Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

Stalled games actually take more time than active ones- since I go out of my way to get on at the same time every day... and then find myself to have wasted my time.

Although with the LISTS's upcoming DUEDATE OF AUGUST 15 (please note, Skanky ) I'm only going to be playing Mafia and Assassins (whose turns I can miss).

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Stalled games have a low enjoyment/time ratio.
Your hint about the lists has been noted.

A game without an active GM is a dead game.

I'll volunteer to do this one next time. We will be on a tight 24 hour schedule.

This game has something to do with nukes, IIRC.

I hope Chaunk's doing OK.

Perhaps with games like this we can have a Dual GM system?

I think htat forum games curse the GMs.

examples:

1.) Ljube was always on before he was the Mafia Master for his French Revolution game... and then he *diasappeared*
2.) Jamski's abandonment of the fora.
3.) Dr Spike's disappearances during Nuke War XIII.
4.) Nuclear Master's disappearences during Mafia and Nuke War XIV.
5.) Chaunks disappearance

In my defence I only missed a couple turns during the whole game and I was moving house at the time, then had intermittent net access after. That's a pretty decent excuse.

Hey! I had a lot to do IRL these last few days. It would've helped if others were sending in orders regularly!

I wouldn't be nearly so disappointed if it hadn't been a mutineer who'd disappeared on us...

I'd actually be content with calling this round an 8-way draw and immediately starting Nuclear War XV with Spaced Cowboy as GM.

It's a good excuse, but why didn't you tell anyone that you were moving [or did I just miss that?]

As far as I knew the majority of your non-turnposts were because "I'm going out this friday and having fun." or "I'm posting on apolyton, but too busy to update"

But at least you finished your job and processed all the orders, so it's not as if you were the worst GM ever... Just a bit annoying.
