Alright, well here are two lists, perhaps they can be compiled somehow, to make it the fairest:

In order of when they asked (please do correct me if this is wrong)
Legate
Nogrod
Brinniel
Wilwa
Gwath
Mnemo
Lari
Eonwe


Those who never have (again, correct me if I'm wrong): Mnemo, Gwath, Lari, Eonwe
The rest who have modded (in order from longest time ago to most recent, and # of times modded)
Wilwa (back in 05ish/06ish, once)
Legate (03/08, twice)
Nogrod (05/08, thrice)
Brinniel (06/08, once)

So I don't exactly know what that makes. I know there's also available times to be considered. But there seems to be a consensus that Legate is next.

Wow, this is kinda complicated, hahaha.

I'm completely flexible as to when I would hold my game. I'm planning on doing a classic game (basic rules; narrationally driven) so I'd prefer to hold it after someone else has done something a bit more complicated.

Well, as for me... not that the coming time won't be without running my game in the middle of an end-of-semester rush but, I have done it once and I can do it again....

If some people who haven't modded yet desperately wanted to, though, I could let them... but then, this may be one chance for me to mod for some time to come... so perhaps I'd like to use it.

But I am still open to negotiations. The last word has not been said yet.

Right you are.

I can't talk on behalf of Legate but with me you can rest assured I'm ready to make a deal with anyone who has not modded a game or with those (well, you Wilwa) who has only modded a game a long time ago.

I'm in no hurry but would like to host a game in some nearish future (those limitations I talked about in my last post being rather sticky) meaning something like between now and the next Christmas... or anything.

Modding is fun.

Hmm, all right, now I would perhaps like to ask one question here... The thing is, it is possible that I may be really very busy by the time when I should mod my game, and so I am sort of becoming less and less sure of whether it's a good idea for me to mod right now.

My question would be, if there is anybody (wilwa? Nogrod? Brinn? Mnemo? Anybody?) who would be willing to mod now, instead of me. Would there be any volunteers?

If there are no objections I would like to. From July to mid August I'll be too busy with my summer course, so this would be perfect timing for me.

But anyone who asked before me is free to go first.

I'm good with Wilwa modding the next one (even if I have to skip that game myself due to end-of-semester madness).

During the summer I know some people are very hard to catch and others will have all the time in their hands. But we might discuss that Legate - which one of us goes for the next after that or do we pass our turn to someone who has not modded... like Mnemo.

I'm all ready to go, so if there are no objections I can have my admin thread up, for WW LXI: Grimm Tales (a little teaser ), either later tonight or Saturday morning. Is that good with everyone? The actual game I'm hoping to have started late next week or early into the week after.

Wilwa, I think you may go on as no one has protested to your modding and my game's officially over.

(PS. I'm sad I can't play because of silly Uni entrance exams but I will probably be following the game at least a little!)

For sure - I officially delegate my post to you, and I think whoever might have wanted to object would have already done so.

Fresh blood is always welcome, Annunfuiniel.

I'm certainly ready for a game and don't want to wait 'til August.

These next few weeks are exactly when I won't be able to mod or play, but after that I may be able to (then again I'd like to mod quite a large game, so its probably better if I wait a bit).

Why thanks Eomer....or wait..... on second thought, you make that sound a bit eerie.

Nice to meet you too, Nogrod!

So, I need to do some more reading to get a better picture on how these games work. But looks mighty interesting! And piracy?? Arrrrr, ahoy and yo ho ho!! Sounds great!

The admin thread is up!

I automatically signed up those who showed obvious interest in joining the game on this thread. So please let me know if you aren't playing after all so I can remove you from the list. Thanks!
