NoTW XVII - The Stealer of Souls (Restored:king:)

SIGNUPS ARE CLOSED!

The Game Thread is HERE.


In the past year, we members of the NoTW community have suffered a severe setback. In a small slipup, our generally gracious ruler Thunderfall deleted the records of some of our prior exploits. However, thanks to the committed work of Catharsis, we have recently managed to recover some of these records, although they do remain in an unreadable form (See the NoTW information thread for details).

I therefore propose a type of game.:)

Instead of allowing the recovered NoTWs to remain in unreadable text file format, I suggest that we act them out and repost them. This would restore some of the hard work put into these NoTWs, and return them to our forums for public comsumption.

If you wish to reprise your role from our first attempted project NoTW XVII- The Stealer of Souls, please post below. The most ideal solution is for the original player to reprise his or her original role. There are also many roles that are open to the public, seeing as the previous holders have since left the forum. Please feel free to claim the role of somebody who has left our community.


Instructions for the NoTW Restoration Project

1. After all signups are filled, a game thread will be started by the person acting as the game's GM. (In this case Renata)

2. Questions about the restoration, and prompts for people to post, should be posted in the signup thread, as opposed to the game thread.

3. The purpose of this restoration is for each person to post what their character said, at the correct post number that they said it. (ie: Renata makes the first post as she is representing zxcvbnm. The second post will also be made by Renata, as it was also made by zxcvbnm. The third post was made by rheinmetall, and will be made by the person representing rheinmetall.....)

4. When it is time for the person you are impersonating to post, copy what they said in the attached text file in the first post of this thread and post it in the game thread. It will of course be necessary to add colour/formatting for accusations, item votes, smilies, ect.

5. Corrections of the original Author's spelling, grammar, punctuation, ect, are of course encouraged.

6. If you wish to comment on the game itself, you of course may. However, this should probably be done after the post you are transcribing and distinguished by dotted lines, spoiler tags, ect.

7. Check the text file periodically to make sure you know when one of your character's posts is coming up.

8. This is quite a big project, so good luck to us. :)

I hope this generates some interest in restoring these games! I still remember reading most of the NOTWs while Niklas was running Castle Stonemoor, wondering whether to sign up for the next one ...

I've volunteered to handle zxcvbnm's (GM) posts.
 
Claiming the captain
 
I'm in as myself, of course. The conjurer rides again! Three of hearts forever! :D

(To be honest I played so badly in this one that it will be quite embarrassing to revisit it. At least I die early :lol:)
 
If this goes well and we do Castle Stonemoor.....

Oh dear.....now that was bad play.
 
In as myself, although I'm convinced that the main reason we're reliving all this is to rub Pinman's ego - He pwned in this game.

I love pwners :p. I love getting killjoy medal XD
 
In for the win, with the Beggar
 
To dispell these vile rumours, I remind everyone that I now cannot back out of reviving castle stonemoor....:cry:

((Admittedly a very good game, just not for me;)))
 
I'll take the Bard again. I have to confess I hardly remember this game. :p
 
This should be a good project, so I'll be in. I wasn't actually in this one, but I'll play as Rheinmetall, unless he is here of course.
 
Yeah, this one was awesome !! And I pwnd a little bit too, IIRC.

So, I'll gladly take my role again.

:)
 
reprising myself. I loved this one.
 
Claiming the captain

You are in for an interesting game: Leeksoup only posted once throughout the entire thing.

(Also, Charles Li posts in the thread once despite not being a player, so perhaps that should be represented. :dunno:)

The text files are not very good at all: they don't copy the formatting BBCode tags (which are quite important for noting lynch and item votes, obviously, and especially important to convey Rheinmetall's character in this game) and they don't make quotes very clear, either. That is fixable though, I can see formatting in the dumpfile so it would be possible to go through the text file and add the formatting, probably. :undecide:
 
I reckon that we will be able to figure out the formatting for most accusations and item votes. However, its going to be hard to get Rheinmetalls posts right without your help.....

As for Charles:lol:
 
Aw sweet, I wanna get lynched on day one again as myself! And yes, we're definitely redoing Castle Stonemoor. One of my finer achievements! :cool:
 
Excellent, Ill sign you up then.:lol:

You were being serious right? You want to join?
