Well, all I am really doing if nothing had really happened to you is update your character card and give you a blurb about what you found and so on.
That's not hard.
Battles will be more interesting. In-thread writeup won't be boring.
Which would approximately be when?
Askthepizzaguy 03:36 12-03-2009
I'm aiming for midnight tonight. EST. Best of luck to me.
Good luck.

Update-
I did not anticipate this much work. Unfortunately the writeup will have to wait for tomorrow, as I am still chewing through the character cards and results. So yes, this writeup phase is extended for 24 hours, or until I post the writeup in the game thread... which will hopefully be sooner.
Sorry for the delay, still getting the hang of this. Presently 10 of you have your cards; the results are done but I have to manually update each one and that takes time. I'm almost done but I won't make this deadline and I need a quick break, too.

No problem dude, we'll be fine wait a bit longer.... Relax lol.

Suggestion - give everyone 36 hour turns, while leaving yourself with 24 hour ones. This way, everything runs smoother.

OK I made it up to roughly half of the players who now have their updated character card. (30)
I am doing them roughly alphabetically (sorry Zain, YLC, Yaseikhaan, and the others...

) however I did skip a couple for various reasons that I have to go back and do, due to technical issues on my end. I also skipped those who haven't send in orders at all, obviously. But I am calling it quits for the night as we're approaching 3:30AM and I have RL things I have to take care of (Sleep? Chores?) and therefore, don't wait up if you haven't gotten your card yet. Expect me to get back to work this evening after I get some rest. I believe I will have gotten the hang of this by the next time this rolls around, but I see clearly now that in order to update each card and check it for mistakes, it is taking me between 10-15 minutes per card. Whoops! That's a lot of time. Obviously I may need to make the writeup phases 48 hours on a permanent basis, which would kind of stink, but I realize that there's just no way to make it go any faster, and there are no more corners to cut and no more efficent ways of doing it. I will probably have to do it like this: At midnight when phases end, I'll get to work... spend until daybreak working on it, get some rest, and then work on it when I get up, and try to pack as much in before the second day.
Maybe if I get a rhythm down I can squeeze it back into 24 hours, but probably not before a bunch of people die.
But guess what? We have our first battle coming up, which will be in the writeup.

I wonder if someone's life is about to end tonight...

When it gets too much for you, just use that uber zombie of yours to reduce some players
I knew he was insane to do this ... With everyone turning to zombies his work load doesn't look like it will decrease ether...
