The NOTW Information Thread

[Takhisis]

LOL! Zack's off the forums, Auto. Who's next after Zack?

 

[Autolycus]

In no particular order: sprig, TFA, pinman, KingMorgan and Winston, but most of those games have been sitting up there since before I first hosted. sprig is postponing due to rugby, and I haven't seen pinman or kingmorgan in a while, so probably TFA with Chronomancy Mark 2 or Winston with Sleeping Dogs. Or anyone else. Among our veterans, civplayah and Renata haven't run games here in a while and I'd be curious to see what choxorn, classical_hero or camikaze would come up with. In another game or two, I'd like to see THAmo and The Bake step into the ranks of hosts, but they should probably play at least one more each before they start hosting. Maybe Love, johnhughthom or thomas.berubeg will show up with a genius idea

 

[Backwards Logic]

Announcement: I have edited the threads 'upcoming games' section by removing games that have been on there for some time now. If there are any errors, let me know and I'll edit accordingly.

And we need some new blood in here. I'd hate to see NOTW die out.

 

[Takhisis]

Well we can't get any new blood until the next Night Phase, when the Wolves come out…

 

[Optical]

After playing a couple more games, I'd be interested in hosting one of these.

 

[TheForestAuro]

I could have a game ready in like three weeks, I guess.

 

[choxorn]

Problem is, Auto's game will end in a few days, and we don't seem to have anything ready to go in a few days.

 

[Optical]

Simple - decide on a number of players, open signups and get the game ready. Close signups when the game's ready (or when you have as many players as needed) and begin. I, for one, don't mind waiting.

 

[Autolycus]

Yes, once you have the outline, you can start sign-ups. It usually takes a few weeks anyway to get the requisite people.

 

[Takhisis]

Except when the GM is me, there signups are full in a couple days and then people disappear once the game actually starts.

 

[Autolycus]

There's a difference between mNOTW's and NOTWs on that.

 

[landlubber]

You can go ahead and put Second Chance on the list of upcoming games.

 

[Winston Hughes]

I'd love to host a NotW someday, but RL commitments make it increasingly difficult to imagine ever having the time to do so.

 

[Autolycus]

Winston, do the RL commitments get in the way of designing or just running? I would be more than happy to run a game of your design at some point in the future if you sent me the game design in any combination of spreadsheets and word docs. I suspect there are several others who would also be willing to do that as well.

Also, BL, I don't want to run it for a while, but you can put me down as starting to design one entitled Only The Strong

 

[TheForestAuro]

So what would this be, XLI?

 

[Autolycus]

Yes,it would.

Yeah, it's just running the game that would be a problem. Thanks for the offer. I'll let you know if I come up with something.

 

[civplayah]

I want to host one sometime in the next few months/year. I'm not very good at designing games, though.

 

[TheForestAuro]

I hear there's a sign-up post in these parts.

 

[Optical]

And accordingly I've made some minor changes to my sig
