I want to play in this one, but I want to give some new blood or others who haven’t played for a while first shot. If you need someone to fill out the roster, I’m ready willing and able. For now, I’ll go on your potential sub list. ---

Yes, I think I want to be a sub for this one, too. ---

We won’t be keeping anyone out. But it will be first come first served. I will post here when the game thread is up, and I will post to the metagaming section of the off site boards too. ---

The boards should be in order now. I approved **Mtgman** ’s account yesterday. 🙂 Also…I think I may create another proboard (without game in the title), so **Hal** (and anyone else with filters) can play in other sites if one isn’t on here at the moment (I do have two others, but they’re both usually being used by: A. the game going on at my boards and B. the game going on here. 😛 So time for a third one methinks) ---

New board made: [http://webmafia.proboards100.com/index.cgi](http://webmafia.proboards100.com/index.cgi) For anyone who ever wishes to use it for anything. I may turn it into a place like psychopath is now, at a later date, so more people can play without their computers keeping them out (well, if it persists). Maybe after this game or the next one I’ll move over to there and have psychopath be the one used for scum boards if someone wants it. I dunno yet. I’ll ask everyone when **story** ’s game is over. _shrugs_ ---

Is the new board for scum to talk at night or will the actual game be there? ---

Either or. _shrugs_ Right now it’s for scum (or spoilers) for any game running here or there but in time (or whenever someone/everyone wants to) it can change into a place where regular off-SDMB games are held (like psychopathgame is). Really, it matters if **Hal** can get the ban lifted or not and if anyone else ever gets a ban from the word ‘game’ being in the link address (as others have had that problem before, it seems). ---

VOTE GADARENE, damnit. I say this, but in the end, we’ll all vote for Dotchan. I’d love to play again, and definitely should not. Too much to do. Save me from myself. ---

ok so the technical problems delayed us enough that we will not be able to start the game today. But look for a sign up thread tomorrow! There will be 18 slots and 24 hours for sign up. The game will officially start Wednesday and will last a minimum of 4 weeks but will probably run 8-10 weeks. We will make allowances for people who won’t be able to post near Christmas and New Year’s. ---

ok ok, I was waiting for my co mod to give the final all clear, but we can polish things up while y’all are signing up. I will start the sign up thread shortly and then post a link to it in this one. ---
