Well, Glirdy and I would like to Mod together, but he just just modded so we'd have to wait for a while (and we don't have any details worked out), but eventually we will be interested. And we're aiming for epicness.

Well for the most part I've got the premise down and the roles will pretty standard (normal wolves, and at least normal seer and ranger). But I'm planning on doing something similar to what you did with the Grimm Tales, and just take a few LOTR characters to have some kind of minor role. (Only not as many).

Like I really want Bill Ferney and Harry Goatleaf as cobblers (and add a bit more than just normal cobblers). As well as a Butterbur who is on the innocents side, and if killed by the wolves, his ale is so deliciously tasty, the wolves are unable to transform and make a kill the next night.

Plus possibly a few others, I just don't want to have it be completely out of balance also, if I were to do it after Lommy's game I would probably need a co-mod.

Ahem. I'd said a while back that I'd like to be in the mod queue again.

That being said, I'd like to put myself last on whatever queue we may line up in the next few days, as my game is going to take loads of preparation and my internets have been rather shoddy of late anyway.

I might also be willing to give modding a shot one day.

I've been modding a few games during the years so I'm in no great hurry as long as there are players who haven't yet modded or who have modded only once or a long-long time ago... But just to inform you: maybe once again I could take the job.

Boro
Wilwa and myself
Nog
Shasta

So, who's going to go after Lommykins?

After sorting out things with a few open ears yesterday, I'm ready to go with a game, and have modded one so far, back in December. If anyone hasn't modded a game yet (who can and has one ready), go ahead after Lommy. If not, I'm ready to do another one.

Obviously since I just finished a game, I shouldn't even raise my hand, but I've had a game of my own in mind since before Ni recruited me to be the face and illustrator of her game.

It's experimental in nature, but with a very simple premise. Just wolves, villagers, and a seer, with possibly another role or two to keep it balanced based on the experimental part. I'm in no big hurry, but I would definitely like to mod my own premise some time in the not horribly distant future.

Heh... well, it's quite a unique game. We've had two so far I think, one by lmp and one by me, and I think the next one doing it should be a different person just to spread that fun. Although anyone considering of doing it should be aware beforehand that it is actually quite time-consuming and requires the mod to be able to hold quite a web of threads together... so it's not the simplest of tasks.

But it's been some time the last Dueling Wizards was played and we have I think a host of players now active that haver never had a chance to play it, so why not in some not so distant future once again?

To those who have never checked the marvellous concept of Dueling Wizards, here's the last one (it has the participant list and full rules after the prologue post).

I'm quite ready to mod a conventional kind of game or a more experimental one, whatever the general feeling is that people wish to play when it comes to my turn.

Throwing this out there, if we have no one to mod after Boro has gone, perhaps Wilwa and I should start working out the details now as a "just en cas" scenario.

I know with the new rules and regulations that we have all come to agree upon that I should not be going, but I will not be having full control of the game.

It's up to you guys.
