Werewolf XXVIII: Mad Wizard and the Wolves (Game over Pg45)
 

The Werewolves are on the backfoot against the Kingdoms of Man in their war. While they had destroyed several towns in their initial rampages, they were never numerous (leading to their usual tactic of hiding in a town's population and attempting to turn the town against each other).. and have lost several key battles recently and the Kingdom of Men are pressing the advantage. Hearing that the remnants of the largest pack of wolves to be turned back are holing up in the ruins of a destroyed town.. several cities pooled their money to hire the best wizard they could to go in, and scour the wolves with magical flame.

Unfortunately, the best wizard they could hire was not only very powerful, but madder then a March Hare. The famed Mad Wizard Trosa has arrived, and he's brought some friends along.. and he's about to turn the tables on the Wolves in a way they never expected before. They're going to play the game, with his own twist.

And they don't call him the Mad Wizard for nothing.

Alternates: None at this time.

Rules:

Roles will be handed out this weekend. This will begin Night 0 and discussion will be allowed at this point.

Game will start Tuesday, 9 AM with Night 0 Actions due at that point. Game will then run on a Monday-Friday basis, with Night action results being revealed at 9 am, and lynch results being revealed at 10 PM.

Lynches are based on most votes rule

Ties will be handled under the following rule: The two "boss" characters can each break a tie once (the Wolf player will have first choice on whether to break a tie or not, followed by the Wizard player). However, breaking a tie WILL reveal your role. If neither player wishes to break the tie, it will be decided by a coin flip.

The game will go until the Wizard flees, The Wizard and his henchmen outnumber the remaining Wolves (or a 1v1 basis), or the Wizard and his henchmen are all killed.

Victory Conditions:

Wolves:
Complete Victory: Wizard and henchmen killed, Wolf Boss stays alive
Moderate Victory: Wizard Flees, Henchmen killed, Wolf Boss stays alive
Moderate Victory: Wizard and henchmen Killed, Wolf Boss is killed
Light Victory: Wizard Flees, Henchmen Killed, Wolf Boss is Killed

Wizard/Henchmen:
Victory: Eliminate all Wolves

In!

Gladly in. What are the times you are looking at for lynch?

Probably 10 PM Lynch time, 9 AM Night Action's due.

With the long holiday weekend, when were you looking to get started?

I'll play if you want me.

We need to make sure we do this in alphabetical order. Anxiety, Barkeep, Blade, etc.

-Anxiety

Probably start a week from today, with roles being sent out over the weekend and Night 0 actions if any to be received Tuesday morning

You're in, Qwik.

Ok, I'll play. Tuesday is my birthday though, so I likely won't be around till later that evening. (Please don't lynch me on my birthday for being quiet on the first day!) :)

in

in....should be festive to see who is dead first, me or alan, as we seem to have the 3 day limit pretty much locked down on us.

I hate to be a pain but do you know if you plan on running the game over the first weekend because I am going away the whole weekend and I would hate to be innactive and maybe spoil the game.

In

Damn. I'd love to get in on this one, but will be out of town from June 3-June 10. :(

In!

I'll jump in....but damnit...make me a villager!!! :)

dola - and BTW I'm anti weekend play too

in, and weekend is also bad.

will update the list and since so many people can't make weekends it'll be a m-f game

I'll give WW one last shot, mostly because I'm going to be bored for the next week or so. But if there're anymore childish crap in this one, I can't promise I'll stick around.

I'm in.

Good to hear Schmidty.

I've updated the list.. if we get 16 soon, do you want to start the game tommorrow or Thursday instead of Next Tuesday?

lol

lol at my weekness, I don't care. :( :D

Schmidty, you might be my favorite fofcer. :D I hope the Pistons get swept.

That's fine w/ me as long as it picks back up on Tuesday (30th) after Memorial Day.

though it might be odd/crazy to start it on Thursday...two day and one night action then a three day break. I guess if you can start it Wed. then we'd at least get three days and two nights before a well needed three day weekend.

just my opinion

good to see you decided to stay...i agree with the childish crap needs to stop concept...werewolf is a game. games are supposed to be fun.

I'm all for starting asap

dola, i say crank this shit up as soon as its full

I can't play if it starts this week. Out of town till next Tuesday :(

I would likely miss the first 3 days of the game, which is usually all that I am normally alive for!

And I hope Shaq slips in Icy Hot and breaks his hip. But if he does, I won't cheer!! :D

I'll play but I atleast ask that my fellow players follow along with the game, it makes things easier when everyone knows what is going on ;)

Got it Dubb.. and yes.. you don't want to miss anything in this game.. remember how many twists and turns there were in my last game of WW that I ran? (Evil Grin) I was just getting warmed up.

