I've found as a GM you can't wait up for people who are slow posting; just keep the game moving because stagnation leads to death.

I've not had a lot of luck for 1x1s, save for the few times I've written with people I had good chemistry with in group settings. It just helps to gravitate towards people you know you click with and have reliable posting habits, me thinks.

The hive mind here is quite handy. Thanks.

I've been RPing one character for about a year and a half now, and another for over a year. People in general are rarely reliable over the long term, so it's important to figure out a way to keep your story and character going without relying on others.

Aye, that seems a good answer. Least salvage somthing no matter what happens.
