Good idea for this week. I think is something you definitely want to explore in the future. Maybe a night you want to do every two months or so. It allows people a chance to catch their breath. Also gives the DM a break and allows you a breather too!

I loved the puzzles this time--not only were they interesting to solve, with somewhat complicated clues, but they forced the party into a change of pace.

Every session I get more hints as to the story behind the events--it's clear that bjseaston puts a lot of thought into the world, the story, and the wider events happening away from the party. The world feels more real with every session, and the events surrounding the characters truly feel epic.

bjseaston has clearly put a lot of thought into the story we're in, both the history and the current events. The between-game summaries only make the story better, exposing and pulling together all the various threads that I might not notice from my one point of view.

The combats this time were perfectly balanced for the party: they were hard and we had to be cautious, but we suffered very few deaths.

Fun game, exciting fights. I don't think I complimented you last time: the portal that sent different party members to different locations was a great idea. And hearing about the killer chicken over party chat was hilarious.

I enjoyed that the DM provided some hooks to get the characters to pick up the RP where it had ended: the special robe for Sarlic to remind us of his past stands out.

In this, my second session, I'm beginning to glimpse the complexities of the plot, and it's clear I have a lot to learn. A good job of leaving space for roleplaying and character interaction. I look forward to learning more!

It has been my absolute pleasure to play on Tuesday nights with such a fun and diverse group. You have really grown as a DM...from posessing npc's to responding to dice rolls and tells...I'm glad I was a part of that progression. And we've all learned together. Thank you for being such a responsive DM. You made it fun. You really do deserve to be in everyone's Top 5 Best DMs.

COTCL is truly epic. In no way can i think of anything that would improve it at this point. Your quick thinking combined with solid planning a s awhole made for an excellent exit for Ch'ah-na. The campaign is quite simply one of the best games, best stories and best game play experiences i have ever been lucky enough to experience.

Oh my god, what can I say? Talk about the perfect goodbye for one of our beloved adventurers. It was almost as if tonight were custom written. I do not think words can convey the feeling of being a part of that poignant goodbye. Just an outstanding job. I cannot convey enough kudos for such a great continuing plot. Bravo!

Great week for us. Quite a hack and slash kind of week, but I think you did a good job of keeping the baddies coming while really forcing us to strategize, which the party did a great job with. Also, everyone is getting along, which is downright amazing. Keep up the great work, weeks like these keep us ALL coming back for more.

An odd week to say the least. Anyway, what you have done with the mountain environment is breathtaking to say the least. Such great attention to detail and just a beautiful place to play. Now if we can just herd the penguins (uh, I mean cats), things will continue to be great. Keep up the outstanding work, I cant wait to see the continuing adventures of this insane group.

Yay! We're back in the Cold Lands with the conflicted bull-god, the tank, the goody-cleric and the butch ranger. What? Two new "characters" to add? Oh my - the fun never ends. And that last I truly mean - it's always a blast!

Fabulous ending to this chapter of COTCL. The troll caves were great and I loved the design. Just a great storyline and an awesome job by yourself and the party. Im really looking forward to playing with you as a player for the next couple of weeks. I have to admit that Im dying to see the next chapter of this continuing saga. Once again, an excellent time.

BJ is one of the best for out-of-the-game DM'ing. He gives great tells, specific to each player, and uses them to set a sensory atmostphere. He rewards roleplay and then throws bands of monsters at the party, creating a nicely balanced game. Definitely one of my top five.

Wow, every week you outdo yourself. This week was so different from the last. Outstanding job on the rescue your companion side quest. It was great having a sense of urgency while making our way through the dungeon. As for the riddles, with a little tweaking, a greatly imaginative change of pace from this part of the adventure. This has been a great campaign and I look forward to further adventures.

Another great night. I love the way you switch things up. One week heavy roleplay, the next a good amount of combat. THe big battle with the Zhent guards was great fun. Almost forced teamwork for survival. Keep up the great work. You make Tuesday nights hella-fun!

Excellent job, as usual, you are definitely better than Ghool at designing well balanced modules.

This one was a real slug-fest. Fun chance of pace for this campaign. But, I'm ready to get back to some RP - :)

I thought this was one of the best games for the team. Everyone got a moment to shine with some inspired RP and the fights were hot and heavy with the dragons. And there were TWO dragons. Didn't see that one coming. Wonderful work, BJ.

Another great game. Thanks for keeping us occupied in such a grand fashion while we were separated from the rest of the party. The lizards kick butt - well, mostly Rone's. Well played.

Wonderful game, as always. The design has nice eye-candy and the plot continues to thicken. Now, if you could give a greater challenge than that Blighter...JK :D
Please don't fireball me!

Excellant as always. I don't think you had to worry that the group would be stale or the plot old. We fell right back into the world. Good posession of NPC's - especially the flirty guard in the barracks. I was sorry to see him back down quite so quickly - lol. Can't wait to see some action next week, although the RP was especially good tonight. Learned lots of new things about Arlan and Joran. And got in a couple of small tidbits for Ch'ah-na, if I do say so myself.

Cave level is well designed altho the enemies respawned too fast at times.

This group really seems to be hitting their stride - I'm glad we're not taking too much time off. Good thinking outside the box. Game play was really smooth - and thanks for all the skill checks.

Good game. Here's my two cents, and that's not worth much. ;) I would like to see more ground rules, such as when to use Shout, if ever, and how/when you'd like us to use ooc comments. Felt there was a lot of ooc that could've been Tells. Is it possible to scrape the long NPC radial dialogue and do it yourself? NWN tends to be verbose, when a couple of comments will do. The dialogues get to be so hard to keep up with that I tune them out and then get the jist from the pc. lol - that's why I'm not the best as a leader. OVerall, I thought you did a great job, especially letting us rp those long discussions. :D
