Large Normal List (Moderators)

StrangerCoug · Post Post #0 (isolation #0) » Fri Dec 17, 2010 11:02 am

RULES FOR MODDING

A Large Normal is a game that has at least 14 players and complies with the Normal Game requirements described here. Unless mith grants an exception, to sign up to mod a Large Normal, you must have run at least one game to completion. You are not allowed to simultaneously run another game until you complete two games, and even then you are only allowed to run one other game. (Newbie games do not count against your modding limit.) You are not allowed to run a Large Normal and a Large Theme at the same time. Additionally, if you signed up to mod on or after January 4, 2013 and this is your first time running a large game, you are limited to a maximum of 21 players. (This may be waived at my discretion, though.)

When you are ready, post in thread stating who your co- or backup mod is (you must select someone eligible to run a Large Normal) and the modding commitments the two (or more) of you have. If one of you has not modded before, please post your experience as well. If I approve based on this information, I will ask you to PM me all role PMs, the rule set, and the opening post for your game.

PLEASE

send the game information all at once—it is harder for me to keep track if I get it in dribs and drabs. That information will then be relayed to the Normal Review Group, where they, you, and I may discuss the setup. Although you are encouraged to have your setup reviewed for balance beforehand, we often do that also. Please note that Large Normals are not separated from Mini Normals in the review queue, so it may take awhile.

When your turn arrives, I will give you powers to start a sign-up thread in the queue forum. Players need to /in for games there, not here.

If you need anything that's urgent, PM me.

What, exactly, are you doing in the newbie games? If you're playing them, then those are not considered commitments as far as the modding rules are concerned, but if you are modding or backup modding them, my judgment call is telling me that you have a bit of a heavy plate.

Those are questions I'd have to double-check with mith to be 100% sure about, but I don't think so for either. Kinetic and I discourage running two larges at once, though.

Availability of the players is their responsibility. If they're not ready when you are, either put them on a replacements list or take them out.
