To Be Played: More than Once a Week

Sometimes I have a week holiday and I want to burn through playing a session of DnD or what have you more than once a week, but unfortunately I cannot search for anyone similar to me because apparently people only play Roll20 campaigns: 1. Once 2. Weekly 3. Biweekly 3. Monthly There should be way more options, something as simple as every X days. Or "as often as possible", or stuff like that. Like I said, especially students or other people with longer summer holidays (or unemployed or retired, etc) this would be very useful as perhaps I have time to do 30 hours of DnD a week. Indeed I bet if you had a graph of time played (I mean if you're collecting how long we spend in the Roll20 table thing page you might as well let us graph it) you'd find that people often play more than once a week, in fact I'm willing to be that it's highly unlikely people play only one day a week.

Y'know what sucks about English? "Biweekly" means both "two times a week" and "once every two weeks." ~_^ Sure, that's not "as many times as possible," but it's a start. (The latter definition is chiefly used in the UK, but that's still English.)

(The latter definition is chiefly used in the UK, but that's still English.) I agree those terms ARE used interchangeably, in different places. But if you wanted to standardize, if biweekly means twice per week, then bimonthly would mean twice per month (effectively once every 2 weeks) thus negating the 2nd meaning for biweekly and fixing that. Of course then the language needs a new term for "once every 2 months"...
It does say "Every other week" rather than biweekly in the Looking for Group, but that raises a point I never thought about English before, how confusing. "Of course then the language needs a new term for "once every 2 months"..." If Fortnight is two weeks then Fortmonth is two months!
Also another suggestion, if there are multiple replies to a post I don't think I should have to click view message to make the notification disappear...
