The Broken Souls? Sounds quite unnerving! :eek: :D

[Mithalwen]

Eomer, you may want to know that I am modding the next game here and it will be small and basic - ie Seer only gifted , more or less on the original BW rules.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

I'd love to play in that game, Mith. Thanks for telling me. :)

I would have liked to play in Nilp's game too (which might run at the same time) but seeing how I played in the current Werewolf game I think I should not take a place there.

Mith, are you thinking 12 players?


EDIT: Sorry, it's probably bad form to speak about the next game just now. :o

[Valesse]

I'm giving a heads up for the next Day of play (March 2nd) I will probably not be very active because its my birthday! :D But yeah. I'll make an honest effort to snag a computer during voting/deducing-time.

[Sleepy Ranger]

While hidden clues would certainly be very helpful, the moderator is supposed to be impartial and generally anything s/he writes is not meant to give hints towards anyone's role. (Have there been precedents of this kind of hinting from the mods in other games? From the games I've played in, there have not been, and in some cases the mod even gave a disclaimer that none of his/her posts contained clues. Maybe if we could get a little disclaimer or something from Sleepy on this to tell us whether his posts are valid clues or not?)

Are my posts valid clues? Perhaps... I'll tell you this much, whatever I say could mean anything. It depends on how you read it and what you want to believe. None of my hints will be solid and they could mean anything, so think before you do anything. Because who knows, maybe I'm not pointing out what you believe I am. So basically whatever I say could have a double-meaning or you could be missing what I'm trying to say all together.

Good. I was hoping they were that subtle. In other words, it's not really worth it to break our brains over them. Stick to the discussion, folks, is what I say.

Well, I'm kind of relieved too. It would have taken brains the size of a planet and all the 24-hours / day to go through all the possible allusions - and their reversals...

But they, or the confusion about their status, sure "helped" at the first day madness. There was something to do! And maybe there will remain some tracks for later days... Happily we didn't kill anyone on the basis of those bad-leads.

Anyhow. The death of a wolf was taken from Sleepy's hint in the end!!!

[Valier]

The death of a wolf was taken from Sleepy's hint in the end!!!


I'm not sure what you mean by this. I thought Sleepy was clear.

[Nogrod]

I'm not sure what you mean by this. I thought Sleepy was clear.

I'm not sure, whether you are serious, or then just riddling... But wasn't the theory about Ka taken initially from the Cupid's arrow at Sleepy's description?

Or is it just, that you haven't read the posts? :rolleyes:

And if you were just pulling my leg, then... I deserved it.
(I can only defend myself, that you had no smilies in your text: what a poor defence that makes!)

[Valier]

Thanks but I was just confused I thought you ment for us to look at his end post.I get what you mean now. Even though the arrow thing could have been a fluke.:p :rolleyes: (There I added some smilies for you)

[Nogrod]

I get what you mean now. Even though the arrow thing could have been a fluke.:p :rolleyes: (There I added some smilies for you)

Surely it could. And that was, why I so wondered about it (to go to such extremity, as to bold it!!!)

Thanks for the smiles! ;)

[Roa_Aoife]

The arrow thing was kind of vague. After all, very few people knew of the relationship between THE Ka and Sleepy. To those that did, it was kind of an obvious clue. And I think the last one that obvious that we'll get.

[Naria]

I am only going to do this once. I really don't think that anyone should be posting in here to discuss any part of the game till the game is over. Keeping our discussion and theory's until the next DAY in the game.

Thanks :)

[Thinlómien]

You're right, Naria.

Just to inform you, tomorrow-Day I will again appear for the first time some 7 hours before the voting time. So no need to wonder my absence.

[littlemanpoet]

Hah! I expected this. I'll take it as a back handed compliment. It was fun while it lasted. I look forward to seeing how this plays out.

[Valier]

Thanks for the heads up Oh Mod of awesomeness!! (I can call you that right?):D :)

[Sleepy Ranger]

Thank you to the person who neg-repped me.

http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showpost.php?p=449224&postcount=716

That dis-proves your statement about no prior statement being made against the mod-god issue.

[Sleepy Ranger]

And note to my neg repper- Experimenting a new technique with the players comment. Tell me, what do you have against that?

[Valier]

Did anyone stop to think that Mod-God may be offensive to some people. Expecially if it has some thing to do with their R.L beliefs. I'm not saying this is the reason why, but it is something to consider.:)

[Valier]

I did consider that, but

a. it's faintly absurd

and

b. Sleepy should have made it clearer. As it is he's behaving like Mussolini after a few gin-and-tonics

Yes I do agree with you on this though! I do think it is a bit sudden and harsh. Wonder if the death post will be up soon.........

[Sleepy Ranger]

Even the phantom didn't display such ridiculous megalomania. Surely the demon drink is the likeliest explanation...

Shame no back-up moderator was named.

Sleepy Ranger, when you wake up in the morning, have a drink of water with some lime in it and then come here and apologise. If you insist on pursuing your ludicrous aims, you may find yourself without players. No Werewolf strike has occurred before, but there's always a first time.

And that would be a shame, because I'm rather enjoying this game so far, including the narration...

I said IIRC, which stands for 'if I re-call correctly', which obviously I didn't. And no I am not drunk, I am under the legal drinking age and have not abused the law. Its a shame people can't accept one little request I made...

If you want me to apologize I shall provided I get one for being bashed. Those last few posts were a joke in referal to the last two days of my life, now this here is probably my mistake since I have a weird habit of intetwining my life events into my posts. So here you go, I apologize for the mis-understanding but I am not changing my opinion on mod-god, I do not wish to be called and I've been through a lot in the last two days (quite a lot of which was good but meh, I'm worn out) and the insistence of people to call me such is aggrivating as is your direct attacks at me.

So there you go, I've apologize and even if it was in a 'Simon Cowell-ish' manner it still was an apology.

And Jenny, kindly stop commenting on my neg-rep, that is solely for the neg-repper to respond to if he or she wishes to do so.

Taking Valier's comment into consideration, yes, I do find mod-god offensive as I'm an atheist and do not like to be referred to as god. Yea it would've been easier to state this in the start but meh, I don't usually tell people that I'm an atheist.

Oh and Jenny, I did not directly attack anyone on the issue (The Valesse matter was just a joke with her, feel free to ask her), so technically all I did was post a reminder that I should not be called mod-god.

EDIT: I'm leaving this post up because I believe I'm owed an apology.

[Kath]

Just poking my uninvited head in to say please don't let this turn into anything like what just happened on the other werewolf thread.

Sleepy's apologised. Please accept it and leave it from there.

[Roa_Aoife]

I've deleted my post, and I apologize to Sleepy. I didn't really mean that as an attack, just a mild jab, and I'm sorry that such an avalanche got rolling from it.

