Wizarding Rummy

Rules: here.
Time limit: You've got 24 hours to respond to your question, this may be cut down to 12 hours, depends on how the game goes.
Play: I will start a new comment thread for each player, everytime it is your turn to take an action I will comment at that thread. Please reply to that thread and not the post. I will also have a separate comment at the end of the post for any questions, etc.
More can be found in the rules.
Players: seaborne, __megh and cinnleigh.

If you do not respond I will track you down else where! Swears! :P (And if some of you don't want to play, then please comment here)

Extra: If we all have fun and want to play again I have about another 114 questions, not typed up, which are either harder or easier (these were the best questions) and we could play again, but not for points. We'll see how this game goes!

having to skip you as you've not replied! sorry!

Re: __megh

[http://users.livejournal.com/__megh/]

I'm sorry! I never got the e-mail and I hadn't checked it :[

Re: __megh

[theaeblackthorn.livejournal.com]

Well that's strange, you should have.

Hm.

*sits and thinks about this*

I'm really thinking next game? we play in partnerships! then either person could answer!

Re: __megh

[http://users.livejournal.com/__megh/]

Well I don't know. That would be good except what if one person was online like before the other person and they answered all of them? That wouldn't be as fair. I think doing it solo is good because you have to keep up and you get to do everything on your own so if it's wrong it's your responsibilty rather than someone else's

Re: __megh

[theaeblackthorn.livejournal.com]

this is true, I hadn't looked at it from that angle.

I'm just a bit...yeah...about the speed people are replying at.

Maybe if I changed it to 12 hours instead of 24?

Re: __megh

[http://users.livejournal.com/__megh/]

yeah I think you should do that, because it is going really slow, maybe with more people it will be better. although i do like this game alot

Re: __megh

[theaeblackthorn.livejournal.com]

would you be more annoyed of missing a go if there was a 12 hour rule, or of having to wait for other players with the 24 hour rule?
