Correct. Most of the time @EyehatethePEexam PE revealed the info soon after the reveal. He never exceeded the 24 hour limit.
Lynch was announced around 8 PM, night kill was announced early in the morning. If it was information I wanted to make sure got out there I shared it between the lynch and night kill, if not I waited until mid-morning- roughly 12 hours after it was revealed to me.
 
Got it. I understand now.
For whatever it's worth. I think the deadline should be "before the next lynch" not "24 hours from receiving the info".
In this case that was the same thing; @EyehatethePEexam PE would have been in compliance with either requirement. But depending on when the mod give the vision to the Cassandra, that could be very different.

I can see that wording reducing the chances of an unwanted outcome- I'd be on board with that.
 
In theory, I can play next round with a similar level of activity as this last round. Of course if **** hits the fan I'll have to drop out.

Speaking of which, I strongly recommend that everyone's employers takes all those government cybersecurity precautions seriously. Especially if they work in critical infrastructure.
 
I'm out for the next round; too many things going on IRL.

Cybersecurity is no joke, you have to practice safe SECs.

My company had a ransomware(maybe?) attack last year. There was actually a big effor to beef the cyber security over the past few years and had recently had a 3rd party consultant / audit before it happened.
They don't share the details, but they were able to get back up and running. CEO gave a lot of praise to the IT security people.
 
I'm in for next round.

I don't work in government and most of the projects I've worked on recently are schools, daycares, churches, office buildings and warehouses. To my knowledge, our company has never been hacked, but maybe that's because we're low on the target list.

We got hit 3 or 4 years ago by a phishing ransomware scam. Fortunately my company is conspiracy level paranoid of this type of thing and our IT guys were able to revert to a version of our entire database 15 minutes prior to the guy clicking the scam link. IT made it a priority to create fake phishing emails and if you clicked on one you got a sit down talk with the group of fellow idiots, do it twice and you get to sit down with the CIO, I don't know what happens the third time. I got busted twice; now I just delete haphazardly...if it's not worth a phone call or text it's probably not worth my time.

Fun fact- the guy that clicked the naughty link that caused the near-shutdown was promoted and is 2nd in command. Don't do smart things kids, it doesn't pay.
 
I'm in but Monday-Thursday I have meetings and will be checking in erratically. Days without shenanigans- 24 and counting.
 
I'll likely be super busy next week. I'm in for a round, but may occasionally forget.

Or, do we still need a mod? I could mod a no-frills/lackluster storyline round.

I'll be out of town Friday afternoon through Sunday though, so the "weekend" may be Friday-Sunday if the game extends over the weekend.
