Well no rule says you can't be married to Agan Sackville-Baggins... or maybe be her cousin or brother or whatever.

If you come up with this kind of affiliations together please let me know. They could be used in the narrations as well as to provide you some nice Day1 stuff.

As I said on the other thread I am certainly up for another game. Although....the week after next is finals week and after the semester is over I am without reliable internet for about two to three weeks. So maybe put me up with a question mark for now? I'll certainly be watching the game though even if I'm not in it. Sounds intriguing

Ah! A simple game....

Count me in, please. I think I will go as Mac Sandyman.

I also find the idea of a village without gifteds interesting, for the exact reason you stated: The ordos can't just wait and have the gifteds win the game for them. It's more challenging to the innocents in a very intriguing, yet simple, way.

What do you others say? I myself liked that kind of game but this depends on your opinion. I'm ready to go either way.

There are NO LOVERS in this game - even if you decided to go on having a relationship with one another. That will be purely narrational / for bantering purposes...

I'll take Might of Greenholm, after my ancestor Fastred, the only Hobbit with a truly cool name.

I agree with Mac. It may be interesting and more discussion-supporting, and also one feels safer, knowing that he is not lynching a Seer Though I'd understand if those who are new around here wanted to have the roles that were in the last game.

Thanks, Nog! Now I feel relieved.

I'm interested, but my involvement in a WW game would depend heavily on when it's going to start. For now put me down as a maybe. Hopefully I will be able to.

Yes, I didn't think of that. After all, we are all hobbits... yes, I could go with Sackville-Baggins, if Agan does not have any problem with that.

But maybe the cousin or brother would be better. After the experience in the last game, the husband does not sound as a very good idea... (and even if not, it could become total madness. At least, Nog, you would really need to state that there are NO LOVERS in the game).

But it's still open. If it were to be fun (and only fun. Do we have double-lynches, Nog?), I could be persuaded to take it. What do you say, Aganzir?
