The write-ups they've done have been nothing short of fantastic. I look forward to those every day. Maybe if I say enough nice things about them I can guilt them into putting these types of write-ups into all their games. Muahaha.

The write-ups are kick ass! Not knocking those. More outside of the game

I'm about to send TBW my list of 40 characters for The Wire game I created. I'm hoping we can actually get 40 players signed up, if not I'll have to cut some. He'll make some adjustments and we'll move from there. You can put us as advanced planning if you want.

We typically have big games here but 40 is massive and probably really tough to manage. Outside these forums most games ive played are 15-20 max

The HP game was 38 people but thats way too big. 25 would be a good number for most games.

Yeah it would be just around the same size as the Harry Potter one, I'm going to discuss it further with TBW but yeah it would be a fairly large game. With the two of us I think we could manage it.

I feel like the Harry Potter game ran fairly well. Again me and TBW are still discussing the details so we might get rid of a couple characters. It's tough in a universe like The Wire though where they is so many awesome characters and you're going to have to miss out on some either way.

Basically this. You're guaranteed to have tons of inactives but if you make a game with 25 people who are certain to be active the game will flow better.

I definitely see where you are coming from. I'm going to try my best to get active players in this one, and seeing as it will take place in June after school is done we're hoping players will be more active. We still might cut some characters. Keep in mind I know who the inactive players are and will try my best to keep them out of the game (IBC is usually good).

As long as you have Omar, Brother, Chris and Snoop(one character), Bubbles, McNutty, Marlo and Bunky I'm good... Oh and if Vikes is in it.... Make him Brandon.

I'll put you down in the planning stages of a Dexter game in case you get something else going.

I could try and help you, i know dexter pretty well and it would give me an excuse to watch them all again.
Having a 17 and 16 year old make a mafia game doesnt sound like a good idea though.

I'm just hoping people aren't tired of these games by the time The Wire game rolls around, which will probably be 2-3 games from now. I'm very excited to be able to run this with TBW and I like what it looks like so far. I'm still having fun playing in the mafia games.

Age has nothing to do with it, just the fact that I don't really like you :l

People better still be playing them, thats the only one I'm really excited for. Im probably going to watch through the series again starting this week.
