I think maybe we should reboot this. As a note, I don't think this is Elf's fault, or really, anyone's fault. It's just how things turned out.
I hate to say it, but compared to round one, I wasn't having as much fun this time. It didn't capture the same feeling. I mean, the lantz stuff made me miserable as all hell, and it had it's bad stuff outside of that, but there was a lot of stuff in it that was a hell of a lot of fun for me, that until certain events came to a head, made it a lot of fun in comparison to this run.
I just think... I think this went downhill not only because of people winding up being busy, but just because it just wasn't the same. And (I really hope to hell, if my characterization was bad the whole time even in 1.0, someone better damn well tell me this time) I think my character writing suffered for it. I slipped up as badly as I did because I was writing out of obligation more than enjoyment.
So I say we need a fresh start. I think after some of the people willing to come back get more freedom with their schedules, we start this up again.
I'd be willing to serve as a plot GM of sorts. ...with literally all that meaning is that Elf can bounce ideas off of me, and me back at her, so we sort of have an overarching plot going for the people that prefer something more structured. Unless there's someone more qualified that can step up to the plate (I'd recommend Nachos in a heartbeat for instance, but he only has so much time on his hands).
So yeah, thoughts, feelings, people damn well telling me if I screwed up with characterization beyond the latter parts of this round of CE or not?
