Hi Kath and Boro.

I think I'll have the different strains of evil up tomorrow. I need to revise the story slightly first.

Will a 5 PM EST deadline meet with approval?

Definately, though 6pm would probably be better for me.

I second this.

Aganzir 12-19-2008 05:40 AM

Bah I'd prefer the 5pm. :p

What's that in GMT?

Boromir88 12-19-2008 11:01 AM

I believe for

5 pm EST = 10 pm GMT
then 6 = 11

Kath 12-19-2008 11:04 AM

Then I'd prefer the later one if possible because I have a really, really bad time making a 10pm deadline.

Gollum the Great 12-19-2008 06:56 PM

Ok, if anyone signs up late, I'll find some way of squeezing him in. And I'm not going by the story that only a few Balrogs ever existed.

3 Trolls
4 Balrogs
2 Fire-Drakes
2 Winged Dragons
1 Werewolf
The Blue Wizard Alatar

I just assume the last named went bad. Don't ask why.

Strongbow 12-19-2008 07:04 PM

Do we PM you our choice?

Go ahead and do so now, but if someone sees a reason for everyone to proclaim on this thread what they've chosen, please do that.

So far I have received 9 choices.

(I'll update that regularly.)

If the choices will be known by everyone from Night1 narration I see no reason to hide the choices - and it would be easier to see which "roles" have been taken already. But if there is a reason storytellingwise or other to conceal the choices then we should of course hold our mouths...

Nerwen 12-20-2008 06:22 PM

Sorry, Gollum, I'm going to have to pull out of this one.

Tinkertytonk! See you in later games.

Gollum the Great 12-21-2008 06:49 PM

Hmm. We may have to go with only 12 players. That ought to be ok, but I will have to cut back on one of the trolls or Alatar. The game begins in less than twenty-four hours, so those of you who have not sent me your choice, please do so soon or I will assign you one when the game begins. Roles will be PMed within a few hours.

Any last minute votes for DL? It is presently 5 or 6 PM EST, and looks like it will be 6, since 3 players have favored it and only myself and Agan want 5.

satansaloser2005 12-21-2008 11:00 PM

Well, if you need someone....I suppose I could be persuaded to join. :rolleyes:


Either deadline I'll be away for, but I'll do my best if you want me.


If not, no hard feelings. I'm rather busy, but you look a few people short and I'm always good lynch fodder.

Gollum the Great 12-21-2008 11:17 PM

Thanks, Sally.

For those of you who have not chosen a 'role', these are what remain:

Alatar
2 Trolls
1 Fire-Drake

We're to PM choices to you, right?

*does so*

Gollum the Great 12-22-2008 04:34 PM

All votes are final. No retractions.

DL is 6 PM EST

Roles:

2 Werewolves
1 Werebear
1 Seer
1 Hunter
x innos

Wolves, PM only at night.

Game thread up soon...

Aganzir 12-23-2008 11:09 AM

So what are we going to do with Christmas?

At least we in Finland (Nog & I) will probably be rather busy tomorrow but as it's Night then, it shouldn't be that bad.
So would we have a prolonged night (ie tomorrow and the day after tomorrow), or a normal night and a prolonged day after that? Or something else?
And should we tell our preferences here or PM them to you?

Strongbow 12-23-2008 11:19 AM

I can't see why Night preferences should be PM'd.

I'm totally fine with having a prolonged Night, because that just means the Wolves have longer to talk and the Bear has longer to pick who s/he is going to rip to shreds.

Gollum the Great 12-23-2008 04:21 PM

Don't send me anything regarding these long night phases unless you have to. I'm getting to many PMs as it is.

Aganzir 12-23-2008 04:25 PM

Bowie neither could I but I wanted to play it safe.

I'd prefer a normal night and a prolonged day that lasts 48 hours. I'd be fine with a normal day as well though.

Shastanis Althreduin 12-23-2008 10:25 PM

Sorry Gollum. Our internet went out unexpectedly, and still is. :( My time may be limited. We'll have to see.

Eönwë 12-24-2008 11:03 AM

So Gollum is it a long Day or Night then?

I'd prefer a long night because I definately won't be able to post tomorrow.

Boromir88 12-24-2008 12:47 PM

Long day? Long night? either or, doesn't matter to me. :D

Gollum the Great 12-24-2008 03:03 PM

I think we'll stick with a long night. No objections, I hope?

satansaloser2005 12-26-2008 11:57 PM

In regards to Ilya's narration
 
Yes, I know, I'm thick. Sorry.

So was Ilya bad or good? (It would probably help the dummies like me if you put the person's role next to their name when they die, by the way.) Then again, I'm sure when I read the narration with the help of a proper nap it'll make more sense. Sorry again, I'm just a bit confused today.

I just wanted to know so I didn't interpret the game thread wrong when I read through it tomorrow.

*hushes*

Brinniel 12-27-2008 12:51 AM

Just a quick note
 
FYI, Ilya is a female...even if her screen name may indicate otherwise.

And yes, I know I'm dead...so I'm gone now.

Nogrod 12-27-2008 11:38 AM

Is the next Day going to start in five hours or is there an extended Night-shift also on this Night?

Boromir88 12-27-2008 08:37 PM

I'm glad I was eaten on day 1, I made a switch to windows vista and it's been a severe pain. I've been internet-less for 2-days, and was going to come in to apologize for me entire day's absense. But, I see I didn't have to. :p

Good luck to all.

Gwathagor 12-29-2008 12:52 AM

Hey, my family and I are going to the ocean for a couple days. I won't be around until Wednesday or so.

Gollum the Great 12-29-2008 02:15 AM

I think the posting rate is going be about 10 posts/day now with Gwath gone.

Sorry I didn't get your suicide in, Bowie, but I hope you liked your end none the less.

satansaloser2005 12-29-2008 11:02 AM

Hey, I probably won't be around for the first few hours of the Day. Just depends on how things go at work, but I figured I'd let you all know.


There best be lots of posts when I get back though~!

~~Sally~~

Well, it was only had I voted myself, but I did like the (my) end. Very fitting.

satansaloser2005 12-29-2008 05:17 PM

Not that you care, but....
 
I'm actually not working tonight because there was nothing for me to do, so I will in fact be around whenever the Day starts. (Assuming of course that I'm alive, but I'm an optimist.)

Shastanis Althreduin 12-31-2008 01:06 AM

Hey, Gollum. I think you're going to have to go ahead and modkill me; I don't really feel comfortable coming in at such a late date, and probably the best thing I can do right now is take myself out of consideration so the innocents don't concentrate on me. I'm really sorry, you guys, and I hope to be able to participate in the next game.

:(

*hugs you*

Sorry you had so much trouble with your connection, sweetie. :(

Isabellkya 01-05-2009 03:24 PM

I apologize everyone for my absence. With the Arctic storm that hit our area, we lost power. Then had to continue to stay away because of possible flooding. We were only just now about to return. I'm sorry.
