Valier your junior list is spot on!!

However, the senior list should look somethin like this(should it not?):

Ang allowed Mith his spot. No word from either of the two since my last update mod list, so I don't know if he and/or she are still going to mod?
Morm was/is next(?)....another question mark.

Durelin
Oddwen(?)
Foley
Menel--expressed interest in post 3583
Fordim(?)


As one can clearly see, there are a few question marks. I don't know if Morm(or someone else) should pm the questioned ones and find out if they are going to mod or if they should just be passed on and put to the bottom of the list.

Like Val says, I hope this helps

I would agree that, given current interest levels, the WWJ thread should be retired, at least for the time being. Gil's game could stand as the WWJ farewell game.

As for the upcoming mod lists, I have always thought that those who have not modded yet should be given priority.

Why not give those on the various lists an opportunity to post here, confirm that they are still interested in modding and indicate when they are likely to be able to mod - and then combine the two lists accordingly?

To confirm what I said, I do indeed wish to mod a game in the future, and have a rather interesting idea about what to do with the roles. Thank you for putting me on the short list there.

Since I have modded once before, I'll step aside for those who never have, though.

I'm not going to be able to give it much attention until a few days into January though, as some major Christmas vacations are coming up.

To confirm: I've not yet modded a game, and was planning to do mine next since pretty much everyone before me on the "older" list were too busy to mod games, and a number of them, I believe, have modded before.

And I'm able to mod whenever. Calculus can certainly take a backseat to...well, just about anything.

If there are people who have been waiting longer on either the normal WW or Junior list to mod, they can step ahead of me if it's a good time for them now.

But if I'm next, just give me the word and I can start sign up on this thread, or post my own sign up/"admin" thread.

I think it would be nice for Gil's game to be the last WWJ game, or we could simply switch it to the normal WW XXVII game and then mine would simply be next.

Folwren reporting, sir. I would like to mod a game. And I have never modded a game, either. Put me wherever is convenient. After New Year preferably.

If we do with the way it seems to go right now, then Gil will have his game in TiGJ. I do hope it will happen, but I fear it's not so certain as we have not heard too much from him...

Then Durelin is on the TiG.

Then it would be my turn in TiGJ...

If we combine the threads and play only one thread - which I think is reasonble - we should stick with this order. Although if Foley has not modded a game before, it might be justified to let her game go before mine for I have co-modded one game already (the werepenguins -game with Lommy).

I have an idea to my game, though. It will be a "duel" of forces, including three wolves (planning together) vs. three rangers (acting individually). So making it harder for the wolves to pick a kill and just nerve-wrecking for the rangers. So kind of basic game with a twist and possibly more interesting with the narrations...

He did?

Oh... I didn't realise ..I was so far down the list at the start of the lull that I didn't expect to mod for about a year ....... so haven't been giving this thread much attention. I hope we will do our game sometime but thought I started thinking about it again after Fea's game I couldn't do it immediately and having modded twice I quite agree that first timers should take priority.....
*need to consult with Ang and find out what he wants to do...*

Hm. Hearing people's ideas for games makes me wonder if people would be alright with having a normal WW game, with Seer, Ranger, Hunter, and Wolves have regular rolls, or if I should come up with something original? If I need to think of some strange, new, twisted way to play the game, let me know with some advance so I can think of something before my turn...

No strange, twisted new game is needed, Folwren; a regular game would be just fine.

Simple games can work very well - don't feel obliged to do anything peculiar .... remember if everyone is doing variations normal becomes original...

Well, I guess so. I know that I personally really like the original way of it all.....
