Umm yeah the answer to this is probably simple but i'm so dumb i wouldn't know it :( umm yeah anyway just a question about the authorize thing. Why does it apply for authoriztion twice? One is somewhere around the place where you choose if your light or dark the other is at the pull rope thing. And at the pull rope thing I authorized the player.... he got authorized and nothing happened. Umm yeah isn't he suppose to enter the game or something? Umm if you could answer that thanks ^_^

I would guess that it warns the imms twice, so s/he can be authorised *before* reaching the bell pull, and not have to wait. Authorisation is basically to confirm that they chose an 'in character' name.

As for why the player doesn't advance immediately, it usually works for me. Maybe he didn't pull the bell at the right time. Authorisation doesn't "push" you into the main game, it merely makes it possible.

Ok thanks for that.
