Paper Telephone. - Page 29 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Nogrod · 03-23-2009, 02:07 PM

I'm definitively in!

And if no-one else will do it, I can mod this one. But anyone else wishing to mod this, please come to the fore as I have no overwhelming passion for modding...

Hookbill the Goomba · 03-25-2009, 06:25 AM

Thanks Mr Nogrod! Your services will be rewarded with vast quantities of soil.

Here's the list of sign-up-ers

(Nogrod)
TheGreatElvenWarrior
Laurinquë
wilwarin538
Eönwë
Hookbill
Legate
Mnemosyne
Isabellkya

Keep signing up, folks.

Nogrod · 03-30-2009, 03:37 PM

Well, I know Lommy and Aganzir are in Portugal and they will probably attend anyway. It will just take a few days they're back with the internet.

Anyway, a few more people in, please!

PS. Do I take it you Hookbill will take this round or are you seriously offering me a squaremile or two somewhere?

Well, I was thinking of getting a massive skip full of soil delivered to your house. You seen, I don't have time for modding, mainly because sourcing a massive skip and some soil is taking up most of my day.

So you have time for taking part then. I'll add you to the list.

(Oh, you were there already..., sorry)

The list of players:

TheGreatElvenWarrior
Laurinquë
wilwarin538
Eönwë
Hookbill
Legate
Mnemosyne
Isabellkya
Oddwen

A double-round I think - and a few more to fit in.

Oddwen · 03-30-2009, 09:48 PM

I'll go.

Thinlómien · 04-03-2009, 05:52 AM

*steals Nogrod's list and scribbles own name in the end*

TheGreatElvenWarrior
Laurinquë
wilwarin538

Right you are sir.

By the way Greenie I love your sig.

Nogrod · 04-03-2009, 06:10 PM

Okay we have twelve participants right now - and that is probably quite enough for a decent double round... Let's say we give a couple of days to the "late-awakers" and then we begin?

TheGreatElvenWarrior
Laurinquë
wilwarin538
Eönwë
Hookbill
Legate
Mnemosyne
Isabellkya
Oddwen
Lommy
Greenie
Aganzir

Anyone wishing to join, please do it! This is no art-competition where only the best can apply but more like fun we all celebrate with each other.

A couple of days to brave yourselves to get involved in a lots of fun... and then it will be too late - this time.

Brinniel · 04-05-2009, 12:01 AM

I was trying to debate whether I'll have enough time, but meh. I'll do it. I notice this moves at fairly slow pace, so there's a chance I'll be finished with my most stressful projects by the time it's my turn to draw anyway.

You'll be the lucky number 13!

I'll start this later today. If someone still wants to join s/he has a chance to do so for a couple of days still as it will take time for the first round to complete itself.

Nogrod · 04-05-2009, 01:24 PM

Okay and here we go!

Any people wishing to join are still welcome for a few days but you would do well to come in pairs...

Formendacil · 04-05-2009, 09:54 PM

If you need to pair off the lucky #13, I'm game for another go at this.

Nogrod · 04-06-2009, 04:46 AM

Consider yourself in Form. And welcome.

But in fact we would be much better off with an uneven number of participants. So anyone wishing to join please come forwards!

I'll put you into the list within a few days Form, but I'll first wait if someone still joins and makes making the list a bit easier.

Beregond · 04-06-2009, 09:51 PM

I think I'll join - in last-minute fashion! By the time the call comes I may have some time. Got room for a lucky 13th?

Nogrod · 04-07-2009, 01:11 AM

The list has been updated now.

Welcome Beregond!

Beregond · 04-07-2009, 09:26 AM

Thanks! I always hate to miss these.

Laurinquë · 04-11-2009, 07:44 AM

Ah! Completion of paper telephone drawing has been achieved! And it's 5:42 am!

Nogrod · 04-11-2009, 09:57 AM

Naz · 04-14-2009, 01:29 PM

Ahhh, where have i been? (pffff, no one cares~)

Can i get in on the next round, by any chance....?

Aganzir · 04-14-2009, 01:34 PM

It's almost two weeks since Eönwë was last online...

Nogrod · 04-14-2009, 01:54 PM

If he doesn't appear in a few days would you Naz take his place?

Let's wait for a day or two anyway... but not indefinitively.

Nogrod · 04-16-2009, 01:53 PM

I sent a PM to Naz three days ago asking if she would take Eönwë's place. She hasn't received the PM (and neither has Eönwë). If neither of them answers in a day or two I'll send Wilwa's sentence to Hookbill and modify the lists accordingly (the order in which you write and draw will then turn upside down with those who have not done anything yet).

In that case I hope we'd get either of them or someone else to take one place in the end of the list to make the number of participants remain uneven as that is the easiest way to control this thing.

So thumbs up!

And if anyone knows either of them outside the 'Downs could you please ask them (Naz or Eönwë) to take contact?

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 04-17-2009, 02:58 PM

Maybe they died!

Nogrod · 04-17-2009, 04:46 PM

I'll send the sentence to Hookbill in something like 24 hours (little less I presume) unless Naz or Eönwë come around before that.

Nogrod · 04-19-2009, 01:56 PM

Okay. Here's the new list.

Eönwë, your PM box was full but here's the deal: you're after Legate eg. pretty soon (hopefully). No major changes were required...

Okay. As Eönwë seems to have logged out without seeing this thread and I need to go to sleep, I'm passing this forwards and let's hope he will get to the thread soon enough as to get in the fray soon enough...

So Legate you will be called in a moment!

Eönwë · 04-23-2009, 04:50 PM

Ok, the call has continued...

Thinlómien · 05-08-2009, 08:51 AM

Sorry to have taken so long! But I'm finally done and I will try to urge Greenie make the sentence today.

Aganzir · 05-08-2009, 08:57 AM

Urgh does that mean I have to get my scanner fixed...

When the call comes to me again, I need to get mine fixed too!

Eönwë · 05-11-2009, 02:44 PM

So what's the latest news?

Thinlómien · 05-11-2009, 02:57 PM

I guess Greenie still has it. I tried to make her do it but she always just said "soon". I can try to make her do it tomorrow!

Nogrod · 05-12-2009, 12:12 PM

Greenie has had her theater-production's premiere yesterday and they will have shows for a few days to come.

But then again, it's just a sentence, so she should be able to do it.

Keep up the pressure Lommy!

Thinlómien · 05-12-2009, 12:39 PM

She saw this thread from behind my shoulder and said "oh crap I still have it! I had forgotten... I'll do it today still." So you may expect it soon.

Nogrod · 05-12-2009, 01:26 PM

So get your scanner ready Aganzir!

Or try the Paint which we less gifted use...

Thinlómien · 05-24-2009, 04:15 PM

Where are we going? I'm beginning to suspect this won't get ready before September...

(Yes I'm perfectly aware I had the call for a week last time!

) Ah, everybody just keep up the good job and be a bit quicker than I was.

Nogrod · 05-27-2009, 03:53 PM

Anyone heard anything of Brinn lately? I sent her Agan's picture like two weeks ago... (Okay, it was the 19th of May, but anyway.)

You "Facebookers" could remind her about it?

Aganzir · 05-27-2009, 03:58 PM

I wrote on her wall on Facebook.

(I think you could get an account there too, though.

)
