Swords in the Moon [Concluded]

[pevergreen]

I'm sorry guys. But its great fun! Join us!

Look on the funny side of it at least.

Are duels verses dead players allowed? @_@

Well errm probably not, I wouldn't worry anyway the outcome of a duel is unlikely to affect you...

Besides GH is only allowed to issue one challenge... I don't see him using it on a dead player...

[GeneralHankerchief]

I'm still going to challenge them all out of total irritation. If they're cowardly enough to not see that I seek battle with them and challenge me to a duel, then let them live with that shame.

There, that's my RP attempt for the week.

[Splitpersonality]

Then I shall challenge you GH!!

Hoo ha *karate noises*

I sincerely hope that Sigurd just couldn't find the time to participate in our game - any RL drama that might have kept him away from us is not deserved by such a fine man. Really.

I voted for him (second, before the bandwagon) after Louis' lament, missing his brilliant analytical skills, with which lament I agreed.

In my experience, Sigurd can parse posts, and assign accurate motivations, better than anyone I have seen. I think it comes from his training in formal debate; he really can 'see' and understand all sides of an issue/problem. A quiet atheist, he easily slipped into the "God exists" mode in an ancient backroom debate thread - just because it was his assigned side. He muted the opposing view in less than 4 posts/exchanges.

I hoped that seeing his name bolded, if he quickly scanned this thread, would propel him into exercising a bit of his expertise. Didn't happen.

But, I don't lose hope; Sigurd has been known to speak (sagely) from the grave, so we may yet see contributions from him.

I can relate to ajaxfetish's sorrow:

Dang it, I missed the voting. I've got to figure out how Andres' schedule fits together with mine. Looks like the deadline's while I'm at work (not a job I can post from, unfortunately), so I'll either have to post my vote well ahead of the cutoff and miss all the last-minute info and any coordination attempts, or miss out on voting. Bummer.

I can read and participate in mornings and evenings (my time; the rest of the day is work-type afk-time). It's why I'm determined to get a vote in on day-phases before work, even on flimsy evidence (ala my vote for Glen d1; sorry Dude; no 'fense). I committed to the game, so I'll play it through. I don't understand why anyone does any differently. Lynching lurkers at start-game may not have proven a wise strategy, but I admit: it makes me feel good. And I've seen lurkers come out of obscurity in the end-game, only to SURPRISE! win, then gloat about it.

It's always amazing to me at Dénouement, to learn there were other conversations, and forums, and strategies operating, independent of the game-thread - while ignorant little townies like me get snuffed one-by-one, cuz we can't guess correctly who the bad guys are. I hate that. And I love that. It's why I play.

Well. This got longer than I intended.

Sorry Sigurd. Hope all is well.
