Yeah, it has been a while. Thanks for the welcome.

Looks like I'm an average immortal joe in this one.

Grammaticus · 09-08-2008, 08:57 PM

So, since we are starting on a night phase, anybody know if the wolves get to take a night kill out of the gate?

DaddyTorgo · 09-08-2008, 09:07 PM

I HEREBY UNOFFICIALLY CLAIM THE ROLE OF METHOS!

Given Christopher Lambert's accent in the film I think any effort you make at a Scottish accent will be in keeping with the film. (Who thought having a Frenchman play a Scot while having a Scot playing an, erm, Ancient Egyptian was it was a great idea)?

Anyway, with a likely night kill and duel kill every night and a lynch every day this will probably be over pretty quickly. Not sure there's too much to discuss until after the first deadline. 16 players in 9 locations means something's going to happen tonight.

claphamsa · 09-09-2008, 06:59 AM

Ok, lets see some duels!

jeheinz72 · 09-09-2008, 08:25 AM

Checking in, regular highlander, I have no idea what this is all about so excuse the naivete'

ntndeacon · 09-09-2008, 09:40 AM

I am wondering how many duels we have tonight.

Lathum · 09-09-2008, 09:44 AM

morning all. deadline in 15 minutes.

It will take me a few minutes to process everything so please bear with me

Lathum · 09-09-2008, 10:00 AM

deadline

Lathum · 09-09-2008, 10:07 AM

You arrive in New york, something weighing heavy on your mind. It is bad enough there are highlanders trying to cut off your head but now you must meet with them and address this new problem, wolves. No one could have seen this coming.

You arrive in St. PAtricks Cathedral and the rest of your enemies are there. No one is missing. After some discussion it is decided each night you must kill someone who is suspected of being a wolf. There will be no reward for this, it is not a kill with honor.

As you exit the church you decided to check the weather report for today, it looks like storms are coming.

http://www.weather.com/outlook/recre...=enhsearch_reg

Day 1 has begun. Deadline 8:00 PM EST.

PM's will be going out to everyone after I walk my dog, feed my dog, medicate my dog, brush my teeth, feed my cat. clean the litter box and medicate my cat.

jeheinz72 · 09-09-2008, 10:13 AM

4. Schmidty
7. Jackal
10. Telle
12. Mrs Schmidty
14. Illinifan
15. Mustang
16. Barkeep

Whole lotta people who we haven't heard from yet since PM's went out. I'll be holding off on dropping a vote for now, but I tend to look at this sort of thing on Day One.

claphamsa · 09-09-2008, 10:18 AM

yeah! bad no checkeriners

so no duels? I R confused!

PackerFanatic · 09-09-2008, 10:19 AM

checkeriners.

Great word.

ntndeacon · 09-09-2008, 10:20 AM

I am confused as well. I am hopeful we get back those points we spent tonight.

Was just waiting for an 'official' thread. I didn't think there was much to chatter about in the signup thread.

But, given that Lathum has posted the opening in here, guess this is the thread...

The Jackal · 09-09-2008, 10:22 AM

just checking in, tried to submit an order but I suppose I'm too late

Yeah lately the the signup threads have just evolved into the eventual game thread.

Good to have you checked in!

You too Jackal...I guess.

Narcizo · 09-09-2008, 10:41 AM

No duel seems odd unless Lathum had already decided there weren't going to be any on Night 0 (which would make sense given the wording of his description - although it doesn't explain why we would have to go through the rigaramole of submitting orders). No night kills either apparently. So either we got very lucky with an early bodyguard block, Kurgen was targeted or the night was intended to be, basically, a free scan by the seer.

Anyway the deadlines aren't going to favour me in this game. I'll get back later this evening and see if there's anything more to go on.

What kind of order did you try to submit?

Grammaticus · 09-09-2008, 10:49 AM

Lathum, are we now in the city we indicated in the PM? Can we choose the same city each night?

DaddyTorgo · 09-09-2008, 10:58 AM

Nobody came to SF with me? Shame - I was looking forward to a duel on the Golden Gate Bridge at night and taking someone's head!

claphamsa · 09-09-2008, 10:59 AM

DT its mathematically impossible for us to all be in diff cities......

DaddyTorgo · 09-09-2008, 11:02 AM

well i got a PM saying that essentially that nothing happened - so unless the duels are going to show up just in the thread and not in the PM's I think I'm all alone.

ntndeacon · 09-09-2008, 11:05 AM

I had a feeling somone was in my city, but the feeling went away. So I bet that it was planned for no duels the zeroth night.

just tried to move between cities, but that'll have to wait

DaddyTorgo · 09-09-2008, 11:07 AM

and i don't want to short-shrift Lathum's PM: I went to Pier 39 and alcatraz and took in a Tim Linecum win, but no duel.

everyone returns to NY City for the lynch phase.

You may return to the same city the following night

claphamsa · 09-09-2008, 11:08 AM

Nothing happened with me. I fluttered... but no duel. i got distracted. As im sure most of yalls did!

Mustang · 09-09-2008, 11:13 AM

If someone doesn't select a city or doesn't send an action, is the city randomized or is there a default?

jeheinz72 · 09-09-2008, 11:15 AM

I also fluttered but my instincts told me it wasn't right and I settled down.

Do we think this is a game where it's best to say what city we're in? Part of me thinks yes, but part of me thinks that even the good guys want to outlast the good guys anyhow, so a death doesn't necessarily mean a wolf.

Lathum · 09-09-2008, 11:17 AM

OK

everyone who submitted night actions should have gotten a PM.

Everyone still has 30 power points

Lathum · 09-09-2008, 11:19 AM

their city and number of power points used will be randomly selected, however, should they dual they will lose automaticly. I don't think it is fair to reward innactivity.

claphamsa · 09-09-2008, 11:21 AM

jsut to be sure... by the end of the day we need to vote, we need to pick a city, and weneed to pick power points. right?

DaddyTorgo · 09-09-2008, 11:39 AM

correct clap

The day phase ends at 8:00 PM EST, the only thing that happens then is a lynch.

The night phase begins at 8:01 with a deadline of 11:00 AM EST. That is when you pick a city and choose how many power points you use.

Grammaticus · 09-09-2008, 11:54 AM

I felt a flutter but it went away really fast. I had a sandwich and took in a baseball game. Did some sight seeing and all that stuff.

Day Actions- Traditional WW where each day a player is selected to be lynced. This takes place in NY city ( a location of signifigance later in the game). The deadline for this will be 8:00 PM EST.

There will be no ties and non voters will be punished. No lynch is not an option.

All roles will be revealed upon death.

Night Actions- Will be due by 11:00 AM EST- Wolves will submit their night target. In addition to that each player must select a city to travel to. The Cities are:

Seattle
Miami
San Fransisco
Dallas
Chicago
Boston
Washington DC
Philadelphia
Las Vegas

per the rules

ah, ok thanks!

path12 · 09-09-2008, 11:58 AM

I had a fluttering also, so somebody was in Miami I'd imagine.

claphamsa · 09-09-2008, 12:00 PM

I guess since we are all back in NY now... we can say where we were with no repercussions. I played slots in Vegas!

I was in Miami. Your fluttering probably went away Path because you didn't want to meet your maker in a duel!

PackerFanatic · 09-09-2008, 12:23 PM

Vegas baby!

I had me a good time in Vegas

Mustang · 09-09-2008, 12:34 PM

Wolves are essentially Highlanders too right?

ntndeacon · 09-09-2008, 12:34 PM

I did not get to a baseball game, but went to see the Eagles instead.
