So, is anybody familiar with Dark Souls? I'm not, other than scanning the Wikipedia article on it. As with any game color, it's tough to say how much effect the source material might have on the actual game mechanics, but my brief research makes me think bonfires will surely play a role here. They're mentioned in the opening color, so duh, but bonfires seem pretty important to the Dark Souls-verse. I played through the game earlier this year so I have knowledge of a few things that may affect the game. For example (not sure if I should tell this or not) humanities restore you from hollowed to human.

I have received my PM.
abstain, do please elaborate on anything you know from the color that might be useful. I presume it's all available online anyway, but it'll be easier seeing it explained in Mafia terms.
And I must apologize that, for the next week and a half, I expect that I shall be extremely tired, and not up to my usual sharpness of play, as I'm chickensitting for my mother after work every day.

Thus far, the following players have not confirmed either privately or publicly according to my handy spreadsheet:
gnarlycharly Paulwhoisaghost Silver Jan Sister Coyote Swammerdami
While I will start with or without their confirmations by the end of today, I would much prefer to have everyone checked in before we start - I want to make sure critical questions are answered before the game is underway if at all possible. If anyone has offboard access to any of those five folks and can let them know that the game has started, I'd appreciate it muchly.

I've never received a PM. I noticed I had 25 messages in my inbox; I deleted them several hours ago in case an inbox limit was the problem. ... BTW, flakiness has increased for my fragile Wifi connection -- a ready-made excuse if I fail to Lynch/misLynch anyone. ![8-|](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/nerd.png)

swammerdami: PM re-sent. I think it didn't get sent properly from my end last time; please check and see if it's there now.
gnarlycharly has also checked in. That leaves just Paul, Jan, and Sister Coyote.

The urge to post Mrs. Peacock's bit about breaking the ice is extremely tempting.

Why am I watching a Go game, and is it a game of significant importance?

Ok I'll bite. Why am I watching a Go game, and is it a game of significant importance? I got tired of the scorpion but lack the artistic sense to think of or draw a fun animation. If I get more than one complaint I'll switch to a different avatar image -- but no guarantee it will be any better. This particular game features several groups on the brink of death. It was played in 1953 by Go Seigen (Black) vs. Fujisawa Kuranosuke (White) and is one reason Go Seigen, now age 100, is often considered the greatest player ever. In other news I've received my PM. I hope to emulate Go Seigen and help guide my team toward surrounding our enemies. ![B-|](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/notamused.png)

gnarlycharly has also checked in. That leaves just Paul, Jan, and Sister Coyote. I have PM'ed Jan, Paul, and Coyote on the Straight Dope to remind them to come back in.

Just it was like "hey that's Go!" ... I had that wild hair up my ass, to learn and play the game, at one point.

Again, I just know the primary basics, but, to borrow from chess notation: Let's put not one, but two stones to the immediate left of the stars. ??

GAME ON!!!!!
I'm locking this thread, though I will leave future Day and Night threads open for ease of reference I doubt there will be much need to refer to this one.
