This was a challenge as all I wanted to do was pick people to give the roles too. This ended up happening with Wilwa, phantom and Kath. Why? Wilwa brought me a Kath for my birthday and Wilwa convinced phantom to play. End of story.
But the rest were kind of fun to pick. I wrote the remaining 16 players names on small sheets of paper, folded them up and put them in my fedora. I then grabbed another sheet and wrote the role on it. I drew six names from it. From those six names, I looked at the gender of the God/Goddess and removed the opposite sex (you’ll see what I mean in a minute) then put the remaining names back in the hat and drew until one player’s name had been drawn five times. This is how the draws happened
NOTE: I have little comments for each of them because something happened
Poseidon
First Draw – Eonwe, Greenie, Lottie, Lalaith, Zil, Nog
Removed – Greenie, Lottie, Lalaith
Second Draw
Eonwe 4
Zil 2
Nog 5
*This was funny for me as Eonwe was leading and was JUST about to get the role before Nog swooped in with another three times. Oh, and keep watching the player’s drawn on the first draw and you’ll notice something that made me laugh!
Hades
First Draw - Rikae, Eonwe, Lalaith, Greenie, Shasta, Nienna
Removed - Rikae, Lalaith, Shasta, Nienna
Second Draw
Eonwe 3
Shasta 5
*Not gonna lie, I was kind of hoping this one would work out this way….Sorry Eonwe!!! Don’t hate me!!
Persephone
First Draw - Zil, Greenie, Boro, Nerwen, Nienna, Mac
Removed - Zil, Boro, Mac
Second Draw
Greenie 2
Nerwen 5
Nienna 2
*Nerwen won this one in a landslide ladies. I had a feeling it would be her because her name had three points to it before either of you two had on. And I hope you’ve all caught two names that have kept resurfacing in all of these!
Demeter
First Draw - Boro, Tum, Eonwe, Folwren, Nienna, Greenie
Removed - Boro, Eonwe
Second Draw
Tum 1
Folwren 2
Nienna 1
Greenie 5
*Another landslide. Greenie finally got a role after having her name drawn EVERY SINGLE time to this point! I was REALLY tempted to just give the role to Nienna (all Bostonmooters [and probably Genevamooters as well] would fully understand why [LOVE YOU Ni!!]) but I figured that Greenie deserved it after having her name drawn three times and getting nothing. Oh, and in the first four draws, all four ladies were drawn once.
Hebe
First Draw - Lalaith, Rikae, Boro, Mira, Zil, Folwren
Removed - Boro, Zil
Second Draw
Lalaith 4
Rikae 4
Mira 5
Folwren 4
*I honestly had no idea which way this was going to go because it was close throughout the entire thing. Every time I drew a name, it was a different one (obviously).
Hercules
First Draw - Rikae, Lalaith, Mac, Folwren, Zil, Nienna
Removed - Rikae, Lalaith, Folwre, Nienna
Second Draw
Mac 5
Zil 4
*Again, another REALLY close round. Everytime I drew Mac, Zil’s name would follow right behind it.
Apollo
First Draw – Tum, Nienna, Boro, Lalaith, BeiGei, Zil
Removed - NONE (Will explain in footnote)
Second Draw
Tum 5
Nienna 1
Boro 2
Sally 4
BeiGei 4
Zil 3
*The reason I did not remove any names from this round is because Apollo is the True Seer and I felt like mixing it up. At this point, I started cutting the names being drawn from 6 to 4
Hermes
First Draw – Eonwe, Zil, Boro, Rikae
Removed - NONE (Will explain in footnote)
Second Draw
Eonwe 1
Zil 1
Boro 5
Rikae 0
*Same reason as Apollo, as the False Seer, I did not want Hermes to have any gender constriction…a lot of good that did eh? And at this point, I only have two male players left with many more male roles, so all names remain in at this point.
Ares
First Draw - Rikae, Folwren, Lottie, Eonwe
Second Draw
Rikae 5
Folwren 3
Lottie 4
Eonwe 4
*This was an entertaining draw for me as Lottie wasn’t even on the map as the other three had two draws each, and then Lottie came out of nowhere and had four votes, with Rikae still at two. Yay randomness!! At this point, three names are being drawn.
Hephaestus
First Draw - Zil, Eonwe, Lalaith
Second Draw
Zil 2
Eonwe 0
Lalaith 5
*Poor Eonwe still hasn’t received a role yet and I think there have only been a couple of times when his name wasn’t drawn.
Aphrodite
First Draw - Folwren, BeiGei, Zil
Second Draw
Sally 2
BeiGei 5
Zil 4
*Another interesting round. Zil had four draws by the time Foley even had one and BeiGei had two.
Pan
First Round - Eonwe, Lottie, Nienna
Second Round
Eonwe 2
Sally 1
Nienna 5
*Eonwe got gypped again!! Nienna is lucky though because the role after next to be handed out is the Hunter…and some of us know her terrible luck with Hunters lol. Note at this point, two names are being drawn.
Dionysus
First Round - Eonwe, Folwren
Second Round
Eonwe 0
Folwren 5
*….And again gypped. Just not his luck I guess!
Artemis
First Round - Lottie, Eonwe
Second Round
Lottie 5
Eonwe 2
*And gypped once more!! Maybe he’ll get lucky with the next round!?
Eros
Zil 5
Eonwe 2
*And again, he misses which means….
Athena
Eonwe 0
Sally 5
*Definitely not his day…In other words, I’m sorry Eonwe. This is what happens when it is quite literally luck of the draw!! Don’t hate me!!
