Either a week from now or waiting till the 20th is fine with me.

20th is fine for me. I would like to have a brake anyway.

Glirdan · 10-28-2005, 10:11 PM

The 13th until the 26th is a REALLY bad time for me. My school is putting on a musical and I'm part of the pit band and we have practice until 8 o'clock after school and then the musical starts on the 18th and doesn't end until the 26th. Anytime after that is fine and if we started sooner, it'd be even better. But by all means, start it then. My posting just won't be regualr and I won't be able to defend myself much or get much posting done.

I'm now leaning toward starting the game next week (probably on Saturday, which would be NIGHT 1) but I have to still think about it a while. In the meantime, we could discuss time zones. How many of you have immense difficulties if the days start and end at 7 or 8 pm. GMT?

Well, I wasn't saying I wished for the werewolf games to stop.

Since I'm going to take a break till at least December, even though I'm sorely tempted to just continue playing, don't wait for me - though I'm sure you weren't going to.

Also, I'd really like to try modding a game sometime after Christmas, but I'm not sure if you should let me, since I'll likely use all signed up players as psychological test subjects.

I have a suggestion that might make you all dislake me very much, But I think it would be a good idea. here goes:

I think we should stop all Werewolf games untill next summer.

REASONS!!!!

- us students have a lot of homework, and WW distracts us(atleast for me it does) even if we all say we wont play any till December, its just not true, the next mod will sign up and we'll all want to play

- if the games keep on going WW will start to die out and then disappear completely, I'm already getting a little bored with it, but I still want to play

- we could still have a Christmas game, but that should be the last one after Spawns till the summer

- then summer comes along and we could have as many games going as we want, but once school starts the games stop, we have a chritmas one, then we wait till summer again

- WW is very popular, I'm afraid people are going to start registering for the Downs only for the purpose of playing WW, that would so not be fun

- I havnt been doing as good in the WW games as I had during the summer, I only have about 2 hours in the day where I can post. i think thats probably the case for most people

Soooooo, How many of you want to hurt me right now for suggesting this?

Anguirel · 10-29-2005, 05:47 AM

I don't want to hurt you, Wilwa, but I disagree with you a wee bit.

Not all of us are students. Of those of us who are students, not all of us are industrious. Some of us are even, I would hazard, bone-idle procrastinators.

And besides, it's a proven fact that Werewolf is good for the brain!

I am a bit concerned by the idea of Werewolf registrators, but I'm sure that if they step out of line they'll be easily dealt with by the mods, and either rehabilitated into the community or fed to Sharku for breakfast...

Celuien · 10-29-2005, 06:08 AM

Ah yes, Ang, the joys of procrastination are numerous. I have a pile of assignments that I've been putting off on the stated basis of being busy work, although I did make up for it by finishing others for the same class a month in advance.

As for breaking until summer, I also have to disagree. It's true that not everyone here is a student. And even among those of us who are students, not everyone has a summer break. I don't.

So I guess we'll just have to find a way to balance Werewolf addiction with schoolwork.

I think that 7-8 PM GMT works out to 2-3 PM in the eastern US, which fine with me.
