Werewolf LXXXIV - Middle Earth in Fifteen Minutes

[Shastanis Althreduin]

Hello and welcome to Tol-in-Gaurhoth LXXXIV - Middle Earth in Fifteen Minutes. While this game will be Tolkien-oriented, there will be a large (read: megamassive) element of parody, courtesy of the book Movies in Fifteen Minutes, copyright Cleolinda Jones. All scenes will be taken from said book and tweaked to fit the situations in which you'll find yourselves.

Rules - normal, standard rules apply.

Roles -

1 Seer - Galadriel.
1 Ranger - Aragorn.
1 Hunter - Legolas.

1 Heir - (explained below)

3(+) Wolves - actual wolves, not orcs or trolls or suchlike.

Depending on the number of signups I receive, I may add another wolf.

---------

The Heir - The Heir is a special role, randomly assigned to an ordo at the beginning of the game. The Heir will not be aware that he or she is the Heir. Regarding the Heir's function - the Heir is nothing more than an ordo until the first non-ordo dies. At that point, the Heir takes on whatever the non-ordo's role was - either becoming a Seer, Ranger, Hunter, or Wolf. In the narration where the Heir's power activates, the role of the deceased player will not be revealed.

DL is currently set to be 10 pm CST, but if this a problem for anyone please let me know as it's easily changeable on my end.

Any questions, feel free to ask. :)

Signups:

I said I would take a break....but I changed my mind. :D

And your new role is brilliant, I wish I had thought of that!

[Loslote]

If this starts after the sixteenth (which, at this point, looks rather likely) then I'm in. :)

[Shastanis Althreduin]

It definitely won't start before the sixteenth. And Lottie, I adore your location. :D

Excellent; thank you!; and I forgot to mention that I love the 'heir' concept. :D

[Boromir88]

Wants in and wants this Heir. :D

[satansaloser2005]

It's times like this I remember why I love you so much. Cleolinda=<3.

Also, I'm totally in.

[Nerwen]

Count me in, as always, my king.

[elronds_daughter]

I would love to get in on this...

Welcome aboard! If you're new to the game, there's a sticky thread at the top of Middle-Earth Mirth that could be a big help. :)

Also, I'm the host of your first game so I get to nickname you. I'm thinking something along the lines of Rondi.

I like Elra, personally, but that's me. Of course if we don't use it I can just make a D&D character from it, so either way, really. ;)


Also, hello, fresh meat. Glad to see more people on board! :D

<sweeping bow> Whatever you wish, O Great One.
:P

It is my first game, but I've read all the rules, and I followed the last game pretty closely. This should be fun!

I like her. Can we keep her? :)

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

I don't want to miss this. Sign me up, Shasta!

Two games in a row? This takes me back a few years. :eek: ;)

[elronds_daughter]

Sally, I like your nickname for me better. (Also I like your idea for it if Shasta's a meanie about letting us use it.)

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

It's a wonder more people don't call you Arwen. :p

[elronds_daughter]

It's a wonder more people don't call you Arwen. :p

If I recall, way back when (when I was actually really active here...I remember when this game started, if that gives you any idea how long ago that was), I started going by "eddy" just as an abbreviation...not sure I want to revert to that. But I made a point that I was Elrond's other daughter. I have never been Arwen. :P

[satansaloser2005]

All those in favor of Eddy/Eddie say "WOLF!"

:Merisu:

Heh. I am, of course, teasing you. I vote that we call you whatever you like (that makes sense, of course, or else we could end up with another me=Stan thing :rolleyes:). :)

[elronds_daughter]

Heh. I am, of course, teasing you. I vote that we call you whatever you like (that makes sense, of course, or else we could end up with another me=Stan thing :rolleyes:). :)

Of course. I was merely playing along. :) (o.O ...you were Stan? Gracious.)

I did like Elra better than Rondi (sorry, O Great One), mostly because the latter sounds too much like Rhonda, which is a name I've never really liked.

[Shastanis Althreduin]

I think I'm just going to call you Elronhubbard and have done.

[elronds_daughter]

I think I'm just going to call you Elronhubbard and have done.

Oh gracious. I think I have brought down wrath on my head.

[A Little Green]

Screw school, I'm in. Sign me up, son. :cool:

[Loslote]

Grumble-grumble-never-should-have-said-anything-grumble.

I like her. She's fun. I vote her for Best Newbie Appearence since...erm...well, for a while. :p

++Elra for name

[elronds_daughter]

I like her. She's fun. I vote her for Best Newbie Appearence since...erm...well, for a while. :p

Awww, thanks Lottie!

