If the deadline is late night U.S. time, I will end up having to cast my vote early, as it's not likely I'll be able to get online so early in the morning that I'll be able to catch up with reading previous posts and arguments and making my decision - at approximately 6 am!

However, if others realize the time difference and take it into account when drawing their own conclusions, and if we have 24 hours each for day and night, I suppose it should work out. Perhaps we should do a time zone check - I'm in EDT, which is GMT + 2, until the end of this month.

My profession has already been logged. I look forward to the game with a bit of trepidation, as I'm a newbie to this. I hope to survive long enough to enjoy playing with all of you!

Great game! I'm still wondering how my name ended up on that list.

Well, I'm on GMT+1, but I'm already used to being forced to cast an early vote. I suppose 2 AM would work best for me, but any time is fine. Though, like Estelyn, 12AM or 1AM would force me to vote extremely early, since I'm physically unable to get up before 7 in the morning.

As for professions, I will be a merchant selling love potions. Can't guarantee they'll work, though.

8AM EDT would be best for me, but it doesn't matter hugely - I'll just post my vote early if I must.

If we are doing a time zone check like Estelyn wanted I am in Mountain time which is 2 hours behind Eatern Time

I'm in EST with phantom, any time is good for me. I may have to vote earlier on Thursdays and Fridays, but any time is good.

Come to think of it, I've thought hard and dredged up my appalling Maths skills and 8:00 AM EST would be best, if poss...

Unless he's recently taken leave of Omaha, tp's not on EST. He's just using it. Not that it really matters... Can't wait to start!

Looking forward to the game; it should be a lot of fun.

I will be a Mercenary. I'm hiding out in [Insert name of Village] because I accepted gold from King Thingol to fight for him, and I never did. I'm wanted dead or alive.

I'll be safe here, right?

Dwarves and Thingolites don't get on very well, so of course.

Which brings me to another thing. This game should be set in Middle Earth. I'm not going to bother giving any reasoning, I know the awesomeness of the phantom will shine through on this.
