Re: Resident Evil 2: DISCUSSION THREAD
What's the status, Pizzaguy?
We have narrowed the gap to only TheLastDays and a couple of others without orders in. Likely, TheLastDays is going to be our first and hopefully only totally inactive player.
That one is less bothersome to me that the others, because it's just the one, and likely he's got a great reason why he hasn't been online in a whole month. Bad game to sign up for, though.
We can replace him or whatever. I was worried about what I'd do if I was missing a dozen people from the game. This is tolerable. Plus I have gotten actual communication back from even the folks without orders. That's a start.
Anyway- there are still many hours remaining in the 24 hour one-time only super mega bonus holiday-season first-phase total mercy extension, so we're waiting on that to proceed. It's been a very worthwhile extension, I mean... a lot of orders we were missing are now found. So it was worth the delay.
Then, ladies and gentleman, I have a brief 5 hour workshift, which eats into my supposed 24 hours of hosting duties. It obviously won't take up all 24 hours of that day, so 5 hours eaten out of it from work is no biggie.
The goal is to have everything done within those 24 hours. Results, writeup, result PMs, and the clock starts ticking for the interactive phase. And mark your schedules, there are only supposed to be 2 whole days during the "interactive phase".
It's a quick phase. Since no one is moving, all you're doing is talking to each other and interacting with your environment. Also, unlike a move, if you miss an interactive phase it's not the end of the universe.
So, please be aware- I might mercy extend the first interactive phase as well, but you really, really need to decide what you're doing and get those orders in quickly, after you read your results from the previous round, and the writeup. 48 hours really is plenty, for that. Must get into the habit.
Ideally, you want to decide what you're doing after you read the result, during the same sitting while you're already at the computer. That way you won't forget.
I think we know that the ideal and the reality won't match well, at first. But as the game progresses, and we're doing 2 phases a week, you'll get into the swing of things.
