I too am not going to be able to play if it gets pushed back any farther. Even this weekend is going to be pressing it for me, though I said nothing on the strength of the hope that it would get pushed no farther, and because I really want to play, but if we start any later, I'll have to pull out so as not prompt Mod-firing at a later point.

Unless you promise to make a cobbler, then I can flirt with lynching all I like.

For the record, also: since signing up, my summer has started to saturate with activity, so I'm not going to be utterly depressed if you hold the game back and I can't play, so if the numbers warrant it, let it stand that I'm not going to be sad or anything.

If you don't play I shall mope around the entire game. And I don't expect others will handle it much better.

Oh, I don't know about that. Provoking the irritation of a mopey the phantom has its benefits. Plenty of fireworks, certainly.

And with all the cobblers in this game, there should be a good five or so that will not mind if heads roll.

Note: I'm moving into college on the 16th and starting class on the 20th, so I might be a little less active as I get settled in.

What does a good Libra do in such a tricky situation? He tries to find a compromise all can live with. Even if he has to kill for it.

Fea: 20th or later
Legate: 23rd or later
Lalaith: better before 23rd
Kitanna: better before 23rd
Form: not later than 16th

I fear the 23rd doesn't suit many here very well, so I don't think it's a good option. Sorry, Legate.

Fea, Form, would the 18th be a date you could both live with? Fea, you would only miss Day 1, and Form, keep in mind that the village isn't going to be too huge and that on a few nights, two will die.

You shall surely find someone more worthy of your adoration than I... Though it may not be for many lifetimes... and certainly not before this game begins... I can only hope that the others can offer you consolation for your loss - if temporary - of me...

I know how terrible the withdrawal can be...

I could play if it helps ... I am taking some time off and while I had thought I might go away consoling the Phantom might be more fun Of course I would love Fea to play... it would be quite like old times...

Okay then. As long as everybody involved knows that I'll be away until Wednesday afternoon, then bring it on.

Unfortunately, without you playing, it will be a little less worth watching, but it can't be helped...

Yay!


Sad to see you go, Volo. Great to have you on board, Mith and Groin!


Alright, game is planned to start on the 18th with Night One. Game thread should be up tomorrow.
