Tanuchan Posted May 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 (edited) You are now following the raiding party who took Filk and Irvin. Feel free to RP as you see fit, but do not worry about following the book. You’re going in Fangorn’s direction, and the transition to Day Phase will occur at its borders. Finnius, Sinsor: keep RPing as you wish, but you are right now prisoners of the Uruk-hai. Sorry for this news, but you were the small ones... easier to carry .

Tanuchan Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 You are still chasing the Orc that have taken Irvin and Filk. You're certain now that the Orc are headed towards Isengard. Feel free to RP anything you think that fits, but please do not actually go to Isengard or into Fangorn. Anyone can RP going near this last place, though - since night phase transition will take you into that forest. Have fun ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Scorecard The Company of the Ring...

Ayshela Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 bleh... missed night phase RP entirely, and at least half likely to miss day phase as well... been gone all day and will not only have my usual horde of teenagers here tomorrow, but a 14month old as well, so time to think will be at a premium and time to write nonexistant. *might* be able to be on Saturday.

Katzaniel Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 It occurs to me that you can stop referring to our ringbearer as [he] now. Since only males remain, [he] must certainly be a he. Also, I hope that people aren't actually considering Rootmaker's lack of subtlety as a reason not to vote for him, but rather are using it as an IC excuse where necessary. Because I don't want the game to be unfair in the case that no one can think of an IC reason to suspect me, so note that Rootmaker could have pushed the roof down on whoever that was, or drowned that other person. And, yeah. I'd say this whether I was guilty or innocent, because I have noticed a distinct lack of voting for me, overall, and I'm rather baffled by it. (Not that I'm trying to provoke an onslaught of votes that gets me killed, or anything, but if that's what has to happen, then so be it.) PS. I mean in all the games. I've actually been voted for once, in this game, which is more than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayshela Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 and this is where RL gets me killed, it looks like, since the only "slowness" is in lack of time to post. I've actually not got time for *this*, but wanted to pop in to say I'd try to get in tomorrow - for all the good it looks like it will do. Oh well, I've actually lived longer than I thought I would, and it's been a fun game... and probably as well to go out before *having* to come up with some reason to vote for someone so thoroughly detracts from the fun of the game as to make it unpleasant. *shrug* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuchan Posted May 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 hehe... just to clarify, the [he] in the quoted paragraphs from the original book(s) are just because I don't want to refer to Aragorn, Frodo, and everybody else, by name It's not always that [he] is the Ringbearer. In the last two posts, it was actually Aragorn... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuchan Posted May 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 I'm going out for the evening, and there is just one vote... so, considering all things, I'm giving an extension of 24 hours, give or take Have fun! ~Tanny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanuchan Posted May 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 The Company is now entering Fangorn, and heading to the cliff they can see – probably following the tracks of the hobbits. Treebeard is at the top of the cliff, and the hobbits will be with him. Enjoy! Katz: Feel free to keep RPing Rootmaker – he’s burned, and fell into the Entwash. I have no other cue about his whereabouts Finnius, Sinsor: You have escaped the Orcs, and have already made your way up the cliff, and met or meeting Treebeard by the time the others enter Fangorn. You’ll be reunited on top of the cliff. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Scorecard The Company of the Ring...

Tanuchan Posted May 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 The Company is now riding towards Edoras, and the Halls of Meduseld. Day phase will comprise both riding and action in Meduseld, so feel free to RP straight at Edoras. If there’s enough votes/stated abstentions, I might end Day Phase some hours earlier – so, if you intend to post, please tell me so (either here or by PM).

Ayshela Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 This is prime Linador posting space - and of course, this is when I get blindsided by a nauseating migraine. *sigh* I probably won't be able to get to this tonight, but tomorrow is far more open than today was, so will pry loose posting time then, headache or no. One question which has never been answered, to my knowledge (and I admit freely I could have simply missed it, or forgotten)... since this is based on an established story, were you intending for the story to continue beyond the point the last of the wolves has been caught? Or will it end with the last wolf capture, as a normal WW game does? Without knowing any of the roles of the dearly departed, we're rather at a loss for where we're at as far as normal gameplay goes.

Tanuchan Posted May 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 (edited) Story will end normally Don't worry, if it still goes on it means there is at least one wolf alive... I'm not killing players by myself (yet ) As you're in five, you probably won't be taken much farther from where you are. I think that Helm's Deep is a good point to stop the story, whatever side wins - so be prepared for a slower change of setting if it's needed! Hope that answers the question?

Ayshela Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 *laughs* though I still think the vote for you was brilliant, yes that does answer the question. =) Thank you! Just wasn't sure if the story would continue on to Mordor once all the wolves were caught (which would be *quite* the extended trip for the survivors) or if there would be an appropriate end point found before then - and Helm's Deep does indeed seem like a good point since that could easily work well for either a villager or wolf win.

Lord Panther Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Sorry if my post seems rushed... an unusually busy day at work, and this was the only chance (likely) that I would be able to vote... and well, ya gotta vote, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuchan Posted May 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 *looks pointedly at her scorecard* Yep, you *all* gotta vote! Or I *will* start killing players myself!

Ayshela Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 *laughs* I meant Tanny killing US off, but hey, if she killed off the Mod I guess we'd have to go to war with ourselves on the spot to make SURE we caught the last wolf, eh?

Tanuchan Posted June 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 O... k... Another tie, mm? Well, I'm missing Giles' vote, but I cannot honestly stay up much more and I'm not willing to extend day phase once again. I'll be writing the post, and if he doesn't come to vote by the time it's ready, dice will tell... *considers the possibility of dice killing the Mod... maybe some tampering with it... mmm... * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuchan Posted June 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Well, the dice didn't want to kill the Mod... (un)fortunately The Company is riding towards Helm’s Deep, where they will arrive after at least one squirmish – feel free to RP it if you feel like it. Next Day Phase will be the end of the game, and you’ll be in battle once again – be prepared Finnius, please feel free to RP being a nuisance at the hands of the healers Or even trying to escape them, if you feel like it. I didn't have how to get you "killed" in Meduseld... so go ahead! Helm's Deep, from The Atlas of Tolkien's Middle-Earth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for not having waited for you, but I was really dead tired . You're now in the last day phase of the game... choose wisely, and good luck to both sides!
