Game Over- Shady Oaks Retirement Home [Basic Game] - TOWN WINS!
I really should have thought twice about using the name of a player and not “player x” or something for the example. I’m sorry @Turin Turambar!!! lol. I legit wasn’t trying to start a vote on you, my dude! Lol That being said, we DO need to pick SOMEONE, I guess he’s as good as any at this point. Hahahahah I really have no read on anyone just yet. It’s almost inevitable for some town to get lynched in a game and first lynch is a hard call.

We don’t HAVE to but it’s a list opportunity to not. Scum ain’t going to waste a night of offing someone so it really is rather important. And it’s a public vote

Double post. Sorry. Lol. But I had a question that I thought would be better asked in public instead of PM. Each time some one is lynched it is said if they’re town or Mafia right?

Tacos with fried onions does sound delicious pretty amazing. I am currently eating bbq chicken wings for dinner. This is probably going to put a target on me but…..they’re all flats. The only GOOD chicken wing. Drums are shite.

Sounds like something a filthy mafia person would say. lol It’s not uncommon for folks to toss out predictions or the like at the beginning of a game. You can use whatever deducing tools you want. Like, I could say since Ithi is runnin a game her husband is in and that she mentioned before how much he loves the mafia game and being mafia that she would indulge her husband’s whim and make him mafia. Or, the other way around. Would she instead tease Turin but makin him vanilla?

Overwhelmed newbie saying hello.
Oh absolutely. I’m a huge supporter. Adding this did nothing to drive plot though, is all I’m saying. If it had a real impact on the story then by all means.

Hmmmm, that’s a tough one. Aside from what I said about the imagery I’m not sure how much that isn’t production or direction. This show had a bigger budget than GoT, right? So, why couldn’t we get a grand shot of The Stone? The Blight looked cartoonish. The scene of Rand and Tam in the very first episode on the cart path looked so terrible. The grass and stone visibly looked like a back alley theatre set. I will also never forgive the poor directing that allowed Rand to disrespect his bow like that and just toss it like it’s trash. I will die on that hill. I also thought it really lazy writing to ice Perrin’s wife. The Seanchan leash and collars I think would have translated as the horrendous things as they were much more than pacifiers. I like how main characters are being offed. I always thought the bloat could have been avoided in the books if Jordan would have been willing to off more characters. So not a whole lot I’d change. Perrin didn’t need a wife. Moiraine and Shaun’s relationship didn’t need to be fleshed out. The story is about the Aemond’s Fielders. Neither of those pushes plot in any way. Make changes that push the established plot. A lot of the changes don’t do anything even remotely close. Not even going to mention the ridiculousness of women Dragons. The whole risk of Male dragons is the madness of that side of the source. Makes no sense to even have the taint at all if there can be women dragons. It’s just forced.

Hahahahaha. Not a book purist at all. I understand the necessity of change for the screen. Absolutely. The changes I dislike are the symbols that had no real reason. The serpent ring, the trefoil leaf and Waygates. None of those changes push a narrative but are exactly the things I wanted to see. Costume design has been terrible. I love what they did with the other things I wanted so I continue to watch but over all, it’s just not that good to me.

Hello…..again….and for a first time
Hello Dragonmount. Feels good to walk your streets once again though so much is different. You really can’t go home again. I’m Millon. I was active here well over ten years ago. I did pop back in from time to time to see how things were but I never really stuck it out. Too busy “looking for home” instead of trying to see what’s here now. “Hey! What went into the old Blockbuster Rental over on fifth? Oh. A Spirit of Halloween. Makes sense….” I was mostly in the White Tower Social Group though I was in The Band, Black Tower and Kin. Not a whole lot though aside from the Tower. I’ve only ever read the entire series at length once believe it or not. I read the first nine more times than I care to think about though. Just life got in the way. Not because I’m particularly fond of the first nine. I forced myself to find time to finish it when it ended. That’s all. I find it hard to read anything anymore really! lol. I am filled with gross disappointment for most of the show. I think they absolutely NAILED channeling and shadowspawn and most of the casting is pretty fantastic. I guess I’m writin a new intro because I’d really like to see what’s great about this place today and not filtering it through memories. Kinda like watching the show! Hahahahaha. I’m a single dad of a ten year old special needs kiddo. Of course, a fantasy nerd. I paint Warhammer figurines and I enjoy working on my D&D campaign setting though I don’t actually play (yet) lol. Critical Role really re-ignited that interest about ten or so years ago. Dont seem to have much of an attention span for new TV shows or movies or things on TV. Unless you want to get down with Bluey discussions! I’m down for that! Greatest bloody cartoon ever. Not a big sportsball guy but GO BILLS!! I’m glad to be back though. Really hoping I can stick around again. I’ve built some of the greatest relationships of my life in this place. Friends I’ve never even ‘met’ but I consider closer than most of my family and friends. I’m glad to still see some of them here. Looking forward to meeting new friends as well. uhhhhh, yeah. That’s it. Good to meet you all.

Still goin to watch 3 though because j hate myself lol. I love the shadowspawn, channeling and so far the cast is pretty great. I’ll refrain from the negatives 😉 lol.

The "How y'all doing?" Thread
Many good hellos!! I am Millon. A Der’Manshima Warder of the Cuendren. I have no idea how to see how long I’ve been here hahahaha. Long enough maybe? but not quite long enough. I started reading the series because my older brother was a jerk and got sick of me eaves dropping on him and his friends when they played D&D. So he handed me The Eye and I completely fell in. This was my intro into reading fantasy. I haaaaaaated the space between releases until I found this space. The debates, discussions, ART, theories in between each book and the post release discussions and ramped up furor. Was almost more enjoyable than the material itself lol. My favorite characters are Bayle and Egeanen Shipless and then Hurin. The moments we got with those characters, to me, were so well written. You got so much of their characters in such short spaces and better written than a lot of the main characters! lol. Like, when Bayle says “hey, you want to see all this cool stuff I collected?” Obviously not quoting lol but that moment of the gruff sailor bein vulnerable and showin his boyish collection and sharing why he became a captain in the first place are just great ways to flesh out the character. Egeanin, though you don’t get to see it happen “on screen” risking herself with being with Bayle and her struggle with breaking away from her culture. Hurin just bein the bestest goodest boy in all the series. Just great. He really was like a bloodhound made into a human. light help me I just can’t with the show. Not a purest though! That’s not it all. I completely understand the need to make alterations for a screen. Absolutely. My dislike comes from changes that absolutely didn’t need to be changed. The symbolism of the entire lore had no need to be changed. The great serpent. Gone. The Trefoil leaf. Gone. The blight looking like a cut and paste graphic from an early 90s video game. The hill I will absolutely die on though is the absolute disrespect Tand has for that bow when he just TOSSES IT ASIDE LIKE A PIECE OF TRASH IN THE VERY FORST EPISODE. Awful. I bloody love the Shadowspawn and channeling though. Holy hell is that so. Damn. Good. lol
