I've changed my mind. Insane as I might be for doing this, I want in. I shall play... the villiage insomniac, as I will be posting mainly late at night due to university requirements like actually going to class and doing homework. (I'm on GMT -5, if that matters). I might miss a day/night/whatever or two, depending on how they fall, but I'll give advance once we start. And I'm female, as always.

My posts will either be late at night or early in the morning since I'm GMT + 3. But I'll have a post a day no matter.

Btw, thanks for the invite, Glirdan!
No problem Gurthang.

I'm also wondering when the game is starting? Or is that dependant on when we have enough players.
Quote:
Glirdan, any reason why you're holding out for 15 players? 12 players should be enough for a good game with the roles you have.
I'll answer both at once because they have something to do with each other. In answer to Gurthang's question, it's depending on having enough people. I'm just waiting to get an answer from Lhuna and Folwren to see if they want to play. Saucy, it's because it's funner when there's more people and the game lasts longer, soooo.... Not to mention if we have 15 players, the amount of Cursed and Gifted compared to that of Ordinary Villagers is pretty even.

Quote:
What about Sleepy Slope? Or Dozytown? Or Snoopyville? Or Wulfenberg? Or Dozeoff? Or Lilleville? Or The Bathtub Village? Or Crowdeep? (Yeah, I know I have too much imagination just now...)
Thanks for those offers, but we have a name thanks to Perky!! The name is Fwedawick. How's that for original?

Since I have never (surprisingly!) played a WW game, I would like to ask a question: isn't that so that when you (Glirdy) post us roles, then you wait that you get a confirmation from everybody, that they've received their roles and announce the starting day? So we won't be starting so that someone doesn't know/notice we start? (I know, it was a stupid question, but I had to know...)
I'll be figuring out the roles as soon as I get an answer form Lhuna and Folwren. I'll send out your roles through a PM letting you know if you're going to be and Ordinary Villager, a Wolf, the Seer, The Ranger, The Hunter or the Cobbler.

If we can, we'll start the night that I send out the roles which will hopefully be by Monday at the latest. Hope that answered all you're questions.

I know I've double posted a lot, but I'd rather not expand my previous post thanks. And if you need to double post, please feel free to do so.

So far, the players are:

Hiriel- Deaf librarian
Rune Son of Bjarne- Bailif
WaynetheGoblin- Babysitter
Eonwe- Shady, black market guy who has deals with Dwarves
Thinlomien- Healer
The Only Real Estel- Peach Cobbler maker
Malkatoj- Drunk Fencer
Kitanna- Village Hermit
Sleepy Ranger- Innkeeper
Bergil
Gurthang
Feanor of the Peredhil- Village Incomniac

I might have Folwren in it to. If I don't get a definte answer by tomorrow from her and Lhuna by the first time I come on, I'll figure out the roles tomorrow, send them out and possibly start the game tomorrow night at around 10:30pm Eastern Time. If you don't have your role in by then, I'll pick one for you.

Alright, here I am! Blamed computer doesn't move very fast and it's awful hard work lugging it behind me, but I'm here.

I'll play a male () and my name's Jack in this game. Won't answer to anything else. And I'm the Blacksmith/Farrier. If I'm not at my smithy, I'm with my trusty horse, Blakeney - a tall, slender, very handsome bay (brown with black highlights and with black mane and tail). Broke him myself, I did.

Looking forward to it, everyone.

Cool. I think we'll be starting by tomorrow night. How's that for everyone?

For those who don't know who this game works, I'll explain how you win. I'll also repost some of this stuff once the game gets started.

If you're a villager, you win once the Wolves have all been found and lynched.
If you're a wolf, you'll win once the number of villagers is equal to the amount of wolves left. Example, if all three wolves are alive still at the end and there are three villagers, the Wolves will win and can move out into the open.

Other rules we need to discuss, do we want to allow double lynches? I will not have mass lynchings and also nonretractable votes (can't take back your vote once you've voted.) As for the doulbe lynchings, for those newbies out there, a double lynch is when you have the same amount of votes for two people. Do we want to allow this? If there are any more questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Another thing, try to incorporate your occupation into the actual game. For those of you who have played an RPG and would like to play the game as an RPG like we did on the first day for WW X, feel free to do so.

BTW, I still need a role from Bergil and Gurthang. If I don't have your roles by tomorrow, I'll make up one for you myself, and it might be something stupid.
