I think storyteller said something about starting thursday so the day/night cycles line up correctly. I’m betting we’ll be up and running tomorrow.

eta: nevermind, I just re-read that post. First day will last until 6/28. Maybe we’ll be up even sooner than tomorrow!

Yup. Going to play frisbee with my daughter before bedtime and starting Day One immediately after. Look for it around 9-ish or thereabouts.

Since the game hasn’t actually started, I’ll go ahead and chime in: why not roleplay someone else, so you don’t risk giving your role away? There are other characters in the story, right?
