I can't think of any role for myself, so I'm open to marriage proposals.
Shasta-and-Nerwen needs some competition. |

Hmm...I'm debating whether I should join. If I'm still alive by May 7, I can promise little to no participation that day since I'm moving to NYC. I still haven't figured out my housing situation yet, which does make a difference on whether I will have internet or not for the first several days. I probably will, but no guarantees.
Put me down with a question mark. But just to warn everyone, if I do play, I can promise that with a deadline at 4pm I probably won't be around for the second half of the Day most of the time since I have school then an internship (and hopefully another job). Quote:

Alright. Brinn, I'll add you with a questionmark and remove you, Mira, from the list. Have a nice trip!

Alas, is it really worth it to play without Mira?
Have a great trip, dearie! Lommie, any idea when we're going to start? Just so I can give a final yay or nay (Yes, I use 'yay', deal with it hehe) as to whether I'm playing?

You know I would marry you if I got the chance, but alas! I am also having problems with my role.

I'd still like a player or two because it would be cool but we have enough people now. Anyone having loud protests about the planned deadline (8 PM GMT)? Anyone wishing to play without the ranger and/or hunter?

Since no protest have been made I think you can assume that the majority is pro deadline and game consept.

Well, I was assuming that, but I was just asking anyway.

I would like to play, but it depends on when the start date is.

Ooh the plot thickens! Can I be the evil Variag warlord who storms the castle and steals the bride of my dreams. Ah just think of it: nothing but Lhuna, myself and the camels!

I'm officially in, though participation may be a bit sparse at times and I'll warn you all in advance that I may be a bit....well, more nutty than usual. Is that possible?
Nilp, I think I know who your special friend is.

Bloody hell, even on the interwebs, Lhuna has many dagas!
Yeah, Izzy is playing. Oh, wait . . . (Vzv, if by tomorrow my colleague doesn't show up, drop her slot. Methinks she's too busy.)

Worry not, it seems there is no need for us to become enemies (just yet). How fortunate for ye; us Haradians are not ones to trifle with: living amidst the sand taught us to fight in much subtler ways. (What sayest thou, Al-Shuqqaqu?)

I need to stop checking the thread before I'm all the way awake. That is all. And no, Nilpie, I didn't mean Izzy. You know very well who I'm speaking of.

9pm GMT will be more convenient, but as long as it's not earlier than 8 pm the deadline will work for me.

Of course. All are welcome in our kingdom, provided you have your own ship.
...you do have your own ship, don't you? If not, I'm afraid the highest position we're offering is that of cabin boy/girl.

I've updated everybody's occupations. Those who don't have any should submit their to me before Night1 or I will make them up. As a sidenote, Night1 is to begin in 32 hours. (Yes, I'm going to keep 8pm GMT because that's 11pm for me and even an hour later would be too late. ) So we're starting soon! I will try to put the game thread up before the start of Night1, but it will be there 8pm GMT tomorrow at the latest... Last minute sign ups are still welcome, and I need a confirmation of participation from Eönwë and Brinn and Nilp's mystery colleague.

I removed Eönwë's questionmark... now I only need to hear from Brinn. I'd love it if she can play, not only because I like her , but also because then I'd feel safer adding a fourth ringwraith. But of course, there may (although unlikely) be new sign ups or something... and anyway, we have 16 players at least so we will have four wolves.... I mean ringwraiths.

Incidentally, I'm disgusted by all this pirate nonsense. How people could make a living stealing and pillaging is beyond me! Detestable!
(My mum was a pirate wench, you see. I fully intend to rise from the slums from whence I came, buddy.)

Sign up closed (Brinn's in, btw ).
Everybody should get their roles in 15 minutes. The game and Night1 have begun! See the game thread.

And even though this might be a rather obvious thing, remember to turn invisible.

The Mod is allowed to triple-post...
The Pre-Night1 narration is done now.

Just to let everyone know, this will be a horrible Day 1 for me with regards to participation. I will be on randomly for the next 4 hours or so, though not nearly as much as I'd like, then I will pop on quickly about 6 hours before the end of the Day and vote then.
I can assure you that my Day 2 participation, if I last that long, will be much better. Just bad timing for a Day phase.

Narration's up.
Sorry for taking such a long time to write such a short narration, but I had to write it two times as I managed to delete it just before finishing...

Just to inform everyone, I will be absent for most of Day 2 and will probably just be around for a few hours during the last quarter of the Day. Should anyone need a specific reason, I have to go back to uni and attend to some med school requirements, which could take the whole day.

Sorry about missing the vote (as usual)... I really do have an excuse this time– my connection was down for hours.

A clarification for the narration
The voting result was a tie between Eomer and Eönwë, and my dice decided to kill Eomer. (So, the grudge that features in the narration was purely for narrational purposes... )
And as for Groin, I'm preparing to kill him off. I'm giving him one more chance - if he appears toMorrow and posts actively, he may stay. If he doesn't appear or just writes a few oneliners, he will be killed along with the lynch victim.
