Well as long as you think you can post enough, it's ok...

Groin Redbeard · 04-27-2009, 01:11 PM

This looks like fun and since school is slowing down I feel like it's time to play a game of WW again.

Count me in Lommy, please!

We get to be bad guys? What fun! I'll be the Variag Warlord of Khand. I can even be in a state of war with that evil independent Haradrim King, Legate!

Ha! Good, I'm all for it. (Interesting enough, the other option I pondered was also a Variag of Khand. But it does not surprise me at all that you took such a role, Groin

)

Thinlómien · 04-27-2009, 01:27 PM

Are you two going to spread your boyish fights to my ww game? Oh my...

Anyway, glad to see you signing up, Groin!

Your occupation is fine.

Mira sad.

Lhunardawen · 04-27-2009, 09:27 PM

I can't think of any role for myself, so I'm open to marriage proposals.

Shasta-and-Nerwen needs some competition.

Brinniel · 04-28-2009, 12:08 AM

Hmm...I'm debating whether I should join. If I'm still alive by May 7, I can promise little to no participation that day since I'm moving to NYC. I still haven't figured out my housing situation yet, which does make a difference on whether I will have internet or not for the first several days. I probably will, but no guarantees.

Put me down with a question mark. But just to warn everyone, if I do play, I can promise that with a deadline at 4pm I probably won't be around for the second half of the Day most of the time since I have school then an internship (and hopefully another job).

Don't be sad...you're going to England! [insert jealous smiley] Sometimes it's worth missing a WW game for something else, believe it or not.

Thinlómien · 04-28-2009, 02:50 AM

Alright. Brinn, I'll add you with a questionmark and remove you, Mira, from the list. Have a nice trip!

satansaloser2005 · 04-28-2009, 08:09 AM

Alas, is it really worth it to play without Mira?

Have a great trip, dearie!

Lommie, any idea when we're going to start? Just so I can give a final yay or nay (Yes, I use 'yay', deal with it hehe) as to whether I'm playing?

Currently, I'm thinking that starting the Night1 on BD birthday, so May 1st, would be rather cool.

I'd still like a player or two because it would be cool but we have enough people now.

Anyone having loud protests about the planned deadline (8 PM GMT)?

Anyone wishing to play without the ranger and/or hunter?

Rune Son of Bjarne · 04-28-2009, 02:13 PM

Since no protest have been made I think you can assume that the majority is pro deadline and game consept.

You know I would marry you if I got the chance, but alas! I am also having problems with my role.

The King of the Sea and I need a crew.

It's a good life in the Corsairs of Umbar, Rune– looting, pillaging, drinking yourself unconscious on rum with a saucy wench on each knee... bawling well-known shanties like "High Umbar" and "Fifteen Men on a Dead Dwarf's Chest"... scurvy... the lash... keelhauling...

...Er... well, maybe it's not so good. But we have a great retirement plan!

Worry not, it seems there is no need for us to become enemies (just yet). How fortunate for ye; us Haradians are not ones to trifle with: living amidst the sand taught us to fight in much subtler ways. (What sayest thou, Al-Shuqqaqu?)

I'm officially in, though participation may be a bit sparse at times and I'll warn you all in advance that I may be a bit....well, more nutty than usual. Is that possible?

Nilp, I think I know who your special friend is.

Yeah, Izzy is playing.

Oh, wait . . .

(Vzv, if by tomorrow my colleague doesn't show up, drop her slot. Methinks she's too busy.)

satansaloser2005 · 05-05-2009, 02:26 PM

Oh my gosh I am SO sorry! I got delayed at the doctor's because he had an emergency so I just got back.

*shuts up*

Thinlómien · 05-05-2009, 02:55 PM

The voting result was a tie between Eomer and Eönwë, and my dice decided to kill Eomer. (So, the grudge that features in the narration was purely for narrational purposes...

)

And as for Groin, I'm preparing to kill him off. I'm giving him one more chance - if he appears toMorrow and posts actively, he may stay. If he doesn't appear or just writes a few oneliners, he will be killed along with the lynch victim.

Thinlómien · 05-06-2009, 02:10 PM

Ick, sorry for missing the deadline again. I know you guys don't probably mind that much but I'm annoyed... I think I fixed my computer clock but I was distracted by a phone call and my browser was being sloow... so that's my excuse this time. However, I have to say one thing: I'm going to be hypocritical - so even if I (I hope I won't, but looks like I'm good at it) miss a DL again, you have no right to do so, a vote posted a minute after the DL does not count even if the mod is late as well.

And then another thing... Shasta PMed me and requested to be modkilled... he's had some problems with his net access. However, his wording as for whether it's a definite no-play or not was a bit unclear to me, so I'm waiting until I get a confirmation from him that he really wants to die, or until he's been away for more than two Days and then killing him off. So, you can keep that in mind while talking/thinking about him.

Thinlómien · 05-06-2009, 05:26 PM

Taking back what I said about Shasta... he may be still onboard after all. Hopefully we'll all see soon, I'll keep you informed.

Eönwë · 04-28-2009, 05:09 PM

I would like to play, but it depends on when the start date is.

Kent2010 · 04-29-2009, 09:07 AM

9pm GMT will be more convenient, but as long as it's not earlier than 8 pm the deadline will work for me.

Nienna · 04-29-2009, 09:33 AM

*looks meek*

can I be a pirate too?

Of course. All are welcome in our kingdom, provided you have your own ship.

...you do have your own ship, don't you? If not, I'm afraid the highest position we're offering is that of cabin boy/girl.

Lol.

But no cabin girls in this game, the somewhat questionable Lady Lómiel Starbrow wouldn't have invited anyone not important to her secret council... *is back off to write the first narrations*

I've updated everybody's occupations. Those who don't have any should submit their to me before Night1 or I will make them up.

As a sidenote, Night1 is to begin in 32 hours. (Yes, I'm going to keep 8pm GMT because that's 11pm for me and even an hour later would be too late.

) So we're starting soon! I will try to put the game thread up before the start of Night1, but it will be there 8pm GMT tomorrow at the latest...

Last minute sign ups are still welcome, and I need a confirmation of participation from Eönwë and Brinn and Nilp's mystery colleague.
