I'm impartial to real or Downs time. But also I may or may not be able to make every voting deadline (I'll still vote everyday just maybe a few hours before deadline). I work until about twenty minutes before the deadline so if I do make it home by voting time (which I should) it'll be to cast a vote and make few comments. Because of work I can be on a large part of the beginning of days, but will be rather sparse the second half. Hopefully this isn't going to cause a huge problem in the game.

It is possible the 'Downs time wanders a long way from the real time. It has been deviating from the "real time" with more than an hour before so we can't count on it.
But all the votes posted within the 'Downs time will be counted as long as the difference stays in this three-four minutes like it is now. You are all intelligent people and understand when there is a difference of an hour between the 'Downs time and the time you actually live. So the Deadline will be 11PM GMT 'Downs time for now but if the 'Downs time starts to go on it's own we'll be making a new decision. If this ruling is to be changed (the 'Downs time freaks out) I will inform you about the new ruling (making it strict real time) both here and in the game thread. So untill further notice the 'Downs time will do. Although I still think the real time is better as it comes to you automatically, is seen all the time on your screen and is not dependent of your refreshing the page everytime just to check it... I must admit that just like a few here have said I have never myself even checked the "'Downs time" as it is so uncomfortably at the end of the page and requires constant refreshing to be of any help. PS. Another matter: Just to make it clear. I have systematically referred to anyone unknown in this discussion thread as well as in the game thread by "she" from the very beginning. And I will continue doing so. There will neither be hints in the narrations. They are narrations that have a logic of their own.

Sorry! Painful lack of internet all day, as I forgot to grab my laptop on the way to work. Fixed all the problems (except Morm's occupation....*shifty eyes*) and here's the new and improved link (which I'll also PM to Noggie in case he still wants it).

I just wanted to let everyone know that, as mentioned a little earlier, I'm in the process of moving. As part of that, I still don't have internet at my new place, which means that access will be limited to coffee shops with WiFi until that's taken care of and my presence may be somewhat erratic until Saturday. Sorry about that.

Your point is a valid one and the committee will take it under consideration.

Gomen nasai!
I had a funny conversation when I got home (at about 9pm) last night.
'Did you know it was DAY 1 today?' said the Lhunatic. 'Oh, crap,' said I. Sorry for not showing up yesterDAY, it won't happen again.

I thought at first that this said "modified", which is actually more sinister than "modfired." It has a 1984 ring to it.

Just giving notice
I have a school meeting tomorrow, so I will have difficulty posting on Day 2.

I don't want to be modified - I mean modfired - so I'll assure you that my no vote yesterDay will not happen again...I hope. So sorry.

I'm sorry about yesterDay (as seems to be theme of the last few posts). I came down with something just shy of a migraine midafternoon and ended up asleep long before and right through the deadline. I don't know what it is about werewolf games but I always seem to come down with something on Day 1. Ah well, it's over now, I'll try my best not to miss any more!

Oh wow. I am blindingly self-absorbed. 1987 is when I was born. Thanks, I better change that.

I just remembered that I'll be away for probably most of Day2 because of a very unofficial meeting, I'll try to miss it as well as I can, but I doubt that will work.

It looks like I will only be around briefly tomorrow morning early (ie just around 8am GMT) and then I hope to be back again just before voting deadline.
Sorry about that, I just worked out my schedule tomorrow and realised how little time I'd have online.

I'm not going to be around for about three hours right around the deadline; I have a wedding to go to, so I have to vote a bit early.

Attention:
Attention: (Yes, that was necessary.) This is Mr. Roa, and I regret to announce that Roa is a tad bit under the weather, and will not likely be posting tonight. She hopes to be around before the Day ends, but the blasted kids at work seem to have brought her a welcoming present of illness and disease. Roa: "They're worse than rats." Ahem. Yes, well, I think we're all aware of that. More importantly, I think this is all just an overly elaborate scheme of hers to not get lynched, infecting herself with children's germinology to play the sympathy vote, but I don't know. That's just me. Believe you me, I have a far greater knowledge of just how evil and subversive she can be than all of you (likely) placed together and boiled into concentrated Roa-knowledge. *has pillow throw at him* I must go. Evidently, she requires some sort of "care" or "loving." I don't understand it.