[Roa_Aoife]

Also, I would very much like for Sleepy to continue the story as he orginally planned, and I think it's a shame that it might not continue over such a mis-understanding. (I really want to know what those red makrs are about, too.) And I did like the idea of this all becoming a short story. Really, it sounds pretty cool if you think about it.

So, I suggest we vote, and if enough support the idea, maybe Sleepy will continue.

I vote that the original story returns, and that this becomes a real short story.

Right... if theres going to be a vote, lets see, passed by simple majority, all who vote against will NOT be used as a character in the short story and instead a generic character will be picked. You may vote for, against or abstain and the votes by those not in the game will not be counted.

Also for the motion to be accepted I will need Anguirel to offer an apology. And also if the neg-repper wishes (not required to bring back the original format) he or she may reveal their identity. I will not, I repeat, will not take any action against you. I would just like to know who you are.

[THE Ka]

If a writer puts to paper a folly, it is of no surprise that his critics will be as well in their judgement.


That is all I wish to say upon the matter, dears.

Sincerely,

Ka

[Anguirel]

Also for the motion to be accepted I will need Anguirel to offer an apology.

Well, that's nice and specific, and leaves me with the choices of either ruining everyone's fun because of pride, or being completely insincere. Ah well. Here comes the lesser evil.

I'm sorry. Do short-story-ise it, my gallant chipmunk.

[Sleepy Ranger]

I'm sorry. Do short-story-ise it, my gallant chipmunk.

Seeing how you were the only person not to have apologized you were the only person mentioned. Alright now that could be read in two different ways, depending on the tone.

Well, that's nice and specific,

Either way this is a complaint at being the only person asked to apologize.

and leaves me with the choices of either ruining everyone's fun because of pride, or being completely insincere.

Now here you either refer to your own pride and say that you'd be insincere.
Or you're saying that my reasons to ask you to apologize are pride and insincerity.

Ah well. Here comes the lesser evil.

Again, this statement will not change much either way. By this you could mean dumping your pride and apologizing would be a lesser evil.
Or you're saying if you had to choose between apologizid to a proud and insincere person and spoiling everyones fun then you'd pick the former as you see that as the lesser evil.

I'm sorry. Do short-story-ise it, my gallant chipmunk.

Now the meaning of this line would change depending on how the rest of the post has been said. If you truly are aplogizing then the 'gallant chipmunk' is obviously a bit of humor.
However, if your post was not intended as a true apology then the last sentence is a massive insult. For not only would it be a mock apology but in slang terms 'chipmunk' stands for arrogant. Of course I doubt anyone would bother using such a subtlety just for an insult but... *shrug*

If you really do apologize then I accept it and believe we should forget the past, this goes to you as well JH, though that may have been a bit of an over-apology. :p And you as well Roa.

So then, *raises glass* to a better game!

Note: No, just because the apologies and such have been done does not mean anything will be re-implemented untill a simple majority gives its approval.

[Anguirel]

I didn't know there were any connotations to the word chipmunk...I was just trying to reinstate the lighter vein...let's amend it to three-toed sloth...

[Sleepy Ranger]

I didn't know there were any connotations to the word chipmunk...I was just trying to reinstate the lighter vein...let's amend it to three-toed sloth...

I figured so, its not really a common expression and the complete meaning is rather obscure but I still am interested in what you meant by the rest of it. Which part of my summary held true?

[Anguirel]

The truth was, I was a bit bitter at being singled out, but the insincerity I referred to was my own, not yours.

Worry not, let's be done with emotional chess and slide back into slaughter and revelry.

[Sleepy Ranger]

Worry not, let's be done with emotional chess and slide back into slaughter and revelry.

I've explained myself for signling you out but I agree, let us go back to the awesomeness that is death. I shall go re-write Valier and W_Q's death right now and re-implement the red marks and 13, if the people playing don't want those they may make their voices heard. Really if someone wants to neg-rep me for trying out variations to freshen the game by all means they may do so.

Anguirel I'm sorry for singling you out but you were the only one left, I hadn't a choice but I'm glad we're all willing to put this nonsense behind us and go back to the fun.

[Sleepy Ranger]

New death posted, enjoy it.

[Anguirel]

I will be active only in the early part of tomorrow and will vote extremely early, I'm afraid.

[Naria]

New death posted, enjoy it.


Way better death scene Sleepy! I love it. It's sooooo deliciously sick!!

[Sleepy Ranger]

Way better death scene Sleepy! I love it. It's sooooo deliciously sick!!

DEATH, ahem, is in the air! And your feedback is appreciated, everyone leave feedback on the deaths, constructive criticism is appreciated. Its good to know what people think.

[Encaitare]

Just to let everyone know that I'll be out late tonight. Depending on whether I can get online tonight, I might not be back until tomorrow morning or afternoon.

[Nogrod]

Just to let everyone know that I'll be out late tonight. Depending on whether I can get online tonight, I might not be back until tomorrow morning or afternoon.

What should that be in GMT? I really suggest, we should use GMT in all the questions concerning time. Otherwise it gets quite problematic. As everyone doesn't know everyones' geographical place, one's evening could be others morning... so for the other it is tomorrow, for another it's the same day...

I too will be hindered by RL in couple of days to come. I probably can be in the game at the starting of the gameday, and then sometimes during the day. We'll see...

[Encaitare]

It's currently an hour and a half before voting closes. Sorry, I was thinking in EST.

[Gil-Galad]

sorry about me not posting, i was up north for 2 days and i just returned right now


EDIT: so sorry guys, i might not be able to post till late in the day for next evening starting now, i'll try to get on earlier but no promises

[Eonwe]

Let me say right off, I'm very sorry for being so neglegent in this game. I think I only posted once yesterDay. Spring break is proving to be allot busier than it should be. Hopefully I will be able to get down to the real business of spring break, namely wasting time playing Werewolves with those truely brave souls on the 'Downs. ;)

[Roa_Aoife]

Right, I'm going to be traveling most of Monday, so I may not be able to get on untill late. Possibly not untill Tuesday. Sorry!

[Naria]

Sorry about not voting today. RL son's birthday,a little more important than ww. Sorry again folks :D

[Sleepy Ranger]

I may not be able to post the death on time today due to unavoidable reasons so if you don't hear for me till at least half an hour past the start of Day, begin posting.

Since all the gifteds have sent in their pick here is the wolf kill- Naria

[Sleepy Ranger]

Alright I'm back, the death will be on time.

[Sleepy Ranger]

We need to stretch this...

Get my death up, Sleepy! I'm curious!

I've been writing it for the past hour and I haven't had any interruptions. So thats one hour of non-stop writing. If you don't enjoy this ending I promise you shall die slowly and painfully, I'll put my watch and warrant on it! :)

[Mithalwen]

THat would be me and I will be opening a separate recruitment thread as soon as this game is formally over. I do invoke the Divine Right of Moderators and I want everyone to be clear on what they are signing up to. However request noted.

