1. Most likely one player. I would have to ask the group first on expanding, but most arn't online right now. 2. First game has already been played unfortunately. Log Horizon is pretty niche, so people come and go but I've kept the game running and three of us have been here from the start. 3. Hard to say. Its pretty free for the most part, but it seems like the players have already guided towards building up the guild and making a council work for the city their in, similar to like the show. 4. Each session runs 3-4 hours. 5. Its based in the setting, but in a completely different city, so none of the characters from the show have showed up. They may or may not, but if they do, it probably won't be for a significant amount of time. (I don't think I could play the characters convincingly to be honest.) 6. I try to aim for 50-50, but it sorta depends. We've had combat-less sessions, but on the flip side did a long dungeon that took 3 whole sessions to complete. (Albeit, that was the point, to prove to the other guilds how capable the players were despite being underleveled for the dungeon). Funny thing, I didn't finish watching the anime until after starting the game too. Just the first season. =)
