Strikeout!
would love to play this one... IN if you still have open spots.
I've bumped the current slot number up to 31 from 30, which leaves 5 slots open after atheotes. I will try and accommodate as many people as possible before the game begins, but 35 is about as high as I can go without doing a significant re-shuffling of the roles. I have already completely written all 31 role PMs. Since every role is a real Senator with a real history and many have abilities and allegiances based on their historical counterparts, re-arranging roles becomes a massive amount of work. So, I am going to impose a hard-cap of 35 on this game. I am happy to include more players beyond that, but they will have to queue for replacement slots to take over for the inevitable WOGs.

Why did the chicken cross the road?
So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli
beatus ille qui procul negotiis,
ut prisca gens mortalium,
paterna rura bobus exercet suis,
solutus omni faenore,
neque excitatur classico miles truci,
neque horret iratum mare,
forumque vitat et superba civium,
potentiorum limina,...
Just to put you all in the mood.
If all characters are historical, I must say, I don't think anyone here is virtuously or justly qualified to play the part of Catus!
In, although I won't be able to participate much until wensday. Let me know if thats a problem Tincow.

Game balance requires an odd number of players, which means that I need one more to bring it up to the hard cap of 35. If you know someone who might be interested, please point out this thread to them. Everything else has been finalized, so once we get the final player and the Villains game ends, Rubicon will begin without delay.
I'm in.

Looks like we're full up. Now we just need to wait to move up to active status.
Sorry, but I definitely cannot go over 35 without doing major re-arrangements of the roles. I am positive there will be WOGs though, so if you'd like I can put you down for a replacement role.
How can a True Roman not be here? Damn, looks like I will have to be a repleacement then.

Hrmph. There are two of you now, which would make it easier to expand again. I'll take a look at the structure this evening and see if I can pump it up to 37 without breaking it.
One thing:
Not anymore I'd say. Looking at the profiles you will see who saw the profile, hence they could get info...It is VERY STRONGLY suggested that all players enable “invisible” mode so that technology is not used to trap you. If you remain visible while on the Org boards, your activity can be logged and compared against a normal profile providing clues as to your role, working partners, etc.

Alright, I thought about it during my commute home and I've figured out a way to expand to 37 that I think will retain the balance. Most of it is irrelevant to you at the moment, but one change needs to be publicly posted. There will now be two Consuls (both Optimates) and two Praetors (both Populares). I have updated the rules post to reflect this.
Consuls being Gaius Julius and Gnaeus Pompeus? They were the historical consuls.
BLARGH!
The game takes place in 49 BC. All roles are real people who were alive at that moment, and their roles and factions follow the lives of their historical counterparts as closely as possible within the limits imposed by balanced and entertaining gameplay.
I will say no more than that.
I do want to participate in your game TinCow, but if I am realistic, I do not have the time for it. In fact the time I can spend on this board is so irregular that participating would not be fair to the rest of the players as I would certainly fall behind in being updated on what is going on.
Sorry, but thanks for the invite.
[edit]: Wow... I just turned on pictures and signatures (I don't have it on during the rest of the week as I am accessing the org via a mobile).
Nice advertisement TinCow for your game
