I'm pretty bored right now....
If you live in, well, lets say the UK, and you log on at the hours of 3AM to 9AM Dome Standard time, what the fuck are you going to do? How will you buy things? How will you get beer? How will you feel cut off from the real Roleplaying and ambiance because the MOO is run out of California?!
You will feel like shit.
It is hard enough for some of our timezone players to find a human to RP with. I will not stand to see them loose even the shallow pathetic interactions that Rychek provides at 4AM when all us GMs are asleep.
A better solution would be to have shifts. TO have more than one NPC. Withmore would be a 24hour society anyhow. But, alas, I do not think the DB can deal with it at this time. Perhaps. Johnny will have to say...
