I completely agree with all that you've said Saucie...

One thing I thought that might help (newbies in particular) with commitment and absences.

Once the final number of players is decided, the mod could post the start date, and calculate the approximate likely length of the game in days (minimum and maximum),so if at that point players see that they are going to have too many RL issues within the likely timeframe, they could pull out before the game starts.

(I speak from experience here, in WWVIII, I miscalculated gameplay time and found myself going on holiday in the middle of all the excitement. Luckily I was killed anyway, so it didn't affect my fellow players....)

Perfect Saucy. That's basically how I wanted to play this one.

So there will be 15 players(my age actually)

3 wolves
1 ranger
1 hunter
1 seer
9 villagers

I work one night shift a week so there will be a time every week I will need someone to help me out. Alcarillo I believe volunteered and I will hold him to that.

I would like all the Days and Nights to start and end at 7pm EST. That seemed to work nicely for everyone in the last game.

Once I have 15 players I will announce when it starts. I have to go to school now but you will get more details when I get home at 3pm.

Have a nice day!
