It is a giant wall in the north to keep the wildlings (wild people) and scary stuff from invading the kingdom. It is guarded by the nights watch.

Elect Lissarae06 for mayor

The Wall is the group I'm in. I gather it's a place, but I don't know more than that.

Oh look, page 2.

You KNOW I will! (at least I know what the Wall is! ) I'm going to try to follow along as well as I can.
(OT: Tried on the "Big Bird" bridesmaid dress...hubs said, "Not bad!". This is a good sign. If it looked bad, he would say so. Many times. )

DocE... so hard to trust with that avatar... i believe he is actually by his own account not to be trusted...
Also- someone needs a Varys avatar... I need more eunuchs in my life

Lissa's been a good mod and a good player in the games I've watched.

Elect Lissa.

Oh, and I'm with the group that has no idea who their avatar is. I found it under GoT avatars somewhere.

Then again, I dont care if you don't vote me. Just making my case once.

Like I said, I'm just askin'.

I don't personally give the mayor any extra credibility when I'm considering whether to go along with someone's lynch. Most of them, I can't even remember who the mayor is. So I don't really buy that it gives more 'oomph', but maybe other people pay more attention to that than I do.

Anyway, I just wanted to hear yer argument.

Oh wow I didn't realize this game was starting tonight. I have been at my husband's softball game for the last 5 and a half hours. Got home a little while ago and just now saw the game had started. I'm going to be an ass and vote for myself elect lissarae

Wall citizens - get behind this vote. The Wall toughens people - we need a tough king.

I asked my group the same thing, and I am in (or on??) the Wall. Guess I am about to watch a lot of TV this weekend.

elect Devyn!!!
(if you win, found your coronation song, it's about whisky )

Oh and good to see you playing AKD!

I dont intend to win, but perhaps there is a small council, so coming in third might be advantageous.

elect DocE

Elect lissa

plz feel free to interpret the write ups aloud for us non-games of thrones folk. i tried to wiki it real quick to get a feel, and i hadda close the window after skimming a couple paragraphs cause it was so not straightforward. all i got that it's from back in the middle ages and has something to do with incest. way too many names to keep track of.

Devyn- 9 (LIS, abbercadaver, wildcatj, IPB, sheepdog, kismet, AKDream, shortnsweet, Packen)

Voting is closed. Results pending.

Reminder that Cuitl is co-mod. Please cc her on every PM.

The wall has stopped its weeping and is freezing solid. Food is becoming more valuable than gold. A strong king is needed to lead the people out of this mess before winter arrives.

Of course there can never be a succession without a fight. Devyn rallies her men around her and fights for her right to sit atop the iron throne. Her claim is not strong enough, however. Lissarae comes forward and offers her insight and experience. Although the people are scared, they respond to this.

Lissarae is the people's elected King. She has 1 veto.

29 players remain.

The Wall
1 Sheepdog
2 Ivorypolarbear
3 LIS
4 wildcatj
5 devyn
6 SnS
7 Packen

Night will end at 11 pm EST. Please send in PMs to both Cuit and myself. Any PMs that are not sent will be randomly generated.

Editing for any reason (except if a mod tells you to) results in immediate death.

11pm is soooooo far away.

..... Says the guy who can't reliably be online til 4pm. Haha. Maybe i shouldbt complain.

So I miss the election, and now have 14 hours to wait for results. . My timing is not optimal.

But, CONGRATS Lissarae! I would definitely have voted for you! Yay team Dorthraki!

Just a heads up in advance- Sunday and Monday I may be a little MIA. There's this whole graduation thing. Actually scratch that Monday morning during graduation I will probably be all over this.


Winter is coming.

So if we can only send messages to one person at a time should we send one to you dyachei and the same thing to cuitlamiztl?

Side note: I'm just asking for future reference. I'm not a wolf. I would think a wolf would be smart enough not to ask that question publicly.

Nice job TW. Missed the whole first day!!!

To be fair I needed a day off. You folks didn't even give me that!!!!

Ah well

Congrats Liss on the win!

and now on to the game.... Night ends at 4 am my time - seems another late/early night for me.

Yeah your sleep schedule is putting me and Packen to shame over here. Maybe I should just completely switch my sleep schedule around and be awake all night...exams are over right?

You are definitely not the only one who missed the whole day. I'm happy with Lissa as mayor though.
And now to study for my final tomorrow write a paper and work till 9:30pm.

Game of Thrones has A LOT of characters, most of which have their own story line. I will try my best (along with my fellow nerds I'm sure) to help with any questions I can.
