Game scheduling
A way to keep up with start-ups/duration of games...

Just a kinda random thought for the day.
Wouldn't it be helpful to pm's and players if there was some way that pm's could co-ordinate the start up of the games? Seems like it may be helpful to be able to sort of spread them out a bit. You know, so that there aren't a whole bunch starting around the same time, or long periods of time with nothing going on..
Such as maybe... admins create "fake" user account that pm's could send info. about their planned games to. With their planned start-up dates and how long it's planned to run. The admins. could then use a calendar type thing to post the info to. Then players and pm's could see how much activity/games are planned for certain times. It wouldn't have to be real specific, just a general idea. And the game/pm's identity would not be revealed.
This way, a pm would be able to quickly see the best month, week, or time of year to start his/her game.
Is there somewhere that this is already done? If so, where?
What does everyone think? Don't you think this would be helpful?
I realize there's no way to be absolutely sure that the info. received would be 100% accurate all the time, but I think it could be set up where it would work.
