… yesterday.
Sorry - in particular to Reno Phelias - but my connection decided to leave for the rest of the night.
Better luck next time.

I answered a sending made by a gnome (Griam something) a high level cleric and, together with another character we went into the underdark for a mining trip.
Since we were quite low level, (3 and 2) Griam suggested us the tactics we should use if we were facing different kind of enemies. That was quite interesting and, for my character, a good way to learn about the perils of the underdark.
As per the tactics, we would avoid to engage if the monsters were too dangerous and we would recur to invisibility or to hide-and-run tactics to avoid fighting in case the monsters could see through invisibility.
Just to give you an idea of our strength, the two low level gnomes almost died to a couple of driders.
It was a very interesting trip spiced up by good quality RP.
Until we received some spawn from a dm (who we asked to help us since my character was stuck in a place with no opportunity to go back - btw thanks again for the assistance) in the form of 50 or more oozes.
The spawn killed my character twice (or three times I do not remember) killed the other low level (who had logged in order to access IRC to call for a DM and came back in the middle of the ooze hoarde) and almost killed the high level char (his hp were lowered to 7 from 100+).
We lost all the RP element and we basically had to click like mad just to avoid dying. I logged as soon as possible and decided to wait for a reset to restart playing.
Will I answer the call for adventures? For sure! But I do understand why people would decide not to answer to the sendings.
Too much risk, for little to no reward.
