Since MoM is in recovery mode once again and many of the members are currently awol, should we do a small "wipe" for AaA?
Basically, what I mean by this is we just stop things as they are now, skip ahead to the next morning and the group heads off again, though with all inactive characters (belonging to members who aren't currently active, i.e. Ilaria/Aura/whoever) staying behind at the Inn (for some reason like, idk, they overslept or something).
That way, the active members of the RP can move forward and actually continue it without being halted by people who aren't even here, then if an inactive member returns they can just make their character "catch up" with the rest of the party.
I'm just suggesting this because our current position in the RP relies on too many people who aren't here and who might not even come back, so performing a wipe gives us a new slate to continue on with. I wouldn't want to make these wipes regular, but sometimes when an RP is bogged down by inactive characters, this kind of thing is necessary.
It might cause some continuity errors, but obviously I wouldn't suggest this unless we were at a part of the RP that's (in the grand scheme of things) not too consequential. Like, if we were in the middle of a huge battle against the most powerful squad of Iistarian troops sent specifically to assinate us, and THEN I chose to wipe, there'd obviously be major issues with continuity. But right now, more or less, the characters are just hanging around an Inn, and most continuity errors can be patched up easily.
Still though, it's up to you all, who are currently in the AaA RP. So vote, and it shall be done. As much work as the site currently needs, I'd like to get some actual RPing going again as it's kiiiiind of important here
