Tol-in-Gaurhoth CXV: On the Borders of Mirkwood Planning Thread

[Shastanis Althreduin]

I've thoughts, but not at 4 am.

Wilwa! Nilp! Shasta!



There is a good size to get more underway I'll post an updated draft of the roles and rules in the next few days. With a tentative start set sometime next week, or perhaps the week after.

Boro, if there's just one day in the middle of the game when you can't make it to the deadline, I don't think that's a problem. I'm sure there has to be one 'downs ww player who can't/ doesn't want to play but would happily be your one time substitute mod and start the Day/Night if you leave them instructions.

I like the Beast Hunter; I'm not a big fan of the medium/representative thing to be entirely honest but that's just a personal preference - I think it would work nicely with this array of rules though.

As for the Nightmare wolf, I need to think about it a bit. My original fear was that we'd have a game where every Day some ordo claims to have been haunted and thus every Day the wolves have to decide whether they counter claim and put themselves in the spotlight or let it slip past and let the village have a "known innocent". That would really suck for the wolves. But the updated rules already look a lot more balanced.

I also think it would be interesting if the Nightmare wolf was a specific wolf and the wolves would need to strategize around sacrificing them.

PS. Wilwa and Nilp

Yeah, I'm in.

Any chance I can request a slightly later deadline, say 10 pm GMT?

Welcome. And yes that was actually the time I was figuring on setting it, since it seems to be around then that works the best for everyone.

Except for our friends in the Phillipines ...but perhaps 6am is a little more manageable?

I updated a lot of the voting and general rules/Medium. I will be away for a bit today, but will get the rest of the specific roles set out later

[Boromir88]

Ok the first post on the thread has been updated with everything we discussed.

If I missed anything let me know.

I think we'll begin Night 1 either June 3rd or 4th. Deadline for both threads will be 10 pm GMT (6pm EST)

I think there may be 1 or 2 more who possibly decide to sign up. So, Huey and Kath if you decide that it's not too large of a village for you there's definitely room to join. Let me know!

[Kath]

I'm happy to join! Just didn't want to take someone else's spot.

Speaking for myself and not for another mouse-like being, I'm fine with any time. My circadian cycle is all messed up anyway, haha...

Anyway, a bit of digression. Well, probably an above-average amount. Mere hours after I joined, this game/png-gambling simulator I'm playing suddenly had an event involving Werewolf. Reality is a badly-written stage play, I swear...

(It also has Phantom. )

Sorry to be a party pooper, but I am not actually sure if I will be able to join this next game, especially with a big village. I will have to see how crazy my life is right before we start. Boro, could you please put me back under a questionmark?
