I believe Lottie just said she'd reward us for a filibuster.

This is just the scenario I had in mind when I designed the first Mandos game: the dead know several wolves and are desperate to get that info to the living.
I anticipated that it would be very frustrating for them, and very entertaining for me as the mod.





Anyway, Lottie's packmates are probably all dead or revealed, but I say we take her up on it so we can have more music & comedy (sports are optional).

Presumably! But wouldn't it be nice to know for sure?

It did take the Living five hours to get from the top of page 17 to the top of page 18 in their thread...

I had originally set our goal at 1000 posts, but I decided that just wasn't fair to the Living, the poor dears.

Now Boro has a day off so we may need to hurry though! We have (after this) 40 to go, they 42.

Well, I'm glad Mith jumped out and suggested they get their rears in gear this time in terms of making a voting list.

But again- I'm worried they won't remember that they can ask us about the Living seeing as we have Nerwen here. Now technically we should be able to trust them to figure it out, but they haven't proven trustworthy. Nerwen- you probably should've said "I will dream of X and Y. You WILL ask the Dead about them tomorrow if I'm not here. You WILL make your voting list nice & early. You WILL NOT hold your vote until the final hour!"

We must treat children as children, yes?

++Nerwen Filibuster

Perhaps if the Living see our post count going crazy and see that it's always Nerwen posting they'll think to themselves, "Ooo, perhaps she has something to say?"

On the other hand, if they were around I would expect to see more posting.

I'm currently reading the Rain Wilds Chronicles by Robin Hobb. Good stuff.

Jurassic World is coming out in three days. I haven't been so excited since...the time Jurassic Park came out in 3D a couple years ago.

I loved Mad Max: Fury Road! I suppose quoting it might have counted as a ranger/lover hint to those who have seen it - after all I cultivated Warboy references. I live, I die, I live again! (Then again, spraying mouth with silver paint was also appropriate for a hunter out to get some wolves - I may have mentioned to Kuru that while my preferred weapon is bow & arrows, I also like biting and clawing.)

As to books, Jack Glass by Adam Roberts was brilliant.

Who is responsible for these murders? Probably Rodney the Hamster.

No, never mind, it's Form and Morm.

This is what Form is.

Morm is equally creepy.

Watched these at work. Shouldn't have. Burst out laughing at Form. Hey Tweedleform - whenever you read this - is that how you and Nienna got together?
