Great players thus far. Unfortunately, I have already made werewolf commitments that i am already worried about properly contributing to.

I was hoping to have Morm take my WW Sr position but I guess he's involved in this one now.

I've wanted to be in a game with Feanor, well just because. Nice Avatar.

Good luck all.

Gil, try not to be so Gilesque.

You honestly can't expect me to do that Mith, or to even play nice, :D :p .

Azaelia of Willowbottom 03-12-2006 05:41 PM

Well! I've been redirected from the other WW thread, as there's no room in the current game, and I must say, this game looks very, very fun. I'd love to join in: I haven't played a back-to-the-basics game since the games were basic, haha. So if there's still room *hopes* sign me up, please!

As for double lynchings, my vote is a resounding no. I want my own hopelessly ironic death, thanks, hahaha. And this village is shaping up to be pretty small, so we don't want anything to speed up our demise. heh.

Just an advance warning to all that my voting behavior will probably be a little strange: expect some oddly-timed votes since 6:00 pm GMT is about 1:00 pm EST (at least according to the time converter website), which means I'll still be in school, and unable to reach a computer, so early votes are going to be the way to go for me, pretty much across the board. It probably means that I won't be showing up until rather later on in the day, too. If you think this will hurt the game, Mith, feel free to tell me to sit this one out. If I want a game perfectly tailored to my time schedule, I should mod it myself :rolleyes: :p

Which means they can lynch me for the WRONG reasons? Thanks a million. :rolleyes: *points to sig*

That said, I'm excited and can't wait to get started. I haven't played a game since well before my vacation.

*jots Boromir down on her "kill as soon as possible" list*

Just kidding. :p

Maybe.....

JennyHallu 03-12-2006 06:18 PM

I'm in EST too, Azaelia, so I know how you feel. Luckily, I have no problems with slacking off at work, so it all works out.

Diamond18 03-12-2006 06:22 PM

I'm in the CST, so most days the deadline will fall just before I have to leave for work, giving me time to at least pop in, if not wax poetical. I am not an early riser. :) This upcoming Friday and Saturday will, unfortunately, be hopeless, but maybe I'll be dead by then anyway. Not that I advocate killing me. I just won't be present to witness the actual deadline. :p

Boromir88 03-12-2006 06:24 PM

I am also EST, so will most likely have to vote 5-6 hours early.

Feanor of the Peredhil 03-12-2006 07:13 PM

I'm EST, but I'm a college student which means that sleep is optional and hours are odd. Generally, I'll be around for whatever I need to be around for.

Azaelia of Willowbottom 03-12-2006 08:09 PM

Well! That was encouraging...So long as we all look suspicious together, no one will think it's odd. :D

Except for the fact that there's THREE of you :p

Man, I wish my schedule allowed for me to play. Looks like a great game. :(

Firefoot 03-12-2006 10:48 PM

CST for me
 
Place me on the list of people who will be voting 6-7 hours early, with limited discussion for several hours prior to that.

no promises :p

you see garin, it is hard for me, because one game i played as myself, lynched first day, next game i tried to be more reasonable and make reasonable posts, lynched first day, so i always end up getting lynched for the stupidest of reasons, one game i just tried to have fun and i lasted till the end, though my last game i was so confused


i am Mountain Time... an Oddity here in the downs though....

As am I. But usually any time is decent for me.

Lalaith 03-13-2006 10:15 AM

Mountain Time...that sounds nice.
*imagines Gil and morm skipping over blue peaks with Heidi and Julie Andrews*

JennyHallu 03-13-2006 10:30 AM

Wrong peaks...

Think more Lewis and Clark and their intrepid band of explorers, searching manfully for the Northwest Passage...

Except that's too far north for Morm...

(But the image of Morm skipping is lovely)

Mithalwen 03-13-2006 11:46 AM

Zali!!!! Lovely .......


Well I have started my new job and sinceI finish at 5 ish......

If I said that I could delay the deadline to 6.30 or 7 maybe even 7.30pm GMT ie 1.30/2.30 EST would that enable people to get on at lunch time? hoping that on the nights the Seer and wolves would not keep me waiting so long :D Pretty please?

Is there anyone apart from me not in North America!!!!!?

Oddwen... I suppose ther is no chance you could manage...I know we don't have a great survival record on each other's games........ ?

Unfortunately, the only way I can be helped is if it is moved to something like 9:30 GMT. Otherwise my vote will only come relatively earlier in the day... :(
CST+school=very bad for WW games...

