I know I've double posted a lot, but I'd rather not expand my previous post thanks. And if you need to double post, please feel free to do so.

So far, the players are:

Hiriel- Deaf librarian
Rune Son of Bjarne- Bailif
WaynetheGoblin- Babysitter
Eonwe- Shady, black market guy who has deals with Dwarves
Thinlomien- Healer
The Only Real Estel- Peach Cobbler maker
Malkatoj- Drunk Fencer
Kitanna- Village Hermit
Sleepy Ranger- Innkeeper
Bergil
Gurthang
Feanor of the Peredhil- Village Incomniac

I might have Folwren in it to. If I don't get a definte answer by tomorrow from her and Lhuna by the first time I come on, I'll figure out the roles tomorrow, send them out and possibly start the game tomorrow night at around 10:30pm Eastern Time. If you don't have your role in by then, I'll pick one for you.

*runs up panting*

Alright, here I am! Blamed computer doesn't move very fast and it's awful hard work lugging it behind me, but I'm here.

I'll play a male (

) and my name's Jack in this game. Won't answer to anything else. And I'm the Blacksmith/Farrier. If I'm not at my smithy, I'm with my trusty horse, Blakeney - a tall, slender, very handsome bay (brown with black highlights and with black mane and tail). Broke him myself, I did.

Looking forward to it, everyone.

Cool. I think we'll be starting by tomorrow night. How's that for everyone?

For those who don't know who this game works, I'll explain how you win. I'll also repost some of this stuff once the game gets started.

If you're a villager, you win once the Wolves have all been found and lynched.
If you're a wolf, you'll win once the number of villagers is equal to the amount of wolves left. Example, if all three wolves are alive still at the end and there are three villagers, the Wolves will win and can move out into the open.

Other rules we need to discuss, do we want to allow double lynches? I will not have mass lynchings and also nonretractable votes (can't take back your vote once you've voted.) As for the doulbe lynchings, for those newbies out there, a double lynch is when you have the same amount of votes for two people. Do we want to allow this? If there are any more questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Another thing, try to incorporate your occupation into the actual game. For those of you who have played an RPG and would like to play the game as an RPG like we did on the first day for WW X, feel free to do so.

BTW, I still need a role from Bergil and Gurthang. If I don't have your roles by tomorrow, I'll make up one for you myself, and it might be something stupid.

From my own personal (non-Barrow-Downs) experience, double lynchings are annoying and pointless. It's nice for the werewolves, but more often than not, villagers die these days. However, from what I've read in other BD games, people are more active so there's more of a reason to lynch people, instead of just going on and making up something stupid.

I'm against them, but not strongly. Do what you will.

Glirdan · 09-30-2005, 08:46 PM

On second thought, I think I'll send out the roles tonight. 13 is a good number. We'll go with that. Expect to start tomorrow by 10:30 pm Eastern time. I will, however give Gurthang and Bergil a chance to decide what occupation they would like. If you guys don't have it in by at least 9:00pm Eastern tomorrow, I'll decide your occupation for you.

The players with their roles are (alphabetically):

Bergil- Busker
Eonwe- shady black market type guy who has deals with Dwarves
Feanor of the Peredhil- Village Insomniac
Folwren- wants to be known as Jack, Blacksmith/Farrier, horse named Blakeney
Gurthang-
Hiriel- Deaf Librarian
Kitanna- Village Hermit
Malkatoj- Drunk Fencer
Rune Son of Bjarne- Bailiff
Sleepy Ranger- Innkeeper
The Only Real Estel- Peach Cobbler maker
Thinlomien- Healer
WaynetheGoblin- Babysitter

BTW, Gurthang and Bergil, you can't take town poet as an occupation. That's mine.

Towns name- Fwedawick

I'll be starting a new thread for the game. It will be called "WWJ I- A New Saga, A New Beginning...Or Is It!?!?!?"

~Rules~

- Nonretractable votes. Once you vote, no going back.
- We won't have double lynchings. If a tie occurs, the person who got the first vote will be lynched
-If you don't post at least within a 2 Day period, you'll be lynched.
- No talking about the game in other threads, even when you're dead. And no PMimg about either unless you're the Wolves. If you're a dead wolf, you're dead. No PMing the other Wolves about the game.

Everybody got that? I'll be sending out the roles shortly.

Glirdan · 10-01-2005, 07:01 AM

On second thought, I'll give them until say 1:00 pm Eastern Time. That way, I can get the game started and the Wolves can PM each other. I'll be posting my death at 10:30pm.

Got a question for Saucy or any of the other previous mods. Does the Seer dream about someone the night that the mod dies?
