I can see what you mean but frankly if we just go forwards and backwards this game will last forever and it wil become boring. Your reaction is just something we need here. When there is danger then there are feelings and actions and this game makes sense - and becomes fun.

I mean it would be nice if no one died in werewolf so that we could all play it to the end - but then there would be no end to it and it would be a boring game of ww indeed.

Which rules are we playing by - every third person, or every fifth?

Nogrod, I understand your reasoning, but why Frodo? Why not Sauron, or the Witch King, or the Warg Leader? Why Frodo? He saved Middle-Earth, for goodness sake, and to make things worse, he was mis-represented in the movie.

Just about everyone bar Boromir was misrepresented in the Movie. Maybe they are just following Tolkien's example . Fodo is a tad doomed ...effectively dead once stabbed by the Witch-King. Morm said every 5 so...

Anyway - Hurt the sub-vogon poet and heal the shieldmaiden.

Nogrod is absolutely correct. We need to make a proper show of this.

Now, let me admit that the anti-Warg congregation on this website will never let the Chief Warg go so far as to win the competition-

-read all about the history of injustice towards Wargs on The Warg and Warg Rider Appreciation Thread

-but I am prepared to make alliances to ensure he reaches the latter stages of the competition, thus highlighting the glory of Wargdom in a new arena.

So: I am listening to your offers. Consider me a mercenary henceforth, with votes to buy.

The game's creator ended up saying every 3 and I'm good with that so let's go with that.
