About yawetag

I am 30-years-old. I live in a suburb north of St. Louis, Missouri. I work in Surveillance at a casino. When I'm not working or playing Mafia, I enjoy Geocaching and umpiring baseball and softball. I also enjoy playing classic RPGs that require mapping on graph paper (Bard's Tale, especially). I have been married since March, 2002, and have a two-year-old son, Sage, and a newborn daughter, Brenna.

Moderating

I enjoy moderating in the Mish_Mash forum. I attempt to moderate games that haven't been played before. I find games that are freely available online and adjust them to work forum-based. I feel I've done a great job in doing so, and have brought some fun games to the site in the process. I will moderate up to four games at a time. Most games take 5-10 minutes to update daily, so this requires approximately an hour of work. The work isn't tedious, but you have to ensure it's accurate.

I've added a twist to the sign-up process to all of my games. Instead of taking the first number of people that /in, I give 48 hours for all players to /in that are interested. At the end of the 48 hours, I use random.org to randomize the list. I then take the list and pick the top people equal to the number of players needed. I feel this makes the sign-up process more fair to players that aren't able to be on as frequently as other players.

At the end of a game I'm moderating, I set up a survey that the participants may fill out. This will give me information on how well they liked the game and my moderating. I use this information to determine whether or not to return a game in the future and, if I do, how to change it to make it more enjoyable for the participants.
