That's correct.

Menel, something similar happened to Foley's game (you were away from the Downs at the time). Couldn't get it started for... ever? But then it finally got enough players in the end and all the cool roles were there.

So don't get discouraged... it's just that everyone leaves around now for Britmoot, and of course they are too busy to play. When they all come back though, in a couple weeks, I'd say it's likely there'll be a wave of willing victims... erm, players, I mean.

Though it's up to you. If you want to mod sooner...

It's just that I was excited to see the new twist to the roles. But if it doesn't work, it just doesn't work.

Whoever's modding the next game is free to use the "two cobblers" variant, so it may still see the light of day. In fact, if you want to mod the next one, G55, it's open.

Anyhow, I still need an occupation, so I'll be a fisherman.

It's always sad to see a game stalling like this...

I have been and just will be too busy to take part at this moment... maybe later when fall comes and things settle down in RL.

I do hope as well that you don't feel disencouraged Menel - and all the new players: this is not how things go "normally". The Brit-Moot takes many people out of the game, the starting of a sememster in some countries explains another piece, etc...

Have a good game and enjoy!

Oftentimes small old-skool games are the best ones!

I was just thinking... I've never been in a game where the Seer is the only role either! So I'm still excited to play in this one, for a different reason.

That still doesn't scratch it that it's a shame to drop the cobblers. But what can we do but to make the most of the time that is given to us?

Roles have been assigned; if you did not get a PM from me, you are an Ordinary Villager.

The game thread will open at the beginning of Night 1, seven hours from now.

Sorry I'm late, overslept. Should have been 2 hours earlier. Anyhow it is now Night 1. Game thread will be up momentarily.
