Please pull me from the list. I just don't have enough control over my schedule between work and home life at the moment to be able to run a game. Continuing to slide down a game isn't fair to the people behind me as a long-term strategy either. Sorry for any inconvenience posed by this.

All this proves is that you need a new job.

I'm very sad about this indeed.

hoopsguy · 12-09-2007, 01:37 PM

This doesn't mean I won't be playing in games - just can't make the commitment to run a game, where morning/evening participation at set times are required. You'll still see plenty of me around these parts, for better or worse

Still sad that you're not running your game despite your promise (threat?) to still play games.

Passacaglia · 12-14-2007, 02:05 PM

Please add me to the list. I promise to make my next game less complicated (at least a little less)!

will there be any killing in it?

Yes...in fact, to make up for my last game, there will be potential for several deaths per day.

Lathum · 12-17-2007, 03:38 PM

I think it's a good idea to take a break for the holidays after this game.

Not sure when in January Peregrine will be ready but I am after him. I'll be going home for the holidays so if someone wants to jump in line feel free.

I think CW's game is designed to be over for the holidays and I would agree that starting a new "large game" in Janurary makes the most sense. I was thinking of offering, if there was interest, another 6 or 8 player game during the interim (or possibly even 2 if there was that kind of demand). I would add that I was planning on running them simply because I know I will have the time (being on winter break and not having Christmas to celebrate). If someone else was interested I haven't been feeling too inspired with my writing as of late and would be happy to let them run the game instead.

I for one have only 2 days of fmaily suffering, and only xmas day off! so bring it on

that being said Im not sure I can run a game! not very creative! Im gonna run one in a couple months on another site, and ills ee how that comes out! (they are used to much more simple!)

Lathum · 01-11-2008, 02:48 PM

I can run a small game, its a theme I have been chewing on and I may as well try it. Once barkeep gives me the ok I'll post a thread and convert everyone who was signed up for the other game.

I can post rules during the weekend and we can start on monday.

By all means. I want to play already.

OK, I'll get things rolling tomorrow

Lathum · 01-15-2008, 12:14 PM

I figured I would post this here.

May I suggest we keep the next few games simple. It seems we have some new people either playing or showing interest in playing. I think it will be easier to recruit and keep new players if we give them a chance to get acclimated before we muddle things to much.

Far be it from me to tell anyone how to run their games, just a suggestion.

jeheinz72 · 01-15-2008, 12:15 PM

I think that's a good idea.

I have been mulling that over, as I am next. Depending on the number of players, I was considering going with a Congress, Dems-Repubs (factions) and third party/Indy (wolves) playset that might be too complicated. I had a plan for a smalelr game, too, but I am wondering if my "twist" in that game will still be too much.

If someone has a good simple game in mind, I would be willing to drop two or three spots to let them roll with it.

claphamsa · 01-15-2008, 09:51 PM

My game is coming together fairly well, and I can change the twists enouhg to confuse mau and heinze.... and anywasy ill have 3-4 months, maybe ill have a new idea

so put me on the list.

Barkeep49 · 01-15-2008, 10:48 PM

Chief I think you should attempt to run the game you want to run.

Abe Sargent · 01-16-2008, 06:51 PM

My game will have some complexity to it, so if you like, why not drop me a slot or two down on the list, just in case.

st.cronin · 01-28-2008, 05:30 PM

Whenever there's room on the list, add me.

So you don't ever want to host? Got it.

Abe Sargent · 02-09-2008, 05:40 PM

This week I've been hashing out a sequel to my previous Lord of the Rings game. However, I do not beleive that I have the time right now to run it. As such. I would like to, reluctantly, withdraw my name as a host.

Sad I know, and perhaps a bit later than I would have liked, but I *really* wanted to run this rule set.

I hope no one takes the Battle of the Five Armies for their gane befoe I et chance to take this out for a spin.

Chief Rum · 02-09-2008, 05:43 PM

I would like to be added to the list please. Thanks!

path12 · 02-11-2008, 04:51 PM

Guess I'm up next. I'll start the signup thread tonight, I guess we'll see how those go before figuring out when the best start day would be.

Lathum · 02-11-2008, 09:15 PM

BK, add me back to the list please

RendeR · 02-22-2008, 10:28 AM

Holy crap, I gotta get my rule set written =) I didn't realize my game was coming up so fast =)

jeheinz72 · 02-22-2008, 05:22 PM

Anyone care to volunteer to be a sounding board on some power ideas for my game (which is next)?

Feel free to drop me a PM. I likely can't play in the next game still because in-laws are in town forever.. (or until March) so I don't mind giving my input if it can help.

Barkeep49 · 02-22-2008, 05:46 PM

I'm always happy to give advice and suggestions on games.

Neon_Chaos · 02-26-2008, 09:34 AM

Six game hostings under my belt.

Schmidty · 03-24-2008, 05:12 PM

Hi guys.

I'm going through some personal stuff right now, and I just don't feel up to making and running a game at this point. Amongst other things, our rottie just got diagnosed with cancer and will be having surgery on Wednesday. Also, I have a huge infection on/in my left jaw because of a partially erupted wisdom tooth. It is in my top 3 most painful things I have experienced, and I couldn't get an appointment to have it removed until next monday.

Anyway, like I said, please bump me down a spot for now. Sorry if I screwed things up.

The Jackal · 03-24-2008, 05:20 PM

Yikes, that sounds awful. Feel better soon. You can tack me on to the end of the list, btw. By that time I think most of you will have gotten to know me enough to trust that I can run a good game.

jeheinz72 · 03-24-2008, 05:37 PM

man, tough one Schmidty. Hope it all ends up ok.

I'll go back to the bottom as well please.

Alan T · 03-24-2008, 05:42 PM

Yuck Schmidty, sorry to hear about all of that

I'm all set to go, so no worries about that, I can jump in when the current game is done.. but more importantly best wishes for everything going on.. I hope it all turns out as well as possible

Barkeep49 · 03-24-2008, 06:41 PM

What a terrible string of events.

jeheinz72 · 03-25-2008, 09:10 AM

FYI Barkeep, I think you missed Jackal and I asking to be added to the list (you said good through post 22)

Passacaglia · 03-25-2008, 09:27 AM

I Schmidty going to be able to host the next game, or am I getting bumped up?

Barkeep49 · 04-11-2008, 08:47 PM

Neon you're up.

By the way, I'll be ready for my upcoming game.

Coffee Warlord · 05-01-2008, 10:07 PM

I'll be ready by the time it gets 'round to me. Sign me up.

Fear.

claphamsa · 05-09-2008, 08:04 AM

I dremed last night I was runnign my game, but I was doign it on paper.... it didnt go so well. Heinze kept telling people thier rolls, and I had to change the game, cuz they belived him more than me.

Passacaglia · 05-09-2008, 09:19 AM

Damn, I didn't realize sending you my spreadsheet would freak you out that much.

claphamsa · 05-09-2008, 09:42 AM

I always have wierd ass dreams tho.
