Because of the possible confusion, we will announce this here for this one time:

WWJ IX: Psychotic Penguins: The Crossing of Helcaraxë

So what really happened to Elenwë? What was the fate of the Noldor lost on the Grinding Ice? Who were those guys with the black suits? Who was behind all that? What is the meaning of life anyway? And what has Cartesian Dualism to do with any of this?

This TiGJ-game will start in early June (after Kath’s game has been going on for a while)!

Book your tickets here to take part in this adventure – and to test the effectiveness of Hume’s guillotine!

I've received a rep point sans name saying I was missed. I have met the perfect storm of a non-participation-causing maelstrom.
Lost my job, had to move, lost my companion, my felines were taken away by aforementioned companion and then my lousy little lap top completely crashed and burned and I hope it will return home soon from the shop.
Anyways, I hope things will be close to normal soon and I hope to kick your behinds in the next WW. Cheers all.

There is a link to the Junior Planning thread in Thinlomien's post, where you can sign up, fellows. This thread is currently reserved for notices of serious departure pertaining to LMP's WW game.

I mention it because, that being the case, signing up here may well not be valid.

Naria · 05-25-2006, 12:03 AM

Form, I may be misunderstanding what you are saying. Is what you are saying only pertaining to the Lomgrod game or Kath's as well(or both)? I don't really understand what the problem is. If one has died in the Little guy's game, why would one not be able to come on here and sign up or talk about another game? Is that not what this thread is for?

This thread isn't for signing up until LMP's game is done.

I was referring to Lomgrod's game, true enough. That is a Junior game, chronologically, and should, in any circumstances, be signed up for on the Junior Planning Thread.

As for Kath's game, she has directed that all those interested in joining PM her, so as not to clutter up this thread with chatter not related to the game in progress.

So yes, anyone dead in LMP's game can sign up- actually, since neither game starts until LMP's is over even the living can theoretically join-, and yes this thread is normally for that purpose, but no it is not to be used as such at this time.

Hope that explains it better...

Kath · 05-26-2006, 11:31 AM

Hi, poking my nose in again.

Could everyone currently signed up for my game please PM me with their occupations. I forgot that before.

Also, could no one else sign up by PM now please. I have everyone I need if the few I have as maybe's say yes.

Therefore could those I have as maybe's (I think that's only Mith, morm, and SPM) give me a definite answer within the next day or two.

Thank you!

That was me. Blame the clumsy fingers for the anonymous state of the rep. You are missed.

And envied?

Yes. The 100% lynch rate remains a wonder to behold.

Enedwaith, hope everything turns out well. Then get your behind back here!

Oh, and Kath, I'll be an ex-World Champion in Chess. With suicidal tendencies, of course.

Kath · 05-28-2006, 04:45 AM

Celuien and Lommy I need occupations from you.

Sauce I need a yes or a no from you.

Now, to other matters.

Rules:
Deadline will be 11pm GMT - please don't ask me to translate that into EST or CST or anything because a) I won't be able to and b) my head will explode if I try!

NO double lynchings - if there is a tie the first person to get the most votes will be lynched.

Retractable votes - because I love the mad frenzy at the end when we have those.

Roles:
3 werewolves
Seer
Ranger
Hunter
Changeling - the person with this role will choose another player each Night and will gain that players power for the Night, in place of the real Gifted. For example, if I was the Seer and Lommy was the Changeling, if Lommy chose me that Night she would dream in my place, but I would be informed of who she dreamed of. If the Changeling chooses a wolf, that wolf cannot join in the Night's PMing (once they know they've been chosen) but nor can the Changeling. However, the Changeling does get final decision on the kill. They cannot choose the same person until 2 Night's has passed, and they cannot reveal anything they have learned about people's roles at Night, but while in posession of a Gift (be it good or evil) they are on that teams side. So, as a wolf they could kill the Seer if they knew who the player was, and as the Seer they could dream of a wolf to let the real Seer know who one was.

If that makes any sense to anyone I will be amazed. I'm not going to be here for quite a lot of the day but please ask questions, argue amongst yourselves, and will try to sort it all out when I come back, which should be at around 7.

The game will be starting today at 11pmGMT with a Night phase.

Celuien · 05-28-2006, 04:49 AM

Occupation...

Ketchup grower. Yes, it does grow on trees.

Kath · 05-28-2006, 04:51 AM

Of course it does! Thanks.

Thinlómien · 05-28-2006, 05:42 AM

I will be an AA-advisor.

edit: or consultant, or whatever you call those guys. Kath, feel free to rephrase my occupation, I think you know what I mean anyway.
