I like graphs. I think people will enjoy having them on.

llama ... you are nice for running this server and all... but for the rest you are just NOT working with me here...

Guess I'll have to make the graphs simpler then... if I remove say... 7 players it'll be much better and easier on the eye.

Yeah... one nice ascending red line...

Okay, the game's started! The first turn will have 48 hours on the clock in case of difficulties, and subsequent ones will have 24 hours.

How it works is that the server hosts either 24 hours after the last hosting or when everyone's turns are in, whichever is sooner. This means that the hosting time tends to gradually creep forwards. It's important to be aware of that. Remember you can check out the game status at any time at www.llamaserver.net .

I'd like to ask for a volunteer to admin the game. The admin has to do two things:

1) If a player asks for an extension or anything then do it (provided it's reasonable; a day or two is reasonable, if they are going away for a week they should get a sub). It's super easy via the interface on the website.

2) If the admin gets knocked out of the game, pass the password on to one of the remaining players.

It's a really easy, almost zero-work job, but it keeps me from having to carefully watch 20-odd game threads (which I tried for a bit, and it hurt).

Right, enjoy the game guys!

Sounds great - thanks for running this Llamabeast!

So just so I know,
1 who is the admin?
2 Can the admin see my turn if he has evil intentions?
