Ai, Nilp, stealing my brilliant ideas! I should... I should...

Oh, this is só mean. I cannot possibly sign up unless you postpone the start till Tuesday at the earliest. But then, I do really not want to miss this game. *sulks*

Postpone the start Nilp! We can't let Cailinimedes the Great Inventor miss out.

The Eye That can be arranged.

For you, Cailín, it will be moved. Tuesday it is.

Okay, speaking of times . . . there shall be two choices. I wish to know which one's more convenient for the majority.

1. Game cycles at 5:30am, GMT. No fluctuations.

2. Game cycles at 8:00am, GMT, although on Saturdays it will be 2-3 hours earlier.

So, I need two opinions now:

~ The other roles (Hunter, Ranger, Cobbler, etc.)

~ The DAY/NIGHT cycle time.

Mwahaha! It's your turn to suffer from timezones! *evil smilie*

Well, to some extent.

I'll go with option 2, 8:00 AM GMT.

Hunter, Ranger the same. I'm not very sure about the Cobbler or a Cursed. Will the Seeriffs be enough to counteract the four wolves? Or is the scale heavier on one side?

I prefer the first choice for the time cycle, but both are better-than-average for me.

Now, as to other roles--

I'd like to see a Hunter and Ranger who can pm each other as in the last game.

well, for us in North America it might be better starting at 5 30 GMT as it'd be around midnight for most of us... but then, it's a little unfair on our Brittish counterparts (Wait, will this hamper Saucepan Wolf? hmmmm ) Anyway, I cast my vote for 8 GMT. North Americans may have to vote a few hours early but it would give Brittish (And most European I guess) people a chance to vote before the deadline.

I must admit to be ignorant of Timezones in Europe though, so those of you who actually live there should speak up now or hold your peace for ever.... or 'till the end of the current WW game, whichever happens first

Yay! Thanks Nilp.

As for roles, just a plain Hunter and Ranger would do, I suppose. The cursed or cobbler doesn't seem like a clever idea: might be overdoing all the intrigues. Also, to add another team and make the Hunter and Ranger Shiriffs might be overdoing it.

I vote 8:00 GMT, obviously.

Also, Nilp, did you decide on boy/girl lovers or just random, which would allow for boy/boy and girl/girl lovers?

The Eye The Prophet uttereth:

You will be punished, Lhuna. Mod God's will.

The Hunter and Ranger will be ordinary ones. I can't have two blocks of talking gifted, could I? Even 4 or 5 Bad Guys would have trouble with that one. (I think.)

Cailín, it will be Male/Female.

Boy/girl only - wouldn't that make things too easy to figure out?

I agree Lalaith, to a certain degree. Of course I understand that a romantic spirit like Nilp's (seconding Lhuna's barf ) would find the male/female version more appealing, but we should ensure the game is at least relatively balanced then.
