Survivor: Surviving the Minor Works - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Bêthberry · 05-27-2006, 06:05 PM

I'd be interested in playing a Mega-Survivor game or an Orc game, but that Barrow Downs game just sounds to me like too much work. And I've never been a rep-hog anyway.

I agree with Formy (Does anyone have any idea how many times I initially type out that nick as 'Foamy'?

) that the fun point of these survivor games are their ease. Yeah, definitely put me 'down' for games lite.

Oh, and, yeah, about modding it:

By the way, I can't resist posting this little snippet about Garm, that I found in one of davem's links to Norse mythology:

And we all thought he was just a widdle old Gram-ma.

I feel not unlike Raymond of Toulouse when offered the crown of Jerusalem.

Ahem. If I'm to do it, you'll have to wait for a sec for it to get started. Till at least Jun 10th when my exams are over...

I'm still hoping a volunteer will jump into the breach. I think for instance that Kuru would make a brilliant mod, and, were she not far too good for it, I'd suggest Lalaith in the quiver of an eyelash.

Have you considered PM'ing them with your proposition?

I'll help you if you need it. Mega-Survivor sounds interesting, at least more interesting than BD Survivor.

Well, in case you, or any other potential mods are wondering what this entails... it's simple: you have to be on every day (or as close thereto as you may), at approximately the same time, to count all the votes, post who's being evicted, and preferably write up something short and funny about that eviction (this last is optional). The list of candidates, the rules, and all other formal arrangment will be provided by the College of Moderators Emeritus, unless they should choose to delegate that authority to their approved Mod.

It's work, don't let the apparent easiness of the job fool you there. It's not HARD work. Such hardness as I had when I did it was my own silly doing. But it is a regular commitment- day in and day out. And you need a level head on your shoulders and as great a lack of partiality as you can contrive.

So basically I just show up to work everyday and tally votes, refusing bad reasons?
