Haha.. Saturday day I won't be on as much as I'd like to (though I'm sure it would be pleanty for a normal person. Pssh... whats that?!) I'm going to be at a baby shower and working on a photography project.

However, as stated before, you'll probably hear plenty from me.

What on earth is a baby shower? Sounds like that evian advert....... Or an alternative baptism with a lot more water...........

I think the shower is more metaphoric, Mith. When someone is going to have a baby you go to this party and give the mother presents, like toasters and baby clothes, and she pretends to like them. Everyone ooh's and aah's and it's very cute. What do you lot call them in England?

May I ask who's moding the next game? Or the next? I would really love to try or at least co-mod.

if anyone needs me for the current WWJ game, PM me because i look at those first whenever i go on the downs

also Valier, we don't start planning the next game till the current one is over so just hold on to your seat, but you should be able to mod sooner or later.

Ok, I have one thing to clear up. Sleepy has been moved to the front of the list. Yay or nay? If nay, is it Kitanna who should be modding or Mith? I would wait until this game is over, but I'd rather have everything cleared up ahead of time.

Well, whoever was next on the list would have had to wait another game if Sleepy had been around anyway, right? It won't hurt if we just let him take the next game. He can't help external circumstances and all. At least he was willing to step down and let Glirdan take over when he couldn't fill in.

Looks like I've been drafted. Hey, everybody.

I'll be honest - I do not like the mythomaniac. It can tip the balance to far to one side or the other.

The cursed is interesting if usually useless. Of the two I would definitely prefer this role.

I'm hoping to get enough people so this game can start on Sunday the 12 or Monday the 13, that way it will be finished before I leave for spring break. I'm PMing a few people to see if they're up for the game, so hopefully all goes well.

Warding off the bad fairies..

Oh thanks Abercrombie .. well we don't have them. I know it is superstitious but many of us here think it is unlucky to buy gift for a baby before it had safely arrived.

I feel it would tempt fate and would feel so dreadful if anything happened to the child.

On the whole we give presents & flowers once the child is born and you know what it is.... However at work they tend to give tokens or babyclothes when someone goes on maternity leave.

For all surviving WWJ players... Please don't take what I said about the Cursed or any gender confusions as evidence!! I was in a rush last night and that post wasn't up to my normal rates. And forgive me Valier for the gender mistake. And don't use that as evidence either!!

So, whenever the next game starts, sign me up! I had great fun, and I'd love to play again. I'll stay in the junior set till I'm a bit more confident in my skills.


Edit: Sorry, sorry....
