On second thought, "chef" is not English enough a word. I shall be a cook.

Any idea when roles will be sent out?

EDIT: Oops. Just noticed Nilp wasn't included in the list. He signed up right before I did.
Oh is that what he was saying? Sorry, I suppose I need one of you "dagas" to translate for me.

And Mormegil, I'd imagine that roles will be sent out sometime on Sunday.

And Boro, you're in.

I'll be a silversmith.

I'm good with options 1 & 2.

Count my vote toward no double lynchings.

I think that about covers it.

What a crew!

I guess those parentheses can come off now, although there are a few evenings when I'll have limited access (if any) to a computer.

Options one and two are fine with me. The False Seer is both fascinating and terrifiying due to the confusion the role could cause the village. But confusion should be a part of Werewolf, after all. Ranger and Hunter communication should hopefully balance it out. As for option three, 6 gifteds seem a little too many since there would be a 45% non-ordinary population (counting the wolves).

What fun.

Alright, due to general consensus it looks like the second option is going to be the one we play with. So role wise there will be

3 Wolves
1 Seer
1 False Seer
1 Ranger
1 Hunter
x villagers (x like in algebra, not roman numerals)
> where the Ranger and Hunter are allowed to communicate during the day

Also, due to the mod being afraid of getting lynched herself, there will be NO DOUBLE LYNCHINGS. If the votes happen to be tied at the end of the day whoever reached the number of votes in question First will be lynched.

Although it was probably implied earlier I should probably formalize that Abercrombie is actually my sub-mod. Chances are I won't need her to cover a death/lynching for me, but if it looks like I'm going to miss a deadline I'll either forward her the information she needs or direct wolves/etc. to send their choices to both of us. Fairly normal sort of Sub-Mod stuff, just wanted to be sure we understood each other.

Finally, NIGHT 1 is still going to start on Sunday at around 5pm EST (it may be a little later since I'm not sure exactly when I'm getting home, however it won't be by much so if that's the case the first night will just be a little short). I'm keeping that date so that if Fordim or Kuru (or others) do decide to join they're not too late, also so that our last few people can pick occupations and whatnot. The most important thing about this is that people will therefore be getting roles Sunday. The next most important thing to note is that I WILL NOT START A NEW THREAD THEN, I'll just announce in this thread that the game has begun and all the stuff that goes along with that (no unnecessary posting, explanations of roles, etc). The new thread will begin Monday, with DAY 1 and the mod death.

(Abercrombie's list of players is currently accurate, with the exception of the parentheses around Celuien's name, so use that for now if you want to see who's in.)
