I've already written you in, hopefully it's to your liking. I think you'll enjoy it. ;)

Edit: I should say I've written you more as a Luna Lovegood...is that ok?

That's even better than Ron Weasley, thanks! :)

Boromir88 08-10-2009 09:01 PM

I'm just going to chug along with the tryouts, because it made me super-happy writing Part I, and this will be the final piece of the story before the Night 1 narration tomorrow at 11pm.

Thanks to everyone for their kind comments. I'm glad you're enjoying this, it makes it worthwhile, and I know we're all antzy to get going, but it won't be much longer now.

Brinniel 08-10-2009 09:03 PM

Sorry for taking so long, but it took me way too long to come up with a superpower. :rolleyes:

I am Butterfingers (also known as The Klutz): I destroy everything I touch. It's quite awesome, really. :Merisu:

Thanks Brinn...I went ahead and made up one so I could keep going with the narrations, but I'll go ahead now and change what I wrote for you in the narration to fit your power. :D

I'm quite enjoying the narration. Do Wild-eye's super powers aid him in catching a speedy bird? :p

Hehe, a partial thanks is due to wilwa. Who came up with her name and picked out an avatar for the special occassion.

She offered a name for my coyote avatar...I won't tell you what it was...sweet attempt but really cheesy. Even too cheesy for me, and so I decided on Wild-eye Coyote...:D

Wile E. Cornea......I thought it was good....haha. :p

Boromir88 08-11-2009 08:02 AM

All the roles have been chosen and we'll send 'em out earlier than what I said. I'm a bit under the weather this morning, they'll be out sometime in the afternoon.

The villains will receive a PM from wilwa, the rest will come from me.

Remember, if you're not already, you should be going into invisible mode soon.

Boromir88 08-11-2009 12:06 PM

All the roles should have been sent out. If you haven't received one PM me.

I'll get the final piece of the narration up a little later, and Night 1 will officially begin at 11 pm EST.

Boromir88 08-12-2009 04:53 PM

I won't be here for the DL, and I haven't heard from wilwa if she will, so I'm going to put up the Day 1 narration a few hours early.

Villains you may continue to converse until 11pm. No one post on the game thread until then. Thanks.

Mirandir 08-12-2009 09:51 PM

So. I was really hoping people would be around at the start of the Day to talk with since I'll be at work all day tomorrow and might/probably won't be around for deadline. I'll try to catch up before I leave in the morning, but no promises on that one. Please don't lynch me for having to be a big girl and contribute to society! :p

Mirandir 08-13-2009 08:47 AM

So I'm all caught up (for now at least) but have to leave for work before I can actually post anything of substance (or otherwise). Hopefully I'll be back for deadline, but like I said last night, no promises.

You can always cast a ++No Vote :p

Ahh, but seeing as you did make me aware of this...if you do miss it shall not count against thee.

Simple as that folks. :D

Feanor of the Peredhil 08-13-2009 12:55 PM

Psh. I'm not even playing any more and all y'all are still gonna try to kill me on Day One? Well then. ;)

My thanks for the concern expressed by several of you. Everything's okay, but by the time I realized I totally could have just kept playing, I already knew your roles. :eek:

Boromir88 08-13-2009 12:59 PM

ha, see and I was going to ask if you wanted to be back in, but then remembered I told you the roles...I blab far too quickly for my own good.

wilwarin538 08-13-2009 01:27 PM

Aww, that's inconvenient...

But now you are all knowing, so that's always fun :D

Boromir88 08-13-2009 09:54 PM

Guess I should say it here too.

Narration is up it is now Night 2...erm well has been for 55 minutes

Thinlómien 08-14-2009 12:44 PM

I'm so sorry!
 
Aieek, I'm here, sorry for missing Day1, I had absolutely no idea the game had started and I haven't been online for days! (And besides, I'm under Kath's influence, so no wonder I pick up some habits from her. :p) I'll be around on Day2 though, so see you all then! (Plenty time to read the 13 pages of the game thread and 5 pages of admin thread. :rolleyes: :D)

Boromir88 08-14-2009 01:03 PM

We're just glad to have you Lommers :D I hope you like the power I assigned to you...well it's really not so much a power, but I figured it would fit you nice enough. If you'd like to change it let me know. ;)

Edit: ahh and those that need to send in their picks. I'd prefer it 2 hours before the DL, but no later than 1 hr before...so I can try and throw together a decent narration. Merci beaucoup :)

Thinlómien 08-14-2009 01:11 PM

Don't worry Boro, I love it. :D

alonariel 08-14-2009 07:05 PM

Hi all, just stopping in quickly to say that I won't be around for the beginning of Day 2 for a couple hours until about 10pm pst. I shall see you all then! Thanks!

