Lucky Number 11

Okiedokes.

**Mekboy**

I'm pretty sure 11 isn't lucky...

**Thor665**

The fact that we're all lucky numbers will be a little embarrassing for the first person to get lynched.

You're all lucky. Whether that's good or bad is another matter

**Drk_Oblitr8r**

I'm lazy and sorta impatient, so I'll start the game the day after tomorrow.

**Ultrafool**

YAY!

**Thor665**

Wait a minute...I went over 500 posts without noticing (*ahem* Dark Elf Boobage rules) and then the site "upgraded" me from a Sybarite with an Agoniser to a Mandrake?

A Mandrake!?!

Oh ye gawds I weep.

**Manchu**

Yes, the rank tracks need work. Go over to nuts & bolts or PM yak about working on a refurb of the DE ranks if you're feeling creative. I've been thinking of a better Eldar system myself.

**Drk_Oblitr8r**

I'm starting the game in less than 24 hours, So if you were interested in joining, but have been thinking "Maybe if theres room..." Then hurry up and join, because you may have more luck than others. *nudge nudge wink wink*

It's ok, I have exams atm too, although I have my last two before wednesday next week.

**Drk_Oblitr8r**

Ok, I'ma send the emails out.

The last two places I might fill later during the game, depending on how things are going.

**Ultrafool**

Cool, now I have two stealer games going but I will probably be killed in thor's game.

**Drk_Oblitr8r**

I sentededededeed the PM's. If you didn't get yours, PM me and I'll send you out your character stuff.

**Manchu**

What about the game thread?

I'm working on it,

**Thor665**

Just as a question - will this be an open game or closed?

An open game is one where it is generally known what roles may or may not be appearing - this is how I run my game threads - I list out potential combinations so everyone knows that if there's an Inquisitor and an Imperial Psyker then there will be a Genestealer Magus but if there's an Inquisitor and a Genestealer Magus there might or might not be an Imperial Psyker, ect. ect. I keep it harder to break the game by claiming a few possibilities of what the game spread might be.

A closed game is one where there's total mystery about how much of any or all roles there are.

Closed, because I'm almost positive it'll change for various reasons

**Thor665**

This is your potential to add people in partway through?

I will caution you - extra late additions will make it harder to properly balance the game for equality to the opposing sides.

I meant something else I had in mind, but I think I found a way to keep equality in the game.

Sure, I'll write you in during Day 2.

I'll send you the PM soon

**Thor665**

Egads, so you are going to do mid game additions? It'll be interesting to see your planned method.

Remember that Jester idea? I'm going to save that for the next game, but I'm going to have something happen when they die.

**Manchu**

Wait, so if the Jester manages to die first it's game-over-Jester-wins? And if he doesn't, it's game over for him? Sounds like an unfulfilling role.

No, he'd still be on (side he's on here) but it's bonus points if he does

**Manchu**

oh, ok
