This might be a cunning plot on my part because I'm a baddy...or misguided idiocy because I am a useless ordo.

Maybe that's why I hate that role so much...I'm such a natural at it.

*sound of a barrow-door creaking*

So, if this is getting revived *glances at a corpse in the corner of the barrow, then waves hand dismissively* I mean if the game happens, I wouldn't mind joining in. It's been quite a while.

Lommy!!! Legate!!! Where've you been?

Now, really, what is to be done? Do you lot think we should try recruiting from some of the other sub-forums? There are several posters in the "Books" and "Movies" sections whom it would be a real pleasure to l̶y̶n̶c̶h̶ introduce to the game.

Dead. I mean, alive, probably. But great to see you again, too, Nerwen

If anyone is recruitable, that would be nice! Otherwise, we have been also thinking about doing a bit of a recruiting campaign via other channels (and of course some Nogrods etc can be reached quite easily by us). So let's get to it and hope to get some nice amount of folk...

So I've been kind of craving werewolf ever since Greenie and I found an article called Here's What Would Happen To You In A Horror Movie Based On Your Myers-Briggs Personality Type* and the discussion escalated into werewolf. However real life is busy... so can I sign up as a maybe, on condition that the game is fairly small and we start soon-ish? It looks super interesting!

*According to it, I'm the twisted authority figure in the horror movie - or the werewolf game: "They aren’t the actual killer but they’re nonetheless shot in the name of justice by a vigilante ISTJ who’s had enough."

Ha, mine was "The INTJ isn’t the actual killer but they’re the person everyone suspects to be the killer from the get-go. They’re murdered in an anxious fit by the ESFP, who spends the rest of the movie crying into the INFJ’s arms over their misguided crime of passion."

Pretty spot on.

Away. Glad to be back though!

Hmm, if anyone knows the newbies at all could try to coax them by PM? Should be fun.

I tried to poke Sally on facebook about the game, so far no reply. I think a round of pestering newbies and recruiting lazy old members on facebook should give us enugh players to start.

I don't know what my Myers-Briggs personality type is, so I did an online quiz for that and got ENFJ:

"The ENFJ assumes a natural leadership role in every horror movie, due to their inhuman ability to calm others down during a crisis. They are unlikely to die, but their love interest definitely will. The leader’s love interest is never, ever safe."

So in Werewolf... I am the phantom?


Anyways, there's no way I can play now with the gazillion things I have to do, but I volunteer for any role play filler role or random cannon fodder.

No actually, the phantom is the one who will die in a scheme of their own making.

I should probably start a new thread for this.
