Yay Skip! There will be a fuller set of rules on the game thread, but yes perhaps looking back at past games would help alot. If you've played live WW before you should be fine.

So....since everyone wants him so bad....and since Legate did ask first....

Mad Hatter - Glirdan
Cheshire Cat - Nogrod
Tweedledee
Tweedledum - wintywinty
The Caterpillar - Boro88
White Rabbit - Izzy
March Hare - Mira
The Dormouse - Sally
Humpty Dumpty - Skip
Queen of Hearts - Aganzir
King of Hearts - Inziladun
Knave of Hearts - Shasta
Duchess - Lottie
The Dodo - Nerwen
Jabberwocky - Legate
The Gryphon
The Mock Turtle - Morsul
White Knight
White Queen - Nienna
Red Queen - Fea


Wow, I love how quickly this filled up.

Ok great and thanks for the welcome. Yes, I played live ww a couple of times this summer so I'm familiar with the basic rules but the twists and gameplay not so much. But it'll be fine I guess.

I'm Humpty Dumpty then. Let's see if I can dig out my old copy of Lewis Caroll from wherever it may be...

I think this is the highest number of players I've seen since Wilwa's last game.

Wilwa clearly hits the nerve...


So we only need Tweedledee to begin? Wow!

Haha, clearly I'm awesome.

Yeah, 1 more, but if no one shows up we can still start. Maybe start tomorrow. We'll see.

Why Stick Wasn't Here for Deadline:

First, we had to go shopping to pick Nienna up some Old Navy flippity floppities. And then, well, we shoe shopped. And looked at puppies. And ferrets. And then got Coolatas from Dunkin. And otherwise were fabulous.

And then I made Stick accompany me to a gallery opening. We looked most excellent.

And then, after running through the rain in very tall stiletto heels, and then eating, we had a fabulously awesome photo shoot of amazing.

And then realized that ZOMG Stick had forgotten to go to work!

And then her boss (for Lari and Ni, we're talking M, not L or P (we luvs P)) decided to be a heinous Sauron-emulator, and there was an awful lot of "Oh no you di'n't!" and "Oh my gahd, did she just?! Oh my gahd, I can't believe she said that!" and "What a [expletive deleted]!". Not because we don't respect authority, but because we don't respect HER.

So then we realized deadline had come and gone, and I was dead, and Stick apologizes.

The end.

Technical question -

if we have 20 players, wouldn't it be fair to add a fourth wolf?

Yes, yes it would. That's what I had in my last game (along with cursed and cobbler) and it worked out fairly. I hadn't thought I'd get this many players, so I hadn't really considered it. haha

I will add another wolf.

So we're at 19 now right? K, well if 1 more person shows up that'll be cool, but either way we're good to go for tomorrow.
