Okay, I have really, really bad news. The fact that this game never got off the ground is probably a good thing, because it is turning out that I couldn't keep up with it. I'm going to have to step back from modding for at least a month and a half. Camp and school is overwhelming at this point and internet is spotty where I am, at best. I will be available at the beginning of August. If people are not too mad at me, will I maybe be able to open this thread again for players towards the end of July?

I am really, really sorry. I could've pulled it off a while back when I first hoped to mod, but not now. Sadness.

I'm sorry, Foley. A bad set of circumstances seems to have stalked this game from the first.

I plan to be here for its revival later.

The Doom of the Noldor seems to have spread over this game...

What can we do? Unexpected things happen unexpectedly... Unlike what Eomer said, the unbidden does not always prove the best company...

But, looking on the bright side, I have nothing scheduled for August except for a music exam, so I should be in when this game happens.

I'm sorry to hear that, Foley.

In an effort to get the ball rolling again, then, who's next on the "list"? Was it you, Inzil?

I'm willing to host at any time as sort of a "filler" host, if there isn't anyone else, just for future reference. Anyone who signed up to host already should definitely go ahead and do it, though.

I think I was indeed next on the modding list. However, if anyone else is ready right now, go ahead.

If not, I could possibly have something up soon, say within a week or so. I don't think I'd need more than 12 players.

Not nice. Foley remember to poke me when you mean to start again and I'll be in unless I have some horriblew time constraint issue. And don't feel bad for this - I'm blaming our inactive werewolf players, not you.

Provided I'm still a workless bum (and even if I'm not) I'd like to play. Hopefully when it gets back on track I'll have the time to dedicate to it.

I'll try to have an Admin thread up before the weekend's out. Question is, can I get 12 people?

Third time pays for all, right? I'm willing to give this a go IF we can get it started by EARLY next week. School starts in something like two and a half weeks, I think. There is no possible way that I will be able to mod the beginning of a game after school starts. If this game is still in the works by that time, I think it'll be okay, as it will be tapering off towards its ending.

I will send PMs now to the people on the list.

We can wait until Sunday at least Kitanna. Looks like the earliest I can start this game will be Tuesday. Then I'll have internet at my own house.

Here's the players list so far:

Sally
Inzil
Nerwen
Boro
Galadriel
Eruhen
Bom

Maybe:
Kitanna

Sad to hear that Foley. This has really born under some bad sign in the very beginning.

But yay Inzil! Werewolfing to be done!

The beginning of August, you say? I might have to put myself on the list for this. It sounds like a fun game.
