So there. All one-handed.

If there are questions / discussions / random accusations, they may now be put into words.

I did say I would join if I'm out of Nogrod's game by the time yours starts. But, if Nogrod is co-modding yours, then I assume the game will be over before yours starts. So sign me up as a definite maybe.

May I ask if this will be Werewolves at Sea, Werewolves on a Plane, or Werewolves in Space? I'm assuming it's the first one, but you did say it wouldn't be canon...

When exactly is this scheduled to take off? I didn't see a date. Is it when there are sufficient villagers? If you are going to Brazil I may be of assistance but only if there is a bit of a time break.

*tear*

Going back to basics with only the three Wolves and a Seer would be interesting, but all three of those options sound great to me. Though I saw 'four wolves' and my only thought had something to do with mangled remains...

Having had another recent lapse of sanity, I would be interested in playing, but am leaving town on June 23rd for three days. Do the games usually last that long?

Cailín, I was actually wanting you to say yea or nea as to me playing. But, if it's up to me, then of course I'm in.

Timeframes are not too bad either way, but I'd prefer the 8 AM over 10 PM.

I'd like the middle option when it comes to roles.

And lastly, my occupation: I'll be the Plank Operator*. Meaning I'm the guy that gets to push people off.

*I'm assuming that we'll be on a ship. If not, I'll have to change.

I am also saddened by this. After all, don't ya think that having a wolf and biped in love is already jumping off the deep end?

Just one question concerning the lovers- are they chosen at random like the other roles? Because... well.. that could lead to some interesting situations....

If you mean same-sex lovers, I do believe that Cailin said that would be a possibility back in the Scenarios thread when she first posted about lovers. What are you thinking now, Cailin?

edit: Here's an idea, randomly pick a wolf to be the wolfish lover and let them pick a "passenger" to be their lover.

Well, that had crossed my mind, but I was more thinking of the interesting personalities that could get paired up. Me and you for instance.

Or... Fea and phantom!

Or... any two from the Duos of Doom thread! *faints from fright*