EDIT: And Sally. :)

[satansaloser2005]

Seconding my beloved Pop. We likes her, precious, we likes her very much. :)

EDIT: x'd with Elra

[Inziladun]

Go ahead and put me down for it, if so. Things are looking to be fairly busy the next week or two, so don't look for anything like the activity I had last game, though. ;)

Noted.

[satansaloser2005]

Come on, people, let's fill this game up! At this point it's unlikely we'll be starting before Thanksgiving, so there should be plenty of people around to play! Sign up!

Also, I'm still rather giddy over this concept. I may go read some Cleolinda now. :)

[Boromir88]

Aye I was just checking to see when we'd be starting since I was going to be gone for Thanksgiving, no internet access until Sunday. Also, will still have to fulfill my jury duty, so with the late DL it won't be a problem, however, my activity will be down.

[Shastanis Althreduin]

Well, surely I can get at least twelve people? :confused: I know my last game wasn't the greatest, but really...?

[wilwarin538]

You're last game was great! And I'm sure people have just forgotten there should be a game right now. Facebook advertise it and you'll have plenty of people!

[Nogrod]

As the starting of this game seems to have been postponed from what I thought it would be, you can count me in. My problems with too much RL-duties should be over in a few days... *phew!* :)

[Shastanis Althreduin]

Player list updated.

[Inziladun]

So, we're waiting for two more people, are we? Anyone got any lines on an arm or two you could twist? ;)

[Shastanis Althreduin]

:confused: Where is everyone?

[A Little Green]

I can bug Lommy if you like!

[A Little Green]

Update: bugged Lommy. She said you can count her in!

[elronds_daughter]

Just to let everyone (especially Shasta) know, if this gets off the ground this week, I may only be able to participate minimally until Sunday (several big projects due this week, and my music department's big Christmas concert). But I shan't be absent, and I shall try to be as talkative as I can. :)

[satansaloser2005]

I....erm, I sort of have no webs at home presently....*shifty eyes*

[Thinlómien]

Yes, sorry for taking time to sign up. I meant to do it for days but I never managed to log into the 'downs because I thought I would have to get myself updated on everything once I do that so I figured out I don't have the time... :rolleyes:

Anyway, now I'm in and enthusiastic about starting. :D

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

How comes I haven't paid attention to this? The thread started such a long time ago, back then I didn't think about it, and later I thought you have already started and that you must be by the end by now... but seems there was still signing up! Okay... Shasta, when are you planning to start this, actually? I might consider signing up, if you still need people, and what more, if there is still space, I might try to talk Ozzy into coming back - he said he'd like to play at least one game again before Christmas, but depending on how it fits his timetable, which has been rather busy... so what says you? Any prognosis?

I was waiting to start until I had twelve people, and I still don't, Legate. Unless you're signing up. Then there's exactly 12. But by all means talk to Ozzy - the more the merrier!

If you're signing up, this can start as soon as I get a 'yea' or 'nay' on Ozzy. :)

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

Okay, I am going to tell you ASAP - preferrably today. Consider me signed up, so you can start your preparations :) I don't give much hope to Ozzy having time just right now, but who knows.

[Shastanis Althreduin]

Duly noted, sir. :) I'll give you/Ozzy about half a day more to think about it.

[Nessa Telrunya]

I'd like to join in! :Merisu:

[Shastanis Althreduin]

Awesome, Nessa. :)

[Shastanis Althreduin]

All righty. Time for signing up is done - this game starts with Night 1 tomorrow at 10 pm CST.

[Ozban]

Sorry for replying so late, but I have been quite busy these days.

I'd really love to play again, but my exams are coming up, and therefore I can't afford to get addicted, as I did last time. :D Hopefully next semester will be better.

Enjoy the game, I'll try at least to observe.

[Boromir88]

Shasta is unable to get to a computer tonight and so Night 1 will be beginning tomorrow.

[A Little Green]

Am I messed up or is it the system? As in, should the Day have started already or what? :confused:

[Nerwen]

*a voice from beyond the grave answers hollowly*

Nooooo.... the sun will never rise... this is the Dawnless Day...

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

Well, from his user profile it seems that Shasta was around like five hours ago (which I think is when the Day should have started already, no?). Probably some net trouble, does perhaps somebody have the possibility to contact him?

[Boromir88]

Day should have started. I have his number, I'll try reaching him.

[Shastanis Althreduin]

I posted a post at the start of day and it seems to have been eaten. :(

So here's what I'm going to do - Day 4 is going to last an extra six hours.

Eomer (Galadriel) is dead. Day 4 starts and will end 30 hours from now (on Monday).
