Just wanted to say... My vote was after DL, so I had to delete it.

edit: So it seems that I could have kept it. Oh well... too late now.

If it was, then it was. I was refreshing things really quickly so in hindsight I'm not sure if you squeaked in or not (I thought you had at the time).

In any case, it doesn't count now.

It's okay to wait 5 minutes or so to let things cool down before we go and delete everything.

Okay, so just to reiterate:

Oh no - famous last words.
I can't find where it says (if it says) what the voting/modfire rules are, but if you want to modfire me, I richly deserve it. I almost voted this morning to prevent this from happening... should have done so - ended up spending the whole day running errands in the new car with the clock three hours slow.

Narration is up, and I'm rather proud of it.

There are no modfire rules in this game. The houseguests should deal with such situations themselves.

And rightly so! Thanks, thanks, thanks for a great death scene! I was panting with excitement reading this. Awesome job!
And good luck to all my fellow innocents! I can't wait to watch the end of this...

At the last minute, though, Eönwë cast the deciding vote for Inziladun.
Did he indeed? I thought Eönwe's vote was after deadline and didn't count?
Last time I looked, it was Nerwen who brought Inzil up to 2 votes together with Shasta and me. Please clarify!

I will personally kill you....





In other news I will be here to post the deadline but then I have to leave to check out a job opportunity. Please do not engage in any post-game discussion until you are told it is okay to do so, and after that make sure to keep all 'I told you so's, squeeing, and/or ranting confined to the admin thread. Thanks!



~~Sally~~


P.S. By post-game discussion I also mean revealing, so if you are killed (wolf or ordo) do NOT tell everyone what you are. Thanks again!

Ah, but I'm in charge now.


In all seriousness, no matter what happens (even if Rikae is the only one left alive at the end of the Day) my last instruction still stands. Narration will be up hopefully at exactly 2pm. Thanks for your patience if I'm a bit late.

Now that's rude indeed!

I mean the only thing we wish now is to start the rambling immediately! Why wait until tomorrow or something?

And we know the result anyway.

I'm not one of those who say the mods are taking too much power to themselves or use dictatorial means, but not being able to start the post-game discussion when the game ends is a strict violation of human rights! I'll make an appeal to the United Nations for this!

Hushabye, dear one. Patience is a virtue, and I've always thought you a rather nice man. Wait for Her Duckess's instructions.


ETA: Oh, and I'd just like to say.

I saw the narration, all right.

Well, Rikae had to buy the right to the victory - and she surely did it! *kudos*

Stow it, the both of you! Understand?!

*loves her Pirates of the Carribean*


Look, I have to go out for a job interview, but I was not kidding about discussion and stuff. Please to be keeping quiet, as Mnemo commands it.


Alternatively....

Silence! I kill you!
