appleguy123; you're next, but if you don't mind, please wait for jav6454's game to begin before you start a new thread/open sign-ups.
Okay.
Just to elaborate; once, chrmjenkins opened up sign-ups for a game while mine is still open to sign-ups, and that leeched players from my game. That isn't very nice, so for the courtesy of all hosts, I feel there should be an unspoken rule that concurrent sign-ups should be avoided.
... only wolves disdain the consumption of one's cupcakes by another. Lynch Melrose!
The game hasn't even started yet! Geez, how many games have you played?
oh wait..
I have that Safari extension that locks them on the first frame so the browser doesn't stutter.
Intell, you're up. Due to the consensus of some players (and I agree), we should only have one game going through the holidays. Perhaps without any time limits, to make it more of a leisurely game. Just my opinion.
Intell, go ahead and start up a discussion/sign up thread.

I don't want to run anymore games. That was way more stressful than I thought it would be (especially with finals in the middle of the game). Who is going to run the next advanced game, since ravenvii can't do it?
jav6454, I think, though he should pop in here to put himself on the list
I'll do another Complex game. But I believe it will be better to hold it off for a while. So in that respect I'm signing up for the list. In
I'll run the advanced game only if Jav6454 can't do it in the near future. I much favor playing, but hosting is better than no game at all.

I can. Im just letting the forums sit down because of the holidays. I have a nice continuity from the previous advanced game.
I stated (in some other thread) around the end of January. I am giving the forums some time off so attitudes can cool down. Also, as a breather so that current players can have some 'off' time.
I also need that time to see what changes I make, if any. I might just remake the previous game as is and finish clarifying many important points. Haven't decided yet.
so appleguy, since jav wants to wait for quite some time, do you want to step up and host the next game?
I am sure you can do a good job.
or does anyone else want to try to host?
Rodimus?
edit:
as i was mentioning in one of the threads, i think we should move away from the simple/complex game system, and just tailor the game to the number of players. with more players you need more roles, but the sides need to maintain balance.
also it would be important that a role maintain its characteristics across games (even accounting for game tinkering by the 'gods'), for example the hunter role was very differnt from the simple to the complex and from game to game.
this generates confusion.
i put together a table with some suggestions of roles/number of players and as a way to unify how role works.
if we come to an agreement on those, than the host can just select the specific roles that will be used and we are all on the same page, without too many changes.
again, this are only suggestion, but they can work as a start point to foster discussion.
there are no real changes from before, fro example i simply called the 'simple hunter' (no insta-kill, no immunity), 'guard' to make it obvious what the differences are.
so the master hunter has protection, insta-kill and one immunity
the apprentice hunter has protection and insta-kill
the guard has only protection.
(but i think the hunter/guard should be able to also protect himself on alternate nights instead of another villager, so he can get some immunity back)
there are a couple more very minor clarifications/proposals to some of the other aspects based on what was unclear/unbalanced in the last couple of games.
