Ok, I'm going to pull the deadline back to 8:00 PST, which is in about ten minutes, just so we don't lose any time in restarting. Hopefully we'll maintain some of our momentum that way, since everyone is just beginning to get into things.

Erm, yeah. I don't think I'll be comfortable playing if that's the case (as in if we restart). Gwath, I'll PM you.

Inziladun · 01-11-2010, 09:53 PM

So in a little less than 10 minutes, Night 1 begins?

Heh. Don't worry, someone can take my place if I decide to leave.

wilwarin538 · 01-11-2010, 10:00 PM

K, if we restart everyone needs to slam it in to their heads that this will be a completely different game. Rules and players the same but otherwise completely different, so no one better be using anything said in this last one against anyone in this new one.

It's a different game for all intents and purposes. Treat it like a different game. Please and thank you.

I need sleep before I sound even grumpier.

Gwath, to avoid any confusion I would suggest that everyone gets a new PM, even if their role or lover has remained unchanged....and perhaps no one should remain with both being the same as this previous batch (like for example someone could have the same role, but not the same Lover). Seems only fair and less likely to cause problems.

Isabellkya · 01-11-2010, 10:02 PM

Okies..

*mental note: check admin thread before checking the game thread*

Yay for Sally playing!

Gwathagor · 01-11-2010, 10:33 PM

Ok, everybody's received another PM detailing their new role and their new PM pal.

We are starting from scratch, so anyone may or may not have the same role or PM pal as before.

Thank you everyone bearing with me. Hope this works!

So is it Night 1 right now or Day 1...?

Loslote · 01-11-2010, 10:36 PM

And is DL 8PST or 9PST?

Glirdan · 01-11-2010, 10:41 PM

Well, seeing as it's Night 1 all over again, I'm going to make my way to that beloved room up the stairs and head to the place where slumber awaits!! See you all on the following Day!!...Cripes! WAIT!!! PROBLEM!!! I MAY not be able to post....like, at ALL that Day due to prior commitments!! Gah!! Umm...I might be able to post like an hour before the Day ends but just know that my vote will be entirely random as I won't have time to read any of the posts from that Day (I'm referring to Wednesday btw). SORRY!! I just thought of it!

Night 1.

Nogrod · 01-12-2010, 09:18 AM

It's just so sad when you think you have a love affair and then you realise it was just being a pen-pal...

Heh, I was just getting interestd on the game and *puff* it's gone...

Well, let's show a brave face. After all, the mod is the god.

Nogrod · 01-12-2010, 09:30 AM

And btw. so this time round there are no lovers, so no shared destiny, no special common interest etc., right? But everyone has a pen-pal with whom we can discuss issues according to our wishes?

I just wanted to be totally clear with it.

Yes.

However, for narration purposes, I will continue to treat the pairs as lovers (and I am not using the term in the technical, WW sense).

Shastanis Althreduin · 01-12-2010, 01:11 PM

So this time, there's not one traditional Lover pair? It's just Seer, Ranger, Hunter, Wolves?

Correct.

wilwarin538 · 01-13-2010, 09:42 AM

So my internet is being whacky, it's deciding randomly which websites should work or not (Facebook and e-mail are fine, but the Downs and my school's website weren't working earlier

), I've been trying on and off to get on here for the last hour or so. So it's working now but I thought I'd warn you just incase it happens again and I can't come back.

Gwathagor · 01-13-2010, 05:47 PM

I'm going to be gone during toDay's DL (can't very well pass up a Glenlivet tasting at the cigar lounge), so I am pushing it back to 10:00 PST for toDay only. After that, it will return to 8:00 PST - so, basically, the Night phase will be shortened by two hours.

satansaloser2005 · 01-13-2010, 11:59 PM

Gwath, if at all possible I'd like to know the terms for the hunter. Thanks!

Gwathagor · 01-14-2010, 12:04 AM

Hm. What exactly do you want to know?

satansaloser2005 · 01-14-2010, 12:06 AM

What happens in the event of a tie?

Also, is the hunter in this game (whether it's Morsul or not) a logical or illogical hunter?

I obviously can't say why I'm asking but I picked up on a couple things while reading the thread that....well, I'll explain on the game thred if you like, but yeah.

satansaloser2005 · 01-14-2010, 12:08 AM

Also, I hate my rubbish life. Gwath, I'll send you the bill for my counseling.

Gwathagor · 01-14-2010, 12:08 AM

What is the difference between a logical and illogical Hunter? I'm not familiar with the terms.

In the event of a tie, I will cast lots.

Morsul the Dark · 01-14-2010, 12:08 AM

for the record the current hunter is Illogical... I still have my grimoire post at the ready

Morsul the Dark · 01-14-2010, 12:09 AM

Should I be killed and my pick is an ordo would they go down with me?

Okay, good to know. The other question then becomes invalid....well, not as important.

Logical=takes down their target if the target is a wolf
Illogical=takes down their target, period

There's more variations that depend on Night vs. Day kill, etc, but I just wanted to know what you were thinking of.

Anyway, since I know that now, can I still vote? Please?

Yes. Vote. It was my fault for not explaining the rules thoroughly.

Gwathagor · 01-14-2010, 12:13 AM

And, yes, the Hunter is illogical.

Glirdan · 01-14-2010, 07:03 AM

Ummm...now I'm confused....did Morsul have more votes then I did at the end of the Day? I seem to recall having 2 and him and Shasta each with three.....or am I delusional?? If so, somebody point this out to me. Or something. I'm not complaining, I'm just genuinely confused.....

The Hunter in this game was illogical, meaning if they were lynched, their pick goes down with them when they're lynched regardless of their pick's wolf, innocent or evil.

Morsul the Dark · 01-14-2010, 08:01 AM

That was the coolest death scene ever, by the way.

Gwathagor · 01-14-2010, 09:57 AM

Thank Mr. Springsteen for that one. Stole it right out of the song.

That really was an awesome death. Too bad it had to be me on my first game back!

Anyways, good luck to the rest of you! And too my lover, I bid you adieu and we shall play again soon!
