On Combat

Okay, so about this combat thing. I think you'll see you're getting just as much 'screen time' as the rest of the party. Maybe moreso now that you're solo adventuring in the crystal cavern. I mean, combat should be the easiest thing to do on the blog, just type:

Marivhon
Blogroll: 14 to hit the pixie. If that hits, I do (blogroll) 3 hp.

Notice how concise and unambiguous that post is. You don't have to make WI checks every time you want to tie your shoes or drink a potion. If you think you're being screwed, well, read back when Mike was magic missiled and made a zombie. Anyway, you ain't being screwed. As you'll see, the combat has been changed and you're still fighting the pixie (as I think you wanted). This happens all the time, not just to you. Also notice that one round, I just made Cinder fight. Cinder didn't log in and post it, I just went ahead and assumed it. If there was a problem with that, we could've changed it too.

Also, if you're not so good about checking the blog daily, try doing what Dave does, and queue a bunch of actions, with some contingency actions just in case things don't turn out.

In sum, I think it's a nonissue, but lemme know if you still ain't satisfied. And remember, 5 wisdom doesn't mean you have Down Syndrome. Just look at Mike the zombie. He's got a 0 wisdom, 13 hp, horrible attacks and AC, and always goes last. But he's a trooper! On the other hand, we could just raise your stats to monk minimum at leave it at that.
