Hi Sonia,

you can put me down for editing the first 3 DRs, if that's ok. I'm pretty sure I can do more later on if necessary, though.

Concerning the DR roles you already have my wishlist :wink: Apart from that I'll be absolutely fine with anything you pick for me - especially after seeing the poems you chose :9:

I'm hopeing to upload the first poems this evening! :mrgreen:

great, thank you :) I will update the MW for now. So you'll get 3, 51 and 56 for now. 56 is not technically a DR, only a long poem divided into smaller chunks. So this one will be quite quickly assembled.

aww thank you, I'm glad you liked them. :9: Yes I have your wishes, I thought maybe there would have been some more now you saw the doc sheets. But ok, I'll consider those and choose the rest. I guess we will take the bulk of the female roles as far as we can, but we need to cross-dress a few times as well. :lol:

Adrian, so I also put you down for three DRs for the time being, you can take the Canterbury tales, since you are reading the bulk of it anyway :mrgreen: , then also Section 103 and 108 (3 roles each). If you feel ok for a bigger editing job, holler and I'll give you a more challenging poem ;)

Thank you, Sonia. Let's wait until I've done at least one of these before looking for anything bigger.
Best,

Here's section 93, narrator for PL @ 13:58

I did my best, but it's along time since I heard any middle English. If you hate it, do say so, and we can swap roles.

Best,
Adrian

Thank you, guys! :) So lovely to see everyone diving right in. I've updated the MW. I saw that our DPL, Anthony, was on today, so hopefully he's seen this thread and will get to PLing things soon.

:? urgh, I just finished assigning them all, when I saw your wishlist. Now I had to rearrange everything again. I think I have them all now, I was able to consider most of your claims but not all of them. Remember that you already have the narrator for Canterbury Tales, so you already had one too many. And in some DRs we need all 6 voices, so I had to put you in there as well and take another choice away from you. I hope my final choices are all ok for everybody. This was a LOT of work and it took me several hours.

I will update the MW by and by, please check there for your final roles...

Dear Sonia,
Section 3 has inconsistent assignments between the two columns.
Best,
Adrian
