I don’t really understand why we allow micro sized games to be run outside of the micro queue. I think it backlogs those queues. Obviously this is pointed at the Normal queue because it is the only one with an appreciable amount of micro games being run in it.
That being said, I do think the Open queue should have a dedicated micro slot. Many of the open game setups are smaller games. If any queue outside of the dedicated Micro queue should have a micro slot, it is the Open queue.
I do think there is something to be said about the quality of the Open games floating through the queue. Just because a game is Open, doesn’t mean it’s fun. I think a lot of open game designers strive for certain theoretical win percentages rather than trying to design a fun game that is capable of being run when everyone knows everything.- gobbledygook

Oh really? Admittedly, I have not taken a look at the two queues or the current games. That type of back log makes sense though from what you’re describing.In post 244, northsidegal wrote:
to the contrary, i find that the open queue is so backlogged that non-open micros find themselves backlogged by the micro opens that otherwise would have been in the open queue. i think a situation like that is taking place right now.In post 240, gobbledygook wrote:I don’t really understand why we allow micro sized games to be run outside of the micro queue.

The use of Weak in the Weak Hider role seems to conflict with the current Normal definition of Weak. We should name it a Pacifist Hider with the Pacifist modifier being one that dies if it targets a role capable of killing.
That might mess up Detective investigations and may “re-break” the setup. Either way, discussion for another thread I think.- gobbledygook

I think if people were willing to let others run their setup could help this issue. I never understood why more people don’t do loan out their setups.In post 267, Alisae wrote:Like

Which is odd because it used to be the most frequented game queue.In post 325, skitter30 wrote:mini theme has been super slow over the past few months (barring a few exceptions)
i would say almost as slow as open queue- gobbledygook
