Q: If Beorn changes skin, will others see it?
A: No

Q: If I hide, how will I unhide
A: By any action really

I am curious as to how this will run

Can players rest to heal to more than 10 health?

Is there an official EOD?

Not sure what you mean. You should submit an action within 20h, so that I have enough margin to process everything within 24h and we keep up the pace

In the game that ran in the other forum, days were 48-72h long and that was boring. You want one turn/day

Btw if you have an action that affects other players (for example Radagast), you can only use it on a player in your location and the name you submit is the name of the player, not the name of a character in the game

Q: What happens if all characters in my win condition are dead? Does it matter how many I kill or whether I kill the last?
A: When all your enemies are killed, you will learn that you have achieved your wincon. From that moment, you should head to Elrond's house to win the game. It actually doesn't matter how many of your enemies you killed yourself.

12/16 actions received.

Zeus, VR, Whysper and Egix have yet to submit

I can post this update on turn 1 and turn 2, but after that no more. Players can die on turn 2

Sorry! For some reason I'm not getting emails from POG anymore. Last one was 9/3. But thanks for sending me a PM on FoL. I'm keeping POG open in a tab for now and will check at least once a day.

It is best if you instantly receive my updates.

Go to Options and tick the "Receive Email Notification of New Private Messages"

When you share location with another player, the dynamics of the game change significantly, as you will have to decide whether you wish to ignore, kill or team up with that player.

You will only have 20h for chatting and timezones might make that challenging

Imagine letting a forum access your emails

Just compulsively check all your forums 7 times a day like a healthy person instead

Q: What happens if someone achieves their wincon? The "murder all people" lose?

A: When someone escapes to the House of Elrond and wins the game, the game will last for X days more, the exact amount I will decide when it comes to it, based on game flow. Maybe we are all ****ing tired of this **** and we quit immediately. The idea is that you try to achieve your wincon with the characters that are still in the game. Example: If gollum escapes with the ring, the Necromancer should make sure he kills all players that are left in the game to co-win.

A co-win is of course not as glorious as the real win, but it is something

But for some reason all emails from POG just stopped after 9/3. Even the daily update on the "Puzzles and Other Games" subforum is no longer arriving. And I checked my spam folder and didn't see anything.

there are so many places to check. The toilet, walking up the stairs, in the lift, during work meetings, when out to dinner, at your wedding, in your own casket

I am all okay with my forums notifying me by email. It's not like they don't HAVE my email address.
