"In a land of myth, and a time of magic, the destiny of a great kingdom rests on the shoulders of a young boy. His name... Merlin."

NO NO NO ... that's not right.. This is not about Merlin....

Try that beginning again...

Here is a montage of scenes from the movie instead...



WRONG AGAIN.. Excalibur... That movie is way too earnest. Don't you know what this game is about..

Camelot?



DEFINITELY NOT... This is not some silly soap opera......

This is serious WW biz right here.

Let me tell you the game's point, right from the mouth of god:



So there you have it. You have embarked on an important task... to seek the grail... or is it? Who knows what the real point of this is... just get to it...

There are 31 players in the game (sort of).

You may PM within your group (unless you have been given other instructions that are more lenient/strict).


IMPORTANT GROUNDRULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1) The Foxhunter memorial rule: Any player who does not fulfill their role or post for 2 days (or 2 cycles whichever mods think is fairer) WILL BE KILLED and their role perhaps assigned to someone else if deemed necessary.

2) The HIPAA rule: Some of you will be exposed to privileged information in this game. You will be told when necessary about this. You may under no circumstances discuss this information with any other player (wolf mate or otherwise) in any manner. If you do, YOU WILL BE KILLED. Don't cheat, what is the point? No hints... No innuendos. No responding at all to questions about it. It does not exist outside of your little brain.
Any player who has been found to try to bypass these rules deliberately will be banned from as many WW games as I can convince others to ban you from. Capische?

3) Strategizing from the dead. I know you all know not to do it, but it happens WAY too often anyways. When you are dead, restrict your comments to taunting, trolling, giffing, etc. Nothing even close to commentary on your death or play. Also do not discuss the game when you die with anyone. Dead is always dead, although it usually is.

4) There are 2 co-mods... Send messages to both of us, or your action may not be considered received. DEVYN and STARTINGOVERVET are your gracious moderators.

5) If you are not going to be around, send in contingency votes or contingency actions.. or assign someone as your power of attorney for one cycle (risky move that).... otherwise beware of rule #1.

6) Have fun. No whining. Play to win. Play fair. What happens in WW stays in WW... Don't hold a grudge outside the game.

7) Any concerns ... contact the mods. We always want an entertaining game that is fair (in our heads, not yours)...


Your first task is to elect a PRODUCER for this movie..

Also, start sending in nightime actions...

Items have been distributed (if there are any, or if they really matter)...


Name confusion alert:
1) There are 2 orcas playing this game... Don't pull an SOV and PM the wrong one.... Orca2011 and Orcagirl
2) There are two SnS acronyms. ShortnSweet is the official SnS... SwingnSave should be referred to as swings.

7 gmail addresses still missing. Get those in. You will be told why when/if appropriate.

woooooooooooooooooooooo

just in time for my long travel weekend.

Yay! I'm excited to get started. I won't be around this afternoon at all but that doesn't mean I'm not excited.

If there were any items...they have been distributed.

If you have not received anything..... too bad.


And get to electing your Producer.

I have very little tolerance for lack of game play. I am happy to take things into my own hands.

Can we elect ourselves?

i second this.. even though it cost us the win

elect jdh

I will Elect DocE. Maybe he can live past round one if he's producer.

elect nutmeg

Hi I just woke up from a nap ...ok, woke up for the first time today (call it a post-semester celebratory hibernation)

I don't know exactly a "Producer" produces...but since it starts with "p"
elect PP.

elect SnS

MrsSOV. I've pretty much only been sleeping too since I got out.

OT, but I hope all of you guys' families are safe and sound.

This shooting at the elementary school in Connecticut has me a little shaken up.

What kind of freakin' country do we live in?

This is a good point. Though I always maintain a high index of suspicion that he's a wolf whenever he does survive the first couple rounds. unelect jdh, elect DocE for now.

Here's the problem I have with DocE, while I tend to like him as Mayor, he is a good wolf. Maybe we should elect someone no so good at being a wolf??

Though, he'd be investigated right away this way . . .

Hmmmmm.

Makes me sick to think someone could do that.. I did an externship in that town and drove past that school every day. I checked and all of the vets' kids are ok. So scary

So what's the 411 on SnS? Why should they be mayor?

Or whiskey...I am in Scotland after all. We've got castles too. And a movie set.

I think I gotta go with Nyanko's "sure, why not": elect SnS

Shrubbery sounds nice.

elect SnS

I wanted a shrubbery too! Plus, SnS is in my group.

I promise this time I'm not a wolf. Yet. So I'm all for being a mayor role!

There's your next game!

I'll be working on an avatar in a bit.

Oh, and mods, I will change my avatar when I get home tonight from work.

I elect SnS

Same here. That and almost getting into three car accidents while out shopping today, each one because some jerkwad decided it would be fun to turn left in front of me.

Anyway, voting for the producer. Hmm...well might as well go with someone in the group. He was a good wolf hunter last game (though he does need to work on how he tries to get information across). elect jdh
