The Saucepan Man has been trapped in the Barrow!

Morsul, old chap, I'll put this down to WWn00byness too, but it is generally considered very bad form in Werewolf games to edit the content of one's posts in any major way. The reason being that a Wolf could otherwise use the edit function to hide its tracks. You can edit to correct something minor like a typo which doesn't affect the content or to indicate where you have cross-posted with someone but, if you do, you should always give the reason for the edit.

If you need to explain something in a previous post, or add to it, or anything like that, then you should put it in a new post.

I'm off to paint something dark, glistening and tentacled. I'll be back later in the Day.

Ok... So here's my post explaining my old post

I voted, but not really, so then I was going to change my nonexistent vote, then felt it unfair to other players so I kept my original vote.

so In conclusion my vote is:

++Nienna

Morsul then shuffles off into the stacks to look for the official WWGame Guide... Dewey Don't fail me now!

I don't think narrations provide anything of importance besides who dies. McCaber wouldn't say who was a wolf right in the story. I'd only vote for something someone else has already posted. Then again, I've only got one more game than you, Morsul, so I could be wrong...but I think the narrations have to include everyone, and it would be hard to make everyone seem perfectly innocent.

Morsul dear you didn't have to vote again.

There is nothing wrong with multiple posts, heck, we love lots of posts, especially Day 1. So no editing of any sort is needed.

Narrations don't have hints, unless they're crazy ones that only the person being hinted at and the mod can understand, but even those don't occur very often. The only sort of "hints" we'll get is if the ranger protects someone during the night, but even those are usually just said out right and not really hinted.

Also, you're supposed to be 'invisible' for this game. If you don't know how, there's an explanation in the Admin thread.

Both of these comments seem a bit of an overreaction to Pitchwife's first words. Granted, I've no idea if he can be trusted, but I see nothing there of particular note.

Sorry Nienna I feel like a jerk for using a technicality to change my vote so I have to go with my original impulse I'll be more careful in the future

The Admin Thread is the place to find info such as how votes are to be indicated and such. It varies from game to game, depending on mod preferences.

Forgive me, my friends, for my lateness in reappearing, but the fact is that I needed to catch up on some sleep. I had a late night– one of uncles had just returned from a brief sojourn below, and had much to tell me of the wonders of many-columned Y’ha-nthlei.

He looks fishy? And you roll your eyes?

Sure you're really blind?

Indeed, surely these monstrous outsiders will want to appear helpful, while saying nothing that might give themselves away. And yet it is also a fact that nobody had really contributed much at that point.

Oh yes. I seem to remember a narration of that kind...

Edit:x'd with Inziladun.
