I remember in the past substitutes had a spectator QT, which was separate from God QT

Not a big deal though I guess, but would be fun

I distinctly remember wishing someone good luck as they went in

At times in the past some GMs have allowed a "Spectator QT" which is separate to the God QT, yes. I am strongly opposed to such a thing and would never allow it in games I am running, and when I was on the Council I strongly advised against it in other games too.

The reason for this is quite straightforward. I would be concerned that a competitive imbalance could be caused. Someone might very well sub into the game, after having had one or more phases chatting in the Spectator thread, and thereby gaining the insights and observations of a group of neutral people in the Spectator thread (some of whom may well be experienced and clever players).

So effectively the subs could join the game with the benefit of having had additional coaching and advice from a group of observers. That commentary and advice has not been available to the players who started out in the game on D1. Thus there's an imbalance.

School's out, so now I've got lot's of time to play.

One caveat though: I work overnights now, so I will be dead asleep at all EODs.
Sorry, how is that different from normal? :lol:
Normally that is the time I'm getting to school.

Now, I can't do weekend either.

Bump.

There are up to three more slots open if anyone wants to play. (Although there are enough people signed up, for it to run just fine).

Game starts this coming WEDNESDAY.

It is - you are right - excuse me. I did say TUESDAY. Thanks for checking.

With that in mind, players may start to CONFIRM now, please?

For anyone new here, we do "confirmations" a little while before the game actually starts, to make sure people are still ok to play. You just have to post "CONFIRMED", or put the same next to your name on the sign-up list.

There are still three slots, if anyone's interested in joining.

Are roles and teams assigned randomly? Or does the GM exercise some discretion?
