Subject: Acka: This Must Be Fixed

I just realized that it has been more than six days since I announced
the beginning of Round 2 of Mediocrity, so by the Rules I'm removed
from the game, and _another_ round ends ignominiously.

IMHO, the game implementation, as it stands, is broken.  I think what
it needs is something more like the *ping* rule, where instead of the
round ending automatically after six days, after six days any player can
note that the Moderator seems to have disappeared, at which point the
Moderator is removed from the game, and the player who pointed it out
becomes the new Moderator.  Or something like that.

Of course, we can always make it like every other game and give it a 
Referee instead.  Anyone have any preference?
