Nice to see you Rikae - and hope you'll persuade Mac in as well!

Hakon: postponing the DL for one hour means 1AM to me. I'm ready to make it if there are several people who would gain with it. You're counted as number one right now. Let me hear of you others... to whom would 10PM GMT mean a real possibility of taking part at the end of the Day?

2200 GMT would come during my workday, so it would be hit or miss whether I could be around at DL. I could deal with it, though.

I suppose making it an hour hour earlier would not help it?

Maybe we'll allow for some retractables for those who are not sure if they can meet the deadline? Like three in the whole game or something... Thence you could vote earlier and then if you had a chance to come in afterwards you could change it for a limited number of times. (Sure if there are retrackies anyone could use them then... not only those who have problems with the DL.)

And as said earlier: no double-lynches. In a case of a tie the Captain decides...

Also, even if I'm an ardent supporter of modfires with people who don't participate when playing myself, I'd think it against the Ranger-mentality to make any modfires. That's a bunch of battle-hardened ruffians who would rely on each other to hold their posts and if they won't then it's up to the gang to decide...

Although I would suggest that anyone not willing to contribute should not join the game... to be fair to others if for nothing else.

I know I made mention of the fact that, back when Nogrod first announced this game, with a suggestion of what it might be like, that I wanted to play--I even had hopes of managing a mid-September game.

Alas, however, though the awesomeness of the game continues unabated, I am fully underway in my first Graduate semester, and on top of in-house commitments and the academics, I don't feel I can justify playing Werewolf--which makes me very sad. A couple of you might laugh, because I'm online daily... but that's not indicative of time commitments.

However, and this is why I'm bothering to post publicly--this game looks awesome and has my official approbation and seal of spectacularity.

Just so you know.

Oh Nog this sounds sooooo amazing and I'm insanely tempted. But I'm afraid I can't play, my semester is way too busy. Just wanted to let you know that my heart is breaking at having to miss this and I'll probably still be distracted from my schoolwork just to follow the game.
