Heh. I suppose I might as well admit that I PM'ed a certain Downer who fits that description with a "nudge nudge we're on a ship, ooh pirates" sort of message. He seems to be ignoring me, though.

++10 PM because I'm used to being in the weird time zone. Besides, I'm still in my last class for the day on 8 AM (which is 3 PM here, thanks Nilp).

Also, --retractable votes.

And no same-sex Lovers!

As for my occupation, I shall be a seasick reluctant traveler.

Indeed? Let me give that a try...

Aww, Di, I'm sorry. But I think most of us know (indeed - I knew beforehand almost exactly who'd protest against the idea of same-sex Lovers) our fellow Downers too well to not be able to guess.

I am rolling my eyes. We all agree different sex Lovers are cool. Some of us are opposed to the other kind of pairing. Then the choice is easily made - in my opinion.

Firefoot - since we are not having the same-sex Lovers, I will be forced to put you on the maybe list. The game is already unbalanced in favour of the women, so we need some male sign ups first.

Please continue the voting!

I'm in!

Well, since I'm already on the list of players I won't be asking if there's place for me but just confirming that I will be playing.

I just have to think of a job thingie..

Oh and 10 PM would work perfectly for me, asking me to get up at 8 AM during my holidays.. well my sis knows that won't happen .

And

--Retractable Votes .

Taliesin, I don't know where you're based, but you do realise that it's 10pm UK time (currently GMT+1).

It has occured to me that I will be able to stick around much closer to the deadline if it's 10pm rather than 8am. So ...

++ 10pm

I am conservative too, by the way, which means that I hold true to traditional Tory libertarian values.

So, if I were feeling mischievous, I would be tempted to ask why those who feel that they would have no fun with a same-sex lover role are perfectly capable of having fun as a bloodthirsty werewolf ...

But I'm not, so I won't.

Sauce...Taliesin is the famed Not-Cailin. He's based where Cailin is based.

Or indeed seemingly have no problem with the possibility of a married downer being the lover of someone who is not their spouse...

I know, these wild crazy Yanks, if they're not guzzling away at each other's bloodied corpses they're committing shameless adultery, makes me feel like Mary Whitehouse*, I tell you....

Yeah, probably. I do prefer straight Lovers myself, from the RP and narrative aspects, I just think it's rather a bit of a disadvantage to both the Lovers and the Wolves -- so long as the Village knows there's no chance of it being otherwise. But here I am thinking like a Wolf/Lover when I am bound by fate to be an innocent of the ordinary persuasion. So, okay, no same-sex Lovers, it'll give those nasty wolves an easier time to hide!

Maybe you should join Lhuna and me in the Eomer-pestering.

I feel so desired, even if it's only to see me hang. Ok, I'm in.

I think they should be long-lost Twins or something rather than Lovers. Think of the fun to be had with the narrations!

Was about to say that myself... *evil grin* Ah well. Nice to see you here, big bro.

Hmm...if we can't get any more male players, then I'm fine with same sex "Lovers." Just please call them anything but Lovers, please?

Welcome to Werewolf, Taliesin! Funny you didn't choose to call yourself Not-Cailin...'cause it seems that's what people will call you even with your name.
