    Is this a better layout? I couldn't do this while still including the number beside players.

    Planning on running another mini-walrus, limit it to 10 entrants and just four rounds, run it off over two nights


    Is there any appetite to pick up the pace on these?

    It's a natural cycle for walrus. It ebbs and flows as people restock their music collections, think of new categories and creative ways of doing reveal threads.

    One of my favourite walrus reveals was this one :: https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/59/puzzles-other-games/ninja-walrus-reveal-thread-1619962/?highlight=walrus

    The girl basically live streamed her reveal on twitch tv and people would tune in live or listen back afterwards and she posted comments on thread too for people who couldn't tune into the stream. I guess that the reveal was coming from sunny Hawaii helped, but still, it was pretty cool


    But as the saying goes:: if you book them, they will come


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,421 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    There are a lot of free nights compared to earlier in the year. I know there are still a few games in progress, but I wonder if a few of these cold be going simultaneously?

    I’d agree with that

    Well sign ups have closed for the latest one so maybe Homer could open sign ups for his one now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,882 ✭✭✭tusk


    Yeah, I don't see any issue with 2 running at the same time.

    I can do that. Was looking at New Year for the Reveal so makes sense to open up signups now I guess. I thought of some categories but need to check all the previous ones to make sure I'm not repeating any, when that's done I'll try and get signups started this evening. :)

    Not sure how to anonymise the suggestions though; I had a bold idea for a Werewolf crossover, where all participants submit their suggestions via one of the Werewolf Anon accounts and I don't find out who's who until the Reveal is over......but I figure that's far too much of a logistical nightmare. :p Maybe people could submit via Google docs and make up their own pseudonym, and we can find out who's who after the Reveal? Any other suggestions welcome!

    I’d agree with that too. For a large one it’s hard enough to get through one reveal a week. So if there were two going simultaneously it would be no harm. Mr K and Barney opened their nominations two months ago this week

    For mine, sKeith acted as intermediary and collected all the entries, then anonymised them before sending to me. It worked great.

    I'm happy to do that for you if you want! #payitforward :pac:

    We were waiting for the previous one to finish, which it did around a week ago. We should be starting our reveal in the next week or so and hopefully have it done by Christmas.

    Tbf to Barney and Mr K, the previous Walrus was running for about 16 years so I wouldn't really blame them either :D

    Wasn’t meant as a dig!

    Tusks took an eternity which is why I’m suggesting we mix it up

    They don't call me Professor Never for nothin' yall!

    I'd like to throw my hat in the ring to host a Walrus at some point. Would someone be so kind as to add my name to the list - it's been so long since I've made a table around these parts, that I've forgotten how to do it.

    My Walrus sign-ups open. Only four categories and a prize on offer-so you have no excuse not to enter!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Sadly gonna have to pull my name out of the running of one of these things for the time being as I just began work on a new writing project and can't commit to run a Walrus while I'm focused on that. Will still be around to take part in Walrus' and Competitions, but just can't see myself finding the time to host one.

    I've removed my name from the table and given it a bit of an update while I was at it, because I'm helpful like that... ;)

    Given my faux pas earlier I would like to be considered for addition to the bottom of the queue here if I may

    Cheers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,432 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    Given the current lockdown can we get some of these moving or get a few more in the hopper so things can get going again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,421 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Fix and I are going postpone, hopefully will run it later in the year. Please skip us for now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,603 ✭✭✭lassykk


    Updated the table to reflect Kolido postponing and to add myself at the bottom of the list

    I'm sure we could have a few running concurrently much like sheep.. they take long enough to sort out.. plus Sulli still has to do their reveal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    I'm running a Reverse Walrus (a SURLAW) if anyone is interested in joining in on that. Should be a bit of craic if enough people enter.

    https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2058076429

    Sign Up will be open for at least a week and a half anyway, but potentially a lot longer depending on numbers/interest (I'll give fair warning once I have an idea of when I'm closing it)


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,127 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    If lassy and phatkev want to jump ahead of me in the Walrus list please go ahead, I'm unfortunately too busy to run one currently :(
