If you managed to post that much you might have as well posted the situation and we could have continued... I mean it's pretty late here and we need to go to sleep...

With the situation myself and Lommy face this is the most unfortunate as we're going to the countryside within something like 14 hours (and we need to sleep before it)... And in principle open ended deadlines / starting hours are bad as they would require one to be online constantly...

So please, if you can just inform us of the situation we could continue. Otherwise the Day5 will easily become a sham if no one knows when it starts or ends...

In the worst case someone comes and reveals something as happened a few games ago as there was a similar kind of (not the same) confusion around...

EDIT: X'd with Sauce... yes go on... fill in the narration afterwards. With the quality you produce them rest assured we will read them later anyhow - and to get some hints as well...

Yes, sorry about that, but this confounded device is pretty difficult to use for this sort of thing (although I am getting the hang of it), and I didn't even know whether I would be able to post with it before I posted above.

Computer doesn't look good so I will probably have to use this thing while at home for the forseeable future.

Day 5 will finish at 12.15am BST tomorrow. If I can't post straight away then, please stop talking and voting at that time. And if anyone is around near the end when all the votes have been cast, it would be helpful if you could post them as it will be difficult for me to count them up on this thing.

Apologies for the inconvenience, but I'm pretty hacked off myself with my computer at the moment.

The computers... so nice to make all this possible but then again so darn malfunctioning at the hour they're needed!

So the latest from me and Lommy. After a lot of to and fro we're going to make a trip to our summer cottage with Lommy's sis. We will be away something like two days. In gametime that means from the halfway of this Day to the latter part of the nextDay.

So we will be voting toDay somewhat early and if alive / the game is on, also posting & voting toMorrow (but at the later stages of the Day) as we have no internet-access there.

Well, the computer seems to have calmed down overnight and, with a little help from AOL, I am back on-line.

Apologies to one and all for the chaos and the confusion last Night. Had I not had my Blackberry to hand I would have had no way of getting on-line at all, so thank goodness for that at least.

I have added in the lists of the living and the dead to the start of Day 5, but have decided not to change the narrative. Sorry, Aganzir, that your death was not addressed in more detail.

Day 5 will, as explained above, finish 24 hours after it started - at 12.15am BST.

No problem with that, Sauce. It's enough to know that I died.

Volo is away, and doesn't have a chance to get online anymore toDay. So he asked me if I could post his vote. Is it ok?

We'll be back to a 11.30pm start for Day 6, if that's OK with everyone.
