Agreed about the random genders for wolves- Nilp had balanced genders and it killed the wolves, what was left after the Seeriffs. The only good thing was that he didn't let the village know the genders were balanced...

Heh. It's more the double lynchings that got you then, big bro.

And actually, I think the four wolves was for hiding the Lover-wolf, and the Seeriffs to balance the four wolves.

But yes...I do recall that the wolves *ehem* had to consider gender in their choices for Night kills, which made it a lot trickier. There were even suggestions of killing/lynching all...males, was it? Hoom hoom.

I guess I can keep the conservative side of me quiet for a bit and agree with same-sex, uh, relationships. Or you could do like Nilp, Cailin, and not tell us what you've decided, but that probably won't keep us from speculating and plotting gender-related stuff during the game.

We currently have nine males and ten females aboard, which is pretty good. Could the maybes please let me know as soon as possible whether they are able to play? If they do, I shall try to recruit more male-Downers before Monday.

We will start on the nineteenth of June with a Night phase. Roles will go out prior to the official start of the game. I'm a bit thrown by the huge discussion concerning the same sex Lovers. The conservatives among you will be happy to hear the Lovers will stay as they are. I don't want to see anyone unhappy or uncomfortable, I will not use the Twins idea, so that's the final word. I'm happy to see you can be flexible, but I am not asking you to be this time.

That may make the job of the Lovers even harder or nearly impossible. But that's life for Romeo and Juliet, no?

P.S. why is everyone asking me not to write sappy and graphic love scenes? Do I seem like someone who would? I think you are all extremely prejudiced.

P.P.S. Holby - for an extensive description of the Lovers, please see this and all following posts. Sorry I did not answer your question sooner: with limited typing skills, I hoped someone else would.

Thanks Morm and Cailin for the help. I'm glad to see that you are feeling better, Cailin. It had been missed-no worries- I'm the whale hunter.

No man, Cailín, no man...

Can I be the slavedriver? And can Rune and Kath be the slaves?