Hakon 08-14-2009 09:06 PM

I think I know who the bear is after they picked me to die. Oh well. This really sucks. My second game and I die on night two.

People I am a person. I will refrain from using names but so far it is only two of you.

Macalaure 08-14-2009 09:45 PM

Come on, you survived til the end in your first game. Somebody has to die during Night 2. Everybody who has played some games eventually ends up in the situation, and I can't think of one occasion where it was personal.

Also, dead heroes tell no tales. :rolleyes:

Boromir88 08-14-2009 09:51 PM

Yes, the dead stay silent....except Wild-eye...Wild-eye has permission to continue to post beyond death. :p

Don't get too flustered by the early exit. I mean well Pitch kind of died first. I was lynched on Day 1 three straight times at one point...sure it ticked me off, but there's always another game.

Hakon 08-14-2009 09:58 PM

I know that there will be more games and that the dead stay silent. Although I came up with a good theory based on some posts last night but I can't share it now. After the game I might.

Shastanis Althreduin 08-15-2009 09:51 AM

I'm moving into my college apartment today and probably won't be on much, just so ya know. :)

Brinniel 08-15-2009 09:12 PM

Again, sorry for my absence toDay. As said on the other thread, I'm trying to crunch in doing as many things as possible for my last days in NYC since I'll really miss this place. I really do hate rushing in at the last minute since I then don't even have time to read the thread properly and then I end up cramming too much information in my brain at once...

Sadly, my participation toMorrow won't be great either, should I still be alive, since I'm flying home on Monday. I'll be around for the early hours (in between the packing), but will have to vote by mid-morning (EST). I've heard recently of people having free wi-fi while flying, and it'd be really cool if I did, but I don't know how likely that is. If by some good luck I do, then I'll be able to participate much more than expected.

satansaloser2005 08-15-2009 09:14 PM

Sorry, sir Mod. Automatically quoted and forgot to slide it over to this thread. So....

Hehe, 'tis fine sally, 'tis fine.

And as a by the way, I won't have Dun's narration finished today. It's wierd I had 3 cups of coffee about 2 hours ago, and I'm already yawning about ready to pass out...guess I don't make it as strong as starbucks. Curses, another bad thing about parents living in cow country. :rolleyes:

Inziladun 08-15-2009 10:34 PM

I leave the house for a few hours to work a side job and this is what I return to. :rolleyes:

Mirandir 08-16-2009 11:21 AM

I'm soooooo sorry I wasn't around yesterday! I had every intention of getting back after work and then some complications of a personal issues arose and I didn't end up getting home until 5am.

satansaloser2005 08-16-2009 12:14 PM

(Assuming I'm alive) I might not be here at Dawn. Had trouble sleeping last night and to be honest I feel a bit crappy. I'll try to be around but I'm not making any promises.

Boromir88 08-16-2009 07:16 PM

Inziladun, your narration is complete. It's not as worthy as the death Mnemo gave you, but well...let's just say your fellow heroes had a...light bulb moment. :rolleyes::p

It's most illuminating. :D

Thank you, but the true compliments should go to Agan, who provided me with the idea. :D

alonariel 08-16-2009 11:12 PM

I wanted to post just in case I don't get up early enough tomorrow.

School starts for me and I've got class from 8am-12:20pm pst and then a night class from 7pm-9:50pm pst so I'm going to be gone for the last few hours before the DL, but I should be on between classes. Just wanted to give a heads up :)

alonariel 08-17-2009 05:21 PM

I'm going to be leaving rather soon (have some last minute school shopping to do) for my night class and won't be back until past DL.

Cool. :cool: So you know for the future, usually it is not required to let me know every moment you can or can't be on. A general "I'm going to be working most of the day, (or out...etc) so I can't participate much/don't know if I can vote" is all that is required.

You are free to continue keeping us informed, but I don't want you to feel it is required. :)

Boromir88 08-17-2009 10:20 PM

Narration done.
