I was so happy to find that, after about 20 hours with no internet, I was still alive in game 9872. I joined it, and it took many hours to start and by the time it had started my internet was already down, so I missed the entire first day and did not vote. But thankfully it is back up now and I am still alive! One reason I was freaking out about it is that I dont have enough t's to join another game right now, so am banking on doing relatively well in this game to hopefully earn enough t's to keep me going :)
