I will be celebrating Christmas with family on the 23rd and 25th. But I'm sure I'll be able to pop in sometime before or after, so while I won't be perching by the computer all day, that's not much different than days I have to go off to work or run errands, etc, and can't sit by the computer all day.

Howdy.

Glad to see Farael playing. He goes well with roast potatoes and honey baked parsnips, I find.

I shall be a travelling tinker.

There we go, last time I was a wolf short but now if we add you into the mix we'll be set. I WILL lynch you just to make sure you are not a wolf, so beware.

All right. As far as ending/starting Days and Nights, here are the windows I am working with.

between 6 PM GMT and 10 PM GMT (1-5 PM EST)
or
between 4 AM GMT and 7 AM GMT (11 PM- 2 AM EST)

No matter what time we choose, it will be inconvenient for someone. I would like to know, however, if you have a strong preference or if all of those times work for you. If there is a strong lean in one direction I will favor it.

It appears we are up to 16 players now.

Just two spots left.

Heh heh...

Apparently, 4 AM GMT = 10 PM CST, which is good for me, personally. I'll be on the computer more often at that time than in the middle of the afternoon.

Rikae · 12-18-2007, 06:13 PM

Shasta - he said 4 AM EST, though, which is 3 AM your time, I believe!

That time won't be good for me and, I daresay, not for a lot of other people as well...

As for having an apprentice - sure, I could use the help since I have to compete with that upstart, Shasta! Although the village seems to be getting a little herbalist-heavy...

the phantom · 12-18-2007, 06:50 PM

I fixed the times.

I'll second this.

As for the deadline, I'd prefer 6-10 pm GMT.

Occupation? Hmm... Surely this village needs a hangman. Or a hangwoman, to be more accurate.

Nerwen · 12-19-2007, 06:53 AM

I'd prefer between 4 AM GMT and 7 AM GMT– but I suspect this is a bad time for most people.

Upstart?! Me?! I'm no upstart! I happen to be extremely good at what I do (although perhaps your keep-awake tea is a hair better than mine).

Did I smell a whiff of paranoia?

What fun!

I'd like to be a young woman, perhaps an apprentice herbalist/healer/midwife/thing.

Rikae, do you want an apprentice? If not, that's fine, too...I can easily think up something else.

Edit: I wouldn't mind a longer day structure. I know my life gets hectic around the holidays, and I'm sure others will have their hands full with family, food, cleaning, and the like as well.

As to the time thing, I think I'd prefer the later start, as it means a later deadline for votes. I'm more likely to be free around 11 PM than I am to be around 1-5 PM, just in general...though I'm likely to be asleep from midnight on. :P
