On the subject of claims (and whether or not we should be making any at this juncture), I'm going to put my stamp on that topic. In the interest of fairness to those of us with lives outside of this forum, I personally would like to call for anyone who has an instantaneous resolving ability that requires a timely response on behalf of the target/recipient to at least partially claim such.
I'm not asking you to claim your ability, but merely that you have such an ability, and how much time it gives the person to resolve. For example, you might say "yeah, I have an ability that, if used, requires the recipient to respond within 8 hours or something vaguely bad happens"
This would let everyone know that they should make an effort to check the game once every 8 hours, as opposed to the default and flawed assumption of "Oh, if I have 72 hours till deadline, as long as I post the mandatory minimum of 3 times before then I am good, and don't need to push myself to be more active than that."
I think it is very important that we at least give ourselves a fair chance to react to hot-potato-like mechanics. The mod is obviously content to let us die without sufficient notice, but we don't have to abide by that if everyone cooperates to tell each other what the real expectation of activity is this game.
