Honestly if I had to put in every single accent mark I wouldn't bother... autocorrect in my word processor for me.

What time is it at Scarburg? I want to post for the hunting party, but I'm afraid that I have moved too fast with the hunting and return of the group. Should I stall a little longer?

I have the impression that it is before lunchtime still. I may be mistaken.

All groups are "stalled" (by Dueling Wizards, mind you) at late morning, except for the hunting party.

So here's what we're going to do. We will move time to late afternoon, plain and simple. All continuing action that has not been completed by the end of tonight will have to be narrated "after the fact" by means of 'flashback'.

Groin, put a heading of "late afternoon" on your next post, and please post tomorrow instead of tonight.

By the way, the vote so far:

Æthelward - 1
Lithor - 1
Wilcred - 1
Osmund - 2
Alfhere
Elfric - 2
Alfred
Redwald

Firefoot, your PM inbox is full. If you clear it, I'd like to send you a PM about this latest development

Firefoot · 06-09-2008, 11:39 PM

Mea culpa. All clear.

Gwathagor · 06-09-2008, 11:43 PM

And sorry about the signature, pio.

Gwathagor · 06-10-2008, 12:07 AM

There. Hopefully I've made him a little less pouty and a little more mysterious/tough.

littlemanpoet · 06-14-2008, 07:00 AM

Firefoot, that cracked me up.

Foley, care to have Thornden weigh in on the matter before Rowenna and/or Eodwine do?

Folwren · 06-14-2008, 02:22 PM

If you get a chance to post before I do, then go ahead. I will try to post sometime, but with how my younger siblings hog the computer playing Age of Empires, I don't know what my chances are. I would post now, but I am leaving soon for a picnic dinner with family and don't think I'll get back again tonight to write.

Wow, thanks.

Wasn't even trying...

I suppose that trying too hard tends to kill it, though, so maybe that's why it worked.

shaggydog · 06-15-2008, 07:04 AM

Great posts everyone! I've edited my post 136 to now accord with LMP's edit. Poor Dan! He's been stuck in that bog for quite some time

He's probably given up all hope of rescue

Eonwe, I see you were going to post, so I will wait until you do. If you prefer for me to go ahead, let me know.

Hey, I posted, and I'm in DW.

Admittedly, it was kind of a lousy, angsty post...I think I'll edit it.

Was this ever decided on - except that Lithor was taken into use?

I mean Stigend has with him: Æthelstan, guard5, guard6 (yeah, I found the post and it was as I was afraid it was, no PC's). So do I get to decide it or does lmp or anyone else have strong feelings about it? I'd say Redwald and Wilcred - but clearly Osmund and Elfric have two votes... I I'd vote for Wilcred it would bring him to two votes as well... if I'd just get someone to vote for Redwald wih me then it would be a tie of four... (playing too much werewolf)

I'll write them as someones and can change the names afterwards...

Another thing. Now if Stigend and his gang has been on the swamp, how come they have not seen Dan, Scyld and Oeric - or heard Dan's calls for help? Shall we assume the swamps are so big that they don't have an eyecontact? Or am I free to come up with added geography offering better chances for getting timber from a bit farther away? I guess that would be the better option.

And if you guys have nothing against it the "wood-gang" might spot you in the late afternoon if you are stil there...
