Really! This is without doubt the longest delay that I've seen between games.

Shame on all you lot for letting RL intrude upon WW!

Actually...I think for once, it's the RPGing that is interfereing with WW, instead of the other way around. Haha. RL is getting in the way, too, technically, but lots of people are role-playing. That's awesome.

If I may suggest something, Foley, have you considered adapting your design somehow to make it work with fewer players (say, a village of twelve with three wolves)? I honestly don't think waiting much longer will do much good. WW is a time-extensive matter (if not more than RPGs then certainly in a different way), at least if you're one of the louder players, and people's schedules tend to change over an interval of more than two or three weeks. You won't want to risk more people having to drop out.

Any word on the status of this? Are we still just waiting for people to be available to play?

Ozban · 04-18-2011, 02:16 PM

Query: Are we gonna start anytime soon? By the half of May I will have my exams coming up and I will be unavailable for, say next two months.

If there's any possibility of beginning anytime soon, please, let's do so. This unexpected break seems too long already.

To counter Oz's rush, I now will be unable to play (or at least participate on a level that I feel comfortable with) for the next week and a half. If we start before the 28th I'll play, but I'd love to not get mod-killed (or lynched because I'm not around, for that matter).

Foley, who all have you asked about this? I may try to drum up some business.

Folwren · 04-19-2011, 07:33 AM

Some time ago, towards the beginning of the time I put up this thread, I asked...gosh, I asked all sorts of people. Let's see...
Rikae, Mac, Anguirel, Phantom, Lommy, Greenie, Nogrod, (some of whom are on the list, I think), um........Durelin, Shasta....

I went to the last several WW games to see who has been playing recently, and I'm pretty sure I sent all of them PMs. I think I wrote at least 15 or so, about. I can't remember all the names.

Some may be available again. A lot were busy because they'd joined an RPG and they didn't want to do both a WW game and an RPG at the same time. That game is still going.

If you could drum up some business, that'd be amazing.

And I am sorry for not responding earlier to Inzil and Pitchwife. Inzil, we are indeed waiting for people to become available to play.

And Pitchwife...I really don't see how I could change the rules more than I have to require fewer players. The nature of the game is such that fewer than 15 players would be...well...boring.

But it is true, I need to start this, because before too long, even I will not be available.
