This list is really making me

Mith - I do understand about the pressure but even if you play in a semi-detached way, it would be better than not at all, wouldn't it?

Greenie - so pleased you're playing, is Lommy *sure* she can't? What about Nogs?

Might be... if this starts sooner than later. I have a huge choir-dance project starting at August 4th and then the schools start again. But if I can count on you to kill me before that I'm game!

So put me in with a questionmark Glirdy! Quick-start and I'm in, prolonged recruitment and I'm out.

If at all possible don't start before Sunday, pour favor. I won't be anywhere near a workable, accessible computer 'til late Monday.

Thinlómien · 07-23-2010, 11:16 AM

Greenie! You just made me sound so mean!

And Lalaith, yes, I'm sure I can't play.

It just means you have to play again in the near future...

I'm thinking of just leaving that rule to the Lovers and Lovers only. I agree with false reveals as is, but to do so and pull it off in this game will be very interesting to see

I'm going to assume that means you're in :P

As for the start date, I'm going to respect Boro's wish and have our Night 1 on Sunday, thus making Monday our Day 1. Nog, is this alright with you or will you have to withdraw?

As for the deadline....I am thinking roughly around 2am Eastern Standard. If there is any conflict with this let me know. As it stands right now, we have all the people we need to play....

HOWEVER.

I am MORE than willing to let more people play if they so choose to join!! It will make things a little more difficult on my end and may mean that the game will last longer, but I figure, why not have a few ordo's with no special abilities!?

So, if there are any others that would wish to sign up, you have about 33 hours until the sing up is closed and the opening narration will be put up!! Thanks to everyone who is currently signed up!! I'm really pumped to get this show under way!!

Zeus– King of the Gods – Lovers with Hera, who will be allowed to PM during Night Phase only. If Hera is lynched during the Day, Zeus will take a revenge kill. If she is Night Killed, Zeus will PM me one name at the start of the Day and will have the power to either kill them, protect them, see their role or have an extra vote (which they may send to me) for that Day. **

Hera - Queen of the Gods – Lovers with Zeus AND is also a Wolf. Zeus and Hera will be allowed to PM during Night Phase only. If Zeus is lynched during the Day, Hera will NOT take a revenge kill. If he is Night Killed, Hera will PM me one name at the start of the Day and will have the power to either kill them, see their role or have an extra vote (which they may send to me) for that Day. **

Uhm, just realised that this doesn't make sense. Since Hera (being a wolf) can't be Night killed (unless you mean by a hunter or something) and Zeus is highly unlikely to be aslong as Hera is alive. Perhaps they should get their revenge-name thing if they are lynched instead?

And about the Mytho, what happens if they choose a Lover or one of the protector people (Athena for example), I'm assuming nothing?

And when the false seer dies will we know they were the false one, or will that be something we don't know til the end?

And are there no ordos at all? Cooooooooool.

K. I'm done I think.

*huggles Mod* Sorry if some of these things were dealt with already.

Point 1 - Changed to lynch

Point 2 - You are correct in assuming nothing. Mytho will only be granted a role if he/she chooses The Seer, Ranger, Hunter, Sherrif or a Wolf.

Point 3 - I was thinking of keeping it a secret because I'm mean like that

Point 4 - *Huggles his bestie and gives cookie*

Oi, I already went there. Insert two quarters and try again.

That late of a DL? Please say it ain't so, love. It's horrid for me.

Kath · 07-23-2010, 06:24 PM

2am EST = 7am my time? No problem but be aware I'll be voting pretty early with that deadline, like 11pm my time.

Glirdan · 07-23-2010, 06:28 PM

Hmmm....Well, I COULD try and change it to 11 pm or 12 am instead to try and accommodate but, those are really inconvenient times for me as well, but I COULD probably make it for those times.

Kath · 07-23-2010, 06:33 PM

No don't worry about it.

Having to vote early makes me more likely to remember to! And if anything moving the DL to later works better for me.

I love you? Also, I did make your icon. That's gotta be worth something.

Technically I can do that DL but I know I'll want to stay up late to watch the game. So....yeah. I'm a naughty girl.

Point 1- cool

Point 2 - cool

Point 3 - haha, cool, and I would do the same. Our friendship makes sense.

Loslote · 07-23-2010, 11:53 PM

Deadline is perfect for me as is, but then, I'm insanely flexible, and can probaly make almost anything work.

the phantom · 07-24-2010, 12:03 AM

I'm a huge fan of the deadline being 1-3 AM EST, so the proposed 2 AM EST deadline is absolutely fine with me.

