"Somefather" indeed...

I wasn't talking to you, underling.

I just added more to the first post: SO, UH, HOW DO I PLAY?

Also, the eight of you have all picked different initial villages.

Thank Xar! But unless you want to see Deathburg and Veltville on the map, a couple of you should tell me the names of your villages.

Odin wrote:The Revelations posted so far (the first four), are doing this. Each deity approaches one person, and claims to be the deity of X. The person believes it because the deity acts in that domain. Excellent. You have Prophets.

...yes, indeed...
I was worried.
...based on what I wound up writing.

I pm'd you what I wanted my village to be called. Did you get it?

Yes, I got it. Veltville and Deathburg are directed at two others.

Menolly, how does one do italics and make other changes to fonts in the signature?

Same way as when you post, caam.
Signature takes BBC code.
You're limited to how many characters though.
And I believe that includes the characters of the code.

Thank you Odin

I think my inner muse has started singing again. I haven't been able to write anything in so long. But that took me about a half hour and it just came tumbling out.

Hehehehe...it seems that Lliannon was just a little put out that you gave the credit for it to me and not her. She'll get over it tho.

I'm still a bit confused at how this all works, but I'm sure I'll catch on once it actually gets going and I watch what the other players do.

Thanks, Menolly!!

Well I can,t believe it but I did my Revelation, its a bit crude but for a first timer I happy with what I did. I could have written more but I keep it for next time

I actually enjoyed writing looking forward to writing some more.

This brings up a question for when we do submit Turns, SomeFather, sir.
What format shall our submittals take?
Do you wish for stories to back up our actions in our submittals?
Or submit bullet lists of our actions only (to make your job easier), supporting our actions (once processed) in the Game and/or Stories thread(s), if we feel a need to do so?

My preference is to keep my writing between those who have to read it only as much as possible. But, I also know of your dislike for long stories...

Looking forward to your reply.

And, nice job, Alcifer!

On the subject of village names, I don't want the bother of coming up with something creative, so I've decided to go for the deliberately unoriginal and obvious (you'll see). Now if only I could work out my reveal...

Post by **[Syl]** » Thu Mar 05, 2009 6:33 pm

I dunno, I kinda like Veltville.

I can't really think of anything better (I've been waiting to sit down and get to work on all this stuff).

Go with Veltton.

I have *one, two, three, four, five, six...* at least six other identities here who know exactly how she feels.

OK, there's only three left, and they're all experienced players. Let's set the Revelation deadline for Sunday, the 8th, at 11PM GMT. (You can always see GMT here: wwp.greenwichmeantime.com) Then we'll get to Turn 1.

AND

Turn 1 will begin with you. Revelations are just a, "Hi. I'm Bubbah, God of Gravy." It just introduces you and your Prophet. After all Revs are posted, I'll open the Game thread, and post a deadline for Turn 1 submissions.

You did answer me privately, and for that I thank you. However...
From a few private communications I've had,
some of the newer players to this style of game seem to think we post our turn submittals in thread, and are planning on seeing what others do to base their own moves on.

Could you please elaborate a bit more on how submittals work here for everyone to see?
Do you want PMs or emails?
Bullet lists and/or reinforcing stories (yeah I know, I already asked you, but again, I think an explanation needs to be here)?
etc., etc., etc.,

I'm still adjusting what I send to the AllFather each Turn...

Thanks.
