Howlin' Howland

I haven't received entries from two players, one of whom also hasn't voted, and there's another player (rocksniffer) whose sent me multiple entries but not told me which one is his final entry.

I'm going to send PMs out to the two players who haven't submitted entries and grant an extension until at least 6:00 PM ET tomorrow 11/4.  I don't want to lose either of the players who haven't submitted entries so if I don't hear back from them I'll probably extend the extension.

Sorry about the delay (herding cats), H'H

The deadline is 6:00 PM ET tomorrow so you have less than 24 hours.  Only three people have voted and only two have submitted entries so far, so please vote and get me your entry or ask for an extension.  If I haven't heard from any active players by the deadline I'll send them PMs.  Thanks.

Round 4 Entries:

1. Wine, Cressen? Jolly'up, 'Maester half-wit'.

2. Heretics! End war, pretend unity! 

3. "Jesus" f***ing quest

4. Her end was pyrrhic unveiling…

5. His enchanting woman pyromaniacally utilitarian.

6. Hearken emulators...Woman 'pyres' usurpers!

7. Woman conjures juniors, murders, humps wildly. 

Vote for your top 3.  Good luck.  Please try to vote for your favorite Round 4 entries and get me your entries for Round 5 by 6:00 PM EST next Thursday the 3rd.

Last round's letters looked hard to me but this round they look fun.

It looks like a free shadow didn’t want to play after all, Castellan dominates back to back rounds, and, in my opinion, Gabe was robbed this round but I don’t have a vote.

Round 3 Results:

1. "Princess..." conjurer prompted, "Go East!" (rocksniffer) 1+1+3=5

2. Brazenly voices nonsensicalities - grievous brain harm (Dolorous Gabe) 1+1+1=3

6. Your phantasm bewildered queen - North? East? Quandary! (Fragile Bird) 1+1+3+1+1=7

7. Bespoke veil never guarantees bonafide herald. (RhaenysBee) 1+1+2+3+1=8 

Standings:

Castellan 28 + 20 = 48

There are two players who have not submitted entries and one that has not voted.  I've sent them both PMs and I'm granting an extension until at least 5:00 PM EST tomorrow.  Feel free to change your entries between now and then.

I'd like to get all of the entries and votes in by 6:00 PM EST tomorrow and so far only 3 players have submitted entries and only 2 players have voted.  Please try to get them in, I'll send PMs out to players who haven't tomorrow afternoon.

I screwed up, there's a player who hasn't submitted an entry or voted this round and I missed it.  I just sent him a PM, I'm going to give him some time to reply.

There's one player that hasn't voted yet, I've sent them a PM.  Everyone has submitted entries but several of you haven't told me what your final entry is.  Once I have all of your final entries and rockniffer's votes I'll post the results.

Round 2 Entries (Bloodraven):

1.   Many timed person. One "looker."

2.  Mystical tree person? Ocular loss.

3.  Raven cultivated little ravener. “Greensight indispensable: Fly!"

4.  Quarantine! Bloodraven has greenlit wildfire cremations.

5.  "Mmm tasty paste" - omnipotent lord

6.  quirks: bastard, Hand, geriatric warlock & culinarian.

Try to get me your responses and votes by next Friday, 10/14/2022, at 5:00 PM EST.  If you want an extension, ask.

I swear to you, I am using a random number generator to come up with these letters and I am not trying to be cruel.  Good luck this round.

Round 1 Results:

1. Murderous, jabbering after jinxed royal nobble. (Ser Not Appearing) 1+1+3+1+3+3+4 = 16

2. Warlock and sorcerer. Verily blue. (Eternally_His) 1+1+1+1 = 4

3. Weeps a shade vengeful blue (Dolorous Gabe) 1+1+1+1 = 4

4. Warlock? Arson survivor? Vaguely blue? (RhaenysBee) 1+1+2 = 4

5. Warlock attempted sorrowful vengeance.  Boohoo. (Jez Bell) 1+1+2+2+2+2+2 = 12

6. Mostly just a jaundiced, repulsive necromancer. (Fragile Bird) 1+1+1+3+3+2 =11

7. Marine journey appalling. “Joined” repugnant navy. (Castellan) 1+1+3+3+1 = 9

Ser Not Appearing, despite his complaints, won the round.  Almost everyone thought Jez’s entry was second.  I was happy to see that everyone gave their first place votes to players who tried to tackle the brutal MJAJRN letters.

Standings:

Ser Not Appearing 16

Jez Bell 12

Fragile Bird 11

Castellan 9

Eternally_His 4

Dolorous Gabe 4

RhaenysBee 4

Please check my math, I may have made an error.

I’ll post the Round 3 letters shortly, but you have until noon EST tomorrow to finalize your round 2 entries.

I've had a request for a modest extension.  You have until noon EST 10/7/2022 to make changes.  If you need more time than that let me know.

I've got entries from everybody who said they're interested in playing, but two of you have sent me multiple entries without telling me your preference (I've sent them PMs).  I hope to start working on the posts with this round's entries and next round's letters around 5:00 PM EST tomorrow (Thursday 9/29/22), feel free to make changes to your entries until then and let me know if you need more time.

Good luck to you all 

I hope to get the entries to you by Thursday evening EST.  I've received PMs from 5 of you and potential entries from 2.

@Eternally_His and @RhaenysBee, it would help if you sent me a PM.

This has been a brutal round and all but one of you is struggling so don't let it get to you, sometimes the letters are just cruel.

If anyone can teach me how to use usernames that send notifications to the user in normal post please let me know, I haven't been able to figure it out ( I mean like this @Dolorous Gabe).

Please try to get your entries in by Monday September 26^th.  If you want an extension please let me know.

For those of you who already haven’t done so, please send me your entry in a personal message with your username (thanks Gabe, Jez, and Ser).

Also, I recognize brutal letters when I see them, if anyone can pull off a great entry for MJAJRN I will be in awe.

Eternally_His, I think this is the first time you’ve played the game so if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.

You can join.  We aren't starting the first round until next week.

Gabe, you've got your marching orders.

I'll try to get everyone the topic and letters next week.  I hope to run one round a week.

Also, if everyone includes "acrophobia" and their user names in the subject line of their messages with their first round entries I'd appreciate it.
