Default How many Games?

Okay. I'll spin off a thread for BAG once llamabeast returns to us.

Before he went on vacation, we were in a bit of a discussion about whether I was creating to many games. We haven't finalized anything, including my opinion, but I was thinking about several options.

1). Continue creating games once a week.
2). Create a game on a bimonthly basis (say, first and third Sundays, for instance)
3). Create a game on a monthly basis.
4). Stop creating games
5). Poll people for feedbacks and opinions

Problems were several-fold. Limited number of subs, people over-joining games (maybe I can limit participation to one Valhalla game at a time), college curriculum. The capacity of the llamaserver was not an issue. Primarily, we're wondering if we're harming games by creating a shortage of substitutes, and letting people join to many games.

I had several thoughts on the subjects, but decided to take the position of devil's advocate, and argue that this surplus of games may actually be beneficial, or at least that a deficit of substitutes existed before. I came to the conclusion that it would be interesting to watch how atla, bragi, and dagur develop. I'll spare you from all my talking points, though, since I'm not trying to convince you yet. Right now, I'd be interested in hearing what people have to say, though the final word comes down to llama, then me, and lastly, you.

At the moment, I'm leaning towards creating games once every two weeks.
