Welcome everybody! I'm very happy to see you all here.
 I think we basically have enough people to start already, but I'll keep the signups open for a couple of more days and do my best to kick this off during the weekend. So mentally prepare to start by next week and keep an eye on your PMs. It might not be a bad idea to subscribe to email notifications of PMs if you don't check the 'Downs daily! Current player list: Lommy (mod?) G55 Rune Sally Pitchwife Oddwen Urwen Kath Huinesoron Legate

I'd like to sign up for this round, please! I suppose quarantine gives us all an excuse to hang out in the Downs!

Also taking Nogrod and A Little Green's text message signups and Formendacil's from Facebook, so now we certainly have enough people. Starting tomorrow sometime during the European day, sign ups still open until then! I will still randomise the order of the players, so don't make any conclusions based on your placement on the current list. And let's try to keep it in the good old max 3 days per person!

Can't wait to get going, and who knows, we might have a game that can be concluded in less than 2 months.

 I had forgotten how long these games actually take... well, at least did take. Let's see if the quarantine makes people faster to react? Good to see you all for long time!

Also a heads-up that if you use the email notifications, check that your email doesn't treat them as spam. I could have sent Pitch's sentence on half a day earlier if I hadn't blindly trusted gmail.  But lesson learnt, shouldn't happen again!

Argh! With all the werewolf madness I missed the reveal!
Seriously, Lommy, what was with that opening sentence?! Also I have to admit, because both you and Legate have mentioned it, I traced that horse! I think Nog's warrior rodent is brilliant but poor Shadowfax. From a king among horses to, well, a rat. It took me so many reads of G55's sentence to understand why Form's picture had a ruler in it ... Lommy I adore your picture but you definitely started a nudity trend - this is meant to be a family friendly forum! Greenie I am deeply concerned about what has happened to you over lockdown. Any other odd scenes around your house you'd like to share? Overall a great Paper Telephone! Thank you for modding, Lommy, and I would absolutely be up for another round.

There were some really impressive pieces this time, especially Lommy, Pitchwife and Baranduin's gorgeous pictures. Legate's long-suffering David and Rune's armed to the teeth -pun also caused giggles.
