neta: and if you are a lorena type that technically quallifies you as being in possession of a penis but really is not within the spirit of the game to claim penis possessor.
also neta: can we try to be a little clearer this game? a VOTE restriction DOES NOT equal a POST restriction especially when the mod specifically says their will be no POST restrictions.
it just confuses the monkeys.
I am now assigning the roles randomly and I should be able to begin sending out PM’s fairly soon. Don’t panic if you don’t get yours right away. I am sending them out randomly(order wise too) and may take breaks between sending them. You’ll get it when you get it.
Everyone, turn on your PM capability NOW.
Well, that was ominous…
It’s been on. Just sitting here waiting.
Then again, Atlanta got 5 inches of snow on Sunday, and roads still aren’t passable in some places.
So you don’t want to use “Ey”, “em”, and “Eir”?
We of course don’t have to ask for Peeker, he has always been a Dick.
Confirming Role PM.
I’m Spartacus
We are still waiting for more than one player to activate PM capability on the Straight Dope Message Board.
Anyone want to post to instruct these folks how to do it? I did it so many years ago, I have no idea.
User Control Panel (“User CP” in the menu bar right up top): ‘Edit Options’ from the menu on the left, then ‘Enable Private Messaging’ about half way down the page.
Confirming.
I got mine. So who do we want to lynch first? I’m thinking Peeker if we want to keep this to a readable length. 
I’ve got my role, but don’t have time to play until Monday.
Confirminating receipt of my role PM.
I haz a role!
**You mean I finally shirked that mantle ? **
Just for that, I won’t make my obligatory “Trade Digger for Coppers” comment. 
Man I miss Haggle.
Yeah, I have to stop myself from asking Chrisk whenever I see him around the board when he’s going to start up the next game.
OK, so first game-related thought: Given the color, I think that it’s likely that we’re playing a power-role heavy game, here. With that in mind, I think it’s probably safe to say that we’re likely to have a full stable of the standard roles, like Detective, Doctor, Town Roleblocker, Vig, and probably a powered Scum team (probably a Godfather, Scum Investigator, and Scum Roleblocker, at least). I think I have a bad habit of leaving assumptions tacit, so let me just say up front that, pending evidence to the contrary, I will be assuming that we have many different powers.
