The only one Ive had any interaction with is Subby.....

That's funny. I was going to meet Subby 9 years ago, but his wife ended up going into labor with their second child and thus I never have met the guy.

Or was it Subby that went into labor?

9 years...... wow!

Same here. Except for the one where I met that ardent enthusiast guy. Whatever happened to him, anyway? :p

so are roles going out today or tomorrow?

I bought that dude pizza :)
Werewolf XVI: Return of the Wolves - Front Office Football Central

Will make sense if you read the thread for an "Artist Formerly Known as ArdentEnthusiast vs Hoopsguy" throwdown.

You guys will never meet me since I'm just a figment of your imagination. The manifestation of your inner desires for ketchup porn.

It really depends on what happens with Abe's game this morning. I think maybe we should go with a day 1 deadline of thursday regardless of if the roles go out tonight or tomorrow. Everyone ok with that?

P.S. I like being GM and having the ability to edit my posts :)

Just send out the roles now. Even if that game isn't over, are you guys actually doing anything?

At this point Abe's game requires little attention. Basically it requires 30 seconds of work from me and the wolves every four hours. I would send out roles and get cracking whether we have a day 1 deadline of Thursday, or even tomorrow. I know some didn't want to start until that game has ended, but for 99% of the people it's over, even if they're still alive.

Yes, we are having pointless conversation. And I would really like one more sign up for this game. I made all those roles and I want to use them.

DOLA - Just to be clear, I'm in favor of sending roles out today and having a deadline of tomorrow.

I thought you already had 20? You needed 21?

Ok, once we have our last signup I will send out roles. I know Schmidty was interested, so perhaps he'll fill the last spot.

20 was minimum, I could do it with 20, but would prefer 21 because I don't want to cut any of the roles.

I feel like I was bait and switched! :)

To be fair, I removed the hunter role for something much more fun. It wouldn't have bothered me to cut the hunter, but I want this other role in ;)

I'm content with whatever

I see you lurking there Thomkal!

Stop Pointing at me!

I know! Maybe this should be Used Car Salesman game instead of GT...

Shhh, don't spoil my next game!

Well, I've spent too much of my morning reviewing this game. For people who were not around back then, I would recommend just skipping ahead to Post #898 and reading that whole day, ending with Post #1114.

I think this is one of the most unusual days of voting I have ever seen in a game of werewolf. I am just about positive that something like that would not happen today, given our familiarity with each other and the pure number of games that we have all played. But, back then:
- it was only the 16th game on our forum
- AE/Poli and I had probably about 5-7 games each under our belts, not quite enough to cement reps that we now have, for better or worse
- not enough of these type of showdowns had emerged yet. Stuff like this has helped shape some of the logic that is accepted as "proper play" these days
- things were complicated by the "Lovers" role

All that said, this vote was an absolute stunner and really cannot be justified.

Awesome to read this. Good to know this has been my philosophy for forever.

I require therapy after today!

I think that was my second game ever. You villagers would have been a lot better off if you hadn't lynched the BG on Day 1! I think that wouldn't happen if the game were played now, but that's probably because we don't get as many fake reveals now as we did back then.

still catching up but I agree with this.

hmm, I wonder why I didn't play in that game.

Just finished reading that day. I'm glad there's no more talk of betting outside the game -- that really takes away the fun of the game. Pretty funny that lurker showed up in the middle of it and people started wigging out. I still need to get her in on a game -- maybe once she's finished her exam, I can convince her.

For what it is worth, I popped for pizza at Silo's. AE/Poli, BK, and Pass were all there. We were in the middle of the next game and all of us knew that Pass was a wolf in that one and had fun messing with him around the table as the Texas/USC championship game played out on TV.

I'll get roles out tonight and we'll have our first lynch tomorrow.

Just for the record, tomorrow I have to travel for work, so likely won't be on much. In fact if roles go out late tonight (after I leave for my softball game at 5pm ET), I might not even see my role until some point tomorrow.

So if I'm quiet, I obviously am a wolf, so lynch me first.

Thanks for owning up to it, Alan. Maybe Lathum started a new trend, where people will finally admit that they're wolves.

Do it now damnit!

It is always interesting to go back and read old threads and see how much strategy has evolved.

Word. If we're going to lynch tomorrow, might as well give us a full day. I know you're waiting for one more, but just give me two roles and be done with it already!

I PM'ed Schmidty, I should just sign him up now.

I can sign in as hannibal as well if you like :)

I texted Saldana, just waiting to hear back from him

You lost your password. Saldana would be great though.

I lost it on my home computer.. Im at work, and can just pop it up here :P

GOD DAMN YOU BK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That Ardent, what a guy.

Dreamweaver - like that was believable :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Can I vote for Lathum yet?

apparently gary wright makes lathum want to take viagra....

ive already voted, so go for it :)

WTF!?

My role is the erector, once a night I can replace someones meds with Viagra. That person is then removed from the game for 4 hours until they can see a doctor for priapism.

Lathum, any word from Saldana?

she loves when Lathum takes viagra too I bet!

nope.

probably in a meeting

just sign him up, then he HAS to play :D

Ardent was brilliant, I'll give you that.

I'll do it if you need one last signup. God knows I've got problems.

i can play if path doesnt already have/want the spot.

the most stunning thing about this post is that lathum spelled priapism correctly....considering he needs help with "lathum" most of the time, that is quite an achievement.

Will totally give up the spot. Busy week coming up.

It's great to have you back saldana.

My guess is suddenly Danny is going to need 22 players instead of 21 :) :) :)

I had to google that shit then copy and paste

Post of the day.

Welcome back Saldana! Game is full, but I have to leave now. I will sent out roles when I get home tonight :)

after all that? and no roles today? lame!

Atleast he will sent them out when he gets home tonight.

heh, weird typo -- he obviously meant snet or tens or nets.

He is also up in the history draft thread, so he is holding up 2 games at once!

Does the Sympathizer scan as a needie or a normal group member to the Empathizer?

Also does the wannabee therapist (if he wants a bee so much, just let him have a bee, damnit!) fool the sympathizer, or just the empathizer?

Danny, your turn to pick in National People Draft in GD thread

Ok, I will go do that first then.

That one started quick.

Got my role!

OOPS!

Looks like you get a custom role now too. One vote placed against you for post you make, you will be out day one

I don't believe that I have not unposted my lack of a role.

Type in English, please.

Sorry.

Thou dost not believeth that thou hast 'ere unposted thine lacke of a roll.

Type in French, please.

Just the Empathizer

Can't -- none of my keys have accents.

o0k. im smashed. bad day.. I make as much sense as lthum tomorow, blame poli.

Type in Arabic, please.

-ponder-

Internet went down there for a few, but back now to send out roles. I like keeping you guys waiting in anticipation.

The sympathizer does not scan as a needie because he isn't one, he just feels sympathy for them.

Does Poli Rule?

I'll answer that one.

Yes.

poli = savage garden best of hits :D

Fred Savage or Ben?

Abe here

I need to reread the ruleset

No dreamweavers?

I'm here. I'm not going to start up my spreadsheet until tomorrow though.

So from a mining war to an asylum, man, I live one hell of a fun fantasy life.