Sorry because I don't have net access at home 9.30 is too late since by time I posted the death and got home it would be nearly 11pm and I wouldn't have eaten and I would miss ER, Desperate Housewives and House.... :(

Gil, you are preaching to the choir. It's not easy being G.

I just see you being way too silent and I learned that it is best to be yourself.

If you want to shout - shout already,

If the idiot villagers decide to lynch an innocent, the hell with them...

It beats remarks such as "the werewolves are trying to kill innocents." (paraphrase)

What the hell is that?

EDIT: MST for me too Gil.
Since I'm not in this game this will be my last comment on this thread.

JennyHallu 03-13-2006 01:50 PM

Actually, I was the remaining werewolf in that particular game, and I had been doing a fairly good job of killing off the other werewolves...

Nogrod 03-13-2006 01:59 PM

Mith!

There is at least one other player not from the North America... And for me, the later, the better - as I have sometimes long days at work, and my chances to go online during the day are quite random (during school day -recessess, at best 10 minutes / time). So 7.30PM GMT is good (9 would be even better... but clearly not possible)!

When do we start? I counted 11 players by now.

Well I don't thinkI can go later ...... realistically... since I will be leaving home at about 7.30 AM but I think I can manage 7.30pm without starting to resent it.... :D

And Garin.... please stop squabbling ...... :D

Mithalwen 03-13-2006 02:10 PM

I will send out roles tomorrow and wolves will be able to confer. If we have the full set by then - great if not... we will go with 11 and no double lynchings under any circumstances.... if we have 13 I think I will allow one double lynching in the game like playing the joker...with retractable votes you should be able to make your minds up...

Firefoot 03-13-2006 02:37 PM

If it is moved to 7:30, I'll be voting about seven hours before the deadline, since I have to vote about 12:30 GMT.

Mithalwen, I don't expect you to bend over backwards to do this. I'm in a really bad spot, and I'm mostly letting everyone know where I'm at.

Kuruharan 03-13-2006 05:49 PM

Due to the volume of requests made to my person...one of them being from a rather unscrupulous individual who I actually do owe a favor :rolleyes:...I'll throw my hat (hood) into the ring if there is still time to do so.

I hope you (and you know who you are) are happy now. Just no complaints if I wipe the floor with you.:p ;)

Firefoot 03-13-2006 06:23 PM

Nice to see you around, Kuru!

mormegil 03-13-2006 07:04 PM

I am excited to have you in Kuru.

Feanor of the Peredhil 03-13-2006 08:26 PM

Kuru! I've not played with you since the very beginning. Let's hope this time you don't convince the only other villager to kill me. :D

I won't be able to get on during lunch... My school has a strict computer policy... Wish it was next year already so that I could be in college and set the limits myself. *sigh* On most days, I may not be able to get online until 5:30 to 6:30 pm EST.

ETA: Mith, Firefoot's right. There's no reason for you to go out of your way to accommodate the inconveniences of our time zones. I, like Firefoot, am just trying to put my restrictions out there so everyone knows the whys behind my behavior, and to perhaps save my own self from getting lynched on the first or second day due to my voting times.

Oddwen 03-13-2006 09:59 PM

I'd really really really really like to Mith...but the only time I would have would be two hours in the morning EST, which would be 11 am GMT...not really a good time.

Kuruharan 03-14-2006 12:28 AM

Hmm...this is a bad omen. Everybody seems happy to see me. That means I will either die in short order or make a complete fool of myself (and the two are not mutually exclusive.)

I know... it was depressing that my infallible logic didn't work. "I know you're innocent, and I really know that I am, ergo Kuruharan's not."

Can't wait to start!

JennyHallu 03-14-2006 07:43 AM

Yay! Welcome, Kuruharan! I've never gotten to play with you before...but then again, this will be my third game and there are a lot of people I've never played with before...

Can't wait!

That certainly is bad, we can't have that. Last game I remember playing with you the wolves had you totally running around in circles. Kuru, so I'm unhappy to see you and I abhore this game now :p .

This is now more or less my dream team...... Oddwen .... pretty please ...everyone but Nogrod will be voting hours early so you won't be the oddwen out.. (sorry) .... thirteen players would be perfect...

JennyHallu 03-14-2006 12:13 PM

Feanor of the Peredhil 03-14-2006 12:13 PM

C'mon Oddy... you and me and Kuru. Just like old times. You know you want to. :)
