Hello everyone.
Okay, so here's what's been going down in pizzaland.
After a holiday season where many of my days off were gobbled up, our latest bungee boss left for greener pastures, making my request to work only 4 days a week a joke, and limiting my days off to once in a while, and by themselves.
Worse, this status change doesn't appear to be going away anytime soon, and I've had neither the energy nor the time to update squat, forcing me to contemplate the future of the game in progress, progress being nonexistent of course.
Delays like this can't keep happening because we'll be at this game all year long. Nobody signed up for that, not even me.
On the one hand, after all the prep work and assembling of a large crew of gamers, letting the game die would probably mean that I'll never try something like this again. Which I don't like to think about.
On the other hand, the last time I did this, I had the necessary 30+ hours a week to host it. Sure we'd have delays but not for weeks.
Anyway- I'm all right, but my time on here or really anywhere is fairly curtailed. I might have a couple hours before I fall asleep each night but that's nowhere near enough to keep any kind of schedule.
So, the decision I'm forced to make is this:
If you guys want to keep going, you will get a standard number of days to get your orders in, and then, the hosting will commence. Depending on what's going on, it may be a few days or a week to get a turn done. I'll also probably be forced to ask my co-hosts for additional help, and if they're not available, I'll get it done.
If you don't want to continue, with a schedule like that, fire me off a PM letting me know you're dropping due to the schedule change. I'm fine with that. We'll make do as best we can.
You should also know that the game was on hiatus during the holidays, I didn't expect to work on it until close to January, and that's when the issues at work snowballed. There will be no such thing as a month-long delay in the future.

I'll just use the insta-win ability, I wanted to try playing it but I'd better remove one obnoxious player from the game.
I may want to keep playing this game, but if you're so overworked you're collapsing on the floor, maybe continuing to host isn't such a great idea.
I'm in for the long haul, but I don't want you to feel obligated to do it. I'm in as long as you are but don't blame you if you want to stop or even put it on pause for a while.
Similarly I would like to continue and am happy to meet any deadlines you impose, ATPG. However, please don't feel bad if you want to drop the game due to your sudden change in circumstances...
I don't expect to die in the game or in real life so I can continue
I'm still in and I'll be ready when the zombie start shambling again.
I'm willing to keep playing, but if it's going to sap away all your free time ATPG I'd prefer to leave it for now to be honest - as ihcjay said, you could absolutely put this on pause if you don't want to drop all the work you've put into this. You could make a note of who everyone is, where they are and what they have, put it in storage, and bring it back once it's less of a :ballchain: for you; replace all returning players to their prior positions and recruit new guys to take on the roles of anyone who doesn't come back.
But if you're still going then I'll stay on :candle:
I'm willing to continue but like others said if it takes too much of your free time then put the game on pause or something. I know very well how personal life can ruin hosting a game.
Not even after all the stuff you Okrahomers have been up to? Divine retribution is at hand.Quote:

Wishing you the best! Don't exhaust yourself. :)
I agree with the others, it is up to you what you want to do Pizza. :bow:
My opinion hasn't chanced since I sent you that PM when I found out you were hosting this. I thought you are certifiably crazy to even consider hosting this. Half of me wants to to take advantage of that and to continue to enjoy this game. The other half implores you to consider what little is left of your sanity.
Fine by me. Just make sure to give a several day phase again.
Outsource to Asia next time
My activity level will not sink regardless of the outcome.
still good to go.
Still in.
We should all write to congress to give Pizza shorter workweeks so he can update this without also having a hernia.

Yes. I, as a player, am still wanting to participate if you choose to do it, but no pressure on you.Quote:

If this is a burden, then please, don't feel like you have an obligation to host this game, if hosting is something you absolutely love, then go ahead. It's all fine by me. Regardless of what you do, I love you.
:bow:
Please rest even if you feel you can do it in these hard times.
When you are fully ready to host again, I'll be back :bow:
