Okay, so I've finished off a quick read-through of the thread (something more in-depth will have to come tomorrow when I'll have all day to read, take notes, and comment), but until then, here's a rundown of my thoughts on this game as they stand now, haphazard and in need of sleep as they may be:
Nobody in particular strikes me as scummy. Tilde is closest, but the feeling's not particularly strong. That said, I will be looking closely at the two main cases (Tilde and AKid, I believe it is) tomorrow.
Exception to the above: Dagger, who looks like he's taking the "Cop cleared so nyeah" route, which always strikes me as a dickish move. I'll be keeping an eye on him, but I'll accept that you're town... for now. Oh, and next time you so much as mention a mass claim without calling the idea an unqualifiably stupid one, I will do everything in my power to inflict physical harm on you. Anyone who doesn't know why should read Shaman Mafia... during the night.
I spent 7.5 hours reading this. There should have been more than one page posted during that time. Seriously, that just hurts the town. (Yes, I am aware of the irony, thank you very much.)
About speculation of how the clock works (yes, I know it's not anywhere near discussion at the moment; I said this would be haphazard) it's spelled out that each role will add or subtract or both from the clock. I think it may be a flavor thing as to exact specifications on who moves the clock how much and in what way.
And finally, on a personal note, I should have been on MSN more often this summer, so I could have gotten in on this thing at the beginning. So awesome!
Also, I officially need to see what the Gomery pm says.
Again, something more indepth tomorrow, after sleep.
24 hours from this post, wither Swink's posts, or teh fire will burn him >:I
(OOC: Geez, I have a couple of bad days at work, and suddenly I'm getting death threats? :p)
Fellrag dashes at the nearest visible enemy goblin, bringing his scimitar around, an aura of flame and shadow surrounding it, around at the goblin's torso.
Now, if swinkee and company don't post again in fifty posts, then I'm going to get concerned, but at this point in the game, as long as I'm under the impression they are posting on a (albeit rather spread-out) consistent basis, then I'm okay.
I don't know about Fayul or Squiggler, but I've been feeling like **** the last couple of weeks. Tomorrow/Monday, I will reread, take notes, and then post a general overview of my impressions. Yes, I promised I'd do that last week, and didn't. This time I will.
MOD NOTE: I have been going on a policy of, as long as players have posted enough to satisfy me, that's okay. And so far, not many players have been falling behind on that. But swinkee could use a prod, I think.
I guess I earned it. And I meant to do the reread I promised last week, but a couple things happened: I got sick and exams hit. I figured I could deal with exams and still get along, but I could barely convince myself to do anything last weekend. I meant to say something, but that's just how lethargic I felt. So, on Friday, when I have a chance to actually do a good, long, full reread, with note-taking, I will, and make a decent, substantial, game-relevant post.
Your souls shall burn in the pits of Hell and so on. (I had two exams in the course of two hours today, and I've got an essay to finish; technically, I probably shouldn't be posting right now.)
Also, I'll Unvote because random votes are useless at this point.
Erse jabs his rapier at the troll, if it doesn't move from its position, and moves towards the cave entrance, ready to escape should the situation turn sour.

Fellrag, having held back a bit, worried about any unknown enemies who might be hiding on the first floor. As his allies move towards the door, he stands at the head of the stairs, sword drawn, eyes peeled for any enemies in hiding.
Surprisingly, nobody's commented about my not posting in the last few days (aside from SB over MSN :-/) and I probably, in hindsight, should have posted sooner, but, y'know, school and such.
I've got a few things I need to do, but I intend to look over the thread tonight/tomorrow/the day after and have something posted by Saturday at the latest.
Perhaps Swinkee has a list he has to post from each day?
You shall all be scorched by the Infernal flames.
And for those who are scared by the fact that they're agreeing with chamber, I'm agreeing with him twice; I've made my opinions clear on lynching the mod (ie. we shouldn't), and I was making a post last night questioning SG's multivote (referencing WD2, with Az who gained votes and WoLG whose extra votes didn't count) but my internet went on the fritz, so it never got posted. (I was also supposed to email someone something, but I try not to send or post things when my connection is unsure, and that kinda pissed him off).
Thrice, actually; just noticed his suggestion about everyone checking in.
Also, I will say nothing about any posting restrictions I may or may not actually have.
And I will say that I don't think anything in this game will be as it seems. Partly because of what we've seen already, partly because of my pm, and partly because I can see myself doing something like that, and thus wouldn't put it past Xyre to do so.
EWP: Cyan, ever think that there might be repercussions from lynching the mod? After all, he said not to trust him.

Again, something more indepth tomorrow, after sleep.I think I'm supposed to resent that remark. I mean, it's true, but I think I need to resent it on some kind of moral basis.
Now, I should probably start reading this so I know what is going on.
/in.
Forgetting someone?
So I went to see 300 tonight. Just my luck, every showing sold out 3 hours before I got to the theatre. Got a ticket for tomorrow before work instead.
