Werewolf needs fresh blood. ;)

sign me up though I are not fresh blood

Roa_Aoife 02-15-2007 09:48 PM

Just so everyone is aware, I will not be around during deadlines- I work from about 1:00 PM GMT to 10 PM GMT, and that's not counting travel time. I'll try to be on before I leave for work in the morning every Day. Also, I'll be as late as I can for the start of everyday, but don't count on me after 5 AM GMT. I turn into a pumpkin if I stay up much longer than that. (Sudden thought: Attack of the killer Were-pumpkins?)

I'll add as much as I can in that time frame. And I'll work during Nights as well to make sure I've got something to post as soon as I can get to a computer at the start of the day, so noone be surprised when I have a long post starting every Day.

Macalaure 02-16-2007 09:34 AM

Just so everybody knows, the people that have a question mark next to their names in the players list are the ones who are only able to join if the game doesn't begin on the 19th, but a week later.

Mithalwen 02-16-2007 09:50 AM

If it starts this week coming - I have a long standing prior engagement on the Friday (23rd?) so if that is day I may be in stuck - not sure if the Sunday was the first day or when the roles etc will be sent out... also I don't know about work yet ..If I am not working you will see more if I am necessarily less:(

Lalaith 02-17-2007 12:36 PM

Ok, I haven't played since last summer (too busy) but it so happens that I have got a bit of free time this week.
So, if you're starting quite soon, Maclaure, I'd like to join.

It's not looking very good, actually.

I have 10 players right now (11 with you) and 13 if I delay the start for one week. I'm aiming for at least 14, better 15, players. So unless a heavy lot of people join tomorrow, I'm afraid I can't start very soon. :(

Hookbill the Goomba 02-17-2007 01:51 PM

So... for the first time in... a while, I'm throwing my lot in with the WW gamers. I hope it's fun. The last time I played it was so humiliating and a complete failure. :(

So... Shall we have some balloons.

Legate of Amon Lanc 02-17-2007 02:26 PM

I hope this one will be good. I really wanted to try WW for some time, and this time Macalaure did a good job by PM-striking people, hitting the good ground :D And seconding Hookbill, as a newbie I hope it wouldn't be a fiasco (or "spawnkill" :) ) for me.

Now, as I said to Maca, if somehow the game is started this week, I'll be 99% unable to participate. This is possibly my last post here until next Saturday. If you don't see any more posts by me in this thread until Sunday evening, assume I am MIA and if you decide to start the game, I am out and have to wait for next round :(

Rikae 02-17-2007 04:48 PM

All right! A chance to haze...er, welcome, some new WW-ers! :D

Kitanna 02-17-2007 05:37 PM

If this game doesn't start by Feb. 24 at the latest I may have to pull out. I'll be going on my spring break soon and during that week I won't have more than fifteen or so minutes of computer time a day.

Garin 02-18-2007 02:40 AM

Thanks to those that personally messaged me.
I would like to participate.

Macalaure 02-18-2007 02:45 AM

This is turning into a real balancing act. :D

So... 24th is next Saturday.

Of those who liked the start to be delayed for one week,

Legate said he would be back next Saturday - check
Lommy said she would be away til Sunday
Kath didn't tell me a specific date

I need feedback from you two. Can you play if I start the first night on Saturday 9PM GMT? Or, in the worst case, would it be a problem for you if you miss the first day?

EDITS:
This will probably mean that the game starts too late for Lalaith. :(

Yay! Welcome, Garin! This would make a village of 14 - enough to begin (if nobody needs to leave again) - finally... ;)

Garin 02-18-2007 02:54 AM

Spoiler Alert!
 
I do have a 100% lynch rate to uphold.

Macalaure 02-18-2007 10:23 AM

Game thread is now up.

(Don't be annoyed by that Macalaure-guy. I have a feeling he will come to a very bad end... ;) )

The Saucepan Man 02-18-2007 11:51 AM

I thought that this one was starting a week ago, so didn't sign up as I have been away for the last week.

Am I in time to join, or have the roles already been sent?

I am in the mood for a spot of Werewolfery. :D

Macalaure 02-18-2007 12:08 PM

15!
 
The game will (most probably.. :rolleyes: ) start next Saturday, so you're perfectly in time. :)

Lalaith 02-18-2007 12:14 PM

Can you keep me in as a questionmark, please? I really would like to play, and will do my best, although I won't be able to participate as much as I usually do.

