We would like to start the game on Tuesday or Wednesday (June 6th or 7th), if we just have enough players by then (we are four players short by now - but we might take a couple of more, not too many though). We have now PM'd a couple of people and hope Kath's game will provide us with one or two more before our planned starting date.

The game will begin with the Night-phase, as usual: the werecreatures making their initial plans and the Seer coming up with a dream.

Lalaith: if we go with the retraction option, it will be only once/Day. The idea being, that they can be used in need (RL insecurities). But as it is impossible to make any ruling that could be controlled and that would not just hinder the gameplay (everyone explaining their situation at every twist of their RL), everyone is granted to do whatever they see fit to use their one retraction.

I have a suggestion for anybody without an occupation. I noticed that Boro was being The Mouth of Turgon. Why not have someone be The Mouth Of Turgon's Dentist?

Boromir88 · 06-04-2006, 11:05 AM

Haha, Glirdan, but I would bet that Turgon's mouth is full of pearly whites as he would have top of the line Gondolin dentists.

Kitanna · 06-04-2006, 11:51 AM

I think I can play if there's still room.

Lalaith · 06-04-2006, 12:07 PM

Yes, I see the point, Noggie. If only Azaelia, for example, had had a retractable vote...

Roa_Aoife · 06-04-2006, 01:03 PM

Just something I'd like to point out- including Kath, we have 12 players. With 3 wolves, a seer, a hunter, a ranger, and a cobbler, those with special roles willl out number ordinary villagers. May I suggest holding off on the cobbler until we know we will have more players? Perhaps if Tom and Nilp concrete their presence?

We have no intention to play with only 12 players. We're going to recruit 3 more at least before starting.

Welcome, Kitanna, there's room.

Noggins, your PM box was full so I'll post this here.

Thanks for the invite. I'd love to play, but I will be away for a week, beginning 14 June, so the timing ain't great for me. You have some great players there, so I shall be sorry to miss it. But I'll be sure to keep an eye on it.

Encaitare · 06-04-2006, 05:01 PM

I'd like to play.

I shall be a standard-bearer... a bit unwieldy in the wind, but it helps keep people from getting lost.

And my voting...
