satansaloser2005 · 04-28-2008, 09:51 AM

More people yay! Erm, hurry and join folks. If the game doesn't start by the 10th, I'm going to have to withdraw I think, and that would be tragic. *is not addicted at ALL*

Kath · 04-28-2008, 10:17 AM

Woo sign ups! Oddwen it's great to see you back, Lommy I am quite willing to guilt you into playing.

Meneltarmacil · 04-28-2008, 10:32 AM

To be honest, I actually can't start the game until late May anyhow, so I doubt we'll be starting anytime soon.

I don't know, does anyone want to mod in between now and the 18th of May?

Aganzir · 04-28-2008, 10:38 AM

Maybe you should post about it in the TIG thread?

I don't know, though, about the Duelling Wizards... There would probably be no time to mod it so that your game wasn't seriously delayed, but two normal games before it might be quite a lot, given that many people may be away in the midsummer.

Sad day. Okay then, I officially submit my resignation.

Sorry, but week after next is final exams and after that I move out of my dorm room and have no internet, so playing past that point is virtually impossible. Hope you all enjoy the game though.

Meneltarmacil · 04-28-2008, 02:27 PM

If we start it soon, do you think this game would likely be finished by May 10th? I could run it until then.

What does everyone think?

Gwathagor · 04-28-2008, 02:44 PM

Does we got enough players?

Meneltarmacil · 04-28-2008, 03:26 PM

I don't think we have enough yet, but if maybe two or three more joined we probably would.

Oddwen · 04-28-2008, 05:43 PM

I know I modded you Volster, but that's it I believe...

Wow. I've only Played with four of you, and Menel...hi everyone else!

Now how is this an advantage for me...?

satansaloser2005 · 04-28-2008, 08:35 PM

I'd be fine with starting ASAP, but it's really up to you, Menel.

Aganzir · 04-29-2008, 12:23 PM

We have 10 players now, and the first game here had 12 I think. So if we get two players quickly, I think the game would be over by 10th of May. And of course you Menel could take a co-mod to finish the game in case it doesn't end early enough.

Hi Oddwen!

And hi also to Lhuna and Elf-warrior with whom I don't think I have played before.

Meneltarmacil · 04-29-2008, 02:45 PM

OK, we'll start as soon as we get 2 more players.

I'll choose one of our dead to be a co-mod if the game goes too long.

Don't forget to choose occupations!

And if needs be we can probably start even without two more players (even if would be more nice that way) as I think smaller games than 12 have been played. With ten I'd say two wolves and one gifted or something along those lines... or whatever Menel has in mind.

But the sooner the better.

Oddwen · 04-29-2008, 05:40 PM

May I request my character to be a maker of very fine Naughty Pine Furniture?

Gwathagor · 04-29-2008, 06:12 PM

What on earth...?

satansaloser2005 · 04-29-2008, 07:43 PM

Oh....noes. This is going to be interesting....

Meneltarmacil · 04-29-2008, 07:57 PM

OK, the game will start on May 1st even if we don't get enough players. I can't use 5:00 for the Day/Night cycle, so I'll use 3:00 U.S. Eastern time instead.

Oddwen · 04-29-2008, 10:54 PM

The pines are naughty, not the furniture. Just to make that clear.

It's from growing near a fresh water source.

Gwathagor · 04-30-2008, 12:01 AM

Gwathagor's occupation: Lawyer.

Lhunardawen · 04-30-2008, 12:09 AM

Haha, Oddwen, glad to be playing with you again. It's been ages.

I'll be a pine cone collector.

I'm sorry, but what's the time in GMT?

Volo · 04-30-2008, 01:48 AM

Me RB teh explorer guy in the painting carried around by a black gorilla. Yeh.

The game starting so soon will make other things pains in the neck, but what the nose, let's do it.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 04-30-2008, 01:54 AM

Well well well... I guess it's been enough time for my WW break (more than a month! And even more from playing!), and if the game is going to go fast, I may as well join. Half a week ago I felt like I would like to play once again, but then I reconsidered due to other obligations I have... but now there's so many players I would like to play with in this game (like some I never played before - Oddwen?

