On my planet, book keeper is a bean counter ie accountant..... though some of use also keep books in the other sense(as domestic pets...).

In the interest of creating maximum confusion, I will be a bookmaker.

Anyone want to be the Village Problem Gambler?

[Boromir88]

I presume you'll call yourself 'Roger'?
( Couldn't resist )~Inziladun

Sure, but please pronounce it "Row-jair"

I'm quite excited about this new role by the way Boro, it's wonderful.~wilwa

Thank you. I was first thinking of maybe some "Giant" role, but didn't know how you would be able to fit it in, then I remembered the Robber Bridegroom and looked up the story.

[Eomer of the Rohirrim]

I'll be the gravedigger.

[wilwarin538]

So I'm off to work soon, I will be back in about 9 hours. That is when I will put up the game thread. The 12 hours following that will be when I send out the roles. Then Night 1 will start Monday. So keep an eye out.

Anyone who wants to give me a job/role should do that fairly soonish.

Anyone know whether Lommy is definitely playing or not?

[Thinlómien]

I'm playing, but I have given myself rules: if I want to play I have to 1) wake up earlier and play before my scheduled studing time and 2) only play in the evenings once I'm done with my studying, so don't expect me to be as loud as I tend to be! I'll be the local minstrel, if that sounds good.

[wilwarin538]

Gaurcrist: Please respond to the Private Messages that I have sent you. Thank you!

Game thread is going up now, I will be sending about half of the roles out now, and leaving the other half til the morning time after I've gotten some sleep and sorted some issues out.

Everyone should be getting themselves invisible soon!

Updated list:

Nerwen - bookmaker
Eomer - gravedigger
Lommy - minstrel
Aganzir - jailor, arena and lions included
Sally - some poor serving girl who has no money to buy sweets
McCaber - humble shopkeeper
Izzy - baker
Mira - apothocary
Gaurcrist - blacksmith
Shasta - fletcher
Gwath
Boro88 - the shruberrer
Kath
Inziladun - shruberrer's apprentice
Fea - Storyteller
Nienna - bookkeeper
Greenie
Lari - fortune teller
Mith - herbalist
the phantom - the crazy book liberator

Greenie, Gwath and Kath can still give me roles/jobs if you would like. If not then you will be the drunk and the vagrant and the drunk vagrant for purely narrational purposes.

Fantastic! My friend in NZ used to work on a programme to help problem gamblers which was funded by their Lottery.....

I read the narrative. That Prince chap sounds like a real winner. I mean, his name is Philip. That's the first step to awesomeness right there- naming your kid after Lord Phantom.

Careful there, dear. If your head gets any bigger we'll have to change the theme of the game from fairy tales to nursery rhymes, and you'll have a big fall.



Incidentally I'm letting you all know ahead of time that now that I'm home from college my internet's a bit skittish. So if I do disappear that's why, but hopefully it won't be a problem. Oh, and the deadline's 8am my time and I am so not a morning person, so I'll be voting early. Shutting up now!

[Nogrod]

I'm soo unhappy not being able to take part in this one, but my days are basically on a minute schedual from now on to the end of the month and I would have no way of even reading through the thread every Day - not to talk of posting.

But I hope you all will have fun as this looks like a very entertaining game indeed both on grounds of the line-up and the setting of it.

All the best to everyone involved - and go village go! (my natural instinct... unless I'm a baddie. )

[satansaloser2005]

Poor Nog, not being able to play.

We could lynch you in absentia if you like....

Hahaha...no. I got Philip from the Disney movie Sleeping Beauty, because the Prince had no name in the original Grimm story.

But you go on and think what you like.

[the phantom]

Yeah, but the Prince in Sleeping Beauty was named after me, so same thing.

[Boromir88]

I noticed some of you still aren't in invisible mode. If you havent spotted it already, just double check and make sure you are invisible.

Err ever heard of Fella belong Mrs Queen?

[Nerwen]

*Nerwen crawls in to offer her usual apologies*

Sorry about missing the deadline yet again. Yes, I know this happens every Day One. I swear I don't do it on purpose... something always happens. It's a sort of... I don't know... karmic thing.

[Lariren Shadow]

Yes...just in case again...unless I go to Mira's internet place and use it then I have like internet cafe tomorrow. And will not be there for Day beginning. Oh spontanious traveling.
