Ahey! Welcome, sister! :p I am selfishly happy about you joining us. :p

Macalaure 05-11-2020 03:25 PM

Welcome to the dead side. We have cookies!

Galadriel55 05-11-2020 03:25 PM

Now we can finally figure out a proper way to integrate Prolonged QT Syndrome into this game. :D

You gifted revealed, like any cobbler would, and got lucky. Still think you'd have been more use to the wolves alive in the late game ... but why don't you ask them? :p

Huinesoron 05-11-2020 03:26 PM

Hi Lhuna, welcome to the madhouse! This lot are all annoyingly in tune on who to vote for, so hopefully the rest of the pack send us someone who can get them squabbling and let your tie-breaker get to work.

Don't know about that, but she's been invaluable in preserving my lack of sanity in the QT.

Or perhaps the Wolves thought I would be best used the way I was? Did that thought make its way into your considerations? :smokin:

satansaloser2005 05-11-2020 03:29 PM

Welcome, Lhunatic! Happy to have you here on many levels! :smokin:


I stand corrected today re: my hesitance to vote Lhuna. Well done, all!

Obviously you thought they did. And I know why. And it's hilarious.

Or did I pretend I thought they did? You keep either underestimating or overestimating the thought process I put into the last bit of Day 1 when I came back to see I was on the block.

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders,

the most famous of which is

“Never get involved in a land war in Asia,”

but only slightly less well known is this:

“Never talk to a cobbler, when death is on the line!”

I'm so happy to finally be in (what I believe is) the more fun thread! :smokin:

If I had known I would wake up and find myself here, I would have given my greeting to sally in person.

Lhunardawen 05-11-2020 06:00 PM

And putting this out there for those of us west of the Pacific:

THIS DEADLINE SUCKS

Lhunardawen 05-11-2020 09:31 PM

Caught up to the first half of the thread while totes not-working from home. Bad Lhuna.

*raises hands* I was tempted to comment about it on the living thread but was paranoid it might be used against me somehow. Apparently anything can happen in this game. :rolleyes:

I'm dead now anyway, but I will have to admit that every now and then I checked the post count on this thread and wonder what's happening.

:D Lucky we don't have a modmegil in the game (but I do wish morm were playing, though).

++WALLS OF TEXT to Mordor. I'm already loving this thread. <3

Also Mac, I saw what you did with the permutations. Thank you for noticing.

If it's not too much to ask, Noggie, can you do this with every QT vote until she joins us? :Merisu:

Genuinely curious, may I ask why? Mac, sally, and Leggie can attest (if they remember, that is) that I hate being evil and am always nervous and over-cautious when I am one. Except for this game. It was a relief to finally enjoy being a wolf, for the first time, but apparently evil Lhuna works better when she's nervous and guilty about being evil. :rolleyes:

What was it?

The setting: a Faithful hideout on Numenor during the height of the Dark Times. Everyone has to be quiet in case Sauron's priests hear.

hS, game theorist? Maybe not.

I would join this game - if you promise not to make me a baddie.

I think I was there, but I totally can't remember. You know you've been gone from the Downs for far too long when.

I had a chaos-inducing suicide plan that was anchored on the Cobbler being alive, but I'm not sure if that makes her getting lynched early a good thing or not. :p

Isn't the fact that we can talk Day and Night already a manifestation of this?

Well well, but imagine if you didn't. And now you also were the first :)

That being said: happy birthday, sally! Should we throw some party here?

https://i.pinimg.com/originals/29/4f...b8d26bb1fa.jpg

Though to be fair, it should be the Infected posting this one, not me! But given how nicely I participated in lynching sally, I think I can consider myself qualified... :rolleyes:

I think it was something in that whole discussion you and Lommy had about whether I would have dreamed of this or that if I were the Seer. I don't recall what this one thing was in particular, but I got the feeling that you were kind of writing as if you really actually considered I was the Seer (when, obviously, the moment I died it was clear I wasn't one).

Yeah, I thought not in that one. I remember you played in the first game I modded, which was incidentally also CoH-themed, "Werewolves Among The Wolf-Men", and there you were a Wolf, if I'm not mistaken.

Yes, with Jay! For some reason, every now and then I still randomly remember "Androg stole Beleg's bow" (was that right?) in that game and have a little chuckle, even though I hardly recall its context.

Ooh yes! I rememeber! The point was that there was Beleg (=Ranger), but also Andróg, a sort of semi-Cobbler, or rather a person who was simply out for themselves, and who could target someone every Night and if they targeted Beleg, they took away his bow (Ranger powers) and got it for themselves.

...wait. Wasn't it so that Beleg and Andróg were Mac and Rikae? :eek: Now I remember...!

edit: MY EYEBALLS!

Oh yes, I remember Roa quite fondly as well! With all the people coming out of the woodwork for this game, I almost expected to see her, but alas, perhaps another time.

I actually thought of asking her to join via Messenger, but then thought that she'll join if she has time / feel for it.

She really is one of the "All Time Greats".

Galadriel55 05-12-2020 09:37 AM

I have to apologize to me lovely infectors for not being able to participate as much. The way my schedule works this week, I will be available just before the QT DL, but that means I'll have a lot to catch up to from the bulk of the Day. I am very happy that I died before my schedule changed. :D

Here's hoping for the Seer!