[JennyHallu]

Yes, ma'am, MithelMod, ma'am! *salutes* I will be waiting in eager anticipation!

[Sleepy Ranger]

Enjoy the end of WWJ V!
Constructive criticism on my writing would be appreciated! :D

[THE Ka]

Constructive criticism on my writing would be appreciated!

C'EST NULL! BAH!... You are the worst thing to happen to the act of writing since the Marquess of Queensberry!


Just joking dear, it was wonderfully done. At moments when it seemed there might be a plot fall, you swooped in with a twist and clue. To write is a great thing, most people just make words... Or are forced to droll their life away with thesis papers.

the only thing that I might advize is a clearer means of ending of sorts, for further games contruction and passing of the Mod staff... But that is just my opinion, and it is your work to how you deem it. Anyways, it was wonderfully written and proved most excellent an entertainment whilst in the thesis paper pit.


Hope to see more from you my dear!

...Even if you decided to render my legs useless for a second time in my life... :rolleyes: ;)


~ Aesthete

[Roa_Aoife]

That was well done. The ending left me a bit confused (random SPM cameo) but you managed to be grotesque with out over doing it. I was impressed. ^_^

[Mithalwen]

Recruitment for the next WWJ game "Return to Midsomer Mawlin" is underway on a separate thread.

[Nogrod]

I have given this some thought now (well, that's not to say that much, but some).

We all seem to be quite unanimous about the first day in WW-game to be quite a frustrating one: where people really can't quite play, and they have to wait for someone to do something somewhat radical to make the discussion going (and that someone then gets lynched just by opening the discussion).

Could this be changed? Could we get some "real stuff" in the air on the first day too?

What I was thinking, was, that the moderator, as s/he gives the roles, would simultaneously send every villager a dream (could be tied into the overall storyline) where they saw either a wolf going on a villager, or two villagers running away from an unknown wolf etc. The idea being, that some of those dreams might be true, some would be partly true and some just pure nonsense - and the wolves would come in to have their own, invented "dreams" during the day, that they would try to use to their advantage.

I think that would give the first day a totally new twist, but at the same time the mod should be really careful about the ratios of true and false dreams. If they almost all are false, no-one believes them and it's just as good as nothing, if they mostly are true, they could reveal too much, at least as the game goes forwards (or then not: the basics of the game is lying anyways - and the wolves can have their say on the overall confusion)?

So what do you think? Is it any good idea to begin with? How should we stipulate the ratios: totally true, halfly true, totally wrong - or should we have only one or two kinds of them?

I would like to try modding at some time this spring, but would be just as happy, if someone else would like to give this a try (for I wouldn't be ready to do that in some time from now on - and I quess there is something of a queue to mod these games)

"What say you?" :p

[Garin]

I do declare Nogrod that is not a half bad idea, a lot of work for the mod, though.

[Valier]

Great game Mith! I shall be modding the next up coming game.

Please stay tuned!!!:D :smokin:

[Sleepy Ranger]

Great game Mith! I shall be modding the next up coming game.

Please stay tuned!!!:D :smokin:

I'll join only if the deadline suits me, unless people don't mind me being in-active most of the day and voting really early. :)

[Telperaca]

Err... I'd like to join in the game, if it's okay?

Bear in mind, I've never come across this game before... so I might totally be a flop at it on the first trial... though it's okay! I'm okay to embarrass myself this once only! :rolleyes: ;)

[JennyHallu]

Please put me down as a possible. I may or may not join, depending on details and whether the Senior game finishes up fairly quickly now they're down two wolves. Farael's modding next there, and I'm not sure where I'd rather play.

[Telperaca]

:eek:
::Panic attack::
You're experienced...!
:eek:

[JennyHallu]

Telpie...I've been in all of three games. I am intensely flattered that you think of me as experienced...but I wouldn't worry ;)

[Kitanna]

Sign me up for the next game. It's been a while since I played two games in a row.

[Valier]

Ok I will be posting the thread soon, so everyone can get an idea as to what is going on.

I will need a minimum of 15 players before we start. I live in cst so I don't know how this works for everyone else. I will more than likely have the game start at about 5 pm cst that is 7 est I think (correct me if I am wrong)

LIST OF PLAYERS SO FAR

Sleepy?
Telperaca
Kitanna
Jenny Hallu?
Farael

Any questions will be answered on this thread and not the game thread I will be posting shortly.

This will be a HOBBIT settlement, so pick appropriate occupations.

[JennyHallu]

That would be 6 PM EST, and perhaps even more useful, 11 PM GMT.

[Sleepy Ranger]

That would be 6 PM EST, and perhaps even more useful, 11 PM GMT.

That means I'll be voting 4 hours before the deadline and not be active until around 9 hours before the deadline. If anyone believes that would pose a problem then I guess I'll withdraw.

[Telperaca]

Oh...

Okay, I'm in GMT zone (-England-) and I can only post while I'm at school, so basically almost every day apart from weekends. :p

I'm really looking forward to this. :D

[Valier]

I have now posted the thread for this game in Middle earth Mirth

I will try to acommadate everyone to some dgree with the time. Will later be better for you Sleepy?

Please do not post on this thread yet!!!!!! Just here!.....for now:D

Please do not post on this thread yet!!!!!! Just here!.....for now:D

Earlier would be better for me actually. I'm GMT+3, do the math yourself! :P
However as long as people don't mind me voting early I can't see any reason why there should be any problems.

[Farael]

Please put me down as a possible. I may or may not join, depending on details and whether the Senior game finishes up fairly quickly now they're down two wolves. Farael's modding next there, and I'm not sure where I'd rather play.

Jenny, you rather play in my game!! and you too Valier, so tell everyone who the werewolves are quickly. Actually, I was thinking of joining up for this one, but I have a big project to finish for Friday so I won't be able to =( If you desperately need someone, drop me a PM and we'll see if I can join in though.

[JennyHallu]

I don't mind you or Telpie voting early, as long as we know upfront that that's the plan.

I may end up occasionally voting maybe an hour or two early. 4-6 is my commute and argue-with-hubby-over-who's-making-dinner time, so I may not always be able to get to the computer.

[Valier]

I cannot possibly make it earlier, I want to make sure I have time to post. I get home from university no later than 4:30 my time. If the other players do not mind if you vote early, I don't care either Sleepy.

[Telperaca]

I don't mind either. ;)

[Valier]

I will be waiting a while before I start the game Farael, I am currently.....busy;)

So if noone hates me for it I will probably start some time next week perhaps.
It's not concrete, but I will wait until we have the appropriate number of people before I start.

[Sleepy Ranger]

Actually, on second thought but me down as a probable because odds are ME Idol will start sometime this week and when it does I'm not really sure how active I'll be in WWJ (odds are I'll be at least moderately active). So depending on when we're starting I'll decide. (ie; if we're starting before this game I'll have to drop out unless I'm really really needed to play)

Sorry.

