Tol-in-Gaurhoth (Isle of Werewolves) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Sorry friends but something I ate has... disagreed with my stomach. I won't stay up tonight, hopefully tomorrow I'll feel better

Well, that was a brilliant game. I don't know if I'll be in the next or not, might depend on it's starting date.

But now I've got a pretty crazy idea, it doesn't have to do a lot with the games themselves, more toward the threads. I'm sure that at least Saucepan will read this and if he thinks its a good idea, then he'll probably pull some strings to get it done.

So we have, at the least, twenty threads specifically for Tol-in-Gaurhoth.

15 WW game threads (including this thread)
2 WWJ game threads
WWJ set-up thread
At least two 'pick-a-team' type threads

What if we put all the Tol-in-Gaurhoth threads in a sub-forum? I know I've tried to go back and look at the old games, but some are rather hard to find. It takes a good three or four searches to pull up all of the games. It would be a lot easier to get at them if they were all there right in front of us in one forum. I don't really know how much work it actually takes to put up a sub-forum, much less move all the threads, but I think it would be a pretty awesome way to have the old games displayed if anyone wanted some interesting reading. So anybody like the idea? Dislike it? Moderators want to shoot me for suggesting more work?

...Or maybe move the completed games to Elvenhome?

For those who might be interested, here is the score up till now (not counting WWJ).

(Since we recently had some role reversal, I'll use the phrase "The Three" for the you know whos.)

The Three have won 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, and 14 for a total of ten wins.

The Ordos have won 4, 6, 8, 12, and 15 for a total of five.

The Black Beornings have won squat for a total of naught.

We Downers definitely seem to be better at sneaking about and underhanded skull duggery as the ordos have yet to win two games running.

At least, at this moment, they have a foundation to build on.

Perhaps if the next game(s) would also be switched...

Or maybe we could try even new roles? say, as Orcs might have been 'created' from tortured elves, perhaps a party of orcs got into an elven town? then we'd have maybe Eol as the cobbler, Glorfindel as the ranger, Elrond as the hunter and Galadriel as the seer?

Just thinking out loud here, but let me know what you guys think!

The werewolves (almost) always win. So if we keep the werewolves ordinary a few more games, the Ordos will have a better chance catching up with the Three Stoogies.
