What a pity, BBT! We've just missed each other by one single game. ^_^

Here you needn't specify the game you want to get in, because all Newbie Games uses the same Setup and they get filled as soon as the necessary amount and type of players are present (5 or 6 Newbies, 2 or 3 SEs and an IC; the total number of players is 9).

In theory, you should have specified your status (Newbie, SE or IC; more information can be found in the first post of this thread). In practice, since you joined the forum two days ago, the List Mod may assume that you're a Newbie.

It usually takes some time to get into a game, regardless of the type of it.
As for Newbies, it depends on how "balanced" the queues are. You've already been added by the ListMod, Mina. You'll join the second Newbie started from now. Right now there are plenty of Mods, enough SEs and ICs too. (The latter will appear on Page1 as soon as Mina updates the queues.) After that, the Mod needs to get the game, send the Role PMs, get the confirmations, etc... I think your game will be started next week.

Spoiler: Long answer which has nothing to do with queuing

Actually it is

not

forbidden to sign up for another game while (or even before) you're still in your first Newbie (except for another Newbie). But,
(1) do that at your own risk! Some Setups are complicated or totally unknown for the players or both. And in certain games the playerlist consists of players with a lot of experience (many players are much more experienced than eg. me!)... you may end up in terrible situations too easily.
(2) some Mods (and games) have extra requirements to join their game (eg. you need at least 3 finished games on the site if you want to join). Therefore, if you wish to join another game it's best to PM the Mod before doing so. (I did the same: while I was in my first Newbie I joined another game, but I had PMed to the Mod before joining whether I could come.)

SE and IC works in a bit different way than you think. Check out the first post of this thread! In short: After finishing

two

Newbie games you're not a Newbie anymore, you're a SE (Semi-experienced). But, for joining as a SE you need

three

played games, and one of them can't be a Newbie. (Yes, that means, you need a non-Newbie game too!)
IC is a voluntary position. For being an IC you need more games (at least 5) and you need to be on the site for at least 3 months. But, even if you fulfill these requirements, you can still join a Newbie as an SE. (Or, as always, you can join any other games.) Some players (eg. Goodmorning, Thor, Malakitty) IC a lot, others are never doing that. Being an IC is not a direct sign of being experienced and/or a good player.

Sorry, I wanted to review ICs before starting the next game. The next 1-2 games will be launched tonight when I get home from work and have access to a computer.

Do you need a PM from me?

[Aneninen]

I meant, links or whatever.

If you don't mind that my IC-stuffs will be copy/pasted from my other IC games (and ONLY those, of course), I'm willing to

/in as IC

Even if I have very little time I know the feeling when Newbies have to wait a lot for getting into a game. All I can promise is my IC game will be the priority, regardless of my alignment.
