Potentially players have ceased to read this forum waiting for a game to end.
Try the Beetlejuice trick...

Answer 1: No, the twist is not what is likely keeping people away
Answer 2: A lot of players have stopped playing very often and others are just busy as all get out (read me for that last part)

answer 3: in need of recharging the batteries (ie me)
Though if you could get scoop to Pm some folks...am sure people can get a list together of those previous players.
And i seriously doubt its the topic. I think Remus hit the nail on the head. Busy and a more casual pace by some folks.

Moliere. Would you mind starting after the Thanksgiving Holiday? I think people would be more willing to get started once they have that out of the way and its only a few weeks.

That's fine with me. I only worry that someone is then going to say we should delay until after Christmas, and then New Years.
But I have no problem waiting if that will produce a full roster of players. I really like the infection at any time dynamic and don't want to compromise that like I did for the last GT game I ran.

I haven't played one of these in probably a year or so now over on GT. If you're still looking for players I'm in.

If nobody shows by then, even numbers are good to start at Night Zero, with a kill and orders.
14 -1 = 13 First day.
1+1 =11
1+1 =9
1+1 =7
Lynch loss makes for four strikes, barring Protection, Failed Conversion, Extra kills.
I used to refer to the game as Sunday Night (Night Zero) then Monday/MondayNight, Tuesday/TuesdayNight, etc.

Team leads and supervisors in my building did the no shave November and then they had the employees & the supervisors put money in jars to determine what type of beard they would have to wear the last week before Thanksgiving. At the last minute of the contest two engineers each put $100 in the monkey tail jar. So it was quite funny seeing some of the bosses walking around with monkey tail beards last week
The money went to a charity.

What's a monkey tail beard? And I am in charge of 50 people, and I am the only guy. My Director is a women, the rest of the managers are all women (in my department). My VP is a man, but he is a physician, so I don't think I can get him to do this.
