Tol-in-Gaurhoth (Isle of Werewolves)

I'm not going to trust myself to post or think lucidly tonight. Please don't take it amiss that I'm not going to be around much Day One.

Okay, I hope that most of you can now see the evils of too much pre-game discussion. And I don't mean discussion about rules or timeframes or stuff like that. For this particular game, I noticed a great amount of pre-game discussion concerning strategy. I would have commented at the time, but did not want to jump into the 'debate' and hoped that it would not affect the game. That hope has failed.

I've seen numerous times already where people have referred to the discussion that occured within this thread before the game. Now, LMP has graciously allowed us to refer to previous games (in a round about way). He has, however, not stated we could talk about anything that has occured in this thread. (It is true that he has not said we could not, but I think that that was implied. )

Henceforth, I would love to see no more referals to this thread, the discussion herein, or any personal opinions spawned by said discussion. I know it is impossible to keep yourself from having personal opinions, but I think that we are all capable of keeping those seperate from the game.

Lastly, I think it is somewhat relevant (in order to understand our newest WW playmate) to read this if you have not.

Thank you and happy posting.

I have given all players a means to refer to anything outside the game. Please use it.

Refrain from personal insults. As in, "You're quite obviously stupid if you didn't catch my meaning." None of that or its like.

Gameplay insults are another matter, and can always be understood as fun and game-intended. You know the type. "You insufferable mushroom picker!" "Thou churl." "You canker of society!" Get it?

*sigh* Gurth, if we're allowed to refer to other WW games in character "my ww lorebooks etc" I don't see why we can't refer to things in this thread as I attempted to -- presenting it as an in character comment about things that happened in the village before the death of Elempi.

Now, if Paul doesn't want us to do this, I'll try not to, but you only suppose that he doesn't allow it. And since I can suppose that he does, it's very pointless for you to tell us what to do and not do based on what the mod may or may not think.

Now, I hope to spend far more time in the game thread than this one, so, until our Mod God speaks, I'm not going to bother debating the issue any further.

Edit: X-posted with da man himself....

And a reminder from the friendly neighbourhood busybody (and his popcorn): keep discussions/arguments about rules off this thread until Post-Game. There have been too many games disrupted/ruined by problems like this. If there is an issue, PM the Moderator. If the Moderator has a problem, he can correct the game.

It's possible I won't be able to post on WW for a few hours, until near the end of the day. I'll try to escape early, but I can't guarantee anything.

Amen.

Gurthang is forgiven for his well intended misfire, which, though it differs slightly from my wishes, available for your perusal above, is in the right spirit. Enough said. Back to the game!

I'm truly sorry for missing Day 1 but I wasn't feeling too well and my parents decided I ought to sleep in. I'm sorry!

An announcement, concerning the oncoming games.

Kath would like to have her TiG game to begin asap after lmp's, as her closing exams will haunt her after that. Therefore we will push the beginning of our TiGJ game a bit forwards.

So the next game should be Kath's TIG-game, and our game on TiGJ will start only when Kath's game is drawing near its end. That way we can have players to both games - and the timetable is much better for me and Lommy too: as our summer holidays start in the beginning of June. Then we will have all the time to come up with stories, deaths etc., and will be able to make the deadline around 10PM GMT, which seems to fit both Europeans and Americans.
