Also, during the course of this game, I would appreciate it if you would refer to me as Lord Phantom, Master Phantom, Sir Phantom, or King Phantom.

Phew I'm glad this isn't a requirement

I shall be a messanger. I can run messages for Elves, Dwarves, Valar, Men, Orcs, you name it I'll run it.

I'd like everyone's opinion on which time would work the best.

I was just rethinking my schedule, and I've come up with these options...

I can make days and nights begin any time between 10 PM EST and 2 AM EST, or I suppose I could also do 8 AM EST if that is what most people prefer.

I imagine that no matter what time I choose there will be people who will only be able to be present early in the day or late in the day, so unless there is a large clamour for one particular time or another, I will probably pick 12 or 1 AM EST.

Please, voice your thoughts.

Mister Underhill? You sneaky devil. I never even guessed.
I prefer midnight for starts and ends. Days and Nights are 24 hours each to accomodate time zone differences, I'm guessing?
I wish to assume the role of tavern wench. If you won't let me, I will be a basket weaver who enjoys serving food and drink to the villagers. From my baskets.
Wolves PMing both Day and Night? How fabulous. And lastly...
Lord Phantom? Psh. Be satisfied with Moddess Goddess like we all were.

11-12 a.m. EST give or take an hour or so would work well for me, since that's right about the time when I usually go to sleep. I'll be able to check in rather briefly in the mornings, then, though most of my participation will come in the afternoon/evening (depending on the day) to night, which would mean that most of my participation would be closer to the end of the Day/Night phases, similar to WWI so long ago... that worked out well with school.

As long as DAYs and NIGHTs are 24 hours in duration- each- then I really don't care too much.

But, if it matters, I prefer an evening, or even a nighttime start. As a North American, I suppose that means the between 10 and 2 option...

I'm further west of you phantom some midnight is great for me but so is 8. 2AM gets a bit late but whatever works for all.

Sweet list of players -- can't wait for this game! I shall be a jewelsmith.

If the deadline is late night U.S. time, I will end up having to cast my vote early, as it's not likely I'll be able to get online so early in the morning that I'll be able to catch up with reading previous posts and arguments and making my decision - at approximately 6 am!

However, if others realize the time difference and take it into account when drawing their own conclusions, and if we have 24 hours each for day and night, I suppose it should work out. Perhaps we should do a time zone check - I'm in EDT, which is GMT + 2, until the end of this month.

My profession has already been logged. I look forward to the game with a bit of trepidation, as I'm a newbie to this. I hope to survive long enough to enjoy playing with all of you!
