If it is 5:30am GMT, then it's 12 and a half hours from this post.

Do you think we will start with a night phase first?

I think so... Isn't that usually so? (Night phase first)

Normally, but we usually do that and have the thread up and running a whole day before the game starts. That way, the Seer has a chance to go through the names and pick someone and for the Wolves to PM each other. Now that we have two Seers, they get to do the same thing. But don't worry, Nilp is probably doing this on purpose. Either that or it's that drated timezone illness again.

i am surprised that Nilp has time for proper modding but I am sure he will prove me wrong.
All I say is that this might be my last WW for a time (going through major changes)

Sorry again!
Absolutely last flip-flop.
I failed to see a vote for 8:30am (dancing spawn's, of all people to miss ), so we have a tie, 10 votes in favour of each. Mod puts foot down and says 8:30am. It's final, I promise. Expect roles within the hour.

My posting on Day 1 will be brief, but I try to get online at least.

TGWBS will be largely inactive tomorrow. He has a school trip that will take until 6pm GMT.
He may post about 7pm GMT. He may post at 8:40am GMT if he is lucky. But he will not post frequently, not much. |

I'll be absent for much of the day too; I've been down with a bug and have a lot of work to catch up with.

I'll probably have just enough time to say something that will get me lynched.
I really wish that we had decided on 5:30 but that is dead issue. 2 Seers, 4 wolves and the lovers... This is going to be interesting. It appears that Nilp-Mod has EDIT: Hasn't an assistant or co-mod. This is true, no?

I shall be absent for most of the day, but I will make sure I post and read through the posts and vote. I can't promise I'll talk much, I have a review due on thursday and I am just starting it now....EEK!

Well, because of this final time change, my posting will be less then I would like and my voting will be about five hours early at latest, maybe earlier.

Though I'd normally be able to vote right before the deadline, I shall be forced to cast an extremely early vote today. I'm visiting a friend who lives on the other side of the country and won't return till tomorrow. May the Prophet forgive me.

I'm going to leave soon (and I'm going to be away for a while), but I will be back before voting time. Just to inform you.
And I'd be happy if I knew what our thread's name means...

Re: The meaning of the title.
It's in Filipino.
~Ang (definite article) = The ~Saga (English word) ~-ng (inflection when adding an adjective) ~Daga (BD's foreign word of the decade) = Mouse ~bow (English word) *I added it to make it resemble the Filipino parody of simple poems. So, it means 'The Mousey Saga, bow.' Or something like that. Originally I planned to title it 'The Saga Sagaciously Continues', but daga called to me.

And keeping one of daga's familial connotations in mind, it was completely appropriate.

There is an increasing tendency for players to post on this thread simply to tell people when, during the Day, they will be on-line and when they will be voting. I am not so sure that this is a good thing, as it clutters up the thread and should not really be necessary. If there are time zone issues then, if people are not already aware, these can be made clear before the game starts.
Otherwise, I think that the noticeboard should only really be used during a game to notify long periods of absence (ie a Day or more).

I'm sorry to be such a Puritan, but might I ask-just a precaution, there haven't really been any cases yet-that people don't get too excited about the Lovers aspect, with regard to language etc?
I don't mind in the least, but I have an extremely stringent school server which blocks sites based on the mildest little things. It would be a pity to find myself barricaded from the Downs for the vast majority of the year when I'm incarcerated here...

Besides, how do you define voting early? Within the first hour, four hours, half a day? If everyone keeps coming on and saying when they have to vote by, it surely gets a bit silly.

I would say within the first half of the Day possibly extending a little further for those with timezone issues, though if all the players are aware of those who have those difficulties that wouldn't need to be mentioned.

Be advised
I won't be around for too long today. tomorrow or on Friday. Tomorrow happens to be my birthday!!! Which means that today I'll be distracted and trying to get as much work done as I Can, so that I don't have to do it on my b-day. Tomorrow it does not matter as it's the night phase.... then on Friday I will probably be going out to celebrate my b-day with my friends. I should have time to check in but don't expect me to be too talkative.

Um . . .
I forgot this in the list of rules, sorry. I'll just put it here.
Dissenting Kill Choices When three or more Werewolves are still alive, the player with the most number of Werewolf 'votes' will be the NIGHT's kill. In cases of ambiguity, I will request the Werewolves to individually PM their choices. When only two Werewolves are left, the NIGHT's victim will be whomever the first Werewolf to PM me chooses. When there is only one Werewolf left . . . you figure this out.

Oh, and reminder.
Tomorrow is a Saturday. I mentioned before, Saturdays will be weird. I shall be closing the DAY two to three hours earlier than usual. I shall try my best to end the day as close to the nominal end time as possible.
Sorry for that inconvenience.

My votes will probably be pretty early from now on and my posting very limited as well (back to school tomorrow ). I'll try and post as much as possible.

Question:
Can I play in Valier's WWJ game and still mod for the "regular" WW? I'm up next on the list and I don't want to miss my chance.... yet Valier has invited me to her game and I wouldn't want to let her down either.

Well, when the Werewolf Junior thread was started, it was originally intended that people should not be playing (which includes moderating) in two Werewolf games at the same time. This was because one of the main reasons for starting the Werewolf Junior games (apart form allowing "newbies" to cut their fangs - ahem - teeth) was to ensure that those who wanted to play but had missed out on one game could play in another.
I suppose that there is some room for flexibility with regard to this "rule", but it seems to me that, where games are oversubscribed, priority should be given to those who are not already playing.

No problem with that SPM.... sounds reasonable enough =) I shall pencil my name down for Valier's then, and if more people join in I will step down. By the way, can I count on you for my game?

I'm letting everyone know that this will be my one and only post all day today. I have a lot of homework to do and will not have time to come and check what's going on.

Oh great ModGod Nilp - I'm assuming you're keeping the voting open for longer because of the site being down earlier. Can you give any guidance to your worshipful minions as to how long you're planning the extension for?

Could someone point me in the direction of the list(s) for modding WW and WWJ. I know I could look myself, but the phrase 'needle in a haystack' comes to mind!

Well . . .
DAY has been closed. I will not hold this DAY against those who have not posted or voted. They have a good excuse, after all.
