Yep. Due to work, I won't be around for the later half of the Day (including DL) on Thursday and Friday, and Monday thru Wednesday the following week, so I'll have to vote early on those Days, but otherwise it's fine.

**The Saucepan Man** · 10-09-2009, 12:53 PM

Fine by me. I am pretty busy at work, so I may not be quite as active as in times past, but I'm slavering like a Byakhee in anticipation.

I presume that this means that Night 1 starts on Tuesday ...?

Pitchwife · 10-09-2009, 01:07 PM

Better be careful with Cthulhu invocations, SpM, or sally might have another stroke if she reads it.

Loslote · 10-09-2009, 06:59 PM

Works for me! I can't wait.

wilwarin538 · 10-10-2009, 06:55 AM

So that would make Day 1 wednesday? Wow, Day 1 is going to be just dreadful for me, I have school then doctors then work, with absolutely noooo time inbetween, and that all ranges from 8:30am to 9:30 pm, so really, that's bad. But Day 2 should be much better, Day 3 as well!

Basically, Tuesday is fine, I just won't be around.

McCaber · 10-11-2009, 08:46 PM

Woah, I totally forgot about the night phase. So I can start that Monday, and the first Day dawns on Tuesday.

Better?

Morsul the Dark · 10-11-2009, 08:51 PM

whateer works for everyone else is fine by me I have no life so I'm open.

That kind of works for me. It is just deadline is noon my time and I have school from around 7 to 2.

Brinniel · 10-12-2009, 01:02 AM

After giving much thought, I decided while noon isn't a great deadline for me, it's certainly better than the one from the previous game. And I don't think I can any longer resist playing a game that involves the likes of players like Spm.

So McCaber...do you still have room for a last minute sign-up? (Very last minute it seems, as I didn't realise the game was starting as early as in nine hours...

)

wilwarin538 · 10-12-2009, 07:47 AM

Oh, that would be much better!!!

So then I'm asuming roles are going out sometime today?? well that's exciting!!!

McCaber · 10-12-2009, 10:17 AM

Brinn - consider yourself on the list.

Nienna · 10-12-2009, 11:03 AM

McCaber are we starting today?

McCaber · 10-12-2009, 11:05 AM

Yeah, I'm writing up the narrations now.

Pitchwife · 10-12-2009, 02:58 PM

McCaber, a few things I'd like to be clarified before we start:

Can we retract votes? If no, that's fine; if yes, how many?
What happens in case of a tie? Double (or *shudder* multiple) lynch, flip of the coin, or something completely different?
Will there be any modfire rules, or should we deal with inactive players on our own?

McCaber · 10-12-2009, 03:02 PM

Retractable votes: no.
In case of ties, first to reach the highest number is the one lynched.
I had hoped not to deal with modfire rules, but as a reference: if someone misses three votes in a row, they're gone.

Thread is up, roles are out.

Inziladun · 10-12-2009, 03:08 PM

As a heads up for any first-timers who may not know, you need to be in Invisible Mode while you play.

Nogrod · 10-12-2009, 06:14 PM

I'm probably going to be away from the computer on Thursday-Friday.

We need to bring our summer cottage to a winter-readiness and hoist the jetty as those who normally do that are not able to do it this year...

So I will be off like GMT+3 midday on Thursday to the Friday evening... or if my father decides otherwise...

Lariren Shadow · 10-13-2009, 03:21 PM

I should mention that Day 2, Thursday, is going to be horrible for me because I have a meeting then I rush off to work for most of it. Just a warning that I might not be the most active then.

satansaloser2005 · 10-14-2009, 11:31 AM

You lot killed Saucepan Man on the first Day? What is wrong with you people?!

(That being said, I've not actually read the thread so I have no idea what went on toDay. I was just popping in to wish you all good luck because I thought the game started today, and saw that someone had already been lynched.)

Either way, best of luck to all of you. Play well and have fun!

~~Sally~~

P.S. SpM, you better stick around for another game if possible, because I'd love to play with you!

Generally 24 hours, same as Day. McCaber will put up his Night 2 narration when it's time, then he'll say we can talk on the game thread again with the official beginning of Day 2.

Roa_Aoife · 10-14-2009, 08:25 PM

24 hours. Day 2 begins at 1600 GMT tomorrow (Thursday).

EDIT: Ah, Inzil beat me to it.

Morsul the Dark · 10-14-2009, 08:36 PM

Thank You I figured Night would be shorter, Ah well tomorrow then

Kitanna · 10-16-2009, 04:40 PM

I am so sorry to have missed DL. I missed my alarm and had just enough time to go "Wow I'm behind" before scurrying out the door.

And since I'm making apologies I'll say I'm sorry in advance because I won't have much play time Day 3. I'll be around for a solid four or five hours and then I'm gonna be away from my computer.

Brinniel · 10-16-2009, 09:58 PM

Just letting you know I won't be here for most of toMorrow and may not even post until a few hours before deadline. I'm heading up to the NH Film Festival tomorrow which means leaving around 7am and not returning until around 1am. Needless to say, I'm gonna be pretty tired by the time I return and will probably only have enough energy to catch up on the thread before falling asleep.

McCaber · 10-16-2009, 10:21 PM

Alright, I have a huge favor to ask. Thanks to terrible scheduling, it's going to be nigh-impossible for me to be around to open and close the day. I have the opening narration written up, and a closing one I can make about an hour or two post deadline.

Can I have a volunteer to post the results from tonight and tomorrow? Preferably one of the recently departed just for convenience, but an innocent bystander can easily get roped in.
