I'm not clear on the current state of things re: (1) how many games are up and running, and (2) how many games are in various stages of sign-up. 

Galz listed these games as currently running - is this all of them?
- M-XI  (Robz's ubergame)
- M-XIII  (Hydras)
- M-XIV  (Chicken mafia)
- ZM3  (Blitz)
- RMM3  (eHalc's role madness)
- BM-VI  (jo's bastard game)

Three "normal" games, one blitz, one role madness, one bastard.  Do people think this is too many games running at once?  Too few?  Just right?

How many games are currently in sign-up stages?

The number of games is slightly high (but not unreasonable given that some of the games are near over)

I think we're skewing too far toward "strange" games though.  We only have 0 "normal" games out there. (Blitz and chicken are the closest)

Should we maybe aim to have one "newbie-friendly" game (or at least close-to-newbie game) running at most/all times?

As someone said earlier, the problem is that even in the normal games, there is so much going on they are not just normal mafia. The expectation is these days that nobody gets VT it seems.

Also, the trouble is Galz, not everyone can follow as many games as you, but the excitement means that they still want to sign up to them all, if I had more time i know I would

But once the excitement of getting your Role PM is out of the way....well that gamesnot as interesting as the next game about to launch

In pretty much EVERY game now I am reading about policy lynching lurkers, instead of just policy lynching Morgrim for lurking!

I personally think that
One Large (13+)
One small  (9-12)
One Special game (RM/BM/BZ - Because RM and BM are roughly the same thing these days on here)
One Newbie game of 9 people. (or if there is no call for a newbie game at that time, another Special)

+Other games (Hanabi, CE, Resistance)

Would be perfect

With signs ups being opened when the previous one reaches Day 3 (Small size) Day 4 (Large Size)  and then launched after it finishes.

Real life gamers, including the famous theory and his lovely wife, in for the weekend, and I wouldn't be rude and play forum mafia while he's here.  Off the grid in 2 hours.

Of course, I will lurk because I can't resist.

This feels like a lot of games to me.  It probably doesn't help that, like Galz, I follow every one (well, I follow BMVI like i do all games after I die; the others i'm still playing)

I think that's right amount.

In sign-ups:
Insom's (normal)
Voltgloss' (RMM)
Mine (I guess RMM)
yuma (normal, but a lot of power roles)
Ozle's (As a co-mod, I have to say, this one's...hard to classify. But I guess normal.

Morgrim says he has a good idea for a BM game. ashersky has something in the works.

One of the normal signup games should start near the end of Jorbles'
Volt's or I's could come at the end of eHalc's.
Either Morgrim's (if it is ready) or a newbie friendly game can come after jo's.
At the end of Blitz, Ozle's could probably start (if signups are complete).
Another game (normal-ish) could begin at the end of Hydras! (though I have a feeling this might take awhile).

Robz's game is seemingly never ending, but a Blitz game after it would be a nice change of pace.

Just my musings/2-cents.

I'm here, but at the same time not. The only thread I'll probably post is today is RMM. Just got a lot of irl weekend stuff eating time, so it's hard to dedicate my attention here.

And now starts a super busy period of time.  I expect the business to last until Tuesday afternoon, when I will probably sleep but maybe possibly post.

And the gaming weekend is over!  Mondays are usually busy, but I'm around.  Lots of good games played, and some not so good.  Reviews to come!

I am traveling tonight, and will be super, super, unbelievably busy until the 7th - assuming the election ends quickly and semi anti-climatically. If it gets dragged on/out, I'll be busy through....?

I'll do what I can here, but no promises. Especially through Tuesday.

Frisk, you realise the new game just started has a Night start, and a SK and a Vig in it, so possibly 3 deaths...you could be dead in another game already!
