Okay, that makes 16! Oh gosh this was more popular than I imagined.
I'm going to tentatively close sign-ups. Anyone that has not sent in a PM, please do so. If someone else wants to sign up last minute, have an answer ready because I'd like to start the game ASAP. And I want to include everyone I can because this is supposed to be fun! Everyone should have fun! But I also don't want the game to drag on for too long. I told someone that I plan for it to cap out around two weeks, because any longer and I feel like it might start to take away from the goal of the game. Through virtue of current player numbers, this game could stretch a few days into its third week. If this is a problem for anyone, let me know. I might be able to implement some means to speed it up a little bit.
Lastly, there are some aspects to the game that will quickly become apparent within the first phase or two. I've debated being clear about this--especially since a couple of people know already about the intentions of this game--but I think experiencing it would be a better and more entertaining introduction that reading a paragraph or two about it. Don't worry, it's nothing too complex. You will very quickly see what's up. And the few I've told have no inherent advantage considering--well, you'll see!
