OK, here's the deal.

There's no game claiming the queue. In order of claims:
0. Game 71.5 D'rek's Rot3K mini. Which she currently does not feel she has the time for.
1. Game 72. PB's Survivor, if he is ready that game hogs the top spot - requires loads of players though.
2. Game 72. Silencer's Dresden Files - requires lots of players and 2 co-mods (20 people).
3. Game 71.5 Silencer's Devil's Advocate mini he is not too keen to run in his own words.
4. Game 71.5 Tapper's Spycraft mini, 13 minimum can accomodate more.
5. Game 71.212 Silencer's on-the-fly-fucked-up-mechancis-game #3 - crazy game, don't vote for this.

Everyone is entitled to his own wrong opinion. - Lizrad

I'm in.

Out of curiosity, what determines whether a game is called, say, 71.5 as opposed to 72?

I'm ready to run Survivor. But trust me, it's going to be a monster and will require a moderator to help me set it up. Silencer would be ideal since I already told him the framework of what I was going to need.

@ansible, the half-number games are, by convention, minis, which typically indicates a smaller pool of players and a faster game play.

Ah, that's what I figured. Awhile back someone mentioned that a "mini" was related to the TMDI of the game, which didn't make a lot of sense to me... (Even if they generally correlate.)

Hahaha , that didn't take long.

Of course, I'm in.

HiddenOne. You son of a bitch. You slimy, skulking, low-posting scumbag. You knew it would come to this. Roundabout, maybe. Tortuous, certainly. But here we are, you and me again. I started the train on you so many many hours ago, and now I'm going to finish it. Die HO. Die. This is for last time, and this is for this game too. This is for all the people who died to your backstabbing, treacherous, "I sure don't know what's going on around here" filthy lying, deceitful ways. You son of a bitch. Whatever happens, this is justice. For me, this is justice. Vote HiddenOne Finally, I am at peace.

I'm probably out, but if I'm absolutely needed or the selected game looks like something I could handle I could play.

Generally a "mini" is a game that has

-few players
-short total game time
-conventional mechanics
-No hidden mechanics/players/factions (not all roles have to be specified, but anything unusual is very rarely hidden in a mini)
-other simplifying factors (ie: the game is altless)

It's not a set-in-stone classification though, so a game that has one or two of the above might be called a mini, or it might not.

Conventional mechanics doesn't necessarily mean it's a meat-and-potatoes game, but precludes crazy stuff like lots of factions, FMs, cults, that sort of thing. Again, though, it depends, so a game with a cult might still be a mini if everythng else about it is very simple and small.

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

I can co-mod if you want, too. I'll do the setup for this as soon as we decide on a game.

Oh, and I added another option to the list...

I may need you to play, Silencer. And as a general rule, I don't use co-mods.

You’ve never heard of the Silanda? … It’s the ship that made the Warren of Telas run in less than 12 parsecs.
