Grimm's Fairy Tale Mafia - Day 13

[Ben Linus]

7 roles... 7 dwarves...

[Jack Shephard]

Dallon Redwarlock has arrived

I shall sit at the table of love, as love for thy neighbor is the greatest commandment, and from a universal love for all things will come peace and happiness.

[Quokka]

I am going to sit at the Table of Happiness. It sounds the best.

[Sockys2023]

Changed Tables. Now Happiness.

You still appear to be at the Love table according to the poll.

[Lunatella]

Changed Tables. Now Happiness.

You still appear to be at the Love table according to the poll.

I never was at the love table. But it says I'm at Happiness here.

[Paul Stevens]

That love table is looking awfully intimidating. It is filled with trolls, ogres, dragons and gargoyles.

The after-party should be quite interesting. Hubba hubba.

[Julinook]

It looks like the Table of Peace is saving me a seat.

[Snapshot]

That love table is looking awfully intimidating. It is filled with trolls, ogres, dragons and gargoyles.

I choose happiness because happiness is good.

[S~V~S]

Hi Guys

I got a message from Rox, and bea is at work and can't post to the players at this time, so she asked me to do it.

First, Roxy IS OK. She has been hit by a car in a parking lot. She is bruised up and hurting, and they are keeping her overnight at the hospital for observation, but she will be OK. But she will be absent for a day or two, and bea has a psycho work schedule, so things may move a bit slowly in here.

Lets all send Roxy thoughts of Peace, Love, Happiness & Healing and she will be with you as soon as she can be

[Jack Shephard]

That love table is looking awfully intimidating. It is filled with trolls, ogres, dragons and gargoyles.

The after-party should be quite interesting. Hubba hubba.

I wish love upon our hostess and hope that she recovers swiftly.

[Ben Linus]

The Purple Sea Elves will offer a prayer to our dark and watery god that Roxy makes a swift recovery.

[Operator]

That is terrible. Thanks for letting us know SVS. Roxy, my thoughts are with you, and I pray for your speedy recovery.

[Sockys2023]

Changed Tables. Now Happiness.

You still appear to be at the Love table according to the poll.

I never was at the love table. But it says I'm at Happiness here.

My mistake, I got you mixed up with someone else!

Yikes, I am glad she will be ok!

[Operator]

[Rachel Green]

Nice Chart, Shand ! May I offer you a scholarship at the Pixie Charting Academy? You seem a natural.

Good thoughts Roxy, feel better!

[Operator]

The honor, kind sir, will be mine.

[Jack Shephard]

so i had an idea on how we can combat rumpelstiltskin's ability. i know it would be really annoying to read, but during the night we could talk normally and during the day wecouldrunourwordstogetherlikethis.

[Paul Stevens]

Hey, it's not called the Table of Loooooove for nuthin'!

I'm glad to hear it wasn't too serious, Roxy. Very Scary.

[Quokka]

Hope you feel better soon, Roxy.

[Prisoner 509378]

Roxy, very glad to hear you're not seriously hurt. I and the other lost underworld gargoyles will be praying for your recovery.

And Shand, that chart was great! We gargoyles would be pleased to offer you a job charting unexplored bits of the lost underworld. Unless it's we that are lost and not the underworld itself, in which case we could still use a cartographer.

Thanks for stepping in for me SVS. I actually have tomorrow off and work late on Monday so things shouldn't slow up too much. That said, I just now got in from work so I'm not quite sure what time I'll be up tomorrow but once I do get up I shall be around most of the day. (Unless Diggz has something planned I don't know about besides watching Dr. Who. ) Let's everyone keep Rox in our thoughts and I'll hold the fort down till she's up and running again! Thanks for being so patient with us everyone!

[bea]

Shand - I must also chime in with the awe of the seating chart. It is truly a thing of beauty! Makes me want to decorate the heck out of those tables now. Nice tall centerpieces so you can maintain visual contact across the table...pretty napkins, charger plates, matching water and wine gobblets..... I had real sillz at that sort of thing.

OMG - I *just* now realized! You even sat me on the correct side of the table!!!!!! I am left handed so I always have to sit at the far end so I don't bump elbows whilst I'm eating. :notworthy:

[NurseWilgy]

How awful!! Feel better soon Roxy!!

