Mine was ready 6 months before it was played so I'm in favor of this as well.   It'd be nice if people had their setups ready when it's their turn.

My setup has been (mostly) ready since June last year. :V
But, yeah, I think that having everything ready by the time your game comes up would be common courtesy. Or something.

my set-up's "ready" in that it's complete, but it hasn't actually been reviewed yet. that said, i do prefer having games planned in advance

Sounds like a good idea. Given how long the queue is, it shouldn't be a problem to get your stuff done in time. If you like procrastinating until the last minute, it doesn't matter if the last minute is when the game before yours has finished or before you need to have it done because of an artificial deadline.

Edit: I actually think the deadline should be set to before the previous game starts, with maybe a leniency period until the start of D2 in case stuff happens / the game before that ends unexpectedly early. It's not only about not having delays between games, but also about preventing last minute finishing of set ups which may lead to more oversights, even if they are reviewed. It's not like you can't still change something if you notice a glaring error before your game actually starts and if you have more time after finishing the set up, there's a higher chance of noticing such errors. If someone fails to adhere to this, the next person in queue with a finished set up should get to mod first; and if there happens to be none, I actually think it would be better to run a vanilla game first, just to prevent people from being lazy because they expect other people to be lazy, too.

Well, considering that I probably will not have finished my setup by day 2 of Kilga's game, I'm not a fan.

I like this idea, but there should definitely be a grace period for games currently in the queue.  This makes capt. h's problem a non-issue.

If we're going through with this sort of etiquette, it takes effect from capth's game if Kilga's game goes ahead as scheduled.

Yeah.  D2 I sent Kilga my scumteam guesses.  Got you, flubbed on IHNN and Omba (though Omba, uh, kind of became obvious after that).  Though I wasn't playing and you'd probably be able to convince me you weren't scum anyway.

@Pesco: I fixed the merges a bit to make Shadoweh the topic creator for both.

Alright Chaore!  Nice job outwitting everyone else helping net me my first win.
Tar and Feathering...prod/modkill is more useful.
Word restriction was a nuisance more than anything.
The post restriction was a pain but I brought that upon myself...seems like I got the worst of the bunch though.

I need to play like my D1 every day of every game.

This is less due to the post restriction and more due to the playerbase.

UK's D7 post was spot-on and it's a shame Shadowy caved so quickly on the issue.

I think it's more than fair to say the usefulness of the wordcount restriction was reduced in inverse proportion to the number of living players.  By D5 or D6 it probably should've been canned; I will consider doing this in future games with wordcounts.

Quote from: Chaore
@BT: This... pretty much means no one really suspects her and probably won't be lynching her. Excellent job proving my point. Sarcasm on my own views noted.

Insult of my behavior of finding you as scum as 'ridiculous', noting not saying scummy, just trying to discredit my stance as a human being. Also goes on to discredit me more for being annoying, further avoiding any actual flaws. Trying to seem clearly right by being condescending and kind of a MAN opposed to pointing out why I'm wrong, why hello there scum!me i was not expecting to see you this game.
This is a thing that happened. :V

For those wondering why Bob replaced me: I was quite unhappy with the inclusion of a "voteless Townie" role, which prior to my replacing had not included any way to compensate for the handicap (ie no proxy vote). Shadoweh assured me that "others got it worse" and "it wasn't to compensate for someone's awesome role", which prompted me to decide that despite Shadoweh's claims, the game was bastard mod as hell - I said before that I did not want to play bastard mod games, and Pesco was kind enough to get a replacement in before the game even started. Kudos to Bob for that.

Rolling worse-than-functional-vanilla in a functional-vanilla game. I don't even.

Doesn't matter since none of the roles will ever come into effect.

"voteless Townie" role, which prior to my replacing had not included any way to compensate for the handicap (ie no proxy vote).
Was this changed mid game?

I enjoyed that little exchange for the record!

It's so fun to tear into yourself as scum when you are yourself as scum!

That was probably the last case I made actually -trying-, sadly. ;w;

Also Bob, you could have just claimed your role early in the game and no one would have blamed you for it. There was no reason to be cagey about it; it just made you look suspicious.

@Conq I thought the layout would make sense despite everything doing nothing, though. Why would the cop group be special as opposed to the watcher/doctor groups? It made no sense.

@Chaore you kind of weren't the only one who stopped making cases.

cut: they were google translate immunities. Shadoweh mentioned it when I died.