Can't miss that). So, sir Menel, sign me up!

As for occupation, how about a frog hermit (that's not that I'd be a frog, but a hermit who has something to do with frogs).

Kath · 04-30-2008, 05:08 AM

I shall be a turtle herder, as this will explain any slowness from me in the fist couple of Days when I will still be somewhat busy RL-wise.

What is 3pm EMT in GMT+1?

Nogrod · 04-30-2008, 06:00 AM

I'll be an ale-barrell salesman.

Menel's timezone It should be -5GMT so 3PM USeastern should be 8PM GMT.

I sent this at 3PM Finnish time which is GMT+3 ie. the time of this post is 12PM GMT sharp. So if you Menel check what the time of my post is in your computer and report whether it is 7AM your time or not? If it is all is fine. If not... then not.

Meneltarmacil · 04-30-2008, 07:54 AM

Actually, Nogrod's post was 8 AM my time, since I'm on Daylight Savings Time now.

So the Day/Night switch happens at 7 PM GMT.

Kath · 04-30-2008, 09:49 AM

7 pm is good for me.

Though it will mean I can't post for at least the first 16 hours or so of the game, just so you know.

satansaloser2005 · 04-30-2008, 10:23 AM

Meh. Yeah I'll be voting way before deadline part of the time, but I can deal with that. Besides....I can always post in class

Thinlómien · 04-30-2008, 03:57 PM

Aieeeeeeeeeeeeeeee............ last minute change of opinion.

Count me in.

I'll be a mad hatter.

(PS. If this game continues the week after next week and I'm still alive, my participation may reduce significantly, but we'll see...)

Gwathagor · 04-30-2008, 04:39 PM

Ok. We'll be sure to kill you first.

Lhunardawen · 04-30-2008, 08:46 PM

Ugh, 3 AM phase shifts. Ah well, I'll live.

Meneltarmacil · 04-30-2008, 08:51 PM

OK, Night One begins tomorrow at 7pm GMT.

Nerwen · 05-01-2008, 06:31 AM

Wait, I need a job!

I'll be the veterinarian. (I'm currently taking care of a sick moggie...)

Meneltarmacil · 05-01-2008, 12:30 PM

Roles have been sent out. If you haven't received a PM, you're an Ordinary Villager.

Also, Mithalwen has decided to join the game, which brings our number up to 13.

If you haven't yet chosen an occupation by the time the game starts, I'll choose one for you.

Mithalwen · 05-01-2008, 12:34 PM

I think I had better be a lumberjack .. not a great one, not a bad one .... just an okay one.....

Volo · 05-02-2008, 12:53 PM

I'll be away for the weekend, so I won't be able to post anything except "Hello, I exist- Bungo! Don't eat that!" on Day1.

satansaloser2005 · 05-02-2008, 12:56 PM

I have to take our youth group to a retreat tonight/tomorrow. I may post before I leave, but that'll be in like three hours, and after that I won't be on. Good luck on the first day everyone!

Aganzir · 05-03-2008, 08:08 AM

Do we have retractable votes? Multiple lynches?

edit: and what about modfire?

Seconded. Not wanting to be picky, Menel, but the Mod should see to have the really basic rules covered and explained properly... although it's partially our fault because we had a whole month to ask you. And maybe if you changed the time of DL as written in the first post of this thread to the real time of the DL, it will be also better, as now I was confused myself when I looked at it: "What? It's still two more hours till DL?" And it will be surely easier for the players to see it in the first post than to search for it through the thread...

And, what I mainly wanted to say: apologies for not voting today. My connection decided to have a malfunction right five minutes before the DL, and I couldn't get it up immediately.

Meneltarmacil · 05-03-2008, 02:28 PM

OK, it's all my fault. I'm sorry.

I didn't explain rules clearly, and I lost track of time today.

Votes aren't retractable, and there are no multiple lynchings. In the event of a tie, the victime will be determined randomly.

Mithalwen · 05-03-2008, 02:55 PM
