Missing out on most of the forum games is upsetting and a bit annoying. It bugs me to log on in the morning to a handful of pings only to see that I've missed out on a bunch of fun, neat activities (again). It doesn't really inspire me to stick around and play more, or log in more than once per day to make sure my pets still have food, unfortunately.
I wish that fast-moving forum games were announced a bit in advance (like a day at least) so everyone would have the chance to log on at the proper time to play or even decide for themselves that they don't want to play instead of "Well, that could have been fun. If only I happened to be online at the exact time that was posted I could have participated."
I apologize if this sounds a bit ranty. It's my natural morning state. ^^; I just think it would be fairer to all to announce all these fun forum games in advance.

Truth to be told, I kind of agree with this one! OuO
If it's possible, the speed games had some kind of announcement before the game time, I just missed the pick door game in merely 10 minutes because I was asleep! XD

I have tried to announce things beforehand and it didn't seem like it helped at all with people participating. That was awhile ago though when I was doing forum games every night...so maybe people just got burned out. I'll try and start announcing them beforehand though...although I'd like to point out that the only 'fast' forum games that we've had are the Franken Pet and PAD game. Everything else has been a slow game this festival, I will say though that we're doing the egg bidding game on Saturday. I will make an announce about it when I post today's game.

Ah yes! I know you always have like an announcement beforehand! OuO
But how about make the announcement like a day earlier? So people with short online time and very different timezone can see the notice longer so they can prepare better for the fast game! :3
