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?

No, I really am this clueless!

Is there going to be a no-discussing- this-on-blogs cheating rule then, too?

Bloggers' rights of free speech are put on hold for the duration of the game. Yes: Werewolf is that important.

Thanks Nogrod. Incidentally, a belated happy birthday. Your PM box was full.

Costumes, costumes. I think I shall go as Vorgram, Ancient Prince of Wargs. That will require a specially good mask.

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.

It seems she never did... Oopsies.

I'm sorry I haven't seen it yet! Maybe it's time to bug her...that shouldn't go to waste!

Edit: Sorry, had to think through the time stuff...

You definitely have a point, although, on Night 1 that's still the wolves time to talk, even though they don't pick a kill. No one's sure if they're going to be a wolf or not (I have no clue right now, too!), so I guess they'd all best be prepared to be there as much as they can even on Night 1.
