Macalaure, do not think that I am criticising, but would it not be better to simply say 'Deadline' and who is lynched without revealing their identity just in case of cross posting?

^Agreed. You can edit it in after checking cross-posting and waiting two minutes.

Equivocation.

I used to put up deadlines then post outcome later with death scene, however I have to invoke the Divine Right of Moderators to arrange things as suits them. And of course it is nice to know more quickly than a death scene can be written - though you lose the suspense....

The funny thing is, I told myself to just post 'deadline' first and then enter the name shortly after, but each time I was so emotionally involved in following the game, that I forgot!

I promise to better.

PS: I never liked it that much when mods wait to post the role-reveal til they have the narration finished. Sometimes that takes somewhat longer and sometimes I even had to go to bed not knowing whether the lynched person was guilty or not.
This way, I can take all the time I need to write down the narration (and fight with creative block) without having people waiting impatiently.

Hmm...the funny thing is that before I even put in my vote, I predicted I would be lynched. I just get bad feelings about these things and they tend to be accurate. Oh well, what a great end to a terrible day! (I am currently stuck overnight alone in a Seattle airport..pfft) I only wish I could've been there at the end of the Day.

Anyways, I've enjoyed my first experience of WW and would love to do this again. Hopefully I've learned something after my horrible newbie playing. I'm only slightly disappointed how horrible my timing is. It only figures I get lynched the Day before I have all the time in the world to devote to WW.

Anyways, good luck to all you innocents! I shall go and enjoy my spring break (once I get out of this darned airport...)
