I loved our noob game and think it's a great introduction. I wouldn't have ever started playing if I were just expected to jump in the middle of a normal game. I think people who have bad habits will have bad habits no matter what until it's beaten out of them, and getting into it gently and with a group of new friends is fun. Plus the amazingly ridiculous shenanigans that would never fly in an experienced game...I'm still in the noobs learn better outside of a noob only game boat. I don't really find the noob games to have helped all that much, the new players develop some bad habits then we spend the next 3-4 games beating out those habits instead of them never developing.
But I sure won't stop a noob game and I'd still probably agree to help mentor. ... just think mentoring works better when the noobs are playing with the more experienced instead of just via a PM guidance.
It is most definitely fun and addictive! Looks like we'll be running a beginner game (with people helping guide you through it) starting in mid-December; I'll be sure to tag you and get you hooked.Hello @Trilt,
Thanks for the shout-out.
Guess what?
I do not know how to play WW games. That's "why" I haven't signed-up for any of the WW games.
Does WW require a sizable investment of time? Is it fun and addictive?
When (and if) I figure out how to play WW games, I'll join everyone in the future.
It may have taken us a few years but we finally got those gifs out of our system, amirite @Mad JackPlus the amazingly ridiculous shenanigans that would never fly in an experienced game...

There's usually advising roles. You don't have to avoid itDang, I actually wish I was inexperienced enough to play the n00b game.
You didn't get to play the last noob game right? I think you could totally get away with playing as a noob.Dang, I actually wish I was inexperienced enough to play the n00b game.
I'm pretty sure there were a couple newish players who had played a few games in our noob game How many games have you played though?Dang, I actually wish I was inexperienced enough to play the n00b game.
Look at those fighting wordsYou didn't get to play the last noob game right? I think you could totally get away with playing as a noob.
Super late response, but I agree I might be interested after finals are over! I'm done 12/16.Honestly I think someone should think up a noob game. It's been over a year since the last. I've dragged a couple random people in with my addiction, but there are totally lots of other regulars who I think would be fun... @wheelin2vetmed, @Bottle of Bear, @LyraGardenia, @mmmdreamerz, @Rainheart come to mind quickly.
Has @jmo1012 ever played? Maybe get some admin action from @Doctor-S? Etc.
Would prob be best after finals though.
This is more of a springboard off of the current conversation in Trilt's CampWWorld about themes not fitting WW, but I've about given up on Star WWars 3.
Hopefully I will be more in a back-up and advisor type co mod role, so whenever you have the time to put it on, I can run cover.Do we get bonus points for turning a non vet med thread into one related to this forum? The process usually goes another way.
On another note, y'all motivated me to go back to Star WWars. It's not as bad as I feared - there's always bit characters to include if I need more names. @Lupin21, thoughts on running it? At this point, I think I need to set a deadline publicly to make sure I test balance - maybe after STL's Immuno game?
Alright. Everyone alright if I reserve immediately after STL's Immuno game for Star WWars 3?Hopefully I will be more in a back-up and advisor type co mod role, so whenever you have the time to put it on, I can run cover.

Up to the mods! you're in noob limbo I thinkI think about 5 games? If that's too many, I'll take the advising role Zensing recommended. WW's always fun!
We had said 2 or less, but if you still feel nooby I'm fine with you signing up. I just don't want really long term players jumping in to kind of take control of the game... the fun is in the mistakes and nobody having a clue what's going on.I think about 5 games?

How long did you live most games? I think you could get away as a noob and it looks like we need more noob players.I think about 5 games? If that's too many, I'll take the advising role Zensing recommended. WW's always fun!

Yes, we know it's here*bump*
Sure. I haven't looked at it in a while, but hopefully I'm just needed for some sheet tracking and help sending out things. hahaYes, we know it's here
@Lupin21, you still OK with running Star WWars 3? If so, I'll post sign-ups with tentative start date Friday.
Ooh. Cats... Im off clinics and back in class now, so right meow seems like perfect time to start WW again.I'm almost sorely tempted to play the WW Cat game....
I think people who always have cats in their avatars get first dibs.dog sanctuary players get first dibs on the cat sanctuary game right??
