Admin thread for WW: LXXXV - The Lost Philosophers of Maiar - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Nogrod · 12-27-2010, 11:32 AM

The game thread with a "teaser-trailer" is on and can be found from here. The rules and stuff will be posted there hopefully tomorrow (I have lost electricity from my home so I can't do anything involving electrical instruments this evening at home). Unless strong protests appear we'll begin around New Year - with prolonged N1 & D1.

The "occupations" have been updated so far. Come up with them all you haven't done that thus far. It is not mandatory, but it might help me with the narrations (and you with the banter in the early stages of D1).

If we count all the "maybe's" as in, we'd now have 18 players. That would mean three gifteds (seer, ranger, hunter), three wolves and a cobbler. If we get to twenty I'll introduce a fourth wolf.

The question concerning this is the following: if we have four wolves, should they have double kills as long as they are four, or not? I'm initially against the double-Night-kills but will be persuaded if the majority thinks it a good idea.

Lately I haven't had the ability and time to play the games as I'd like to, which is depressing as it feels like a big let down. However, if you need a fresh and able corpse Nog, sign me up, and I shall do my best. However, if you're already set at the player list, you can just pretend this post does not exist.

No double kills please!

Valier · 12-27-2010, 08:37 PM

ummm how about for a occupation...a handmaiden of Yavanna, I collect the morning dew from the petals of flowers.

I also say no double kills!!

Rikae · 12-27-2010, 09:47 PM

Yes to double kills, since I'm sure you'll make me a wolf...

I'd be in favour of double-kills if we end up with more than twenty players, but otherwise, not. I think the Cobbler helps balance things out.

Can't very well miss this, can I? Sign me up if there's still room! As for my field of expertise - I typed "little green" to Google image search for inspiration. Consequently I'll be in charge of aliens, hummingbirds and farming.