[Rachel Green]

so i had an idea on how we can combat rumpelstiltskin's ability. i know it would be really annoying to read, but during the night we could talk normally and during the day wecouldrunourwordstogetherlikethis.

Someone in another game I was playing on another forum had to do that as a punishment or something and the effect it had was sort of similar to the way the page looks when someone posts a giant image. You had to use the bottoms scroll to read posts. Way annoying. But that would work if maybe we only run together three or four words at a time. Easier to read too. Good idea

[Chuck]

Yay game! Going to read over everything so far.

Yes, a couple of words at a time or even a sentence at a time, whatever works best. I think this will definitely minimize damage from rumpel until we can lynch him.

[Chuck]

Sorry. Was on the phone so I got distracted and took a bit longer.

The after-party should be quite interesting. Hubba hubba.

I wouldn't mind a little bit of ogre love, if you know what I'm saying.

I will be going with the Table of Peace. In hopes that we can have calm and serenity and love of our fellow man/elf/troll/whatever....before this turns into a bloodbath.

Also, I totally support this idea once the game actually starts. I think keeping it to a few words at a time would make it a bit easier though.

[Spooky Ghost]

So sorry for my tardiness. I shall like to sit at the table of Happiness!

I've only glanced at the thread, so now I shall go back and properly read

[Spooky Ghost]

Not sure how our lovely hosts will do it, however, I would still accept the word even if crunched up together.

Roxy, hope you are doing well. Car accidents suck.

[Roxy]

When Rumplestiltskin picks a word no matter how you post it - it will count. Evenifyoupostlikethis o r l i k e t h i s.

Fiddlesticks.

[Ben Linus]

In light of this revelation by our hostess, Dilan Bluemoss will be resorting to obscure synonyms for common utterances in order to circumvent any potential reprisal by that dire goblin-like fellow.

[Larry David]

:oHope you are doing well, Roxy!

[Young Lady]

The Illustrious Me, is beguiled by the tactics employed by our fair compatriot Dilan Bluemoss.

As you all well know, we Moonlit Krackens are not known for our expansive vocabularies. Butterscotch.

[Perd Hapley]

What if we spoke in another language?

Mssr. Bluemoss, a gentleelf of unparalleled acumen had a magnificent brainwave

Dit is ook een goed idee als we kiezen een makkelijk te taal te vertalen, zoals Frans, Spaans of Nederlands

Yay Nederlands!

We could use pretty much any language we want, theoretically, and have people Google Translate it, right? It's a lot of work, but it might be worth it to stop Rumpelstiltskin controlling lynches.

[Larry David]

What if we spoke in another language?

I don't have the attention span to learn more than 1 language.

[Saito]

Google translate hasn't worked well for me when I'm just trying to tranlate things native speakers say into English (it gets words in the wrong place and many times garbles the message so that its unintelligible) but if we were translating the message through google and then translate it back using google it would probably do fine. I'm willing to try that if it's what the group wants to do.

Also, how do you all know that you are elves and other things? I googled my name and got nothing.

[Prisoner 509378]

Good idea, using the same program on both ends. I agree that's less likely to lose stuff in translation. And it's listed as your location. You're vicerine of the yellow gypsies, for example. Who knew they even had vicerines?

[Ben Linus]

Dilan Bluemoss would like to observe that the Google Translate method, in addition to being clumsy and cumbersome, will do little to prevent Rumpelstiltskin from carrying out his mandate, as he can simply select a frequently used morpheme from whatever dialect is being employed. Unpredictability is the key.

[Young Lady]

The more elaborate the methodology employed, the less effective we become in actually producing significant discussion and results. Our purpose and mission become, if you'll forgive me, "Lost in Translation".

[Phoebe Buffay]

I choose Table of Happiness!

The seating chart diagram is the best thing ever!

Feel better Roxy! I'm sending big hugs your way!

OMG - I *just* now realized! You even sat me on the correct side of the table!!!!!! I am left handed so I always have to sit at the far end so I don't bump elbows whilst I'm eating. :notworthy:

Lefties unite!

[Ben Linus]

Quite right.
