Now now, Valier, Sleepy has really been busy these past few days, and didn't have time to write a better death. It's not fair to say something like that. Be kind. And offensive writing is causing all sorts of trouble elsewhere. It's better if it's avoided.

I'm not being offensive! I just took it as because Sleepy was having problems with other players hence the bad taste, that he was mad so just put a quick death up.

I felt this was unfair to me! I did not expect a short death post from him because he was having a "bad day" that is all.

Sorry, dear, I didn't mean that you were being offensive, I meant that it was understandable for Sleepy to want to avoid writing something offensive. Things just happen sometimes, and sometimes a person's writing suffers from their mood.

Well Valier - when I died in the original WW I just got "Mithalwen is Dead" or words to that effect .... but it was the Barrow Wight having a busy day so ....

Aye, I remember that. "The wolves killed Mithalwen." Full stop. So be thankful, young Valier!

Ah, the good old days of yore...

Mithalwen, if you like, I can go back and relive the moment of your death, narrating it for your enjoyment.

Ooooooooooooooooooh and how would you know?...despite my fluctuating suspicions t'was that rascally dwarf Kuruharan who was the wuluf......

The memory of Kuruharan was useful though in my last game - I remembered that it didn't matter if a few people suspected you a bit as long as you weren't sufficiently high up enough of their lists to actually get lynched In fact you may be better off being suspected a bit than not at all ... I may be imagining it but at a certain point in the game it seems possible to rustle up a lynch mob against someone on the rather illogical grounds that they have not been suspected by anyone up to that point..... which suddenly seems very suspicious!!!
