Seeing such a small number is rather depressing, but what else can you do? The only solution I can think of to give everyone double roles. Haha...that'd be interesting (not to mention confusing).

Oops, I keep forgetting about my bio. I'll get to work on that right away, Legate.

Hehe, double roles. That seems like a fun idea!

No way.

One last thing to add. We have agreed that roleplaying will be compulsory in this game (and who does not like it, he should have said earlier - there was plenty time to do it). This means, you post in-character, but from a second-person point of view, i.e. describing what your character does and says, like

Legate of Amon Lanc stepped forward. "I did not know he was innocent!" he shouted at Legate of Amon Rûdh.

In last minute retraction frays, you may eventually skip it and post just votes (but it will be nicer to and maybe it will help you not to end in these last minute frays).

AND, since we are doing this, you should leave the smilies and your signatures out of the posts. With the signatures, you can either set it in your profile (in the "Options"), or you may check it individually at each post you make (it's down there under the "Addittional Options", "SHOW YOUR SIGNATURE", so you just un-check the box).

The roles will be sent out shortly...

From then on, no posting on this thread except for apologies for not participating due to RL reasons or game rules questions.

The night falls down...

So I managed it before the deadline... to just say I'm back and all in for the adventures of the outlaws.

With the roleplaying-element in I think a shorter game is preferable anyhow.

See you in-game then fellows!

1. Please apologies to everyone, I have to send yet the remaining PMs thus the start will be a few minutes later than announced. (But that has no effect on tomorrow's start).

2. Mith: Shortly? Nothing wrong if you still play with us, I hope? If yes, then turn invisible

Okay, so just to emphasise, from now no other posting on this thread, except for absence explanations or general rules questions. If you have any personal questions, please feel free to PM me.

I also hope you are all in invisible mode now.

Day 1 starts tomorrow precisely at 8 PM GMT.