[Valier]

HA HA I'm flooding the thread!!!

There shall be eight gifted

3 werecats
1 cobbler
1 seer
1 ranger
1 hunter
1 apprentice

I know, I know, theres alot but I like them!
BE aware there will be some changes to the roles!

[Cailín]

*hisses quietly* Focus, Valier. We still have wolves to catch in Loversville. ;)

[Valier]

Not a problem Cailin! I can do many things at once!!:p :cool:

[Farael]

Alrighty!! Pencil me in... if the game is over-booked I shall step down, but if not I will be the town's pet werewolf :D

[JennyHallu]

Hey, Val, I'm not sure but that I shouldn't step down. I am promised for Farael's game, and while I fear that shall leave me WW-less for some little while, I don't want to let him down.

[Diamond18]

Still time to join? I hadn't intended to play another one so soon, but I saw "Werecats" and squealed. So. Aye?

[Valier]

Your not too late Diamond18 I will put you on the list.

This game will not start till at least next week, I hope you aren't in too much of a hurry.


List of players

Teleperaca
Kitanna
Diamond18-Barmaid
Farael?
Sleepy?
JennyHallu?
Nogrod?

Please let me know if and when I can permenently add you three to my list.(Far,Jen,Sleepy)

[Lalaith]

Valier!!!
What Cailin just said....

[Diamond18]

Next week is great. I still need to recover from Midsomer Mawlin, anyway. I just didn't want to miss out on Werecats. :D

And pencil my in for being a barmaid. (Is this okay? Rosie was a barmaid in the movie, so I figured it would fit in the hobbit village.)

[Valier]

Valier!!!
What Cailin just said....
Hey don't give me a hard time! I said before I can do MANY things at once.I am fully aware of my responsibilities else where! I am working on both!:)

[Anguirel]

Good luck Valier-alas my trip to Italy in a few days means I can't take part, but I'll read your game with great interest once I'm back.

There are few greater kicks in life than modding Werewolf...enjoy...

[Diamond18]

Should I ever mod a game in the future, you can be sure that Wereducks will come into play one way or another. Just giving everyone fair warning. I hope this doesn't result in a banishment from ever getting the chance for modding duties. :p

[Nogrod]

I've played three games in a row now (well, the first three of my life anyways), and could retire for a while. But we'll see... it's kind of addictive. :eek:

If we really are starting only the next week at earliest - and Farael does not insist me going to his game, I might be coming in with this one. I kind of would like to try that "senior" WW too. But there's such a megalomanic game going on, that no-one knows, when it ends.

So Valier, count me in as a reserve to begin with. (I know my involvement with Mith's record-game started with almost the same reservations). Your first post on the thread looks good!

PS. Welcome Telperaca! Nice to see new faces here - and not to be the only newbie around... ;)

EDIT: I didn't forgot you Diamond and Jenny... It just sounded better that way, in singular form... :D

[Valier]

Nogrod I have added you to the list above with a ? for now. Let me know otherwise.:)

[Valier]

Just wanted to keep this thread active so players can sign up:D

List of players (Needed at least 15 to start)

Teleperaca
Kitanna
Diamond18-Barmaid
Farael?
Sleepy?
JennyHallu?
Nogrod?


So the first three are for sures? and the last four are maybes?


Come one, come all! You know you want to play in my game.....it's gonna be fun........I promise! With all the twisted stuff I can come up with guaranteed!:p

[Nogrod]

One way to keep this thread alive would be kind of informing us newbies, what the apprentice and the cobbler are and how they function in the game - or to give us a link, where to find that information... :)

[Mithalwen]

Samwise Gamgee is keen to mod a WWJ game but not til May.

Is there anyone in line after Valier?

Diamond - were you volunteering :D?

[Mithalwen]

this is what you want -roles (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showpost.php?p=417056&postcount=4)

[Valier]

Good thinking Nogrod! But since I have changed the roles some what from the norm I am reluctant to post them yet. I can however post the rules and such if others would care to see them, but it may ruin the surprises.:p

Xposted with a bunch of posts.


I can post the roles and such if it's wanted

[Nogrod]

I would also like to give it a try, at some point. I would really like to come up with something over that first day misery, trying to give it kind of more heart-pumping twist from the start (if I'm modding, I shan't be there to be hated by all to begin with and to heat the discussion up :D )

Just thinking about those ways still...

[Nogrod]

this is what you want -roles (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showpost.php?p=417056&postcount=4)

Thanks Mith!

PS. Valier: no need for closer explanations, as yet... :)

[Mithalwen]

And this (http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showpost.php?p=389684&postcount=302)

[Valier]

I will answer any questions regarding my game. I would like to know if players prefer double lynching or retractable votes. There will be only one though, so I will leave that up to you players to decide.

[Diamond18]

Samwise Gamgee is keen to mod a WWJ game but not til May.

Is there anyone in line after Valier?

Diamond - were you volunteering :D?

Actually, yes. :p If there's one thing I know how to do, it's write death scenes. Plus I have a feeling it might be more fun to be all-knowing.

"WWJ -- Things That Go 'Quack' In the Night" coming soon-ish!

[SamwiseGamgee]

Yeah, so as Mith said I'm keen to start a game of WWJ in the first week of May. As long as I'm not ousting anyone. We can play it by ear as to whether it's directly after Valier's- it'll depend on how long her game lasts etc..

X-Posted with Diamond18: I bow to you and shall take my place in the line. :)

I like retractable votes.

Oh, and Nogrod, if you want to Mod after Valier, I could go after you. If you want to test your First Day idea I'd like to see how it works in case I'd want to use it.

[Diamond18]

X-Posted with Diamond18: I bow to you and shall take my place in the line. :)

I'm not sure how long a WWJ game usually lasts. I guess we did zip through Mithalwen's game pretty fast, but I was thinking we'd be able to play Valier's, and Nogrod's (if he's ready) and mine all before May. Is this crazy?

[JennyHallu]

Probably. I think there might be time enough for two games and end in early May, but three would be pushing it. Notice we zipped through Mith's game, and it still took 5 days to play to completion.

[Mithalwen]

I think Samwise got in before Nogrod?

So:

Valier
Diamond
SamwiseGamgee
Nogrod

[Mithalwen]

[QUOTE=Diamond18]I like retractable votes.

that figures!!!

also it took longer to organise than to play I think - recruiting and that was even with issuing roles as soon as I got 13 players. I really want to get my RPG set up so I shall take a break but I some of these ideas do look good.

[JennyHallu]

When do we get the rest of your awards and such, oh Moddess Goddess that was?

[Mithalwen]

I was going to do them now but got distracted. May have time for a few now...

[SamwiseGamgee]

Ok. Well I'll keep an eye on this thread and whenever WWXIX has finished I'll start recruiting.

