What kind of character name is that? :??
No matter how powerful one becomes, there is always someone stronger. That's why I'm in a constant pursuit of power, so I can be prepared when an enemy tries to take advantage of me.

There are 14 or more definitions of the word character, according freedictionary. So please give us a little more specific hint. Nobody likes to poke in the fog and run into death. :D

@Koni: Had this been in Swedish, it would have been two of them... And it's really not 14 different definitions, just a few which have some diffuse meanings. Not that it matters to you now :tongue:

Can anybody explain the rules to me? Why am I dead again? Isn't there always a safe letter for the next poster after somone's hanging? (In this case it was SWST with his D, who should have caused a save letter for my S imo). ;|

Because those Safe Letters are applied only when there is the game master's turn. As you can see, there are 2 now, because you both died.

I can't find a passage in the rules about applying safe letters "when there is the game master's turn". I only read about a safe letter (after the first 5):

7.3- Players can ask for one "safe" letter after each hanging, that safe letter will be spent whether the next letter is wrong or not, ...

and so I gave always a safe letter to the next poster after somebody got hanged, when it was my turn as game master. 8|
But maybe every game master can do it as he is pleased to. :)

You are correct, there are game masters that do as you said (including me), and there are those that play as GC now. Weird, huh? :D

But ok then :shh:
