It can also cause difficulties when Werewolves are in completely different time zones, as occured in the recently concluded game. The Werewolves took some time getting their choice of victim to me at first, although it speeded up as the game progressed. Therefore, I think that a 24 hour longstop for NIGHT is preferable, albeit that NIGHT may last a lot less time in practice, particularly in the later stages of the game.

Eomer, I don't have a problem with you moderating, but I'm very curious about the rules you were messing up, or is it some private joke between you and SaucePan Man.

If we'll be playing many games, perhaps a "Werewolf Recruitment" Thread should be created? This same thread could be reused for each recruitment. I say this as I'm slightly confused about where to ask to be in the next game.

Don't worry tgwbs, the different threads might confuse you initially but rest assured that they are both scoured for participants. You are definitely in the next game, sir.

Holby, let me explain what I did (confession). When they decided to lynch Nimmy, they did it very quickly, thus making the day very short. I had come onto the internet anticipating a whole day's worth of detective work, and I didn't realise that Saucy had already started a night. Well, I did notice, it's just that it didn't register with me that I couldn't discuss anything on the thread! I promptly posted when I should have been 'sleeping' or, as it happened, being devoured by werewolves (that poor rich merchant).

We deleted the posts but that's what I was talking about. And let that be a warning to everyone else: ALWAYS check whether it's day or night!
