Lol we're running it in Feb and it'll be approx 20-25 days long, it won't involve the TiBB public so we'll only need committed contestants. Which shouldnt be hard because the tasks are amazing if I do say so myself

remember when games were just run whenever we felt like it <3

good times

Yay for moderator interference

For those wondering, Alliance 2 will still be taking place in February - will do most of the advertising for it late December and January

You should apply Ben... so that I can pop up a grenade on you

TiBB Cluedo will begin next week.

[MTVN]

Damn those Mods for trying to organise game schedules in the interests of everyone

[Jarrod]

When will we hear back?

[Kate!]

I can see some games have been scheduled for Spring. When can I know a suitable time to host my Friends like these game?

Was hoping for April, but will slot in whenever.

I'm gonna have to cancel Darkwood, I've had some news that while good means that I won't have a lot of time to run the game. I've got all the material related to it saved so I might give it another shot later in 2013 but for now consider it cancelled.

[Benjamin]

All this 'game scheduling' is a load of nonesense LOL

Let members sort it between themselves.

What and have 5 games going on at the same time? Or have games that are half started and cancelled half way through? Or have games running through BB time. Not like the old days where there were not as many games wanting to be run Jords.

Personally think its being too controlled now.

With such strict scheduling it introduces problems of games flopping (not enough applicants, host vanishes, interest in the game lost and gets cancelled etc.) and other games not being able to try-out because they havnt been fully prepared for 'in time'. Not to mention that its very easy to say 'oh yeah Ill do it in 4 months time' and then when it comes around the potential host may not feel up for it or no longer is a regular. Leaving nothing going on.

Not really considering that some games require just applicant participation as well (Photography Contest is always very specific to just its participants... which is normally never in double figures). And that of course members can play in more than 1 game.

I dont care really seeings I no longer get involved with TiBB games, used to love them, but I think this is just silly. In the past hosts have worked together and waited for each other by themselves. If theres problems then go all mod on their asses.

Why has TiBB BB5 been pushed back to the summer when I said in the thread springtime would be best

Not sure if I'll be able to do it at all if it has to be then, and that'd be disappointing for everyone who originally applied

Unfortunately many others have games they want to run. having 3 or more games going on at the same time is pointless for everyone (including the hosts as they will find it harder to get applications). Depending on some of the other games it may yet be brought forward, I'm waiting to hear back from those hosting Exiled, Alliance 2 etc to see if they are still running the games and if they will be ready in time.

I'm not sure what makes me different from these "many others", when I already had it planned months ago for it to take place, even before the other games that have been put ahead of it had been planned. I understand how hectic it can be when there's loads of games at once but I don't see how a game that was already scheduled in for December should be pushed back that much further.

As you said you may not be able to run the game in summer, maybe the other hosts that have games planned for a time they requested can't either, Mollie. Not fair to force them to push their game back because another game didn't run on time. If they are happy to be pushed back that is fine. I've had to push my next game back by a couple of months too, so we are all in the same boat.

Ok that's fine I'll wait and see what happens. Just so you know though it wasn't my fault it didn't run in time, I had everything planned and ready, the only thing I didn't have planned was a scenario where half the people who applied decided to drop out and say they couldn't do it. If there was some way to resurrect it and host it when it was originally scheduled I'd have done that, but it was impossible.

psssst, the fifth pub quiz isn't in the OP (I was thinking of doing it in February or March, I don't think it should be a problem because it's a less demanding game than the others)

March would be better if that is okay with you? That game is different from the others as it isn't as taxing or as demanding as 'reality based' games.
