Also gotta rave for Amby. She dangled the plot for 4 PCs, so of course we went in 3 different directions - literally. But she juggled it all, tied it together, and ended up with us all meeting up in the end. Cat herder extraordinaire!

I have absolutely adored what has been coming from the mind of Ambrosia.
Thank you for all of it!

To manage to pull off what she did last night, in addition to the map changes she made earlier, and the detailed posts, AND handle all the RL fun....that is more than just impressive. You are one heck of a person, Amby.

I wanted to give more player love to Amby. How she is able to juggle RL while being the caretaker of SOO many people/ideas/plots/etc., is beyond amazing. And dealing with two different groups meeting together last night, with multiple new experiments, and have surprises for us lined up during the experiments... what can I say except we really appreciate you, and hope you are having as much fun as we are!

Woah! Talk about being on the edge of my seat. That was a crazy deep philosophical and surrealistic experience. Really enjoyed exploring a different worldview and the psychological aspects too! That was so much more intense than I thought it was going to be when I came up with the idea for that pilgrimage.

The looming threat of permadeath really set the tone and made the interactions and consequences of success or failure so much better. It really challenged me and my understanding of the character and his worldviews.

Thank you Ambrosia for the wonderful fun. :cooler:


Special shout out to Rudiki for the inspiration and fun interactions on the boards and in game. You're amazing too!

Bravo lady! That was a lot of people to juggle, a very large lag monster, and yet you kept it all together and engaged with an excellent flow of story and combat, right up to the dramatic conclusion.

10/10 would word of faith again.

The number of players, classes, groups, threads, meetings, etc. pulled together for the Erratic was awesome. Super impressive and loved it! Kudos!

It's tough to juggle a large group and make everyone feel like they were involved and contributed. I think everyone had the opportunity to do something if they wanted to, even with all of the lag. Great job, lots of fun :)

I thanked you many times already but again, thank you!
Thank you for allowing my little PC to not only join in an event way bigger than her but to be a part of it.
And thank you for putting in motion such a life changing event!
Cannot wait to see where it takes me! <3

The doomsaying from Scelithid was on f***ing point by the way.

You need to add CoEMF :devil: to your signature after that

I thought I had already raved Amby on the eve of battle for all her hard work in setting everything up, but I can't find it, and anyway, she deserves another one now that the battle is over.

Amby, I told you over Discord an hour or two before it started: "This does feel really cool and consequential; I'm sick to my stomach (in a good way); bravo!" Little did I know. :D

That's the mark of a really great DM; making it all Matter. You gave us soooo much great stuff to RP about! Thank you.

Also, raves to any other DMs involved, too!

Absolutely. I have to add my applause and approval and possibly other words starting with “app”.

Get well soon Amby :prost:
