I've been finding that it's harder than you'd think to get to those 5 action or 10 network comments in a thread. People I've been tagging with tend to drop one or two comments shy of that mark, which is especially frustrating because we're both then losing out on points that could be banked to make special requests later. Often times the thread is dropped before there's an IC resolution so handwaving happens a lot, too.
There's a core group or two that tags pretty regularly and they're pretty good about reaching out to others but a few people's hearts just aren't in tagging outside of the few people they're there to play with, so it can be hard to get traction. You'll want to try to stick it through the three week doldrums because it can take a lot more time than you'd hoped to build CR outside of friends you joined the game with.
It's going to be a different experience than Bakerstreet by a long shot in some ways, and other ways totally not. Just try to go with the flow and keep Bakerstreet-levels of investment with strangers until you find other players whose style and characters click with yours. You'll get less jerked around if you try to keep a steady pace but don't sweat the small stuff.
da's two cents
