of game-time for them to use up, so I'm guessing about a third is done, in that case? I've never run for such a large group before.

So, for good or for bad, that is my writing. If it sucks, by all means, let me know. I do not like fake praise, and good constructive feedback is what I'll need if I ever want to write it up as a professionally designed published scenario, which is my hope.

Cool, just wondering. I've only listened to the first hour and a half so far so I can't give a full opinion yet, but so far your GMing is good. Some might criticize you on the basis of you controlling too much at the beginning but I think with 7 friggin' players it's understandable. And we all know that the first session is often the rockiest. Good job so far (4 realz).

I've decided that I'm going to try to listen to all 14(?) episodes of the Storm of War podcast during the course of this week. Wish me luck.

Good Luck!  I have two more uploaded that are waiting on me to create posts and on from the weekend ( 7 hours ) still on the Zoom.  We have a tendency to stray off topic a little.  In the 7 hour one this weekend, we had only 2 combat encounters, but we had a couple of trap/investigative encounters.

Dear Ross,

I uploaded some more of my Masks episodes. If you would be so kind as to move them, the chances of me buying your book might increase.

Sincerely,
Shallazar
I wish I was Tom.

Granted, you are now Tom.

I like what you did with [spoiler]Samhain as the basis for a mythos occurrence. By the way: I'ma be "that guy" for a second and tell you that it's pronounced like "sow-in". I love using real world mythology and tying it into the mythos like that, though. I thought you did a good job there. Also, I like how you handled the results of occult roles - i.e. the yellow sign = negative energy according to celtic mythology. I thought that was clever.[/spoiler]

Edit: The only thing I wasn't a fan of was that at a few points you seemed to be telling the players how their characters felt in a given situation. Example: [spoiler] When you told one of the players that her character felt angry/wanted to shake some sense into the guy that said he felt compelled to go back to the "haunted" area.[/spoiler]

Looking forward to the rest.

Well, I was trying to show a bit more of the sanity loss coming forward - no one in the group has ever played the system before, so I was trying to show some of the effects of san loss. I probably did go a bit too far with a couple of those touches.

As for the signs, [spoiler]wait until they run into clockwise spirals.  ;D [/spoiler]
We (hopefully) will be playing again on Sunday. We'll see how well I can finish this up. I think, depending on how many players show up, we might finish this week or go two more sessions. We'll have to see. Thank you for the feedback!

Hey just signed up under the name Joecrak, and am currently in the process of uploading RPPR-CP-4e-Hourglass-of-Kavura-1

I foolishly recorded way to much in the beginning for this first session, so it was  a pain finding the proper start point of the actual session.  A mistake i won't be making from now on.

It looks like I just missed the file move.  I uploaded the first session of our two shot Gamma World game.  Can you move it over when you get a chance?  Thanks!

I uploaded a recording of Well of Sacrifice from Mysteries of Mesoamerica.
Ross, I want to thank you personally for introducing me to that scenario - it was an absolute blast to run, and my players really got into it.

I'm working on my remaining recordings of Emerald Grove. Turned out to be a longer game than I thought!  :D
