You can sign up after the game has started, but you'll be placed at the end of the rotation until a new year begins.
When I get home this evening, I will use those random number generators I have to randomly select our first year and also randomly order the first Turn Order.
Now, I had planned on re-ordering the participants every year, but I can also do it after half of the year's nominations have been replaced. What do you guys think?
In the Results page, I will post all of the selected year's nominees and you'll be able to look at it as reference before picking your choice. I'll probably close this thread and start a new one for posting your choices once the game begins. That way I can go over the rules in specific, give you the link to the thread and that should hopefully make it easier to find what you need by looking at the very first post.

That would pretty much throw the old strategy from the other game out the window and open a new, more cautious strategy. What if you trust the person's choices you're passing it to but the person following him makes decisions you just can't stand. The former has a serious incident to attend to and the latter makes the choice the baton-passer didn't want. The possibilities, the upsets... this could be very good if we mixed the two ideas together.

I guess, to speed things up, we could split participants into teams or groups. There will be a general order in who in the group goes next but if the person doesn't respond in a timely manner then a team-member can take their turn. Hm?
