[QUOTE="Goonalan, post: 5561952, member: 16069"] On stage Ignatius and a half-dozen other Council members huff and puff and generally point and... there seems to be some sort of disagreement- raised voices, it's difficult to tell what with the chanting, belching competitions and associated rambunctiousness. Clearly the time however is approaching, the lottery results are soon to be revealed. [OOC]Here's the timeline (real time) for events- tomorrow night (Monday evening GMT) I will be posting a few more instructions, a nod to some of the rules of the game- mostly about how your posts should look (particularly in combat), just to help those- like myself, who are new to this format. I'll also talk briefly about a few House Rules I have- I've not got many and if people don't like them I'd be happy to put them back to RAW (Rules As Written). All this will be in the OOC thread tomorrow evening (late on) for you to peruse. On Tuesday or Wednesday night (depending on PC activity in this thread) the lottery results will be revealed- we all know there's not going to be any surprises- you guys are going. However, each Dwarf selected for the mission is expected to come on stage, in any order after the names are drawn, and make a little speech- think of this as a Miss World competition, your speech should contain the following- 1) Your name, 2) the guild or union you represent (if you're not in a Guild or Union- Marded (perhaps) then you need to make one up), 3) why you think that you have been selected for this mission, 4) what you hope to achieve, 5) and finally, a rousing last line to stir up the Dwarven masses and fill them full of cheer. Obviously you can dress it up a bit- make it sound glorious or funny, or... whatever really. The best speech will receive a free Action Point- voted for by yourselves. Once this is done then... to adventure. Waiting at present for Walking Dad to make his first post in this thread, fashionably late to the party (I know you're not about- this isn't a criticism).[/OOC] [/QUOTE]
