Some time ago, towards the beginning of the time I put up this thread, I asked...gosh, I asked all sorts of people. Let's see...
Rikae, Mac, Anguirel, Phantom, Lommy, Greenie, Nogrod, (some of whom are on the list, I think), um........Durelin, Shasta....

I went to the last several WW games to see who has been playing recently, and I'm pretty sure I sent all of them PMs. I think I wrote at least 15 or so, about. I can't remember all the names.

Some may be available again. A lot were busy because they'd joined an RPG and they didn't want to do both a WW game and an RPG at the same time. That game is still going.

If you could drum up some business, that'd be amazing.

And I am sorry for not responding earlier to Inzil and Pitchwife. Inzil, we are indeed waiting for people to become available to play.

And Pitchwife...I really don't see how I could change the rules more than I have to require fewer players. The nature of the game is such that fewer than 15 players would be...well...boring.

But it is true, I need to start this, because before too long, even I will not be available.

Alright, well, when this started up, I didn't sign up because I wanted a break from WW. I think I've had my break. You can put me on the list, and I'll be good to play any time.

I have something to say that some may think is good news and some may think bad, I dunno, but here it is:

Sally has PMed me, suggesting that she do her WW game now and I do mine either next or at a later date when more people are available. This suggestion was made because her game can be played with fewer players (she said a dozen or so) and mine would be much better with no fewer than fifteen, which we've all discussed before.

This arrangement will permit all you very faithful, paitent folks to actually PLAY a game NOW instead of waiting indefinitely for more people to become available.

My game will be put on hold until Sally's game is finished. Then, if more players are available, I will probably be available to Mod it. If we still have this problem of too few players and/or I am busy with summer affairs, it can be put on the back burner and it can be played later.

I would like to assure you that this game will eventually be played and I would love to have every one of you on board for it. I'm extremely sorry that it hasn't worked out yet.

What do you all think?

I don't want to play werewolf per se but I was am interested in your game. I hope to be available for your game when it is available but I prefer to use my time to RPG otherwise - have waited years for that to revive....

Obviously I'm fine with it either way. If you magically get enough people in the next few days, I would of course want you to mod when it's more convenient for you, but it seems that people are busy with the RPG threads (and fair enough with that!) so I'm hoping a smaller game can run in the meantime, and then people can be free to play your game once the RPG section isn't quite as busy.

Well, I'd very much like for you to play in my game if you can find the time. I promise Shelob and good times*. If not, do enjoy the RPG section. It's good to see it so active after so long!



*Note: The two conditions are not mutually exclusive. All players sign up at their own risk, and I refuse to pay for tetanus shots should the need arise.
