I don’t want to interject into any current game, but would love to be included in another game of that nature.

If there are recruitment posts, I guess this post is pointless.

Just keep an eye out for the round of sign ups, there’s always room for new players!

I should mention, we only run one game at a time. Basically, just check when the current game ends.

That sounds a bit more tidy than the few that happened to run at once years ago. Is there an off-board site for such things, or is that not something that is talked about here?

[Idlemafia.com](http://Idlemafia.com) also runs games, including many of the same folks as here. A game just got going there as well, but it is worth registering and looking for one there.

I may run a game this summer, actually. Haven’t modded one in awhile. 🙂

It would be on the Dope.
