I think that 7-8 PM GMT works out to 2-3 PM in the eastern US, which fine with me.

That doesn't work terribly well for me. That's right at the point when school lets out for me, so I would be voting about six-seven hours before the deadline, and it would mostly be a brief voting post. All of my real participation would be happening very early in the day. Something closer to midnight GMT would probably work better for me.

I myself am living on GMT +2 zone, so midnight is out of question. Would it help at all if the voting deadline was 9 pm. GMT?

About future WW games; maybe we shouldn't take it for granted that a new game begins right after one game has ended. A new village can be set up once there is enough players. No one should feel obligated to sign up, or people will lose their enthusiasm for playing. Also, be sure to take care of your RL things so you won't lose a scholarship or something because of a WW game!

Yes, that would be better. I'll still be cutting it a little close, but that should work. (As long as that is 3 pm CST, as I think it is.)

If that is, I'd have a really big problem. My vote would have to be cast at like 10:30 at night. So you won't see a whole lot of me.

If the Ungoliant's game straddles U.S. Thanksgiving, I have to bow out. If it starts up soon and will be over by then, I'm in. And if so, I'll be the village undertaker; that is, body parts putter back together (oops, I think that was a finger, not a nose, oh well), embalmer, coffin maker, monument maker, grave digger, cemetery gardener, et cetera. I think I can have lots of posting fun with that.

Apart from the stress factor, another reason that puts me off playing again is that it seems that it has become inherently suspicious not to be around ALL the time. If you don't have internet access 24/7 it makes things difficult.

I did it might be fun to have a one day game with a lynching every hour? Maybe between Christmas and New Year.... That would stop the cursed lists........

Mith, that would be completely insane. I kinda like the idea.

Of course, we'd have to make sure that all the players have no plans for the entire day. The wolves would at least have to be there the whole time(to pick their nightly kill every hour) and some of the villagers would survive the whole time also.

Still, that would be a lot of fun.
