Well, pencil me in for the time being... I'll confirm whether I'm playing or not as we get closer to the starting date, because I still need to see how school gets started this next term... but I'd like another crack at WW

Ooh, Formy as Mod? Sounds excellent.And 7th Jan overlaps with my exam perfectly! Count me in. :D Do you have any vague notions concerning gameplay afore I give my character a role?

I'd like to play
 

Please allow me to participate in my first werewolf game. I am new to the downs but have watched the last few games. Referred to the site by Mormegil.

Welcome, Garin, any friend of Morm's is a friend of ours. We also delight in fresh meat!

Ooh, I can't resist, sign me up!

No. I can't do it. Sign me up please Form! I've figured a way to do it round my exams so count me in.

I really should take a brake frome this, but sign me up anyway.

It might be my last game before leaving the downs.

:eek:

I would also like to play! Sounds loathsome!(Snicker)

Okay, we are now up to...

Meneltarmacil
Cailin
Azaelia
Fareal
TGWBS
Garin
Holbytlass
Kath
Rune
Valier
Gil-Galad
Lhunardawen

Not a bad start... I'm sure we'll have enough by the time the game starts.

My dear Guy Who Be Short....

I have more than vague notions, I have a rather clear picture...

This game will be set in the early-mid Third Age, in eastern Rhovannion. Gondorians and Northmen would be the most likely ethnic groups to be found in this particular little village.

It is my intention to continue in the epic tradition of the Phantom and Alcarillo, now taking place in the Third Age.

I'm looking for approximately 15-18 players, by the way.

In that case, I'll be the creepy guy on the outskirts of town.

Thanks for letting me in. I'll be in the horse rental business.

Sign me up....

I shall be the Hat-maker. Every weekend, I go to sell my wares in the closest town, though in this time of crisis I shall remain in the village throughout...
I also keep many sheep, whence come the hats.

Time allowing, I think I shall be a worm hunter. I will hunt the most fierece worms and then sell them to fishermen for bait =D 'tis a dangerous job, worm hunter is.

I shall be a Shrubber, Gil-Galad the Shrubber, Shrubbery is my trade, Shruberry is the name of the game.

If there's room I'll join the party. Just assign me somewhere useful and I'll go from there.

I shall be the town BrewMaster,A lady who's tongue is like a whip,but servers the best damn liquor in town!

Sign me up for this game if there's room still. I shall be a moneylender. I once worked in the great cities of Gondor long ago, but I was chased to Rhovanion by an angry mob, accusing me of having ridiculously high interest rates.

*ehem*

P.S. So this is how you'll celebrate your first deathday, Formendacil? ;)

I haven't forgotten you, Lhuna dear...

Your name shall appear on the list in due time.

Rather appropriate, in light of the occasion, don't you think?

Don't take this as an insult, but from your question here, I feel the need to ask, before putting you down on the list, if you are familiar with how Werewolf is played?

As I said, no offense intended, but your phrasing here makes me think you are expecting a RPG of sorts.

Excellent, Lord Formendacil.


You mean creating death posts for fellow BDers? If you're that cruel, or you think the Downs has been cruel to you, yes. :D

Well, I might as well sign up. Even if I'm too busy, sleep can wait a couple weeks... ;)

Since we're in some pretty wide open spaces, I'll be a rancher. Not sure what I'll ranch, though. A few cows, some horses, maybe a rabbit or hundred. Now all I have to decide is if I'll play conservatively or try to hatch some new, far-fetched, likely-not-to-work-and-more-likely-to-get-me-lynched scheme.

Looking forward to the game, Formy.

Side note: I just noticed that my location, which has been there for about a week now, fits quite nicely with the new game. What are the odds. :D

I'd like to join please - just signing up to see whether this is possible before I create a character. :)

Sounds good, I'm in. If I'm accepted I will create my character as they are divided amongst us.

Form, theres always Werewolf Junior if you don't think certain members are ready for the real thing...



EDIT: sorry if i caused any offense, i just wnated to say that the Werewolf Junior is for new members that want to play the Werewolf game, i know when i first played werewolf, there was no junior, and i had a hard time, i got killed off the first night! i posted this cause i don't want other members feeling like i felt and so they get the best of their werewolf experiance, though at least the neg rep at an explanation, but nobody signed it...

