Can't resist. The singular is "nemesis" while the plural would be "nemeses" (pronounced nem-uh-seez).

Thank you good sir, I was guessing and wrong.

Okay. The game thread is now created with an initial narration. There are already a few hints / teasers about the oncoming game in there. Although even if I have used in one place a wording that might be interpreted as the Gaur making a choice - it will not mean that the moderator would be spreading the roles by choices. All the roles will be drawn with a deck of cards.

If you would like to have occupations you should send them to this thread. If all have not time or a possibility to give one I may draw them from the hat before the game starts.

The Deadline of 10PM GMT seems to be the one we're going for.

I will be establishing the full rules in the game thread probably tomorrow - or at last on Saturday - so all the points and questions concerning them should be made in the near future...

Can I be the village beekeeper?

No-one ever suspects the beekeeper...

Yes...

Then you cannot be the beekeeper in that case...

Surely.

I'll be adding your occupations as soon as I get them. If you don't come up with one, I'll come up with one for you...


I will be sending the roles to you quite several hours early on Sunday. The questionnaire will be included so everyone will get a PM with a role and the questionnaire. I hope you could answer the questionnaires early enough so that I will have time to count them together before the Day1 opening post will be due on Monday 10PM GMT. (Remember: no personal views will be revealed, only the overall count in narrative way eg. no numbers)

The wolves may use the extra hours for their benefit if they like...