[Nogrod]

I think Samwise got in before Nogrod?

So:

Valier
Diamond
SamwiseGamgee
Nogrod

Surely is.

I'll mod one as there is time, and I have some ideas.

Haven't asked this yet, but it might also be possible, that we could mod a game together with Lommy... after that you would know, what the word "flood-posting" really means! :D

[Kitanna]

I will answer any questions regarding my game. I would like to know if players prefer double lynching or retractable votes. There will be only one though, so I will leave that up to you players to decide.
I hate retractable votes. (curse your games Mithalwen! your stupid retractable votes are always my downfall)

[Mithalwen]

but I don't think it was entirely the fault of retractable votes..... :cool:

I have to say they are perhaps only appropriate for small games... the idea of modding a game of 20 with them is terrifying.

[Valier]

I have to say they are perhaps only appropriate for small games... the idea of modding a game of 20 with them is terrifying.


I tend to agree with this^ I am a little wary of trying retractable votes on my first modded game. I do however like the option of being able to double lynch. But in the end I will still leave it up to the players, if they choose retractable votes, I shall just have to suck it up.

1 vote for retractable votes
and 1 against retractable votes

Is this right?

[Valier]

I will be starting my game as soon as there is enough players! I would like to start by monday if we have enough. I need to know if the current players on my list with ? will be playing or not.



List of players (Needed at least 15 to start)

Teleperaca
Kitanna
Diamond18-Barmaid
Roa_Aoife
Farael?
Nogrod?


Also I need more votes for double lynching or retractable votes

Diamond18- Likes retractable votes
Kitanna- Does not want retractable votes
Roa- Likes retractable votes

I plan on making the first day a little more interesting as Nogrod suggested, but not too complicated. I may give hints, I may not..;)

[Roa_Aoife]

Sign me up! I missed a game or so, and I'm itchy to get into another one.

I like retractable votes, since they can help get the village talking. It also makes the game less predictable, since everything could change last minute.

[Sleepy Ranger]

I can confirm that I won't play unless you're in desperate need of a player to begin. Sorry.

[Valier]

I have added you to the list above Roa, nice to have you aboard!:)

Xposted with Sleepy- No problem, sorry to see you go! I have taken your name off the list above.:)

[Nogrod]

Sign me up! I missed a game or so, and I'm itchy to get into another one.

I like retractable votes, since they can help get the village talking. It also makes the game less predictable, since everything could change last minute.

I agree with Roa's statement about the voting, and am very happy to see Roa coming along (unless I would have to play against her again... :p ).

[Valier]

Diamond18- For retractable votes
Nogrod-For retractable votes
Roa_Aoife-For retractable votes
Kitanna- Against retractable votes

What about double lynchings?

[Mithalwen]

I like retractable votes, since they can help get the village talking. It also makes the game less predictable, since everything could change last minute.

You can say that again. Can I interest anyone in some unused death scenes?

[Roa_Aoife]

I'm not really opposed to double lynchings. They can weigh the game in favor of either side, but they do add something interesting to the game. I would think it depends on how big the game gets. A small game, no, a large game, yes.

[Valier]

I agree! We will wait and see how many players we have

[JennyHallu]

I think double lynching and retractable votes are both potentially fun, but I don't think they ever belong in the same village.

Double lynches belong in huge villages, or they are merely a liability, not a tool.

And retractable votes belong in smaller villages, or they are just confusing.

[Nogrod]

Jenny!

I didn't notice you at Valier's list of players... We can't separate our playing history now... :p

[Roa_Aoife]

I don't know, Jenny. The first game I played in had about 15 players, retractable votes, and double lynchings. It stayed pretty even, and in the end it came down to two villagers and a wolf (Ang). It was a pretty good game.

[Nogrod]

Double lynchings bad in a small village, otherwise, everything suits me... but I do prefer retractables in anycase.

[Valier]

As oh mighty Mod-Goddess I say there will only be one or the other, not both! I will have enough to do with all the gifted and surprises.....:cool:

[Roa_Aoife]

Well, then, if the village gets big, I'd say doubles. Otherwise the game will drag on. If it stays small to moderately sized, do retractables.

[Nogrod]

Well, then, if the village gets big, I'd say doubles. Otherwise the game will drag on. If it stays small to moderately sized, do retractables.

I do agree.

[Valier]

Ok I agree! now we just need more players! I can post the rules and such today - the retractable/double lynch until there's all the players, if there wanted.

[Nogrod]

Moddings-list.

Lommy thought the idea of us "double-modding" a game a neat idea. So we could do that, as our turn comes (after Diamond and Samwise)... And as we have quite a time to it - our turn would probably be in May (?) - we could come up with something lots of fun and even more of bafflement. Hope so!

[wilwarin538]

I'd like to sign up please!

I vote yes for double lynching and no for retractable votes.

[Valier]

Up dated list

Players:

Teleperaca
Kitanna
Diamond18-Barmaid
Roa_Aoife
Wilwarin538
Nogrod
Garin
Farael ?

Diamond18- For retractable votes
Nogrod-For retractable votes
Roa_Aoife-For retractable votes
Kitanna- against retractable votes
Wilwarin538-against retractable votes

So that's 3 for retractable
2 for double


P.s Nice to have you aboard Wilwa and Nogrod!;)

[Nogrod]

All those who have being dropped from the Nilp's game: this is your chance to continue gaming! Some of you have already made the sensible decision... :cool:

That is to say, consider:

Anguirel, an Ordinary Villager, was massacred by were-hedgehogs on the second NIGHT.
Eonwe, an Ordinary Villager, was struck by lightning, struck by lightning! on the second DAY.
dancing spawn of ungoliant, a Seer, was taken away on the third NIGHT.
Kath, a Werewolf, was accidentally strangled on the third DAY
Lhunardawen, the Werewolf Beloved, died with his Lover on the third DAY
Eomer of the Rohirrim, an Ordinary Villager, was poked with woodwinds on the fourth NIGHT.
the guy who be short, an Ordinary Villager, was stuffed into a tree-frog on the fourth DAY.
Glirdan, an Ordinary Villager, was consumed by fire from the Mod God on the fourth DAY.
Celuien, an Ordinary Villager, was 'Freud' alive on the fifth NIGHT.
SamwiseGamgee, a Werewolf, was shot by Gurthang on the fifth DAY.
tar-ancalime, an Ordinary Villager, went to the future on the sixth NIGHT.
littlemanpoet, a Seer, was crushed by a boulder on the sixth NIGHT.

[Sleepy Ranger]

After no consideration what so ever I have decided to join >_>... again! >_>
Pardon my inconsistency but I shall stay this time. Why? Because I believe Wilwa wants revenge on me for what happened in WWJ II and no reason to not give her a chance to have her revenge.