Wow. Thank you, Mister Roa. Do you want to join the Downs?
Anyway, expect (even more) diminished activity from me toDay. It's a Saturday, and Saturday's are always crazy. |

Hmmm... does this mean we can lynch Mr. Roa?
Rest up, Roa! Hope you get to feeling better.

The opposite from me, though I'll be in the parking lot at odd intervals to make sure my battery's nice and charged.
Thanks for the heads-up, erm....Mister Roa. (That sounds weird....hehe) Tell her we all hope she feels better soon! Well, all of us except Phantom, that is.

Anyways, was going to come in here and say, "Sorry people, have work tomorrow", but I guess not. First of all, love to thank the clairvoyant wolves for knowing this. It's either an appreciation for the hard work I do for canines, or just because of the innocent attraction, but I think I can safely say, its rather considerate. Quote:
I agree, Mr. Roa should join sometime. Then, he should join WW with Roa. Think of the Roa to Phantom team matches then. Anyways, thanks to everyone. I'll be watching and waiting to give out some rep in the end of course. ~ Ka

The only thing I did was say I'd text Sally the lynch result at the deadline since she was going to be away from her computer. And made a joke about Nog swearing under his breath in Finnish every time someone makes a pseudo division sign vote. If a village can't prevail without cheating they don't deserve to win, that's always been my thought, whichever side I (used to) be on. (Sorry, I just don't want to be banned from future WW -- but 'Downers make up 90% of my friends so it's kind of hard to avoid them completely and totally.)

I trust everyone to not 'cheat.' I certainly do not think of either you or Sally in such a way. Mostly I feel the problem is specifically bringing up the deceased in such a way in the game...
< / 'chatting' > Edit: Hmm. I don't mean like 'it breaks the mood' or anything. That's silly. Ah well, explaining is for another time... |

I understand Di and feel no cheating has been engaged in, my point was that names of the dead should not be brought up in the manner they were and the dead should not be posting on the thread. This can call into question the integrity was the point.

yeah, sorry about that. Di's on my facebook, so it was just easier for her to get my number off there then to PM it to Roa (who very kindly offered her services). I felt it more fair than PMing, which no one but the two of us could verify. That and it felt slightly more fair (though since she was a gifted I dunno how I reasoned that) that I get my info from a dead player than a live one, as well....I trust the dead to not slant things in any way, especially Di. *kind of feels like an idiot now, but it happens * Now, while I still have a bit, back off to the game!

I regret to inform you...
Due to time constraints and a severe lack of internet, I will have to leave the game. This is the end. Goodbye.
(no, not forever. Probably just until I get back to school.) So have fun without me, if indeed you can.

We'll miss you Cabbie; you did really well while you were alive despite your inability to participate more. Play with you again in the fall, kiddo.

I'm sorry we ever fought over Aganzir; she wasn't worth it. I'll think of you when I'm robbing the lords and ladies fine out on the king's highway, little brother.

I regret to inform you that . . .
Lhuna has internet troubles in her boarding house.
If you want, I can post as her. But I reckon it's unethical for the dead to possess the living, haha. She may be able to post tomorrow, though. I think.

I really do not want to be doing this again - I must be going for a record or something! - but I would like to request to be modfired. Since classes started (last Tuesday) I realised that I can no longer give this game the attention it deserves, and that's not just because of my internet problems. I'm sorry for not saying this earlier, and for any inconvenience I might cause/have caused you all.
Enjoy the rest of the game everyone, and I'm still rooting for you, my fellow innocents. |

But I'm sure none of you will miss me, considering how I seem to be slipping under everyone's radars.
Wait for me, my dear phantom! We'll be together again, and then we could go and spend a lot of time together somewhere private. Last edited by Lhunardawen; 06-12-2008 at 10:59 AM. |
