I certainly hope that it doesn't take that long to finish this round!!!!! I'd like to be done before 2009! That may not happen though!

I guess we should not make them this long in the future, I mean it is not really fair to the people waiting to join a game.

Or maybe we should have some relatively strickt deadlines?

Sure, well, in general the termines were at maximum 3-4 days for making a pic and 2-3 days for writing a description. It's just that not all the time one can do that, which is explainable. However, I would still encourage everybody to do their turns as soon as possible (but not at the expense of the quality!). At least at the beginning of this round, I think we were actually going pretty fast.

Now you have the chance to prove yourself and get it done in no time, Rune

Now, I'm not sure if you've done it thus far, but it might be reasonable to put a reminder about the deadline in every PM you send to the participants.

At least with me the thing is, the longer the round takes, the less funny the result seems to be.

It's a bit unnerving to me that I have to draw next! From what Lauri said, it seems to have taken a turn for the... well, it's gone crazy...

Let's hope that more people can get these things done sooner.