Nilpaurion Felagund signs up.

Hmm...Eastern Rhovanion...sounds like the perfect place for a dwarven alcohol, tobacco, and firearms...errr, I mean weapons, merchant.

Assuming we do start on the 7th, you can count me in.

Where are the veterans?
 

I'm hoping to hear from saucepan man and mormegil among others. :mad:

How very courteous, sir. As for professions... I think I shall be a noble kleptomaniac this time.

There indeed seem to be many newbies this game - of which you are one, too. :p

Well, newbies can be fun. They are far less predictable and often surprise you in the end. However, I'm a bit worried that some do not really understand what they are signing up for. It sounds like Naria and Eluchíl are expecting something more RPG-like. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but please before you join, read some of the earlier Tol in Gaurhoth games and browse through this thread a little. :)

I will be a Hobbit peace activist.

I would like to state that I have thoroughly read the rules for this game. It is not an RPG but more like a murder mystery of sorts, I would definitely still like to play even though I am new.
So if I am on the list I would like to be the towns proprietor for the local house of healing, with a specialty in exotic pipe weeds.

Okay, the list stands at:

Meneltarmacil - Creepy Guy on the Edge of Town
Cailin - Noble Kleptomaniac
Azaelia
Farael - Worm Hunter
TGWBS - Hat Maker
Garin - Horse Loaner
Kath
Rune
Valier - Brewmaster
Gil-Galad - Shrubber
Alcarillo - Moneylender
Lhunardawen - Potion-Pizza Person
Gurthang - Rancher
Amanaduial
Naria - Store Proprietor
Nilpaurion Felagund - Suspicious Carnivore
Kuruharan - Dwarven Alcohol and Weapons Merchant
Eluchil - Mild-Mannered Innkeeper
Malkatoj

That's 18 players, unless I count wrong, which I don't, so I think we're about full up- with room for maybe one more player, unless someone backs out.

As for Rune: Be a peace activist if you like, but I don't think that there were any Hobbits in Gondorian 3rd Age Rhovannion...

Kuru and Naria: You can be businessmen (or businessdwarves), if you like, but tobacco/pipeweed hasn't been discovered as useful yet...

That seems to be all the important info for now... If everybody could hand in job descriptions (or have them assigned- be warned, I will make them whatsoever I like) over the next couple days, that would be awesome. Meanwhile, expect a Saturday, Sunday, or maybe even Monday start- depending on what happens to me this Sunday.

Each Day, as usual, will be 24 hours in duration (give or take), as will each Night. We will begin with a Night Cycle. Day/Night transitions will probably be made at 3:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time, which is 5:00 p.m EST, and should be 10:00 pm in Greenwich.

Hey Mr. Joosten... my sn is Farael, not Fareal!!!!

Looking forward to my second try at WW

I wonder if there was pizza in those days... ;) If there was, I think I shall be a chef specializing in potion (of whatever kind)-containing pizzas. What say you, dear mod?

10+8=18. 18-12=6. So that's 6 AM for me...expect early votes.

Typos happen to the best of people. 'Tis best not to point them out in posts unless if becomes habit.

Potion Pizza Person...

Dunno if they had pizza during the 3rd Age, but there's nothing saying they couldn't slap some sauce made of anachronistic tomatoes onto bread dough, sprinkled it with cheese and called it a pizza.

Updating the List.

Love the alliteration. As you say, Milord.


I think this could present to be a hot topic in the Books.

Sorry, I was just being coy. I know the rules. ;)

hmmm...I feel an Uh-oh coming on... Because I'm a student, I am at school until about 3 PM, and then, two or 3 days a week, perhaps more, I am at work until 6:00. That all adds up to me missing a lot of crucial time, because of the transition time being at 5:00.

I'm sort of wondering if I should sit this one out too, as I'm up in the air about whether or not my time schedule would put me under unnecessary suspicion (usually happens anyway)...or if it would lead to me being too silent.

Well, I'll be able to post early and late in the Day in that case, though you won't see much of me during the middle, as I'm also on EST, leave for school at about 6:40 AM, and get back around 2:30 PM. So if I'm being quiet during that time, please don't consider that a reason to lynch me.
