Wow, it seems to be really quiet right now.
Annoying, since I was looking for excuses not to get some much-needed sleep. :P

It's morning roughly across America, isn't it? Might be more active in the afternoon.

(I don't actually know the nationality of forum members, so I might be wrong in assuming most members are American)

This is when I imagine the hilarity which may happen if certain things are glichy. Such as targeting your own body parts to eat.

Well, it's 2:30PM here in Poland and the rest of Central Europe (so 1PM in the UK and probably 3-4PM in Eastern Europe), and I believe it's very early morning (5AM?) on the western end of the Americas (at least if my memory of British Columbia's time serves correctly).
It's not unfair to assume that most people on B12 are American though. Then again that also applies to the internet as a whole.

I'd love to stay up and watch the sunrise/Peak Posting Period (PPP) with y'all, but I need to sleep.
Good night!

Cuz I can barely keep on top of my inbox as is :c

I'm just going to go and point to this. Not sure if it'll work in your specific circumstances, but a nice thing more people should know about nonetheless.

I think we should turn this into a simple forum game where anyone who is bored during the can GM or play.

  (It would probably save it from being locked)

I mean, sure. Why not. Should keep allowing OOC discussion of random stuff, though.

If we go the FG route... how about a simple d20 or d6, in the vein of a minimalist RTD? Could keep a status spoiler to help GMs.

Good idea. I think a d10 would work pretty well here, actually. Rolls from 1-5 would fail, and rolls from 6-10 would succeed, balancing the success between modifiers and luck. We should have a simplistic character sheet system that could be used for any game that a GM would want to start.

Yeah, sounds good. Let's say that each point in a skill gives a +1 bonus to actions with that skill.

Maybe achieving a goal levels you up instead of making you win? + skill points depending on the difficulty of the goal, then new equipment and such at the current GM's discretion.
