I do not doubt that... Indeed we (Lommy & I) joked yesterday about the certainty that you would comment on this!

Roa_Aoife · 02-21-2007, 05:08 PM

Happy to oblige, dear.

Garin · 02-22-2007, 04:07 AM

Mithalwen, I really hope you'll stick around.

Mithalwen · 02-22-2007, 12:57 PM

Mrs Bossy Knickers ...... isn't giving me much option but Wednesdays look like they will be really heavy at work so I can't guaruntee much activity. I would like to play again but I would rather pull out than not to be able to offer a reasonable level of involvement - it is not fair on other players .... aieee

Macalaure · 02-22-2007, 02:02 PM

I'm putting you off the list, then. I hope work gets better for you soon.

EDIT: Lalaith, I still have you noted down with a question mark. Are you playing?

Oh Iwas going to say that I would play unless anyone objected violently ... will wednesday pre 9 be a day or night?

Macalaure · 02-22-2007, 02:08 PM

Ooops!

I interpreted 'I would rather not play' as withdrawal.

Wednesday will be a day.

Mithalwen · 02-22-2007, 02:28 PM

OK .... how about this - if any other player objects to me playing please PM Mac and I won't . I won't ask for names... so if noone contacts you Mac I'm in and will do my best.

Lalaith · 02-22-2007, 02:47 PM

Well given that I have browbeaten poor Mith to play, its going to look a bit crap if I withdraw...so yes, I'm in. But ironically, like Mith I won't be around that much so I shall be much more low-profile than I used to be.
But in such a big village, there should be room for lots of playing styles....

Glirdan · 02-22-2007, 04:02 PM

Ahhhh!!! Completely forgot about this when I signed up, but I will most likely not be around from Tuesday till Friday of next week!! AHHH! However, I'll still play if there's no obections. If you do have a problem with that, let Mac know and I'll withdraw.

I guessed so, but I just wanted to make sure.

Keep in mind that I have a "no vote for two days => removal from game" rule. Can you make sure to vote at least once in that half week?

I highly doubt that's gonna happen, but to counteract the possibility, I will add my voice to that of those who are in favour of your participation.

No objections from me but that will be two days so, under Mac's ruling, you are liable to an untimely death if you are not able to make it for at least one of those.

As always, I am planning a lower level of participation than normal, simply because there are usually other things that I should be doing, rather than playing Werewolf (like working, spending time with Mrs S and the kids etc). But it never seems to work out that way ...

Glirdan · 02-22-2007, 07:53 PM

Hmmm.....Well, we shall see. I'm pretty sure that I will be able to though. We'll see.....we'll see.......

Roa_Aoife · 02-22-2007, 08:06 PM

Good news. Due to my recent joblessness, I'll be able to give full participation to this game.

Macalaure · 02-23-2007, 02:05 AM

Alrighty then.

The game will start tomorrow at 9PM GMT.

The rules will be shipped out in some hours, so this is the last chance to join now!

Mänwe · 02-23-2007, 06:20 AM

Thought I would just post and let the players know that I too am participating. For the first time, so please forgive me if I appear like a rabbit in headlights, the blood, gore, and accusations is going to take a little time to get used too.

Macalaure · 02-23-2007, 10:37 AM

Roles are out.

Don't forget to turn yourselves invisible!

Macalaure · 02-23-2007, 11:28 AM

UserCP > Edit Options > Use Invisible Mode

You should then see yourself in the active user list with an asterisk next to your name.

For me it's working. Does anybody else have problems?

Ooh does that mean I am allowed a hissy fit if peopel find it suspicious that I am quiet on Wednesday....?

Actually Sauce, teh decider from my end that I would play barring objections was the memory of all the games where you fretted about being available for the maximum duration and was dead by the second morning.... I realised the more I worried....the likelier it was it wouldn't be an issue....

the guy who be short · 02-23-2007, 03:11 PM

Are we starting with a night or a day phase?

Also, has anybody else wondered about how werewolf-games always take place during the equinox?

And we're starting with a night phase.

Thinlómien · 02-24-2007, 05:50 AM

As I've said before, I'm not sure if I can get online on Day1 and even if I can, I won't participate much. But after that I should be able to flood-post in the normal way.

Mänwe · 02-25-2007, 01:51 PM

Question, what is the deadline for villager posts. I.e. When is it considered "Night"? I am assuming it is 9pm GMT.

Macalaure · 02-25-2007, 02:08 PM

You're right.

Today at 9 GMT the first Day starts and everybody starts posting. Tomorrow, 9 PM GMT is the deadline for Day posting, and the Night begins, which lasts until the next day at 9 and so on.

The Might · 02-25-2007, 02:29 PM

why do we have to turn invisible?

Mithalwen · 02-25-2007, 02:33 PM

Mainly because if you are not invisible you can see on the "who's online" or individual profiles if someone is PMing. This might give clues as to the identities of wolves/ gifteds.

Mänwe · 02-25-2007, 03:41 PM

See or be seen? Surely when invisible you can also see who is on the "Active Users" list also. I apologise for what is a rather 'simple' question. I ask only because if I click on the "Active Users" when invisible I can see what is going on.

The Might · 02-25-2007, 04:12 PM

Well, I switched to invisible, so guess all is ok now.

Yes but the point is that you can't see people who are invisible. If you go look at the Active Users list right now you won't be able to see what I'm doing. That way there isn't a chance that if a player was PMing someone, be it because they actually were a wolf PMing their fellows or just chatting to a friend, it wouldn't make you suspicious of them because you wouldn't be able to see it.

I think!

Kath of course! Thank you for clearing that up.

Thinlómien · 02-26-2007, 01:25 AM

Plus if you're invisible no one can see when you've last been online. If someone saw you weren't online at all during the Night phase, s/he could conclude you aren't probably a gifted or a wolf, because they need to do things in the night-time, unlike ordos.

Oh, and never mind what I said about being inactive in Day1 before. I managed to mix up the days and thought Day1 would have been yesterday in RL...

I quote this just because some have complained that there are no occupations in this game. Some people like occupations, some don't, so I left it to you, but nobody took up one.

Kath · 02-26-2007, 07:20 AM

I wasn't complaining Mac! Merely observing.

Mänwe · 02-26-2007, 08:19 AM

And I have taken the role of Village Fisherman, innocent grafter is what I am.

The Might · 02-26-2007, 11:11 AM

Well, I want to apologize because I don't think I'm going to be able to stay active in this game.
It seems to require participation daily, and I don't think I have enough time for that at the moment, so sorry...maybe soon when I'll have some more free time

Hookbill the Goomba · 02-26-2007, 11:31 AM

Just to clarify... when is the deadline for votin'?

You should've told me before. Then I would have put Village Fisherman next to your name in the player list and it would have motivated others to take one, too.

That's a pity. I'll put you to death in the Night 2 -narration.
