2. Shelob - student of the Ancient and Long-Dead Gadian Language; a llama famer on the side
3. Holbytlass - seller of "zoo-doo" fertilizer
4. the guy who be short
5. Meneltarmacil
6. WaynetheGoblin - dentist
7. wilwarin538 - tailor
8. Alcarillo - mayor (not for voting/tiebreaking purposes, just the village mayor)
9. Durelin - Mistress of 1337
10. Saucepan Man - mushroom harvester
11. Kath - gardener
12. the phantom - apothecary
13. Azaelia of Willowbottom - flower-selling lass
14. Cailín - constant crocheter
15. arcticstorm - coppersmith
16. Nonnacedak
17. mormegil - merchant
18. Gil-Galad - lawyer, has a pet bird
19. SamwiseGamgee
20. Glirdan - cheese seller
21. Bergil - very bad carpenter

Unless someone has a problem and needs to back out of the game, this list will be final.

Responses to some questions and points:

There will be a bear. Just because it's fun. It gives the villagers another objective, and come on, we don't want to be doing the same game over and over again. That's why I like the idea of the cobbler aiding the bear as well. The village is big enough for it -- what are all of your thoughts on this concept? And as for mass lynchings... I don't really think they are the best idea, but as a last resort I think it's okay. Let's just say that your Mod will generally frown upon mass lynchings except as a very last resort ... and I've got a meeeean frown.

How about the cobbler stays, but to make it fairer for the villagers, mass lynching is allowed as a last resort?

We will continue to abide by the Irretractable Rule of Voting.

Yes, DAY will be 24 hours and NIGHT will be 24 hours. This will allow everyone to check in at whatever time is convenient. The first 24 hours shall be NIGHT 1.

Hmmm... where shall our village be set? I think it shall be a town which has fallen into disrepair. Everyone but these 21 (22 including me) have moved away in search of bigger and better things, while we have remained, trying to scrape by. It's on the border of a dark and looming forest.

Since we have all our players, I am going to start deciding roles. This will be done completely at random (seriously, I've got little scraps of paper and a fedora in which to put them). Think about what I've said about the cobbler. As soon as the cobbler's function is decided, I'll send everyone their roles. Looking forward to a great game!
