Full game queue: January 2020
We're ready to begin the process of building the next full game queue. Things to know:
~ This time, we will build a queue of four games. This usually projects to approximately a five- or six-month period (which can vary a lot), so consider that and your own expected time constraints as you think about submitting. Be aware that last time this ended up considerably longer than expected, so it isn't always clear-cut.
~ All members are eligible to submit a game for consideration in the eventual poll. In recent polls we have restricted users who hosted in the previous poll, but this time anyone at all is eligible.
~ To be able to submit a game, you'll need to have a thread created for it in the Drawing Board forum which indicates it as a full game submission. This applies to anyone who has already created such a thread, and members are also welcome to create a thread during this submissions period.
~ To throw your hat in the ring, simply PM me and let me know which game you want to submit. Please limit your submissions to one game per host or host team.
~ When we eventually run a poll, the four games receiving the most votes will be admitted into the queue. No advantages will be given to any prospective hosts. In the event of a tie, the game(s) submitted first (by the date of their being posted in the drawing board forum) will proceed.
~ Please understand that all submissions will be included in a poll to select the four for the queue. This means that some may not receive enough votes to proceed. I hope everyone realizes that this is no reflection on them or on how they are valued here. I wish we could play them all! There simply isn't enough time.
~ The submission period will last two weeks, with a deadline set for Wednesday the 29th of January at 11:59 PM EST (US).
If you have any questions at all, please let me know. I look forward to seeing the submissions roll in.

Re: Full game queue: January 2020
Hey all... so I've never actually run a game of my own, despite playing mafia on and off for years. I've been slowly putting together my Wheel of Time game for EVER, and would love to get it finished and into the queue, but I need a co-host. I need someone who is familiar with the book series so I don't have to explain it all, but also familiar with hosting, to make sure that my game ends up properly built, and who can help me with the nuances of hosting a big game. If anyone would like to jump onboard, please lmk by PM, I would really love to get this made and into the queue!
My siggie.

Re: Full game queue: January 2020
We only have three submissions so far folks, so let's get some more.
I would help you out [mention]timmer[/mention], but unfortunately I have no familiarity with the theme.

I’m always down to toss my hat in to the full game queue. But of course new hosts get dibs

I'd like to host a Town of Salem game.

Re: Full game queue: January 2020
Great! Please ensure you post a thread in the Drawing Board forum with basic details about your game. If you intend to have a closed setup, you can merely say so without revealing any role information. It'd be good to include the number of players you hope to have sign up, as well as whatever information you can share about the Town of Salem theme.

Re: Full game queue: January 2020
[mention]timmer[/mention] I've bandied about WoT-themed ideas of my own before. Here's my CV:timmer wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2020 12:50 pm Hey all... so I've never actually run a game of my own, despite playing mafia on and off for years.

Pros:
*WoT is my nostalgic favourite fantasy series ever and I was a high-posting member of the website wotmania when it existed (admittedly mostly spam)
*I've created and hosted games before on other sites
Cons:
*I've never hosted on the Syndicate and don't know the 'rules' of it so to speak
*I work long hours and would hesitate to commit to any responsibilities in the near future

Last day!
If you're really close to a submission but not quite there, let me know. We can extend if needed.

Re: Full game queue: January 2020
That refers to the order they'll be played, so it actually is Radiohead 1.

Re: Full game queue: January 2020
Radiohead 1 ended with the band signing to a major label and being forced to write nothing but dance pop/hip hop crossover tracks. They're out for revenge in Radiohead 2.
