I'm keeping the TWC as a "nuclear option", but I'd rather not leave this site, and I respect and understand the rules here.
In all likelihood, there are just not enough moderators and players here to handle more games. People want to host large games but how many games have died because we didn't get enough signups?
I don't blame the moderators here or the rules, because I respect them both and they aren't the real cause. The real cause is lack of players, lack of moderators. As such, maybe they wouldn't even MIND if we hosted games elsewhere. It's just my nagging loyalty to this forum and the people here that are keeping me here, as a headstrong rebel I don't usually find myself obeying rules just for the sake of doing so. I have to agree with them... and I do, most of the time. And if I don't I leave so I dont make trouble.
I'm probably going to pull a moderator aside at some point and air my concerns. I'm sure they are aware of them by now anyway. I just want to be clear that I don't intend to start any kind of concerted effort to change things around here, and I don't want anyone thinking I blame the moderators, for doing the fantastic job that they do. There's only 3 of them and the gameroom is rather busy. Especially with me in there.
They should make me an assistant moderator just so I can handle all the extra posts I make.

Basically all I'll say is that perhaps we could have an extra slot for games that don't have THAT many people... make 15 and below a small game, 16-25 a medium game, 26-40 a large game, and above 40 a huge game. Allow all small games, or perhaps just more of them. Or a compromise. Whatever.
However, that's obviously just changing the rules for my benefit, because most of my games can be 15 or less. So I'd have to have a stronger case than "I wanna host" especially when I've hosted a bunch recently and there are others waiting. I doubt they'd change the rules just for me, even if there were demand. They are wise enough people and rules are there for a reason, if they had a reason to change them they would.
I doubt I can make a case that things should change. Things work as they are, and I'm just impatient. There is a backlog of large games, which could be addressed, but otherwise I can't complain about the small game queue as I currently HAVE an active game. Seriously it will sound like I am whining.
I may just ask a moderator if it would be ok to actively recruit ORG players and have them join me at TWC, or if that would be seen as stealing players from other people's games. I don't want to do that. And I don't want players overloaded and unable to give their all in my games too. There may be some wisdom in only having our group play a few at a time.

These are the badges I've created so far. I will possibly be resizing them so you can put them in your signature line, if you want them to go there. Otherwise you can just save them on your computer or save the links so you can show off your bling to the ladies... or to the gentlemen, if that's how you sway in the breeze.
We at Pizzaguy Industries make no note of which way you sway. The bodies hit the ground the same way no matter which direction they fall. Isn't that right Sweetness?

Yes, Sweetness... what's that? Shoot them all now? But I have to give them the awards first.![]()

Hooahguy, go to the gameroom and join Seireikhaan's Chicago Soiree.
Assuming you come here often and don't mind committing to a game, the Chicago game will have plenty of experienced players to help you get the hang of it, and its the PERFECT beginner's game.
It's two mafia versus a bunch of town, and town votes to lynch who they think is the bad guy, and at night the bad guys kill townies, then it goes back to day phase until only one side remains.
