Man, and Foley's death would have been so cool to do...

Welcome, Cailin! I'm glad you chose to come back to this insanity.

Here's the updated Guest List:

~*~*(Tentative) Guest List*~*~

Durelin as Thuringwethil (Mod and Hostess)
CaptainofDespair as The Witch-King (Co-mod and Host)
mormegil as a (Kewl-Shades) Rude Boy
Kath as a (Beautiful) Butterfly
Farael as a Fair-looking Orc
Rikae as an Entwife
Nogrod as a Nice Choirboy
Lalwende as a (Mischievous Little) Christmas Elf
Kitanna as a Rejected Band Member wearing a bag with eyeholes (teh ugly bag?!

)
Naria as a Spoiled Heiress wearing a Venetian half mask
Macalaure as a Mime
Celuien as a Cowgirl
Valier as a Flighty Young Woman wearing an exotic colourful bird mask (clever!)
Eomer as Vorgram, Ancient Prince of Wargs
Cailín as a Robin
Holbytlass as a Court Jester
Folwren as an Elegant, Cold, Stoic, Mysterious Countess

We have 14 players, not counting Lommy (because I'm assuming she's going to have to pull out). That's the number I wanted at least, so I'm very happy! There's still room for more, though!

Sorry, Foley - cross-posted...imagine that!

And sorry, I should have payed closer attention. If you really want to play and actually feel you can, I'd love to have you, but you're not absolutely needed, so if you feel like that would be a bit too much on your plate, then you'll be missed, but we'll understand.

Actually, starting the night on Sunday at 2:00 pm sounds good, but that would mean we end with a Day on the 23rd which feels odd to me. Still, it that can work fine.

So, Sunday the 17th at 2:00 pm EST will be our (still rather tentative) start date. If that time is impossible for anyone, just let me know. We will start with a Night and all that jazz.

Mmm, mmm, I think Eomer and I would really prefer to start the 18th. Actually, the 17th may be quite impossible. Sorry for being so troublesome.

YAY Cailin!! Glad to see you back in ww

Durelin, the 18th would work better for me as well.

Durelin · 12-13-2006, 12:28 PM

Alrighty, I'm not picky, so I suppose we'll wait until the 18th.

So, we'll go with: Night 1 begins on Monday, the 18th, at 2:00 pm EST.

It's about 1:40 pm EST at this post.

Sooo, that would be 7pm GMT? On Monday? And that will be a Night, where werewolves can kill gamers? Then from 7pm on Tuesday, it will be a day, when villagers talk about who's a werewolf and who to lynch?

Have I got it?

Kath · 12-13-2006, 01:14 PM

You've got it!

Is anyone else getting the feeling that Lal has been religiously following these games for years and is just putting on this newbie act so as to heartily shock us when Durelin makes her a wolf and she sails through to a win? Or is that just the natural paranoia of werewolf?

Folwren · 12-13-2006, 01:21 PM

Hm. Are you folks all sure about what you're saying? About the first night starting on Monday? That means, all of Monday the 18 is wasted, and most of Tuesday, the 19, is wasted, too, because it's all during the Night. Nothing can happen the first Night, except some chatting between the two wolves. A seer doesn't even get to dream.

If we were to start Night 1 on Sunday the 17, at 2:00 P.M. EST, some of the time on Monday 18 could be used for Day 1, which would be benecifial for the dancers.

Do I make sense? It's kind of hard to explain.

Yes, I know. With a character like that? I envy you already! By the way, did Jenny ever put up the post I wrote for your death in her game? It was very much fun writing it.
