This is now the BoWWling sign ups thread. Disregard all things that were here before. Cycle timing will be 36/12 or hybrid. Start date is maybe Wednesday the 19th. Direct all questions to @cubsrule4e!

@Melchizedek and crew will be running Assassination Classroom next to fulfil your basics WW needs.

How should I put myself down if I really shouldn't play right now because I'm too busy at work, but can be put into BoWWling if cubs winds up in a position where he needs exactly 1 more to run it?

and I do really love Basics.

ack.

Ok well I'm gonna pretend that I have any semblance of self control at least until the end of today, but let's assume that I'll take the #17 spot in both games.

and if someone takes my spot, then I'll take my other usual number of hiding under the couch.

So is there any reason people choose specific numbers? Just looking for a lucky number with RNG?

I'm up for either with no order preference but only with 36/12 (or maybe hybrid? Not sure exactly what that involves) because I feel like I'll hold a 12/12 game back.

Hypothetically speaking would you prefer the hypothetical hybrid cycle length?

Just favorite numbers! Some games have PMs between players based on roster position, so sometimes people will sign up next to players they want to be able to PM with too.

Hybrid means the game starts at 36/12 and at some point may accelerate to 12/12, usually near the end of the game.

The numbers are just kind of a tradition thing, or favorite numbers, etc.

The hybrid cycles starts at 36/12 to give plenty of time for evaluation and people who are busy early in the game. Once there are just a handful of players left the cycle switches to 12 hour day and night since theres much less talking and participation so that the game doesnt stall out and get boring just waiting around.

excuse me I said we were waiting until the end of the day so I could pretend I have any impulse control

she said, buying more cross stitch patterns as we speak

some day I'm gonna ask @genny to teach me how to make cool bags and stuff so I can take my crafting addiction to the next level

Two sign ups in the same thread? What’s happening?
 
I will say that if people aren't like, dying to play a basics game right now, I can always run it ~later~ to give preference to things that have been on the "ready to go" list longer. Especially since I've got the 10th anniversary game coming up soon. I wanted to offer it in case the nooblets wanted it as a transitional game to playing with everyone, but if they're ready to jump into our more typical role madness stuff then it doesn't bother me to postpone.

Okay so my life is a hot mess rn which definitely means I need a distraction. I will happily play bowwling since it's basically got mythological levels of hype now but probably not up for a basics game. Oh, and if it's anything shorter than 36/12 I am probably going to fail spectacularly at getting on thread in time lol

SDN is a bitch about all kinds of posts lately. I was trying to edit the OP to reflect that I'd be fine postponing Basics for later on if there isn't a lot of interest right now, but it won't let me.

@bluestoat Basics would be a great first game for Mr. stoaty to try out
I would like both, no order preference, will drag Mr Stoat into one of them by his furry tail if necessary.

36/12 cycles preferable because I'm clear of COVID and will be going to work again, and living life with a clean home and happy dog takes a surprising amount of time

Been keen to do basics for a while though, because you are really limited in certain mechanics (like fakeclaim) and have to enhance others (tracking statements, being resolute in your reads rather than easily talked out of them, etc)
