CrimsonFox · 09-28-2011, 02:46 AM

I haven't actually STARTED in a game for awhile. I've forgot what it's like.
Probably get vanilla.

mauchow · 09-28-2011, 06:49 AM

i'll play

Abe Sargent · 09-28-2011, 06:56 AM

This game will be capped at 25 if we get a bigger response.

Autumn · 09-28-2011, 08:42 AM

I was going to ask you the source material, Abe. I know Ravenloft of course but had never heard of this Gothic Earth. That's really interesting.

Autumn · 09-28-2011, 08:43 AM

Told you we'd get the numbers for a Wednesday start ;-) People demand more Abe!

CrimsonFox · 09-28-2011, 08:50 AM

I've got like 3 copies of the box set. want one?

If we get to 25 and someone wants to play they can have my spot. I have very little time to follow along these days.

Does that help CrimsonFox?

Danny · 09-28-2011, 12:04 PM

If we get over 25, you guys can have my spot... over my cold dead body

CrimsonFox · 09-28-2011, 03:54 PM

no ntn....it really doesn't

SnDvls · 09-28-2011, 04:50 PM

I'll play

dubb93 · 09-28-2011, 05:08 PM

Sign me up.

Barkeep and I were turning in an extremely strong wolf performance the last time this was ran. Regardless of side this time around I have unfinished business with this rule set.

Danny · 09-30-2011, 01:37 PM

We didn't reach the max, but I think 22 is a great size for a WW game.

Autumn · 09-30-2011, 01:57 PM

Should be epic.

Danny · 09-30-2011, 01:59 PM

Yeah, until I get whacked night 1...

hoopsguy · 09-30-2011, 02:44 PM

Make it 23 - I think I've made enough progress with work this week that I can try to sneak in this game next week.

CrimsonFox · 09-30-2011, 04:46 PM

And there was much rejoicing.

Abe Sargent · 10-02-2011, 03:29 AM

Sign ups until 5 pm Sunday EST. Roles will go out in the evening sometime - my guess is 8-9ish ET< with the first deadline Monday night.

Grammaticus · 10-02-2011, 09:23 AM

Looks like you still have a little room left. I'd like to jump in and play.

saldana · 10-02-2011, 04:01 PM

wow...this is gonna be a monster of a game

Abe Sargent · 10-02-2011, 05:03 PM

Sign ups are closed, I am working on selecting people now. I also have some rules to spring in if we had over 20 signups, so I need to do some cutting and pasting to bring those into play

Abe Sargent · 10-02-2011, 05:23 PM

Before we begin, I just want to take a moment and thank all of you for jumping in and playing this with me. I've wanted to finish this game for so long! I made some fun changes, tweaked some rules and roles and items, and I hope that you have as much fun playing this as I had making it. Enjoy!

Abe Sargent · 10-02-2011, 05:48 PM

Okay, I will be sending out roles and items shortly. Please do not post until I give the start post here in the thread

Abe Sargent · 10-02-2011, 05:54 PM

This is what every vanilla Lightbringer pm will say:

Quote:

You are a vanilla Lightbringer. You begin the game with a XXXXXX. Go kick the ass of the unrighteous!

Abe Sargent · 10-02-2011, 06:23 PM

The role post for Lightbrgners reads almost identically, except I say you are a Lightbringer and a XXX, You begin....

Abe Sargent · 10-02-2011, 06:24 PM

All pms have been sent. if you did not get one, please let me know ASAP. Thanks!

hoopsguy · 10-02-2011, 06:24 PM

Abe Sargent · 10-02-2011, 06:24 PM

Your meeting has become fraught with the cloud of suspicion that hangs over each of you. You've had to be loners to survive the Red Death, and you do not know each other that well. It is very possible that one or more of you are bribed, enspelled, charmed, impostered, or many things worse. Far worse.

However, the message you received from your elder was clear when you got it this morning. There were not supposed to be twenty-four of you here. How many there were the message did not state, but fewer than that number were invited here to Cape Girardeau to plot against the Red Death's planned actions in the World Fair in Chicago later this summer.

With unknown enemies and unknown numbers, and a certainly that the Red Death will continue to subvert your allies, you need to root out and find the servants now, before it is nigh too late. You have your powers. You have your items. Do you have the wits it will take to survive?

Day One has begun. It ends Monday at 10:00 pm EST

Commo_Soldier · 10-02-2011, 06:35 PM

Checking in.

Grammaticus · 10-02-2011, 06:37 PM

Checking in too, just a vanilla lightbringer here.

dzilla77 · 10-02-2011, 06:43 PM

Vanilla lightbringer here.

Thomkal · 10-02-2011, 07:10 PM

Well disappointed that I'm just a vanilla Lightbringer this time around.

But very happy that Abe is running this game again-its really a fun ruleset.

And since had the game continued, he likely would have fooled many of us, I think its only appropriate that I:

checking in.

Thomkal · 10-02-2011, 08:37 PM

So for those who played in the first game, check the rules out-there are more roles and in this version we CANNOT pass to a role only to a person. So be careful who you send your items to.

ntndeacon · 10-02-2011, 09:21 PM

No ryhme or reason yet. perhaps our "randomness" will lead one of the Red into self preservation mode quickly and we can get them quickly.

Big, big game. And since the number of bad guys grows in this game, I assume there's a smaller than normal amount of them right now, and some may not be able to converse. Which means we're in it for the long haul probably before info gets useful.

I'm heading to bed but should be on regularly tomorrow.

CrimsonFox · 10-02-2011, 11:24 PM

vanilla soda flavored lightbringer here. I will not be kicking anyone's ass hoever because it against my religion.

The Jackal · 10-02-2011, 11:27 PM

I'm going to re-read the rules when I'm more awake but my first takeaway is:

Roles revealed on death, conversion will happen.

Looks like we have a lot of vanillas so far, you can throw my hat in that ring as well. I bet we do have a fair amount of vanillas in the game but hopefully we can get lucky and hit some bad guys early on.

CrimsonFox · 10-02-2011, 11:38 PM

Rule or no rules, I'm still remembering how I got ganked last time. WHen the big bad deathmonsters ended the day early. Be wary of such evil tricks my lightbrothers.

hoopsguy · 10-02-2011, 11:43 PM

I didn't play this one last time around, so I'm a Red Death rookie. Be gentle.

CrimsonFox · 10-02-2011, 11:45 PM

So you are admitting you are a LOW LEVEL RED DEATH player? HMMMMMM??????

hoopsguy · 10-02-2011, 11:46 PM

I guess so ... and you are making me feel like I need to re-read the rules again because I don't recall seeing high/low level stuff.

Sigh ... as if I needed another reason to stay up for another 10-15 minutes.

CrimsonFox · 10-02-2011, 11:51 PM

Hmmmm evil creatures stay up late. Good people go to bed.

mckerney · 10-02-2011, 11:51 PM

Good evening.

hoopsguy · 10-02-2011, 11:54 PM

Ah, I see what you did

I've already copped to having the vanilla Lightbringer PM. But a re-read of the rules reminded me that everyone has an item. Probably not all as hardcore as the one I got (right, like I would be talking about it if it was something that sounded particularly cool) but everyone should be bringing some kind of lumber to the plate, so to speak, on Day 1.