Macalaure 02-18-2007 12:17 PM

Alright. :)

The Might 02-18-2007 05:09 PM

Hi, I have been here for some time now but I didn't join the game till now caues I wasn't really sure what to expect.
Anyway, after getting the PM I though I should at least give it a try...so here I am.
Also, excuse me if I make mistakes, I'm new and not really sure what the rules are ;)

Macalaure 02-19-2007 03:05 AM

I'm happy you're giving it a try! The rules are here. Never mind if you mix things up. All questions can be asked on this thread or be pmed to me.

I have to say that, after player recruitment was sooo slowgoing in the beginning, a pretty attractive roster has assembled itself now. Several new players, several people who haven't played in a long time, many proven veterans. I'm very optimistic this will be a good game. :)

Thinlómien 02-19-2007 06:59 AM

Hookbill, Sauce, Lalaith, Garin and Legate playing... I can't miss this! If you others don't mind that I might miss Day1 (or post only a little if I manage to find a library) I'll certainly be in. And I might recruit one newcomer-player more to the cast if Mac does not mind.

Macalaure 02-19-2007 07:27 AM

The more the merrier!

If you're successful, we are now at nineteen players! Most excellent!

Shall I include a fourth wolf to balance things for the baddies? :confused:

Kath 02-19-2007 09:43 AM

Mac if you start Saturday I can play. :)

Rikae 02-19-2007 02:21 PM

In reply to the rules --

can I pretend to be offended? It's kind of expected of me -- wouldn't want to get lynched for not being myself!

You'll have to be offended if you want to survive... :rolleyes:

Macalaure 02-19-2007 02:57 PM

She who pretends to be offended shall be lynched first! :p

Not by you she won't. :p


...neither by me. hehe... :rolleyes:

Brinniel 02-19-2007 06:52 PM

After much deliberation, I've decided to give these werewolf games a shot.

So...here is some more fresh blood, and another member who isn't quite sure what to expect... :rolleyes:

EDIT: I've just been informed by Rune that he plans on joining as well. :cool:

Durelin 02-19-2007 07:04 PM

Yayyyy Brinniel!

I was wondering when you'd be talked into WW. :D

Brinniel 02-19-2007 11:22 PM

Hehe, yes indeed I have been persuaded. Though, I admit I've been curious for quite sometime...

I'm glad to be finally trying this out. Hopefully it shall be a good experience. :)

Macalaure 02-20-2007 02:28 AM

Yoo-hoo!

Now we're 20 (if Lalaith doesn't call off). I think this definitely justifies a fourth wolf/faithful!

Gil-Galad 02-20-2007 09:30 AM

alright, i am back now and ready for the game

Nogrod 02-20-2007 11:37 AM

Well this looks impressive indeed! I can hardly wait 'till Sunday...

But as I tried it in the last game, I'll try again a bit more easier involvement-tactics this time around - it didn't work the last time as I got to flood the thread yet again in the end. This time I will try not to. So just don't lynch me because I'm not flooding the thread with ten pages of analysis or plans / Day... :D

That doesn't guarantee re-reading my posts wouldn't be a considerable task. :p

Mithalwen 02-20-2007 12:05 PM

Under the old pals act would you like me to withdraw since you now have so many players? I will do the best I can but due to a longer working day on this assignment and uncertainty over lunchtime access it is likely to be much more limited than usual - also I may be carless and therefore accessless depending on MOT.... I signed up expecting to play this week and now it is looking iffy....

Well, I would definitely rather see you play than see you not play, but since I have so many players, your withdrawal would not cause any problems.

It's entirely up to you and how you feel about it.

Don't worry, Nogrod, I'm here. I'm sure I'll manage a way to analyze your posts. ;)

Glirdan 02-20-2007 04:41 PM

Gah!! I'll accept the invite Mac!! It's been far too long that I've played in a game!! But I'm going to let you all know that my posting won't be frequent. I have school and other stuff. So, add me in!!

Thinlómien 02-20-2007 04:57 PM

Mith, you know we'd prefer to have you in the game, but like Mac said, it's up to you. :)

Lalaith 02-21-2007 04:17 AM

Lommy, you are too kind.
Mith is currently being horribly bullied by me, to play. Let us see if all these different tactics have any effect.
