Concerning the timing of the games

Just a short notice.

This far it's been declared that both Rikae and Mac will be away from mid-March a "couple of weeks" (two that is?) on.

Also Brinn has said she can't join until May.

So how about we set ourselves a goal of having a Dueling Wizards Werewolf game in the beginning of May?

Before that we have apt time to make two or three games depending on how fast they get enrolled and how long they last.

Do other people have different preferences? With a DW game we'd need a pretty large village (last time it was 30 but I quess we could do with a slightly smaller one as well... but not with one under 20) and so it would be good to know when people are having restrictions in taking part.

But I quess this discussion could be continued in the DW suggestion -thread so as not to interfere with the discussion here about the more immediate games.

Well, Nogrod has PMed me to ask and see if I want to mod the next game... and I do. However, I'm going to need a co-mod as I'm back in University and I may not always be around at the deadline.

So, if anyone would like to co-mod with me, I'll start preparing everything asap.

Tehee! Double-post. Sorry folks.

I should also mention that I will be away from Feb. 16-26th. I should have Internet at the hotel, but you know how those things work. I believe there's still time for a small game (and I'm looking for 15 players tops) but I'd still need a co-mod to make sure that everything can be played out properly if the game takes longer and I'm found without Interweb.

What type of game would it be? Something wacky, or a more traditional werewolf game?

It would sure be the most safe if you'd have an actual co-mod named already when the game begins but if you could handle the first one or two days I quess you could count on someone of the first drop-outs to become your co-mod. I myself would like more to play as I've modded quite recently. But as I've been lynched three times in a row on Day1 so you could count on me if I'm going to continue this sad trend...

Have you tried to PM anyone about it Farael? I'd guess it's easier to find a co-mod that way...

I guess most of the people are looking forwards to a few more traditional games right now but in the end it's always the mod who decides these things...

That would be excellent. Personally I'd prefer if the game didn't start until after May 8, which is when I'll be back in the US with a lot more time on my hands. But if it did happen to start earlier, I'm sure I could use an internet cafe somewhere in London...

Right in the middle of exams, what a plan. Though to be fair, mid to end May would be fine.

OOOh, Dueling Wizards. That's such a fun variation, and I'd love to play.

Mid-May works for me.

Shoot! That's finals week for me too, and then I lose my internet when I move out of my college room. Alas, it was not meant to be.



Oh, and ditto Cabbie. I'm in for your game too, Farael.

Well, I just don't know who to PM... I haven't been active enough lately and I have not really been keeping in touch with my friends here. I'll wait for a bit and if no-one volunteers (anyone, really, whether old friend or friend to be ) I'll see whom I can snag... err I mean convince.

As to what kind of a game it will be, it'll be straight forward

If we get 15 players:
Three Wolves
One Seer
One Ranger.


If we get 12 players
Two wolves
One Ranger.

In either case, wolves PM at night, no-one PMs during the day

I should be available for co-modding around that time, Farael. If you can't get anyone else, I'll do it.
