Ok, good idea about killing characters, Nuranar, even though I don't know how we'd actually contact Maika. But I guess that if she doesn't check in by the time we get to the battling and stuff that we can do with her character what we like. I think thats in the rules, if I remember correctly. Anyways, everyone can just do what you want with your character's fate, which is what normally happens anyways. But with characters that have no players, we'll be democratic and vote on what happens to them, so...

Who all votes for Devon to bite the dust? Vote either "yea" or "nay."

"Yea"= a vote in the affirmative for death

"Nay"= a vote in the negative for death

My reasoning for voting NOW is that if we get to the battling at the end, we'll already have our plan on what we're going to do and we won't have to waste anymore time deciding that. If Maika does show up, then all's well. But at least we'll be prepared.

Ok, you Gondorians get posting and get the island scenario set up so that Doran, Jurex, and Acacia can show up and start the battling. We'll set a deadline so that we don't run out of time for this whole RPG.

Doran, Jurex, and Acacia will arrive on the island and start battling on Thursday May 20th. All players wishing to get in pre-island posts need to do so NOW.

That leaves us 10 days for the trials and wrapping it up.

Let's Go!!!

Yea!

But hey, we're talking major drama of the duel-ish persuasion, I assume?

Shire rules state:

Any character that goes missing for a two week period of time can be "killed off" or "lost" and will be out of the game.

The character, Devon, may be carried along now and disposed of in any manner the other gamers see fit.

The plan sounds good. I'm standing by for posts.

YEA for Devon (or.... against Devon, I should say) - its about time the little rip got what he deserved.

I would like Graring to be left on the island. You know, the hermit thing. Jurex will not be captured. He will die, a tragic end to a miserable and desolate life. Poetic, actually.

Anyway, its about time this game rested in Elvenhome. Give it your all this last week or so, troops!

Sounds excellent. You reached the point I was trying to get to, Earendil, though, after all that, I was unable to reach it...

I will get up a post for Rakein, having him spot Doran landing on the island before or after you post the landing, Earendil, and have him report this to Devon. If that's okay with everyone...? If you have a preference as to when (before or after, or anything more precise...), Earendil, then just let me know and I will do my best to get the post in when you want it.

Thanks!

Yeah, thats the spirit! I like that kinda talk, Himaran!

Durelin I figure it will be better if you posted about Rakein after I posted Doran's landing. I plan on going no further than the landing, so then you can take any details you want and add to your post, if you like. I'll post the landing sometime Thursday evening and we'll fight to Sunday evening. Oh, btw, what was your vote?

Any more votes?

piosenniel · 05-18-2004, 07:04 PM

My vote is for the posting on the game to begin . . .
