Since we can't know details about other people's stories, those awards would be hard to have. Unless the DMs made the selections.

If we're talking about best-written one, I like Bear. If you mean one that sounded like the most interesting PC death, tougher to determine.

If we get an end of year perspective thread them maybe we could vote, otherwise the DM's could vote or select a few qualifiers to put to a broader vote?

Posting this from my phone...

My hotel wants $15/hour for internet, because they are greedy and mean. So, I almost certainly will not be updating anything until the 15th.

I like the idea of a recap, but that kind of intrudes on the no thread reading rule.


As for quickest death, that would be Leaper. His first action was to attack a high level aristocrat whose bodyguard has been the death of a number of characters. Nobody ever asks questions before attacking.

Asking questions is dangerous! It gives the NPC status and character, making him more interesting to keep around, making him harder to kill.

Also, Alfonso's last death isn't in the obituary. Something along the lines of Alfonso went into the rain, turned out the rain was made of bolts.

That's true. The more distinctive the NPC, the more likely they return.

Thanks for the update, Riz.

Whats the problem with this when the characters are dead and gone? They have to be forgotten too?



Also, who is One-eye? : O

well, several of our pc's from the beginning of the year are still alive. That's one problem.

the bigger and far more important problem is that atm, there's something like 60 threads related to this incarnation of AVB. And we're not even 2/3 through the year. That's an enormous amount of info to go through.

If he had two eyes I wouldn't have rolled a 2 and a 1 on my shots. That's a straight fact right there.

A solution might be to have players pm you possible pieces. This limits both number and searching.

searching for them isn't an issue. Between Riz, Mono, and I we have all the threads already.

It's still just a massive bit of time to do all that.

I'll front you the money, just pay it back when you can. Want to start the first one pretty soon, so we can get an idea of how long these will take and start accounting for that in the future.

Always wondered where you were from. Look on the bright side, at least I might live up to its name!

The 13th largest country was named, at least in popular belief, the name it was in an attempt at "tourist marketing", to get people to come there despite its more frosty nature. With increasing temperatures, vegetation would increase and ice and snow would decrease. Well not really, more like that country melting would flood low lying areas of the world, but hey, can't fault a man for trying the cheap joke.

Speaking of which, (not really) is my character ever going to get to enter that village? He's cold.
