So with school over is there going to be a resurrection here?

Eeehhh....the short answer is, no.

The long answer follows:

I've been reviewing the way things were going, and as much as I liked the premise and the characters, it just didn't flow the way I wanted it to. The biggest problem I ran into is that the "motivator" character that I needed as sort of the lynch pin of the thread was an NPC, and I lost track of that character in both threads and forgot to use them to push things forward. I want to stick with the constant update format, but I don't want to end up writing short stories every time the players get bogged down before a deadline.

So, as a compromise, I want to try again with, but this time I'm going to make the "motivator/leader" character another PC. That way I don't have to try and wrangle all of the PC's -and- play that NPC as well. With the leader character as a PC, I'll not only have a character invested in moving the storyline forward, but I'll also have someone else that can make final decisions, and keep the threads from turning into a constant "Shadowplan" session.

So, I'll be setting up a recruitment thread next week. I'm going to give players returning from these two threads with these characters highest priority, with secondary priority given to players from these threads with new characters. It will be one large thread, to try and keep things rolling through the inevitable attrition. However, I'm not sure which of two concepts I have that I'll be using, which is why the thread will be going up next week ;)

I'll post here with the name of the new thread once it's up.
