Wait a minute..if there's a BM Sprint going on, doesn't that function as our BM?

Anyway, got everything ready--just held busy at the moment.

The BM Sprint is on indefinite hold.

Errr, this was true.

Sprint might still go ahead (LNCP isn't going to be around but he's passed on the reins), but keep going with the regular BM as well. If it works out, Sprint will only take a week to play.

What plans are there, for this upcoming non-sprint BM, if one or more players just go silent?  Like what happened with Griffinpup, absent from start of game and not replaced for a week; Darvi who was active for 5 days then disappeared for a week, said oops and then left again, left for us to finally waste a lynch on; Deathsword had a week where he made one post; Rolepgeek had a week of essential silence.

What about them prods, and when prods fail, what about them modkills/forcible replaces?

Or what else is to be done?

I say, saying nothing about it and leaving it to -newbie players to decide what to do about it- is... cruel and unusual rules enforcement, or something along those lines.

So what IS going to happen this BM if play (that ain't play) like that occurs?

I'm going to add that shorter days -> far less ability for anyone who's not in school to play.  There's got to be a balance here.

Hmm, the time of reply to Imp's query may dictate that nobody has a concrete solution to that.

I think we have a topic here :D

Anywhoo, the current BM (if anyone checked the rules) follows the '1 week max Daytime & Two 24-hour extensions Maximum' rule.