I also had an extremely important question that I thought of earlier this evening when I was away from home, and now I can't remember it. *slaps head* I really hope I remember, because I seem to recall thinking that, if the answer went a certain direction, it would literally change the entire game. My excuse for not being able to remember something so huge? I'm tired. Very very tired.

Folwren · 07-24-2010, 07:44 AM

This is pretty exciting. I was hoping that Nogrod and Lommy could both play, but it's cool that Greenie got aboard. Nog, I'd love it if you could play.

So....I take it we're beginning later today? Sounds cool. This could be very interesting. I'm kind of intimidated.

satansaloser2005 · 07-24-2010, 07:53 AM

*bounces* I concur. I'm all up for starting!

Inziladun · 07-24-2010, 08:01 AM

Any DL after midnight EDT is going to mean me voting a few hours before, but it's not a big deal.

What Kath said. Though because I'm on holiday I'll be up 'til later.

the phantom · 07-24-2010, 11:04 AM

Just so I'm perfectly clear here- who is allowed to reveal? No one?

No uncloaking, Phantom, dear. Just so that's perfectly clear.

I'll second his question though.

Glirdan · 07-24-2010, 12:25 PM

Just so we're perfrectly clear: Lovers are the only ones who are NOT allowed to reveal their true role (at least that's all I can see after being awake for about five minutes

). False revealments will be allowed....maybe...I don't know right at this current moment.

ALSO. I totally forgot about this earlier. THERE WILL BE NO DOUBLE LYNCHES WHATSOEVER. If there is a tie, it will be the last person to have recieved the vote (and yes, I will accept a vote at the DL).

the phantom · 07-24-2010, 12:48 PM

So everyone can reveal aside from the lovers? All right then- supposing on the first day I pipe up and say, "Everyone reveal who you are." Everyone aside from the lovers reveals. Bang, we instantly know who three wolves and their three lovers are, not to mention that Ares would have no choice but to reveal as a role filled by someone else, meaning that we would have our choice in Ares narrowed down to two individuals.

The only way to avoid this would be for all three lover-wolves and their lovers to reveal as other roles, but again that would still narrow our choices down considerably, and perhaps based upon gender and logical pairings etc we could make a better than 50/50 guess at who was lying.

And of course everyone with an uncontested role would be entirely trusted at that point, and know better how to use their gifts. Is my scenario ignoring some obvious fact? I haven't had very much time to examine the mechanics or village make-up, so possibly I'm way off base?

satansaloser2005 · 07-24-2010, 12:51 PM

Yup, Phantom's back.

Glirdan · 07-24-2010, 02:21 PM

He definitely is....

In other words, I'm not even going to touch that one.

EDIT: Group consensus say 2am EST, so that is what it shall be!

That means if there are any last minute singups, do it now as you have 9 hours before opening narration goes up and Night 1 begins!

By true role do you mean Lover, or does it also include Wolf if they are one?

Glirdan · 07-24-2010, 03:46 PM

Lover and Wolf. And as phantom so nicely put it, obviously this SHOULD apply to everyone. However, if someone reveals or false reveals, I'm not stopping it. Makes it more fun!

EDIT: Also forgot to mention the, Sherrif's are also NOT ALLOWED to reveal. Okay, I think we're covered

Glirdan · 07-24-2010, 04:53 PM

Just a quick note:

I will be sending you your roles within the next few hours so keep an eye out and please keep your inbox empty! So, when I said 2am for signups, I lied. Oops, I forgot that I had to send you all your roles.

Second note, even though you are all veterans, I'll make a reminder: please put yourself to invisible between now and the next 7 hours.

Third note: I may be a TEENSY bit late with the opening narrations. However, seeing as it IS Night 1 and there will be no deaths, I will NOT extend the Night 1.

Now, due to the fact that I will be sending you your roles....

THIS THREAD IS NOW OFFICIALLY CLOSED FOR SIGNUPS

This thread will now only be used for those playing in the game and myself. Please notify everyone here of any absenteeism and RL type discussions. Also, if you need any clarification on any roles or rules or have any questions, please SEND ME A MESSAGE. Due to the fact that everyone has a role in this game, I would like to make things less obvious for people when there are role clarifications (also thus eliminating a bit of meta-reasoning from the game). Good luck to all players!
