Westeros: A Game of Thrones.

[Gurkhal]

I'm not suprised. Savages and barbarians the lot of 'em.

[Double A]

That sounds more like something a Bolton would say.

[Montmorency]

Stark wants skulls for th-

[johnhughthom]

Just to clarify, I don't need pms for orders. One overall orders post in the QT will be fine, factional and individual orders together. I only need pm for orders you may not want your team mates to know about.

[Kival]

Do you want to have letters and similar communicative actions explicitly written?

Letters to NPCs don't need to be fully written down, just the intent of the letter will be fine. I don't need any letters you are sending to other players, and letters that are to be made public should be put in the Game Thread.

I think you only wanted the first answer, but I put the others in just in case.

[Arjos]

John, could we get, in the game thread, a player - character list, so that we know who we are speaking to or sending ravens?

I'll get it up at the end of this phase, they haven't all decided.

If everybody could post the character list with their orders thread I'd appreciate it.

[White_eyes:D]

I had no idea the Starks fed thier wolves Human flesh.

Direwolve's are the Westero's equivalent of a limited edition sports car that Daddy really didn't want to give you, but you begged/blackmailed him until he did. Guaranteed to make other houses jealous or your money back.

[Double A]

Yeah, remember how badly Cersei wanted a dire wolf coat?

Its a shame you cant get them Green.

I wouldn't want to mess with a wolf the size of a small horse with white fur and red eyes.

[Double A]

No one wants to mess with Ghost. The others...

[Greyblades]

OOC: Hmm, I wonder if anyone who actually roleplays will see which one of our proclimations are true or if they will just see both as cookie cutter attempts at political mudslinging, either way the proof on both sides are equally valid (ie verry little). Good luck getting someone to listen now beskie. Muahahahahaha!

[Jarema]

Good one!!!

TBH, who proclaims first, has more chance to be seen as honest.
Also, Stannis has better reputation for his word, I believe. And his claim is (presumably) supported by words of men who has no personal interest in claiming it. We have to wait for Stark's words

[Greyblades]

Honesty isnt an issue it just needs to be trivialized. It was ignored for the most part in the books, this way it shouldn't even be taken seriously by the common folk.

[Secura]

This isn't the books though, events transpire partly due to our own machinations, partly at JHT's whim.

Copy-pasting Beskar's efforts has led to several glaring errors in your response as a result; the pure blondeline of the Baratheons is a particular highlight.

I'm going to suggest that there should be a rule on amending posts over an hour after they've been posted, much like how we don't allow votes to be edited in mafia. Now that I've pointed out an error in your post, there's nothing to stop you correcting it even though some Houses may have already seen it.

You wouldn't be able to repeatedly amend a letter sent across the kingdom, why should a post be any different?

[Greyblades]

True, but use of meta information to dictate your actions and reactions without justification is discouraged, including this conversation. I'm not worried, I half expect everyone is probably going to turn on my side because "they're the lannisters and the lannisters are bad guys" anyway So I'm going to have some fun with this.

Edit: The pointing out of errors might help in mafia but not here I think, the intention is getting accross the attitude of my response than the actual claim.

Incidentally, thanks for pointing out my mistake before such a no editing after an hour rule was implemented. Bwahahaha!

[johnhughthom]

I'm not going to implement a strict rule for editing posts in the Game Thread, I know how annoying it can be to reread a post a day later and notice a grammatical error or spelling mistake. I would ask that players do not change the content of a post in that thread. I will overlook Greyblade's editing, I didn't see the original post anyway, but any future editing of posts not to correct obvious errors may result in loaded dice at the end of that turn.

[Montmorency]

Didn't I say the host loads dice?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Don’t load my dice, bro!

[Beskar]

either way the proof on both sides are equally valid (ie verry little)

Except mine is true and yours isn't?

The fact you called my character bald when the picture from Game of Thrones season 2 doesn't have Stannis as bald. The fact everyone of Baratheon line has a black mane of hair except for the children of Cersei and their resemblance in looks to the Kingslayer?

In the Book, everyone knows what Stannis says is true. It is a mere fact that the lie suits them. With Magerty marrying Tommen, Tyrell's want some "legitimacy" to the throne for their own ends. Supporting the truth doesn't suit their purpose. It was never a case no one believed it, they all did believe it. It just wasn't a good idea to :flower: the Lannister's over it.

[Kival]

I think it was a really bad try, especially since blonde hair is recessive while bald hair isn't. Also is bald hair not a strict genetic pointer it only makes bald hair probable. But as I don't know how much of this is known in Westeros, we should just let the Gamemaster representing all non-players and the Houses decide what they think about it. But I really like to highly discourage content editing after more than e.g. an hour.

[johnhughthom]

3 hours to deadline.

[Kagemusha]

I would like to have an clarification on the rules of engagement. Does a faction need to declare war in public in the game thread before they can attack someone else? This is quite important information concerning starts of wars.

No. You cannot call up the banners without a declaration, but factional armies can be used for a cowardly pre-emptive strike.

Thank you for your answer.

... What? I alread said it was to trivialize your proclimation, not damage your claim. Point is that I'm not taking your messages seriously and that, as far as westeros is concerned, Stannis' claim is baseless slander, something that can be made up on the spot, kinda like what I did.

And as for the appearance, check the books, check the wiki, he's bald, tvshow or not.

Picture used by the host doesn't have him bald. Google image search for Stephen Dillane .

[Jarema]

If I remember correctly, in a book he IS bald, at least partially

[Greyblades]

I think Book trumps unreleased TV shows here.
