Well, it appears that the response isn't quite what I had expected. Some good friends seem to have better things to do. None-the-less, I believe that we shall have a great experience during this outing. I must warn you that the Pennsylvania wilds here in the Appalachian Mountains are not without some minor annoyances. There are known to be two bears who live in this area. They usually stay away from the camp fires and hoopla of such a group of adventurers. However, they have been known to attack from time to time. I wouldn't lose sleep over it.

Let's check our roster:
1. tubby216 -- Naive Doctor
2. wildirishrose -- Naive Nurse
3. Dustin -- Mafia Role Blocker -- D2
4. Ann R. Kist -- Miller -- D1
5. Wave -- Deputy
6. Guido Capone -- Not-So-Beloved Prince -- N1
7. gtosdad -- Miller
8. Epod~Lady -- Mafia Godmother -- N2

There's just one little twist to this adventure which I forgot to mention. It's a bit of a game show as well; prizes to be announced later. Each day you can all cast one vote for whom you'd like to see removed from this journey. You may change your vote at any time. Once the sun begins to set, we will look at the tally to see who must leave. A tie results in the person receiving that number of votes first being expelled. Be sure that we all can hear your vote clearly by making it stand out from the rest of what you are saying. To ensure that we can all know who is voting for whom, I have a nice dry erase board with me. I will update it as often as I deem necessary. Once the player has been voted from the adventure, a helicopter will come and take them away so that will not be able to communicate with y'all. Of course, there is a nice waiting area near Gettysburg where they can all chat (or gripe) about what has transpired.

If you have any questions or concerns for me to address, please write me a note so that others won't hear you. If I feel that it needs to be addressed to the group, I will of course let y'all know.

The bus has departed, so we might as well begin our journey. I hope everyone has the comfort items and personal supplies they need. The sun has just risen on our first day . . .

awsome i am so stoked to be on this trip, seriously i won't have to dig any foxholes, worry about where my privates (no not those privates you sicko's) are. this is great

Jeez some big adventure for a game show a whooping 2 hours away from my house.

that's how he kept the costs down about half of us only have to travel a couple hours to get here. so i hope the extra money went to the prizes. if there's a cabin i call it i hate sleeping on the ground.

A game show out in the wilds. Ok

well look art the bright side gto if things get to rough out here we can all have a sleep over at your place.

Well this is going to be cool a week in the wild without wife or children right on. anyone wanna go fishing with me I brought the wife's fishing pole so we're all set.

On a side note if I find any Green Jesus growing wild I will let ya'll know.

Game show and Prizes sound like fun, but the bears put a damper on things. I would hope there's a cabin. I don't want to have to sleep in my tent

So there are no lurkers in this game. I guess luckie didn't RSVP.

I love to camp out in the wild. At least for an hour or two, but no longer than that. I hear that bears are attracted to trash, so you might not want to leave any lying around.

when exactly is the lynch deadline?

First lynch deadline would be 9:00PM tomorrow night per the sign up thread. The deadline for the next lynch after that would be 48hrs later (Thursday night at 9:00PM). Each 'night' will comprise of 12hrs starting after the lynch deadline until 9:00AM the next day.

The sign ups say 9pm. Meow that I have my tent set up by the fire, where are the porta~potties at ??

Edited to say : Jinx on wave lol

Haha, Jinx back

Edit--> If I remember correctly I'm supposed to say "Jinx on Jinx"

It's now midday . . .

The sun is low in the west. We are done walking today. I hope everyone has enjoyed the sights and sounds. You have 3 hours to prepare your sleeping arrangements. Of course, for legal reasons, I cannot allow any two hikers to sleep in the same tent/bag/hammock. (Stupid lawyers!)