So Sleepy Ranger is in! :)

[wilwarin538]

I do want revenge for WWJII, but not against you Sleepy. Eonwe was the one who dreamt of me and revealed my wolfishness. Why would I want revenge against you?

[Sleepy Ranger]

I do want revenge for WWJII, but not against you Sleepy. Eonwe was the one who dreamt of me and revealed my wolfishness. Why would I want revenge against you?

Because of my tom-foolery, arrogance, awesomeness and that double-lynch which could've lost us the game?

I the MOD-GODDESS am now declaring THERE WILL BE RETRACTABLE VOTES, BUT NO DOUBLE LYNCHINGS, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF NONPARTICIPATION. I WILL "KILL" PEOPLE WHO DO NOT VOTE OR POST TWO DAYS CONSECUTIVELY.

I have added you Sleepy to the list...welcome aboard...again!:p
I have also added you Kath! nice to have you playing!:)

[Kath]

Hey all, Nogrod convinced me so if there is still room count me in.

[Roa_Aoife]

Well, let's see. Thus far I've been an apothecary, a protestor, and a baby-sitter.... I think this game I'll do my dream job- a folklorist.

[Sleepy Ranger]

I shall be none other than your town wizard who sends you off on dangerous quests against your will! :D

[Valier]

I don't know about a wizard Sleepy. It is a hobbit settlement and I'm not sure that will work. How bout an alchemist? I just don't think hobbits were wizards....;)

[Sleepy Ranger]

I don't know about a wizard Sleepy. It is a hobbit settlement and I'm not sure that will work. How bout an alchemist? I just don't think hobbits were wizards....;)

[Valier]

It is a HOBBIT settlement Sleepy! Please choose an occupation that would suit a hobbit.:smokin:

[Sleepy Ranger]

It is a HOBBIT settlement Sleepy! Please choose an occupation that would suit a hobbit.:smokin:

I don't recall reading Gandalf as a hobbit... I said I'll be the Gandalf type character...

[Valier]

I don't think you get it Sleepy! ALL the players in MY game MUST be HOBBITS!!! So there would be no Gandalf type character.:rolleyes:

[Nogrod]

I have a problem with my occupation. I've been a tobacco-weed grower already and could now be the ale brewer. But Roa's folklorist made me think of a florist...

So, Valier, please choose the one that seems to suit the overall village better - or which you think, would be more suitable occupation for me.

And a note to all. I will be very busy on monday and tuesday (here in Europe, +2 GMT), and so won't be posting much in the first day - if this starts on monday. So just consider it as one reason not to lynch me because of a very different gaming-style on my part on the first day... :D

And anyhow, which will be the deadlines? In GMT, please.

[Sleepy Ranger]

I don't think you get it Sleepy! ALL the players in MY game MUST be HOBBITS!!! So there would be no Gandalf type character.:rolleyes:

Bah! Hobbits! If I have to be a Hobbit I may as well be the mayor! :)

[Valier]

Both of those occupations work fine Nogrod....But ever given thought to being a podiatrist, seeing as it is a hobbit village?:p

THE START TIME WILL BE: 7PM CST, 8PM EST,1AM GMT.
I will only start the game when we have at least fifteen players.

[Sleepy Ranger]

THE START TIME WILL BE: 7PM CST, 8PM EST,1AM GMT.

And 3am Sleepy Ranger Time, just so that everyone knows I'll vote early.

[Nogrod]

Both of those occupations work fine Nogrod....But ever given thought to being a podiatrist, seeing as it is a hobbit village?:p


I could be that one too... :cool: But maybe the ale brewer would be just fine. If you would like me to be the florist or the podiatrist, they go down well too.

Thanks for the times! Although they will be 3AM here, so I probably won't be voting at the last hours, unless it is a weekend. :)

If we want to start on monday, we'll have some recruiting to do. How actively do you think we others should try to PM players into this one?

[Valier]

Ok, Ok you have tugged at my heart strings....I will make the time,5:00pm Cst
6:00pm EST, 11:00pm GMT. Is this correct? I am CST, let me know if this works better. I will not be changing it again though, that is as early as I can make it.:D

From my point of view, this sounds very nice indeed! If it really gets tough at the late-hours, it would still be just 1 AM here! With retractable votes the timing is more important. But where is the majority of gamers coming from?

Anyhow, this sounds fine with me.

The Day and Night Phases will begin and end at? TBA

[wilwarin538]

That time is fine for me. A little bit of a warning here. On tuesdays I will be voting either very late or not at all. There will also be a day during the week that I will have to vote very early, because of work. But I'm hoping my work nights fall on Game Nights, then voting won't be a problem. So anyway I'll let you guys no ahead of time.

I shall be the town berry picker, very exciting job. ;)

[Diamond18]

Um, Valier, I hate to be difficult, but 5 PM CST isn't really good for me. On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I would have to vote at least 5 hours early in order to get in. But if you extended it to 6 PM CST there's a chance I could get a vote in close to the line on those days.

[Nogrod]

We already know your last instance appearings... :D

But anyhow, from the European perspective, that one more hour is just fine. But I don't know, how impartial these judgements are...

[Alcarillo]

I've decided to join the game, at the request of one of the participants. I've never played a junior game before, though.

The times, however, are a little hard for me to work with. I get out of school just at the time each day or night would end. So I shall support Diamond18's suggestion for a 1 hour later time.

As for an occupation, I shall be a fisherman, if the village happens to be close to a river.

[Eonwe]

Yes! Count me in!

As my time as a wayfareing stranger was cut short in the last game, I will see what luck brings my way this time.

[Valier]

I may change the time to fit with the majority of the players. I will wait till we have a full roster before I choose the exact time.

PLEASE BE AWARE: Naria will be my co-mod for this game. Her word must be followed if I am unavailable. Please feel free to pm me or her with any questions.

I have added two more players....Welcome!!

[Farael]

Hey Valier.... you can count me in... the only thing is that if the village is over-booked I shall forfeit my spot for whoever wants in as I'll also be modding WW XX

I'm definetly in. As for occupation... I'll be the barman at the local Inn.

[Kath]

Occupation, hmm . . . ale-drinker!

[JennyHallu]

I'm thinking this is a hobbit community with a very healthy nightlife...are drunk werewolves as effective?

[Kath]

A bit sloppy perhaps, but wolves can run faster than hobbits even when inebriated, so long as they run in the right direction!

[Valier]

I have asked JennyHallu if she would care to play, since Farael will be in my game. I would like one more besides her to start. I still need occupations from

The game will likely start on Tuesday!! WE NEED 2 MORE PLAYERS!!!

To forewarn everyone, we will start with a DAY phase! The Cats will pm till my death.

[Nogrod]

I tried to persuade Lommy in. She will probably made her decision tomorrow (in about 20 hours) from now.

[Diamond18]

Well, well, Noggie, Kath, and Glirdan. It seems we'll be spending a lot of time in the local tavern together. :p

*looks around* I don't think I've met Formendabras Took.

