Considers that players start and stop games in waves. Some fade into playing after a break of several months. Some just start new games when there previous ones end. They gain players when they gain players. I just started feeling like a game. I didn't care for any of the currently going game ideas.
g.e.

"When the newspapers have been read, the TV sets shut off, the cars parked
in their various garages. Then, faintly, I hear voices from another star.
(I clocked it once, and the reception is best between 3:00 A.M. and 4:45
A.M.). Of course, I don't usually tell people this when they ask, "Say,
where do you get your ideas?" I just say I don't know. It's safer."

Advanced games tend to take about 2 months to fill in any case. Post early and often.

..aahhhh...
But then you get the scenario where you eventually have your x players.
"Hands up who's here?" you innocently ask...
The tally?
x-1
So then you go about recruiting more players to fill the empty slots...

this hits just a little too close to home....which is why I've given up my idealistic hope of ever playing another game w/ 16 advanced+ players in the same game. Now I always post alternate sizes and once the game starts to reach threshold, i'll give 2 days and close game.
Man, I remember the good ol' days...back in '98-'00.
