Signup Thread

[Ituralde]

Welcome to the Official Signup Thread for Last of the Romans the official successor to the vastly popular King of the Romans!

Below you will find the players from KotR listed in order of their activity. The information for this is taken from looking at all the Diet threads and cross-checking it with the last KotR PBM Orders and Report Thread from KotR.
Everyone who participated in the Test Game recieved an extra activity point.
If I missed something please tell me about it and also provide the necessary link/s so I can check it.

If you want to join LotR please post in this thread and I will update the table accordingly.

Once we have recruited general bodyguards (RGB) within the game we will start distributing them together with the two available family members (FM), Aleksios Komenus, the Faction Leader and Ioannis, the Faction Heir.
The avatars will be distributed in order of total activity, so the person with the highest activity will be the first to choose his RBG or FM, this will continue until every player is in possesion of an avatar.
A list of current avatars, that will be updated, can be found in the Senate Library.

If you did not take part in KotR feel free to sign up too and I will put you down on the list and you will be assigned a RBG just like (most) everybody else.




Edit: Reworked Table and information to reflect the newest developments!

[Ituralde]

So this is how it should go:

I sign up and I take an RBG.

[Privateerkev]

I've had 4 Diet sessions, not 3.

1260, 1280, 1300, and 1340.

I sign up and I will take a family member if one is offered. Otherwise I will take a RBG

*edit*

woot! Thank you!

[Ferret]

yeah the orders and reports thread hadn't had activity updated for a long time. I think I've had about 5 now, definately more than 3 anyway.

But it doesn't matter anyway as I'm happy with a RBG.

[TinCow]

I'll take a RBG.

Also, please give everyone who participated in the Test Game a +1 to their participation counts. This includes people who didn't play in KOTR. Other interested people can also be found in this thread, and their names should be tentatively added.

And here I thought I could just go from econ21s post.

Unfortunately it is not updated so it will be off by one or two. I added the links in here so people can quickly check and see how many sessions they participated in. :D

[Smowz]

Hi,

I am pretty new to the community, kind of a MTW to Paradox back to M2TW heathen convert.

I felt KotR was a wonderful innovative project with many twists and turns. I was not involved in that project so I will start with 0 activity and I understand the pursuit for eager gamers.

I would be very happy to be a part of LotR, playing in any way i would certainly enjoy to get get involved as a RBG if and when something pops up for me.

I declare my wish to officially sign up.

[Ramses II CP]

Sign me up and I'll take an RGB.

I'm going to hold off on general advertising (outside of my sig, that is) for a couple days to see how many people we have in just from the Throne Room. Enthusiasm for the game is already pretty high just within the Throne Room. A 60 person first Senate session would be total chaos.

[AussieGiant]

I'd like to pump out my chest and say I was in from the 3rd Diet session onwards as "The Merchant of Venice"...that's put me on "13 big bad KotR activity points"

And given who's in front then it really doesn't matter.

Sign me little trousers up

and please RBG me right up!!

[flyd]

Sign with RBG

Since we only have two FM's, if we get many more FM sign-ups than that, maybe we should hold a vote, OOC, to assign them. Most of the top of the list is going to defer, and I don't know if plus or minus a handful of diet votes should decide it, especially with the uneven distrubtion of diet sessions (most in the early game). We could only have one vote, with the runner-up getting the faction heir.

[TinCow]

I'm going to make this a bit easier. Since we're apparently going to be spawning a ton of avatars right at the start, we can skip the FM/RBG choice. Before we assign avatars, I will create the new Senate Library/Info Post Thing, which will include the mugshots of all the avatars available from the beginning of the game. I will then go down the list from highest priority to lowest. When it is your turn, you can pick any of the avatars that remain untaken, or defer for a new RBG, at which point you go to the bottom of the pile. So, on the current ranking (which may be inaccurate) OK would go first and can pick any of the avatars he wants, FM or RBG. Then econ21 (if he's playing) and I would choose from the ones that remain, minus OK's selection. We continue down until all spawned avatars are picked. As new RBGs are spawned, we will continue working down the list in this way until everyone has an avatar. In the case of people who have the same priority level, I will use random.org to choose which order they pick in.

[Cecil XIX]

I believe my total is eight, including the Test Game. Anyways, sign me up for a family member.

EDIT: Um, though I suppose it doesn't matter too much now.

[Ituralde]

I've changed the first thread to represent the changes mentioned by TinCow and also took the opportunity to go over all 15 Diet Sessions and add up the activity for all players. If I still made an error please say so in this thread or via PM. Please also link the relevant Diet Sessions, so I can check it easier.

[Zim]

Sign me up, with an fm on the very slim chance any make it that far down the list, otherwise with a RGB.

[Privateerkev]

gibson was in the test game.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Sign me up tentatively.

I'm still in this thing, working disk drive or not. I'll let you know on my exact status when the game starts so you can make proper arrangements. In the case of me still not being able to access the save, I'll defer avatars to those who can actually use them.

[Ferret]

Hmm just looked at the threads and it seems I forgot to vote even when I had an avatar , oh well it doesn't matter anyway.

That's why I'm not at the max on mine as well, just wasn't paying attention to the time limit during one random session. It's not a perfect system, but it's the most impartial one I can think of. In any case, I don't think having a low priority will cause much of a problem. If you really don't like anything available, you can just defer. If you're willing to wait, you'll eventually get what you want.

[Byblos]

In! RBG

Rarely do I quote myself but this is an exception.

I'd like to thank Ituralde and/or anyone else that took it upon themselves to NOT correct me and my chest pumping....I did vote in 11 Diet session rather than 13...

I like the new idea on a draft version of the avatars TC. Good move.

[Kagemusha]

Well, time to get back.Im ready if you will have me.

[Csargo]

I'll play.

[deguerra]

As Zim, I'd be happy to take a FM this time around on the slim chance that one makes it down. Otherwise, RBGs for the world!

[Askthepizzaguy]

I'll sign up and take a RBG of course, in lieu of any positions available for Court Jester.

I'll do what's expected of me militarily, if I can, but mostly I'll be there for comic relief, as I don't expect to ever wield a position of power.

[rossahh]

Sign me up

[OverKnight]

I'm in.

Given that someone has to be FL, I'm a veteran of Kotr and that I have a bit of a background in the selected faction, I'll take Alexius.
