Now they're Curséd? Wow. They just be the french inhabitants of tinseltown.

I love the idea of having french!!! I think I'll incorporate that in with my occupation......

Oi, I can't wait much longer. Well, atleast we picked a Saturday to start the first day, so I have College Football to keep me busy until we start. If it was a weekday (when nothing's ever on in the afternoon) I would explode.

And on another note. I work on Sunday from 1-6 (honestly they should declare working on Sunday illegal). So, I will be gone for probably 6-7 hours. Though, Sunday should be Night Phase...correct? So, I shouldn't be effected.

While I do agree that an "open" game may make people raise their game ..they also may also be overwhelmed by very experienced players and just coast... if the big names aren't there they will have to participate more.

And I certainly wasn't suggesting that the rules should change ..or that the roles should be given patronising names. I just think that this is a game where experience does count. I think that games played rather than length of time would be a factor.... Also maybe divided games should be alternated with "open" ones.

If there is a continual demand for space.. the division of parralel games might be "short format" / " long format" . Not everyone can commit to a 20 bod game .

Since moderating is a lot of work, I would emphasise that the moderator should retain control over the kind of game they want to run. But that shouldn't really be affected by whether the game is palyed by tenderfoots or old hands. Mind you I seem to be the only mod who works to the beat of a different drum so maybe I am just talking for myself. A return to Midsommer Mawlin will involve retractable votes and the mythomaniac

and will not involve Shirriffs..

What I was thinking for it was to start off with the basicis. Have a maz of 15 people minimum of 12. Have 3 wolves, 1 seer, 1 hunter, 1 ranger. I was originally thinking of having only 1 shirriff but as Saucy pointed out to me in a PM, it would be pretty useless. So in addition to the othr roles, have 2 shirriffs and 1 cursed villager. Any other idea's????

Mith, exactly what do you mean by having divided games??

I meant that if 2 games were running at the same time the division did not have to be novices and experienced ... but could be one game with say only 12 people and just werewolfs seer and a big game with wolves, beorning, shirriffs the whole shebang.... just ideas...
