Ah, good to see you making a public appearance Gaunt.

I should explain, especially to Sally, that Gaunt is one of my invitees and had already told me (face to face) that he would play. I just hadn't put him in the public list until he showed up here.

I sent out roles last night so I'm afraid you are too late, Sally.

In answer to Nogrod, yes I started Night 1 early. I didn't think there was a pressing need to wait. Don't worry: the deadline for the Days from now on will not randomly be two hours early.

I know I haven't explained everything very official like, and I've probably missed a few things (that can't be inferred by the narrative). Please point these things out and I'll explain (if the secrets permit it!)

But Nogrod's deadline IS two hours early..... that is one of the special rules isn't it Eomer?

I counted it one hour wrong and didn't pay heed to the difference between BD-time and realtime...

It seems to be as Eomer cryptically says it is eg. 10GMT +1 which would mean in more easy terms 9GMT...

No, that's totally fine, I just didn't realize this game was starting so soon. No worries; like I said, I didn't really have time to play anyway. Sounds fun though; I'm sure you'll all enjoy yourselves.

Question

I have a question about the rules: How is it decided who dies if several people get the same amount of votes? If I calculated correctly, Samwise, Kath and I all got two votes...

Okay, I should obviously start paying more attention to what Eomer says... Sorry.

Shasta has informed me that, unfortunately, he must drop out of the game due to having no time to spare. I'll take care of this in the narration tonight.
