Tol-in-Gaurhoth LVII - Chess Game for Middle Earth: Game Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Anyone around?

I see there's been virtually nothing but banter yet. I know, it can be hard to find something to talk about on Day 1... but still, all these new twists... (on the other hand, though, if Brinniel starts psychoanalysing the Black Pawn, I'll know what to think). As always, one starts to wonder about motives. Is it possible, for instance, that a were-tp or were-sally was making a "sarcastic confession" up there?

Hey all I'm sorry to do this but my weekend got very busy and the deadline was much earlier than I'd thought! This means that right now is the only chance I have to post toDay.

Therefore I'm going to randomly vote right now because I've read through what there is on the thread and, well, it's hardly helpful in making a decision!

++NERWEN

Because she was the last person to post before me.

Hmm, but I suppose I should add some thoughts in even though there's nothing to go on, otherwise I'll be leaving myself very open for a Night 1 death.

Mnemo - ducks have been proven to be evil in the past, I'll go with that!
Sally - oh definitely evil.
phantom - clearly a pawn trying to get to the other side of the board by making himself look important.

Izzy - erm, fiery depths? Not keen!
Brinn - I think innocent, therefore guilty.
Eomer - definitely innocent, at least for as long as it takes to see what this new persona is about.
Nerwen - thoughtful.

Apologies for that! I will be around tomorrow.

Erm. Hello. Nice to know you all, besides those I knew already. [Sally doesn't know me. But I know her... well, her name.]
I'm taking hours writing this post. This is so wrong.

*deep breath*

I can start by introducing myself. You can call me Hansy... it's not that long so it doesn't need to be shortened. Reminds me of what you did to poor Beregond last game. I read the books some time ago. They were fun, but too long to be true. So I don't remember most of it. I liked Aragorn and Legolas (yay I'm so creative!). And I like kittens. You probably figured that out after seeing my avatar.

About the werewolf... well, this is quite a different experience. I took my time reading the previous game... [I skipped Sally's spam show] and I would always agree with Legate. The guy that apparently was wrong all the time. But I liked his reasoning

I hope you'll forgive me, but I don't think I'll bold names... unless I start writing bigger-than-huge posts and it gets really hard to read. Which I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon.

Now let's talk about roles. Hi Nerwen.

[Random Comment 3: Well, at least this time people aren't roleplaying. I just can't do that.]
[Random Comment 4: The icons below the textbox strangely remind me of Zelda.]

My my my, fiery-mountain-volcano-wizard chess, how wonderful.

So I come on all excited about the 33 replies and hope to do some wonderful analises, but it's all banter

.

I see some confessions up there, though they appear to be shielded under sarcasm I'll bet that atleast one of them is a baddie. Or they're all bad and it was their plan to "sarcastically" confess right off the bat. Or they're all good just trying to make their ordinary status more interesting. So many possibilities...

Anyways, I'll be heading off to work soon, that gives me the next 6 hours to try and think up some intelligent theories regarding some of the roles. I'll be back as soon as I get home.

Play nicely!
