Night 1: Just A Blip [/b] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEZevPziZhY "Nebulo 8 it is!" exclaimed the supposed Captain Spectacular. "I will return to the ship's helm to be sure we head in that direction. The rest of you... be sure to rest up well for tomorrow! You each have your own r...

Alright, this may take me some time, but I'll get the night post up ASAP.

Wow! RIP Leech! :rip: somehow I knew you couldn't be a baddie. Welcome FH! So am I to understand that the punishment for not meeting the posting challenge was to be replaced or was that just coincidental timing? If so, glad I did it! :phew: As for the night poll, it looks like Nebulo 8 is going to ...

Not until later.

Effective immediately, Flyin' High is replacing crusty_mustard.

The clock seems to be one hour off.

Go to User Control Panel -- Board Preferences -- and make sure it says Summer Time/DST is NOT in effect.

I'd like to thank Sock for getting me interested in Steve Reich just by giving me the role. So far this is my favorite piece... Glad you enjoy his music! Definitely listen to Music for 18 Musicians; that is my favorite album of his for sure. He really is such an important figure in the history of c...

I don't know anything about Bioshock but this is impressive! I know more than nothing but I've never played it. :( If I'm adequately introduced before this hits, I'll sign up for sure. I could not recommend it more highly; it holds the spot of my all-time favorite video game, tied with Super Mario ...

Devin the Omniscient was Devin the Omniscient on PA and that is it. He's a friend and now co-worker of mine, FYI.

Really? We need some suspicious and eye smileys please! :eye: The eye is here. Haha! I totally thought this was the beginning of some event. "The eye" LOL I am going to promise myself, if I ever find the perfect time to start an event by posting exactly what I did above, I will.

The eye is here. I will try to add more smilies this weekend; I should have enough time to.

S~V~S wrote:I can see it.

Really? I did edit forum permissions specifically for this forum, but perhaps your global moderator powers override that. Okay, let me look at this some more, lol. Thanks for letting me know.

Ah! Very convincing fangs you have! One other question (since LT is here): How does one know if a post has been edited? I understand the importance of not editing posts, but how can one tell? I edit posts all the time in Gladiators, but there's never an indication that anything was editing. Only th...

So did the Earth portal win? I did not manage to copy/paste the poll and I 'm wondering if someone else might have? Perhaps The Sock will post a copy of the poll? hi to everyone I have never played with :) I hope this will be the first of many games together. <3 To all those I have played with <3 L...

There are no rules against double/triple/quadruple posts.

The answer to each of your questions is... Perhaps.

Bear with me a few minutes, folks, and I will have the Day 0 post up shortly as well as the new poll.

Also MP, I am assuming that if this effects a particular group they know what the benefits/repercussions are already???? Yae or nay? So, half the players have already voted and we don't yet have an answer to the question: @MP: Does anyone have information about the poll? I, for one, see no reason t...

Every player should now have a role. Please PM me if you have not received a role or if you have any questions.

The game thread will be posted and unlocked shortly. Then the game shall begin. Good luck to all.

Well, I heard back and they actually decided to pass, so we are final with 30 players. I will not be taking any more player additions. Roles will now start being sent out. Please do not discuss anything about your role or the game to anyone else. I will post here again once I am finished, and then w...

We should have one more addition to the game. Assuming they sign up within the next hour or so, I will admit them in the game, and then will send out roles and begin the process!

FYI the game will be starting this afternoon. If we do happen to pick up any players between now and then, that will work and I can include them, but otherwise we are going with the 30-player version of the game. Needless to say I am excited!
