Yeah, totally understandable. It's just been so difficult to move the story forward especially given how the parties are split up. I know there are some people still interested in RPing, and trust me when I say that I am too. It's just that we may need a fresh start or some kind of solution that makes sense for the story and for us as players. 

Pirate Pad is an option, but I don't want to just relegate this variant of the RP to that.
