I've changed my mind, the phantom,but it shouldn't affect the meat of your post in any important way. Still, because I'm that vain, I'd like you to change the name of the course you took to that which is listed below:
Mardil - Approaches to Rulership: Machiavenethor, Wyn Stone Kerkdil, and Plâtrond Compared Alli - Theology of Dollar Llama Sai - Grammar and Diction in Modern Orcish (English) Fléin - Self Defense for Short People Panakeia - Sales and Marketing in a Futile System Valde - Interpretive Drama: Shakespeardil on Mordway Wilhelmina - Old Timers Dizeaze and How to Cope Have at it; create crazy lectures, trippy quizzes, ridiculous professors (don't forget they're all trolls), whatever. I wait to be entertained. |

Oh, and, umm, Panakeia has merely exploited a loophole in the system along with the Orc's laziness about correcting errors. Her escape is entirely legitimate.

Doctor death!
Yes, Alli has finished her surgery.
I decided to kill the character off for several reasons. 1) I was running out of ideas 2) I think people wanted to move on to the next place and 3) I couldn't think of a proper way for Hookbill to escape from Mordor. Have fun with the rest of the game, folks. If there are any diagnosis I have missed, then just assume the nurse saw them and said they had 'not so sever Arctic Heartic'.

I will try to work in some of the course material. Perhaps Mardil can quote "Machiavenethor" during his psych eval.

I had planned on taking Mardil to jail, getting his psych eval there, and then finally putting him on trial. But if you have a use for him just tell me and I'll get him through all that as quickly as possible.

Okay, the guy who be vertically challenged. Panakeia is now Pan Akeia. Just for you.

The official end date for ATM (originally mid-January) was February 7. But a lot of you seem far from finished. Please post up and say the last date that you can be involved in this, and based (in part) on that, I'll post up a new official end date.

By February 16th is best for me, but I can find internet time after if I must.
When does the war begin? And Aimè, we're still good for that last bit of fun, yes? Again, post it where you want it.

Well, I'm off to Iceland on the 10th, but will be back on the 15th, so if it's ok to just stick Sai somewhere for a few days and leave her be then I can pick her up again when I come back.

Kath is "no" from 2/10 to 2/15. Fea is "hard to get online" after 2/16. That's trouble enough. This thing is done on 2/9. Finish it off, folks. I have a secret to blow wide open: there will be an ATM2 some time soon in a BD thread near you, so if you want a continued fix, you'll get your chance. |

I do hope the fact that Valde's war with his parents barely got past the aggressive diplomacy stage is okay. He has a performance to deal with, though it will quickly fall apart, and very soon.
Just how it will...I have no idea. |

Save filled. Who said all store-front psychics are fakes? Well, at least in Mordor, with magic running around loose, who knows, they could be real...
I know we're ending on the 9th (sniffles) but I'm fine indefinitely as well. Always time to write in a fun story.

Right, yes, indeed, and so forth. I've been trying to keep up but things have been slightly unpredictable over here. Just glad I'm not a main player! Another ATM, eh? One day it'll be bigger than Werewolf... In fact, there's an idea for a t-shirt: ATM—bigger than Werewolf I'd better snap up the rights to that!

I should give warning: Please don't take personally any destinies meted out to the Offending Party members. None will die (unless you kill yours); but the points do matter, and, well, how your characters did stuff matters. I'll just leave it a mystery for now...

I intend to make this war part of the greater war twixt evil and good, in short, between A Slan and Anakron. and, just so you all know, parents have sided with A Slan, which means teenagers must fight alongside evil and Anakron.

Before I post, there's an important question. A Slan is on Illamatar's side, correct? Because that will cause problems since Alli is pretty stuck with performing Eru's will.

Nevermind my last post, and BEAUTIFUL defeat of the second werewolf, Eomer.
I'd rep you... but the system annoys me and I can't. Oh, and if you're wondering how my Hunter was able to kill a wolf without dying? Deau ex machina and rule breaking are both in Mordor.

Hmmmmm . . . actually, I think of this as an incredibly well written and inventive RPG which just happens to be in parody style . . .

A summing up so far, and please tell me if I missed something:
The way it looks to me, the following Offending Party members still need to "pass" (or not) the following tests: Mardil - psych eval Alli - psych eval & final exam Wilhelmina - Celebrity Hunt, psych eval, and final exam. Valde - Celebrity Hunt & psych eval. (having taken over for the troll teacher and done a better job, it is considered that Valde has passed his course with flying colors). Tomorrow's the last day. On February 10 I'll write the final post. |

Quick request...
If you guys write some more on the battle, please don't put Kirk onto anyone's side just yet. I have plans for him, if necessary.
