Welcome to WW, Groin! It is deffinitely not too late! And thanks

Azaelia, I would like a confirmation from you if you'd really like to quit the game. Please don't!

If there's anyone who's willing to fight on mûmakback, I'm happy to provide them with a mûmak.

If not, I guess I'll be some Easterling. Or a Karate Dwarf.

Ok, you can take that question mark away, Volo. I doubt I'll be able to miss this.

I haven't decided on a character occupation yet... v_v;

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

I have finally read all the rules properly and really went through them so I can at least post a few *strikes through* several *strikes through* pack lots horde throng swarm legion; okay, that was enough; questions. Well, it's not that much, but these are some things I wanted to clear up...

-During Stage2 the role of the lynched player will be revealed to a living player chosen by random.org.

I presume that this will be revealed to the player sometime right after the DL, so that it does not happen that the Counsellor decides to inspect someone and at the same time is randomly chosen to be told the role of the dead player.

And by the way, technically, the Counsellor is something very close to Cobbler, right?

-No double-lynches.

So what happens if there is an equation of votes? The one who got the most the first is lynched? From what you replied to Val, I would presume it is like that, but it's always better to ask for certain.

-Editing the content of your posts is forbidden.

Even to mark cross-posting?

As nasty as it is, the Guardian will lose the ability to attack anybody during the Night if he/she is lucky/skilful enough to kill a Wolf before. I think this way the Guardian balances the teams better. Of course, the Guardian doesn't have to attack every Night.

So, just to make this really straight: the Guardian's ability is one to use really rather very tactically, and simply said, we can say he is a Hunter with the ability to take down one Wolf per the whole game (and eventually, some unlucky innocents before).

And last question, the introduction of our character should be posted here, or PMed to you, or is it sufficent to introduce inside the game itself?

Okay, so that's about all I had in mind right now

[Meneltarmacil]

Well, since the sign-up list does not appear to be full, I'll play. I'll be a Musk Ox Farmer.

I'll try to send out the roles as soon as possible. The Counsellor is very much like a Cobbler, but with the extra ability.

Yup, that's the case.

Oh, but that isn't truly the content of a post. Cross-posting may be marked and smelling corrected.

Well, yes, the role isn't very unlike the Assassin (+ the Hunter). In the best case the Guardian may catch two Wolves: one by attacking (Assassin/Wolf's ability) and one by hunting (Hunter's ability). The only part that makes the Guardian very hard is the fact that the ammount of Wolves is unknown and it may be that a wrong kill is enough to lead to defeat already early on.

Post it here. I'll post an example - made up because I was bored...

Welcome Menel! You can be a humble farmer, but wouldn't you rather be a mighty warrior (check #22)?

[Meneltarmacil]

Oh, whoops. Forgot to read the premise. I'll be a warrior then.

I thought that making a "profile" for your gladiator might be easier than writing an interview. It may be as crazy or un-crazy as you like it to be, or you may not write it at all and have your character stay very mysterious.

-(Almost) singlehandedly got maximum points from the passing exam of Tol-In-Gaurhoth University of Dire Arts
Star sign: fish, you know, the half-eaten.
Favourite food: potatoes fried on blood, sweat and tears, and beer.

Wierdest rumor you have heard about yourself: I was once asked if I'm Beren. Another time I was asked if I'm Gothmog... Go figure...
Hobbies: Causing fictionary traffic jams, sports
Tell us something that nobody else knows about you: I have nothing to tell! ;D Haha! Good one, eh?
