Alright then I apologise. I assumed it was 2am so didn't get back on today to vote.

I am on US Eastern Time and I have school, so I will not be posting until about 5 and a half hours after the next phase starts. So please don't think I'm just being silent.

Awfully sorry about the time confusion Kath and others. Days and Nights now return to (usually) normal length.
However, I will be somewhat late to post the beginning of Night 2 tomorrow-probably doing so at about 5pm GMT-thus giving you a few extra hours to vote. So far this has been a joy to read-everyone's keeping to their wolvish characters excellently. EDIT: Another blunder. I mean the beginning of Day 3 and the end of Night 2-ie the second devouring-will be posted a tad late.

Rather a worrying quantity of those I need names from haven't been in touch and it's in theory an hour till the end of the Day. Do make haste; I can postpone by another hour but any later and I'll have to call on poor Cailin again to jump into the breach.

I have school this evening (our class is going to theatre) and I don't know how soon I can get back from there. Then of course, I'd like to take a nap and go to school again the next morning, so you'll be seeing me quite little toNight. I should have a few hours before the closing of the voting, but I certainly try to get online before it, too.

I will be around tonight but due to a recent "mini-promotion" at work I will be posting less than is my wont during this night phase.

I must be quick as I'm already late... I won't be around for quite a few hours now, but I should be back before the voting is done. Just to let you know.

Idea!
I should have posted this before, but I have been keeping a bit of a log of my thoughts every night. Writing helps me organize my ideas so I figured I'd keep them just in case I can go back to them later on. Still, if anyone else is keeping logs, it might be quite fun to post them after the game is over. I'm sure mine will be full of wrong suspicions but if anyone is interested the two rules I set for my log is that
-Nothing is deleted, even if I'm proven awfully wrong -Even the most insignificant idea is worth writing, you never know when a slight suspicion could turn into a vote Just give me your thoughts on this, for fun's sake I guess. |

I don't personally keep notes of my own, but those who do usually give them at the end of the game. It's rather fun to see who had it right towards the beginning and who was 100% certain and was way off. We already know I was 73% certain and was way off!
![]() So yes, you're welcome to post you notes/log at the end of the game. Usually people just finish conversation about the game in that individual game thread once it has played to completion.

Chaps, I think we can talk about this later. But I do suggest keeping any notes you make, so we can enjoy them at the end of all things.
For now, back to sleeping or killing!

A question
Are we going to have a break for Christmas? If so, I'd like to know when.

As stated earlier, I will be gone from December 25-28 and will return the 29th. However, Winter Break for my school has officially started (today was the last school day) so tomorrow I will probably be able to post the whole time rather than being tied to a certain portion of the game.

dancing spawn, yep, we'll observe Gaurhothmas.
Night 4 will begin at 2:00 GMT tomorrow and end at 2:00 GMT Christmas Eve. Day 5 will then last till 2pm GMT Boxing Day. That makes the whole of Christmas and half of Boxing Day days of rest; and if people want the later part of Boxing Day they needn't post in early Night 5. If the game is still going on the 28th (quite likely) then I'll ask Cailin to take up my tools and finish the job, as I'll be in a remote Irish castle, not unlike Tol-in-Gaurhoth's Tower itself, and about as low on internet access...

Tol-in-Gaurhoth Sub-Forum?
Well, that was a brilliant game. I don't know if I'll be in the next or not, might depend on it's starting date.
But now I've got a pretty crazy idea, it doesn't have to do a lot with the games themselves, more toward the threads. I'm sure that at least Saucepan will read this and if he thinks its a good idea, then he'll probably pull some strings to get it done. So we have, at the least, twenty threads specifically for Tol-in-Gaurhoth. 15 WW game threads (including this thread) 2 WWJ game threads WWJ set-up thread At least two 'pick-a-team' type threads What if we put all the Tol-in-Gaurhoth threads in a sub-forum? I know I've tried to go back and look at the old games, but some are rather hard to find. It takes a good three or four searches to pull up all of the games. It would be a lot easier to get at them if they were all there right in front of us in one forum. I don't really know how much work it actually takes to put up a sub-forum, much less move all the threads, but I think it would be a pretty awesome way to have the old games displayed if anyone wanted some interesting reading. So anybody like the idea? Dislike it? Moderators want to shoot me for suggesting more work? ![]()

For those who might be interested, here is the score up till now (not counting WWJ).
(Since we recently had some role reversal, I'll use the phrase "The Three" for the you know whos.) The Three have won 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, and 14 for a total of ten wins. The Ordos have won 4, 6, 8, 12, and 15 for a total of five. The Black Beornings have won squat for a total of naught. We Downers definitely seem to be better at sneaking about and underhanded skull duggery as the ordos have yet to win two games running. At least, at this moment, they have a foundation to build on.

The werewolves (almost) always win. So if we keep the werewolves ordinary a few more games, the Ordos will have a better chance catching up with the Three Stoogies.

I think the newest one should be The Inklings vs. the Science and Math(s) Department. *mock horror* The location would clearly be Oxford, and other than that I'll leave it up to those who know more about Tolkien's peers than I. And who's modding the next game? |

Please pardon! I meant no offense, in fact I didn't (and don't) expect it to be taken seriously by anyone. It was just a new twist on our old game.

I miss werewolf...It's been too long since I played! Conveniently, my schedule has recently opened up quite a bit, and that allows me to participate in the next game!
So sign me up, please!

So it looks like we need someone to volunteer. What happened to that old list of people who wanted to do it, it had got pretty long as I recall. Perhaps if we offered the game to one of them?

I was on that list. And I was selfishly sitting here, hoping to mod the next round after this... but in hindsight I begin to think that maybe I shall take a crack at it now. Okay, it's official: I, Michael A. Joosten, officially known to the Barrow-Downs as the Lord Formendacil, do herewith put forward my name to moderate the 16th game of Tol-in-Gaurhoth.

And I would like to participate in the next game, whoever is running it. (my occupation will depend on the situation we're in)

Oh! I would love to join your game, Formendacil, if you'll allow me.

Okay, so we have: Cailin Azaelia Meneltarmacil ... thus far. And I have, for better, worse, or indifference, assumed the role of modular (to "borrow" an inappropriate adjective) tyranny. I am planning on waiting a while to start the game. I'm thinking of a January 7thish start. And yes, that is over a week from now, but I want to wait until people have settled back into their post-holiday lives, and not have to worry about travelling, or relatives, or any of that inconvenient stuff. Please keep that starting time in mind if you want to join. Also, if anyone thinks that's too long to wait, and wants to mod a game, starting sooner, then I'll gladly step down and take the next turn. Seriously, I wouldn't mind.