[Nogrod]

Well, well, Noggie, Kath, and Glirdan. It seems we'll be spending a lot of time in the local tavern together. :p

I'll provide the ale, Glirdan will tend it, with the help of Diamond, and Kath will drink it! That's just fun! We will be the merry foursome at the town...

[Formendacil]

Well, well, Noggie, Kath, and Glirdan. It seems we'll be spending a lot of time in the local tavern together. :p

You might know me from a little Survivor game around this forum...

I'm Formendabras Took, here at Valier's request to give her enough players.

[Garin]

I have had such utilitarian roles up until now ... carpenter, truffle-hunter, surgeon/barber ...

I think I will now be a weathered former mercenary. I just want the fighting to stop, but expect and invite the worst.

Bring it on.

Oh I see. Not only have you a hobbit occupation, but a special hobbit name for the game as well. Impressive! I, on the other hand, come with an existing hobbit name, Diamond Took. ;)

And Garin, I've never heard of an ex-mercenary hobbit. :p

[Garin]

Diamond: True about the Hobbit mercenary role. I know how boring they are. (Except for that saving middle-earth stuff.) Can't I be an Orc trying my best to reform and fit into Hobbit society? I pretty sure I have elven lineage and don't deserve this discrimination. Call me Garin the Green Toothed.

Or I can just be ... the ... um ... a blacksmith. I can fashion everything from horse shoes to blades.

[Diamond18]

Can't I be an Orc trying my best to reform and fit into Hobbit society?

Garin the Tall and Extremely Ugly? :p

I'm one of the Northwest-Tooks from Long Cheese, descended from the right honorable Bandowagon "Bullfeathers" Took.

I say that this is all pertinent to pre-game preparation, and not off topic. :p

[Valier]

Alright I think we can Start Monday at 5:00pm CST we will begin with a Day phase. I will pm roles tonight or Monday morning (for me). I will add Thinlomien to the list if she decides to play before I send out roles. I need occupations still from Kitanna, Eonwe, and Telperaca. Also Garin did you want to be the Blacksmith then? If you do not pick one today, I will pick one for you and it may not be pretty.....:D I will have the rules and roles posted sometime today on the Attack of the Werecats thread.

If there are a few stragglers, who would like to join up, I can still add you as long as I have not sent out roles.

The Werecats can pm till my death.

[Nogrod]

Alright I think we can Start Monday at 5:00pm CST we will begin with a Day phase.

So it is 11PM GMT?


I will add Thinlomien to the list if she decides to play before I send out roles.

I guess she will be online only in PM GMT tomorrow... I could sms her to note about the situation...

[Valier]

So it is 11PM GMT?

Yes it is.:)


I guess she will be online only in PM GMT tomorrow... I could sms her to note about the situation...

Sure! Then I can know if I can count her in or not.

[Nogrod]

Sure! Then I can know if I can count her in or not.

Well, it's something like 12 at night here at the moment. I'll send her a sms, and let's hope she will answer before tomorrow evening...

[Valier]

Agreed! I will be posting the rules and rules for the roles first, giving anyone who wants to join a bit more time.

[Garin]

Valier,
You can keep my original role, I just mentioned the Smith role because Diamond seemed to have issues with the mercenary Hobbit role. Heck, you are the Mod, if you failed to have issues with my occupation than I say we keep it.

[Garin]

Diamond: Garin the Tall and Extremely Ugly?

One out of two ain't bad.

[mormegil]

I'll throw my hat in at the last minute if it's okay.

I'll be a Shirriff.

Hi Everyone!! I will be your friendly neighborhood co-moddess for this game. Feel free to pm me if Valier is offline. I will answer any questions and forward the results to Valier.

Nice to have you aboard Morm!!

Kitanna

We still need occupations from you both. If you do not have them in by tonight, we will pick one for you. :D

Always has...

(I've kept an eye on her Timezones, and yes, she's from Saskabusch- Central Standard Time).

The only thing to keep an eye on is the fact that Saskatchewan doesn't go onto Daylight Savings Time. Since Alberta doesn't change until this coming Sunday, while some of the world has already changed, I'm not sure how that affects things.

For myself, I'll just wait and let Valier post the Game Start at the appropriate time, and 24 hours later, things are a Day gone by...

[Telperaca]

Ohh... A baker!
That's fine! I love bread... I just can't make it.
;)



As for the voting at 11PM, I'm usually not online at that time.
So would maybe lunct time be okay...?
:confused:

[Thinlómien]

It seems Nogrod hasn't posted though I informed him. I'm not playing because I'm on an unprompted lay-off from werewolf.

Have a nice game!

[Thinlómien]

No - wait! I changed my mind.

I'm in.

Darn! WW is addictive.

I'm a postwoman.

[Thinlómien]

(If there's still room... :rolleyes: )

And Kath, I'm sorry I think we will never be able to continue our lovely Lapland -thing... :)

[Thinlómien]

[Valier]

Oh thanks. And I'm sad you're the moddess - I can't suspect you!
Hee hee! Indeed!:D :p

[JennyHallu]

OH yes you can...just look at her! Obviously some strange sort of bipedal feline-ness going on here...she probably instigated the whole mess and was killed to insure her silence!

[Valier]

SSSShhhhh!! Who told you!! It's suppose to be a secret:p

[Valier]

Please Be Aware, My Game Starts With A Day Phase Not A Night Phase! This Means The Seeker Does Not Get A Dream Until The First Night.:d

[Kath]

And Kath, I'm sorry I think we will never be able to continue our lovely Lapland -thing...
I know! I'll try to get a reply done before the game starts though!

Erm, I forget (and am too lazy to skim the thread). Was that 11pm GMT voting times?

EDIT: Ignore that, I've worked it out!

[mormegil]

I presume you will post the official game rules and format at the outset.

[Valier]

Mormegil I have posted the rules and Roles in "Attack of the Werecats: the pppuuuurfect village." It should still be in active topics.:D

[Thinlómien]

OH yes you can...just look at her! Obviously some strange sort of bipedal feline-ness going on here...she probably instigated the whole mess and was killed to insure her silence! Maybe I can, but I don't dare... She can do anyhting to me, you know...

I know! I'll try to get a reply done before the game starts though! :) Don't make yourself if you don't have time - otherwise it'd be nice.

First time I really read through the players list... :rolleyes: It seems we have a nice lot. I look forward to this game and playing with all of you - especially the mighty mormegil I've only heard tales of and the glorious captain of the Ráca.

And Garin I wish you better luck (of course only if we're on the same side) than I had when I was an ex-mercenary - I died either on Day1 or Night2, can't remember which one. And you'll probably need luck simply because you're Garin... :p

[Valier]

Roles have been sent! Please stay invisible for the duration of the game. Pm me if there is any problems. I will post my death at around 5:00 pm CST.

