Well, I was hoping for quite a large village, but it seems that we may, at most get a few players. I was thinking of leaving it open for people to sign up for another 36 hours from the time of the DL today, and then starting the game the day after tomorrow at DL. However, please state your preferences (this goes for all of you) as I am willing to change it if enough people want to.

So my work schedule just cleared up, and I'm ahead of where I want as far as writing A Full Moon Over Innsmouth goes... hmm.

Sign me up. I shall be the chief (and only) miner of the village, as well as the head of the miner's guild.

Love it

In fact, I love all of your (plural that is again) professions, I just never got a chance to say so.

Boromir88 · 08-28-2009, 12:57 PM

I'm good with any starting day, as long as the DL doesn't change.

alonariel · 08-28-2009, 03:02 PM

I might be available this weekend so any time after today works for me : )

The Game Thread looks very promising! You're making this a hard one for the wolves, aren't you?

I think this could do with some explanation. Exactly how will it affect the Nightly kills if, say, one wolf of four is Guarded? Does it mean there will be only one kill that Night, same as if there were only three wolves left? And what about Nightly PMing?

Great that you put Form in the narration! That way his spirit will be with us, even though he can't play (sadly).
And I'm all for being in character as much as possible! I love that about the early games, as far as I've read 'em.

Do I need to mention that I'm also beginning to get very curious about those secret/modified roles?

Basically, the wolf is has to act as an ordo for the Night (The seer will still see him/her as a wolf). I can't say anything else for certain yet, because it depends on the number of people playing. And I can't tell you too much anyway.

Eönwë · 08-28-2009, 04:02 PM

Anyone who wishes to play who has not signed up must sign up within the next 36 hours.

Now don't say I didn't warn you...

Eönwë · 09-05-2009, 05:13 AM

If alonariel does not vote toDay, she will be modfired. As stated in the rules, this means that the wolves will only get one kill toNight. Logically, this would mean that whether the person who is guarded toNight is a wolf or not, they will still get their kill (there will be a minimum of 2-3 left).

Sorry again for not being around toward the end of the Day. Computer issues, so I didn't get to catch up much either. Off to do that now, I think.

Eönwë · 09-05-2009, 04:22 PM

A question: How gory am I allowed to make the narrations?
