Count me in the wonderful games dear.

Though, I am a bit at lost at what to be. Last time I was an Empirical Philosopher, and that worked beautifully. Hmmm... Well, since I'm sort of a Thomas More at times (you can't catch me Henry if I don't say anything!

) I think I will be a laywer. But... then again, I can mix it with Psychologist and be extremely happy.

There. That's what I'll do.

Moreish Pavlovian Psychologist

(Hint: Pavlov's study on Dogs...)

Personally, If I had to go to someone like that for treatment, it would be horror...

Well, there it is. Hope this will be as great as the last one I partook in.

But is there really any difference between, say John Locke or La Mettrie, and a pavlovian psychologist? So not really altering your role anyways?

Which brought me a thought of being myself a post-structuralist musician, having a maxim of "there's nothing behind the score, just notes being notes" - and you can think how that sounds!

Eonwe · 02-25-2006, 07:05 PM

I wouln't mind playing in this one. If you're still open that is. I'll be gold miner: lives in a little, sort of unkept shack, has one of those long trough things, and a great bushy beard. You know the type.

(And, of course, I hardly ever find gold, and spend it instantly on whiskey, when I do...)

PS. If anyone hasn't played, or has played only a couple times, feal free to replace me, as I would feel kind of selfish.

Gil-Galad · 02-25-2006, 07:06 PM

I'll be the friendly Bell-ringer of the town, i ring bells and such

oooh i just had an idea.... glirdy PM me when you see this then i'll PM you my idea

JennyHallu · 02-25-2006, 08:52 PM

Not the scientist! Oh wait...

I'm thinking sci-fi films. Then the sexy female scientist has to survive in order to rub in the "I told you so" at the end of the film...

Just a second...must go consult with someone who has actually seen more horror movies than just Gremlins and the Sixth Sense (both gave me nightmares--figured i'd better quit while I was ahead.)

Can I be the female lead? She doesn't die...

Must think...

Think, think, think...

Oh bother.

I'm going to be the friendly neighborhood nutcase waving a doomsday sign around.

Oh...and Ka....

DING!

Valier · 02-25-2006, 10:05 PM

So Sleepy what have you decided on for the location? Also not to prod....ok well maybe a little...Is there to be retractable votes and/or double lynching?

Ok I shall be either:
HORROR TOWN: (my preference) I shall be Lady Valier whose into hurting people.

COOLSVILLE: uuummm I guess village Idiot

I know but damn me if Duchess doesn't sound better besides our dear Lady is going to find herself far away from home at the start of all things as is everyone else. I must warn you now my villagers, pay to heed to every single word I say for I plan to keep my WWJ different from the others. In what way? Well I plan to keep it so that most posts I make will affect the game in some way.

dun dun dun

sleepy doing work

what will happen next? who actually made the pyramids?

was it the Babylonians? The Phantom? The Canaanites?

tune in at eleven!

i kid of course Sleepy, how many do you plan for?

Valier · 02-26-2006, 01:08 AM

So will it be a surprise Sleepy about the roles and rules? Will you leave us in suspense till the game starts?

Well the first two will definately affect the game in some way but after that it all depends on how the game plays out. I won't be dropping off any hints but if you look closely enough you may just find something you could use to your advantage.

Gentlemen, ladies... Good luck, you're going to need it.

Speaking of which I was wondering how people would take this idea-

Two wolves in the start, at any night of the game the wolves may choose to turn another villager to their cause. This could be used as a wild card by the wolves and add to the randomness factor.

Otherwsie it'd be a normal game with-

3 Wolves
1 Ranger
1 Seer
1 Hunter
Pack of victims

And the rules,
Retraceable Votes
One vote per person per day
No double lynchings, in case of a tie I'll flip a coin (Even though it'd be easier to go with the first voted but bah!)

Valier · 02-26-2006, 01:41 AM

That sounds cool Sleepy! I'm "down" with that. That's an interesting twist!

Valesse · 02-26-2006, 02:05 AM

You twisted my arm, I'll play! I'll play!

I might not have all the time in the world, but I'm sure this go will be just as intoxicating as the last round I was in. This Call of the Wild card (

) business is a bit different, but whatever works for y'all will work for me.

Naria · 02-26-2006, 02:26 AM

Well Valesse would make 12! Waiting on one more... Sleepy, having 2 wolves to start and recruiting another sounds great!! This should prove to be a fun and interesting game....can't wait to start.

Anguirel · 02-26-2006, 02:30 AM

I'd prefer a simple Cursed Villager and three wolves really. This Call of the Wild business seems a bit too powerful...

*shrug* So far the general populace has been in favor of it but I don't plan on using a Cursed Villager, it'd be a blatant advantage for the wolves. The Call of the Wild (I hate you for this Valesse... >_>) however is a wild card. If used on the wrong person it could back-fire on the wolves. If the wolves use it on a special role they won't be changed and yea... they'd have wasted it and not killed anyone so it could help the villagers as well. The Cursed Villager however is in no way good for the village.

Anguirel · 02-26-2006, 02:41 AM

Oh, I didn't realise Gifteds could shrug it off. That's alright I suppose.

JennyHallu · 02-26-2006, 08:55 AM

Hmm...interesting...it sounds like...

*sings*

The End of the World as we know it!

Valier · 02-26-2006, 12:24 PM