WERECATS MAY PM EACH OTHER TILL MY DEATH.

[Valier]

Day 1 in now in session.Please only use this thread if you are unable to get to a compter or to let others know your voting early etc...:)

[Roa_Aoife]

As I mentioned in the other thread, I have come down with a case of Mono. I'm going to be posting less this game then I normally do. I apologize if this hinders anyone.

[Alcarillo]

Everyday I return from school right at the deadline, every day (except weekends, of course). If I'm lucky I might be able to squeeze in a post, but I doubt it. Right now is when I start preparing for bed. So expect more early votes in the future.

[Glirdan]

I'm letting you all know now, before the Day begins, that I could not come back on to vote as I had to leave pretty much right after I typed up that post. Sorry everyone. :(

[Farael]

Sorry you all, but dont expect me to post again 'till the end of the day and well into Day 3 should I still be alive. Real life issues (namely, studying) keep me from catching up with all that's been said.

[Valier]

Please be aware if you do not vote two days in a row you will be killed.:eek:

[Glirdan]

Ok, I know this has nothing to do with the game, but does anybody know the sign up list for modding for the next few games?? If so, post it. I have another idea for a game that I'd like to try out...but not until the tenth or fifteenth game.

[Nogrod]

As far as I know - with my modest experience of four games - they are kind of reserved here at the WW / WWJ threads. I'm not sure about WW-situation, but here at WWJ I think it's Diamond next, Samwise then and Me & Lommy the third. Then I guess there's a place open... (in WW it's Farael next, then lmp...?)

[Diamond18]

Um, I think I'm after Valier.

And then there's Thinlomien and Nogrod co-modding a game

And I believe that's followed by SamwiseGamgee

Edit: x-posted with Nog... well okay then flip-flop the last two.


As for WWS, yeah it's Farael and then LMP/Kuru co-modding.

[Glirdan]

Ok, well I would like to put my name down to mod the 10th game if that's alright with everyone.

[Kath]

As for WWS, yeah it's Farael and then LMP/Kuru co-modding.
And then me!

[Diamond18]

Glirdy, I think you mean 11?

Right now we are playing #7. I'll be #8, then Sam will but #9 and Thin/Nog will be #10

[Valier]

I remember a time Glirdan that you gave me heck for talking about whose modding next and so on......;)

[Nogrod]

Wonderful gaming Villagers! (well in the end at least)

I'm really following the situation, although I should be sleeping by now... You are doing great! Just one day away from the record of the last game... :smokin:

Maybe we should turn these rules a bit to help the WereX, as they seem to be dying earlier and earlier? :)

No way! Let those monsters burn!!!

[Roa_Aoife]

Hey all, some family business has come up, and I won't be able to post all of Day 3. I will be back on Day 4 (provided I am still alive.)

[Glirdan]

I remember a time Glirdan that you gave me heck for talking about whose modding next and so on...... ;)

Well then we'll call it even. ;) And thanks for that correction Diamond. I'll take eleventh then. I have something in mind that I'd like to try out... but I'll leave you all in suspense for the time being. ;)

[Thinlómien]

Werewolf really is crazy. It's 2:27 AM to me right now and here I sit and wait for the deaths. All my family is sleeping (and hey, I can hear my dad sleeping) and I'm actually quite tired but what do I do? Wait for the deaths. This is just so mindless. But I love it. :p

[Diamond18]

Sorry Thin. I should have changed my vote from you but I didn't think I'd have to, I didn't know Kath was going to get a vote in. *kicks self* *kicks self again*

[mormegil]

Sorry Thin. I should have changed my vote from you but I didn't think I'd have to, I didn't know Kath was going to get a vote in. *kicks self* *kicks self again*

Really we shouldn't be chatting here at all.

[Valier]

Regarding time change

My time here doesn't change, so I am still doing it at 5:oopm my time. I hope this makes sense.:D

[Kath]

So we still have half an hour, yes?

[Roa_Aoife]

Silly Arizona....

[Valier]

Yes there is still half an hour and only Farael has not voted once yet.

[Kath]

Now, now, Valier calm down! Timezones remember! And some players work. Just wait til it gets to evening time, people will appear.

[Valier]

Now, now Kath I have played in a few games myself and 17 hours with four posts seems a little extreme. I don't want to hold up the junior games if noone has the heart to play in mine.:confused:

[Kath]

You didn't play in the other WWJ I was in did you? It ended up like this. Don't fret, it'll work out. And you aren't holding anything up. Games finish when they finish, people are prepared to wait.

[Diamond18]

I would post Val, but for my deadness.

[Roa_Aoife]

I would post, but for lack of anything to respond to. I'm as iritated with the quietness as you. I hate it when all the talkative ones get killed.

[Valier]

I just want to say I don't want the game to stop myself until it's done, I was just saying if most of the players did not want to play anymore I could just shorten the Day and night hours or stop it all together or I can just leave it how it is.
Just giving options.:)

[Mithalwen]

Quietness can be a tactic. It is unfortunate if the talkers get killed or have noone to interact with but it doesn't make it an unloved game. Hang on in there Valier!!!

[Nogrod]

Quietness can be a tactic. It is unfortunate if the talkers get killed or have noone to interact with but it doesn't make it an unloved game. Hang on in there Valier!!!

I must agree with Mith here. As much as I think, that the game should be for those who really would like to participate and talk, then it's a fact, that those will die pretty soon... and that frustrates: you would like to play, but get killed during the night at least.

And it's a very good tactics to be quiet, for you will thence live at least four days or so (wolves won't kill you, neither will the villagers)... even though I don't understand the inner logic of these people who just like to hang around. What's the fun?

So hang on Valier! The game is a good one anyhow! Lots of nice turn-arounds etc!

[Kath]

Hey Roa you could take a leaf out of Lommy's book and just talk whether anyone's around to listen or not.

*hides from a vengeful Lommy and her band of philosphical penguins*

[Roa_Aoife]

I did that yesterday. Septuple posted and everything. (I think it's a record. Ha! Beat that, my chatty pengiun lover!) I think I used up all my energy yesterday, though. And Farael fried my brain with paranoia. :p

[Kath]

She'll take you up on that you know :p

[Nogrod]

I did that yesterday. Septuple posted and everything. (I think it's a record. Ha! Beat that, my chatty pengiun lover!)

I can really sympathize with your situation - as I've followed the thread. It might partly be blamed to the time-zones (I've experienced that myself: being the only one awake and free to post for some four-five hours), but I must admit, that this last day has been very quiet indeed... like my first game.

But whoever thinks and whatever thinks, I like your courageous and thoughful way of playing. I did it already at our first game, and I do still. I'll challenge your record one day - if the wolves & the villagers just let me play a couple of days in any game to come... :)

[Valier]

I will be starting the seventh Day three hours early, I have to leave then and won't be back till way later. I will end the Day at the regular time.
