1420! I cannot look at this any more!

C'mon, people, this is really silly, you are coming here like cockroaches to the beer! (it's a Czech proverb. Does it exist in other languages, I wonder?) I cannot just stand and do nothing. Though I thought that it's not good to werewolfe (a verb - "to werewolfe" - past tense "werewolfed") too often, since it costs a lot of time and also the ministry of health warns you: Werewolfing may cause insomnia, paranoia and lycantrophy, I can't simply look at this. It is true I was also worried that this might be a too much big thing to bite into, with all these unknown roles and so on... but who cares. Sign me in! The only thing I would like is that the game started ASAP, since I just happen to have quite good timetable in the following week and if the game does not start until next week, I might have to retreat. So, I strongly recommend everyone to subscribe now!

Oh, and I am very glad that there would be occupations involved in this one. I like that. So, concerning occupation... could I be a Uruk chieftain in retirement? (Menel, if there is any trouble with the Uruk because of the story, then I'll of course be a Man and reconsider the occupation - so tell if this is a problem or not.)

Meneltarmacil is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
A few updates:

Boromir88 has informed me that he will not be playing in this game, so I've removed his name from the list.

Since the sign-up phase has been taking this long, I'm going to drop the required number of players to 15. That means we only need four more people to sign up before the game begins. Hopefully, we can get started soon.

Oh no...people are taking so long to sign up we're actually starting to lose players...

Have you tried PMing members, Menel? That seemed to work quite well for Mac's game. I know I wouldn't have joined if I hadn't gotten that PM...

I guess I should say my reasoning so everyone can understand...I regret not being able to participate in this game; it's not a time issue, I've been having health problems recently and don't think I can deal with the responsibility of a WW game. I regret not being able to play, as I greatly wanted to try the excitement of these 'mysterious roles,' but as some others have wisely told me my health is more important...and I'll be taking it slow for a while. Sorry again, I really wish I could play in this one.

I think that I would like some reason for you to call me the Sixth Wizard, therefore my occupation shall be Magician who is Lousy and Rubbish . Obviously judging by the 'lousy and rubbish' bit the Sixth Wizard is my name for myself not yours.

That's quite understandable, Boro. It's a pity though. I hope you'll get better.

Menel, if this game is going to be going on during the Easter weekend, I have to drop out. So maybe you'd better add a questionmark after my name.

Are you pausing for Easter or carrying on through?
