@MyCatGinger Yes, shun your terrible classmates. All the love to the fictional world's most timeless and greatest friendship. (If you haven't checked these out already, I'd recommend the first couple seasons of the Granada Jeremy Brett/David Burke/Ed Hardwicke series if you feel like you can stomach the 80's-ness of it. (because not everyone can I guess) Brett is my personal favorite Holmes ever ever ever, and there's a reason an entire book was written about his performance. Also, the Bert Coules radio dramas are underrated and fantastic. Clive Merrison and Michael Williams aren't talked about nearly enough, and they recorded the entire Doyle canon, and then some. Oh, and Sherlock too. But everybody knows that.)

aaaannywayyy....

And thanks! <3 my hands were shaking and my heart was pounding when I finished that exam. I really didn't want to retake it.

My obsession aside, I solemnly swear that this new full timeness won't affect my posting. And even if it does, I'll let you folks know if I can't post.

Don't worry, duck. I've never known an RP to be in a position to continue even after the GM has basically said 'I'm sulking and can't do this right now' before, so we're unbelievably golden from where I'm standing.

Decisions, Decisions


In other news, there is going to be a decision that is made by me (hopefully shortly) down the line. I'm not going to tell you what that decision is, apart from promise you that it has nothing (directly) to do with how much your characters are breathing on a scale of 0-1. What I want you guys to tell me is whether you want me to do it by luck, which is the natural way this game is operating, since it's all your characters' pro-activity that is driving this, or whether you want me to rig it according to how I think it should be done best, and therefore give the game a slightly more GM-led dynamic which is what we've really not had so far and what it wasn't supposed to be about.

Obviously I'm not going to give you any more info at this stage, because, well, this is still Wolf Manor, but I basically would like to know how you would like to approach this. Please do all indicate your preference. There will be options of how to approach it in a content-sense further down the line (including how many of you are directly affected).

I vote for GM led, since that sounds like better story-wise from where I'm sitting. Unless I'm reading that wrong. Plus it might be nice for things to go your way for once, Jig. :P

It'll be hard coming across it by luck...especially since we're going on a picnic and all.
But...
R-r-r-rig it, Jig!
(Courtesy of me being sick, no more new puns on your name for just the moment, my darling Jigalo. Oh wait. Never said I wouldn't reuse old ones ;') )

I might just go to bed after my 6 am dosage now. Thank the gods.

DAMMIT why must you face us with all these decisions, boss?

Uhhh. Yeah I guess it'd be nice for a change of pace, so why not? Take it away, GM.

EDIT: Sweetest of dreams this time, @MyCatGinger!

I just read the first page of the IC again and oh my god oh my god
It's been three months even oh my god oh my god
I love you guys so much ;;
I'm going to be really, really upset if/when Wolf Manor comes to an end.

We only do have...I swear, I read this. << About 10 days of fun and then we all may or may not go home.
...because we're dead.
Darn Sol the were-kitten!

3 months?????????

Holy poo.

I've always wondered, when a group has a good dynamic, why split it up? Getting dedicated players together is one of the hardest things to do on this site, and whenever an RP ends, everyone in it wordlessly decides to roll the dice and try to make a new one. I don't get it. =I

Oh my goodness no nope don't think about it we've still got so much time left! But yeah, I hear ya Flavs. I guess it's just cause writers like feeling it out with new people so their skill and stories evolve and adapt and all that. Although when you put it like that, it does sound kind of funny, doesn't it?

ALSO good news: I got cast for ensemble roles in a New York production of RENT!

The really fun part is that it's been about a year since the first obviously-evil invitations of Woll Manor. I broke my arm on the 10th August, which I remember because that was the weekend of gigging and juggling at a festival and not a weekend for spending in hospital where I couldn't get access to speedy painkillers or toast without marmalade (yes, they even went out of their way to make toast inedible, just for me).

For the record, the Who Killed Mr. Jig? game will be returning at some point, though I can't promise when, so if this has somehow died or even finished by that point, there will definitely be a game to which you will all be invited.

Oh my god, wait, that's right!
Isn't that sometime around when @Callthecops was going/had gone to a concert, and we started off a bit wonky and then everything went deliciously?
And, touchwood, continues to go deliciously. :D
It's been that long, huh...

That additional feel when you experienced 'sleep paralysis' and it linked to a protagonist in a game you were playing and you've been too paranoid to play that game since ggwp

Gotta love them murder mysteries, right, folks?

Please don't kill Evelynn, Jigsus our Lord and saviour.

Speaking of things going deliciously, things appear to have stalled again here.

Operative word: appear. PM's are being sent. Things are happening.

Just for fun, I have compiled a list of the characters in order of who is most likely to die and who is likelier to die sooner. Obviously, I'm not telling you, but, hey, don't let your guard down. ^^

Suddenly I regret pushing for that thing in PMs.
