Welcome to The ORG of the Phoenix Lucius Malfoy! The Ministry has weighed your wand and can now gladly return it, hoping that with it in hand you may do many great things here! As you fight for the fate of the Wizarding World, you may use this Diary Journal board to record your experiences, thoughts, ideas, notes, strategies, reactions or any number of other things as you see fit. It is a private place which nobody other than yourself and the Ministers can see (until the game is over), and any posts made here will not count toward the total post count on your profile. You should also use this area to play all of your Challenges, and to privately ask any questions you have for the Ministers. Speaking of which - we'll also be popping in at least once every episode to ask you questions and to pick your brain. Here are some to start you off: 1. First Impressions! What do you think of your partner so far? How is Day 0 going? 2. How do you think beginning this Game with a partner will impact the way it plays out? How important is the chance to earn a mutual ID reveal? 3. What do you expect will happen on Sunday night? What else do you think might lie ahead in The ORG of the Phoenix? 4. Do you have any goals for yourself in this game? Any hopes for how your journey here may play out?

I will answer these quesitons later tonight.
I just finished the Cluedo org. I did not expect to get to FTC there and be playing these back to back. But you know me Peter, I can't do anything half arsed so expect myto see my full arese here and hanging out from tomorrow night. Unfortunately 'the Crack' may be the peak moment of my ORG career. It will be difficult to top, but I won't be able to help but try.
L.

Every crack is an opportunity. Good luck Lucius, and remember that you must never tell lies. ![](https://i.imgur.com/0iVaxFD.png)

Jesus, who have you stuck me with here Peter? Wood has all the social graces of a rain cloud. This is the second borderline unnecessary hostile message he’s sent me in two days.
I feel like I’m going to better off letting this guy be Racheled out so I can Tyson this thing.

Maybe I’m just Uber reactive because I was just in one of the most brutal vitriolic FTCs over the last 24 hours and everything feels like an attack.
Or maybe Wood sucks.
Like I don’t understand why he’s even here as a rep as I asked you about when I got my letter. You said he argued strongly for it noting he was at the battle of hogwarts and you reluctantly accepted. But then he doesn’t know shit about Wood. Like he just found out he was Scottish FFS? Why did he want this fucking random rep so bad if he knows nothing about him.
I was really looking forward to meeting my partner as well. Bleh.

I've decided to have it out with Wood. I'm already tired of his bullshit so I'm being upfront about it.
His response will determine if want to even bother with this guy.
If it sucks like his other posts, I'll have to work out how I throw my partner under the bus to someone else and have them actually believe it. That said, if we are split into other tribes, with his social skills I expect he's gone week 1 anyway.

Oh my god. He read my post and then just fucking left.
We had agreed to do the challenge at this time and he's now just fucked right off. I have a family and kids (I know he doesn't know that) but I arranged that time for a reason.
Seriously. Fuck this guy.

1. First Impressions! What do you think of your partner so far? How is Day 0 going? Um. the answer for both is they fucking suck, Wood and my Day 0. My feelings on Woody are pretty clear above. I was really looking forward to this ORG and having a partner to play with and navigate the game together. That initial post of his was shit. But I was going to let that slide and then that subsequent blow up. I know my headspace is fucked from that FTC with Brunette but what even were his posts?
2. How do you think beginning this Game with a partner will impact the way it plays out? How important is the chance to earn a mutual ID reveal? Well I thought it was going to be an amazing experience to have a true confidant to stick with and work with and share everything with and I am really fucking disappoitned that this has how it has turrned out. I don't think the ID reveal matters other than when your partner thinks your trying to fucking shalf them in the game for some reason when you ask them the verys same question. Are you trying to shalf me Wormtail. Perhaps you are given the partner you assigned me.
3. What do you expect will happen on Sunday night? What else do you think might lie ahead in The ORG of the Phoenix? Ideally we get sorted into seperate tribes and Wood is first boot from the other Side so I can be a free agent and join some other pair of people that know how to actually fucking communicate with people.
4. Do you have any goals for yourself in this game? Any hopes for how your journey here may play out? My hopes? My dream scenario? I got two words for ya! Natalie Anderson.

Okay so when you read this post game Woody, know that all of that above was, obviously, sent before you sent your full admission of responsibilty message WHICH was by far the one thing you needed to do to win me to your side.
I do feel like Woody and I could be an inconic duo here. Our brains work very differently and as I said to him, it's not like I'm an ORG God (although I did only just lose at FTC by the slimmist of margins to this King Daz guy who has won a bunch of ORGs according to Nay) so maybe I'm not too shabby. BUT there is definately things I can improve on. And if Woody is just a solid, dependable, loyal sort of gamer, well maybe I need a bit more of that and a little less spice. Wood on the other hand definately needs a bit more spice. So we could really compliment each other here.
PLUS we've already had a proper blow up and got over it. I can't imagine anyone else has done that. So now I actually feel really good with the Wood (catch phrase TM pending). And if we can keep being that honest with each other, well the sky's the limit.

I'm somewhat impressed that you've already gone through a roller coaster here with Wood. Hopefully things keep looking up and you have a wonderful Game ahead! ![:)](http://images.proboards.com/new/smiley.png) And congratulations/commiserations on Cluedo! I also had a tough FTC loss in my first US time game and know how awful a ringer it is to go through is so you have all my empathy ![:<3](http://i.imgur.com/L3NpwEv.gif) I probably couldn't have dived right into another straight afterward... though in hindsight that loss hurts a lot less now that I've got more a broader experience of Games under my belt (and plenty more losses too ![:P](http://images.proboards.com/new/tongue.png) ) . Hopefully this one can be a fun palate cleanser for you!

Peter Pettigrew I can't send fresh missives? I could sent to Igor cause he messaged me but I couldn't message HK or Alecto. Can you please fix?

Post by Peter Pettigrew on May 1, 2022 21:08:51 GMT 10
Weird. What exactly are you seeing? There should be a 'Create Message' button on the top-right of your inbox when you click 'Missives' in the header.

Where does the problem occur in sending the missive? Do you see the "Send Message" button when you click on their account?

Post by Lucius Malfoy on May 1, 2022 21:09:39 GMT 10
It says I don't have permission to send to them when I try and then it suggests I remove them from the message (leaving ony onis)

Post by Lucius Malfoy on May 1, 2022 21:10:10 GMT 10
So after clicking send it stops me and says I don't have permission

'Your message could not be sent. Remove the following members and try again: alecto'
This is the error message.
I logged out and back. But didn't fix

Hold tight, we're just figuring this out and will try and get this fixed asap.

Lucius Malfoy I'm going to log into your account and check this, but once I'm in there the forum will reject any posts or messages you try to do, as it'll detect two different IPs in the one account, and you'll likely have to log out and back in once I'm done to resume usual activity (it'll give a message saying invalid token/forgery error). So I won't go in until you like this post and are aware.

Post by Minerva McGonagall on May 1, 2022 21:25:45 GMT 10
I'll access the account now. It probably will allow you to continue browsing the board, but once I log-out of your account that is where you'd need to do the same and get back in. Hopefully we can get this sorted.

Lucius I have been able to send missives to a host account and two non-host accounts successfully, with no error messages. Can you try again and screencap the error for us if it appears?