I should be able to play either this week or next week - my work project is more or less wrapped up at this point.

Looking forward to it, Fozzie. Your X-Com game was my first full game (subbed in midway through the previous one) and is largely to blame for all my lost hours to FOFC werewolf over the last year.

In. :)

Your the reason i died...you were too damn smart(my first game too, and i was the head baddie)

ill play i guess, if i can get a fair shake from fozzie

What kind of thing is that to say? Pretty rude in my opinion. Questioning a guy's character is pretty lame. I gave you a fair shake, didn't I?

I wouldn't have even let you in my game if you had something that unfair.

So Blade, have you had a run in with Foz too? Not taking a shot, I just missed it and it makes me feel left out.

After the way he went out of his way to tear me down repeatedly in the mod thread, i have no doubt in my mind about his feelings and the extent he feels them. I never felt you would let your feelings get in the way, fozzie i dont know about. So i make that comment to him, letting him make the call if i play or not. Just saying in doesnt leave him any options, and this is his game. If he doesnt want me to play, no harm no foul.

Some time ago on day one it came down to me or him and we got into a big argument...the fact day 1 was like 3 days didnt help. He got lynched, i thought it was over, but then he made some rather harsh comments in other threads...He had a nickname for me like bladey..dont remember it

Blade and I have had a grudge going back a while now, he's the reason why I haven't signed up for any WW games in a while, and his actions are why. I strive to run a fair and fun game, and BS comments like that don't help, but you are welcome to join if you still want to, and I promise I will treat you no better and no worse then the other folks in the game, Blade.

Then don't sign up. The last thing we need is more conflict and juvenile behavior. That isn't directed at you totally, but when you feel that uncomfortable that you have to question him publically, then you probably shouldn't play. Just an opinion.

and get it right, I called ya Binky :)

Tom Brady disapproves of Werewolf grudges.

ill play...im trying something this game, a whole new Blade character. Well see how it goes, but its aimed at cutting down controversy like this

Good luck with the game. I enjoyed the last WW game run by Foz, even if people didn't like what I did.

Thanks Fouts, and Blade, you're in.

if you would care to relive it, it was during the chuck norris samurai vs ninja game...i couldnt decide who to vote for on day one because i wanted both of them to shut up so badly.

How does the lead wizard flee might i ask?

The Wizard will have that option after each round. But without going into his role too deeply he's pretty much nigh-unkillable except under certain circumstances.

Rats. Am I an alternate?

give ardent my spot...I won't have time to play after all

sorry Fozzie

Since SnDvls is unable to play, you're in, AE :)

Word.

Updated the first post.

Just a bump and reminder I'm going out of town today, and won't get back till Tuesday night late. So I won't be able to check in till Wednesday and will miss day 1. So my being quiet on day one is not some super strategy or anything.. just me being out of town. :) Happy memorial day everyone!

VOTE ALAN T

beat me by like 40 seconds!!!:mad: ;)

story of your life...:eek:

Roles are being sent out shortly.

Before i get my role, im playing a unique style this time for me(unique to me, others play it). So when you wonder what im doing this game, remember this quote.

LOL, get the PM from fozzie as i hit the reply button for the post above

so does that mean your not going to be an instagating, know it all obnoxious little pain in the ass...;)

Actually, thats exactly what it means...with proper spelling of course. Well, i still do know it all, but thats besides the point :p

I thought we were waiting for after the weekend?

We are, Night 0 actions will be due Tuesday at 9 AM.

Just sending out the roles now.

There is a night 0 cronin, im assuming that will last through the weekend with day 1 to start monday

i c

Cant we bump that to monday for day one? Do we really need monday too just to send in a few PMs?

Quite a few folks won't be a round Monday.. but Night 0 Doesn't have much happening, and I'd rather get the first lynch in Tuesday.

Wolf checking in, looking for weak human intruders to maul and devour.

mmmmmm, human intruders. [drools/]

wolf checking in.

Crazy? I went crazy once. They put me in a padded cell.

Oops. Wrong game. :)

Wolf checking in.

What's Blade saying...I still have him on my ignore list.

Blade was only on my ignore list for the remainder of the game.

I'd suggest new game, new life.

That was said tongue in cheek, I forgot a smilie.

LOL, if he wants to know un-ignore...if he wants to be a little girl about it, he doesnt need to know

Of course it'll last four or five posts within the game, I just know it.

:D

By the way, my schedule next week will allow for gametime during the afternoon and night, but my schedule the next week in South Carolina will probably be a lot more grueling. I hear there's a net cafe there on the base open 24 hours, but I'm also hearing rumor of 12-14 hour training days. I'm not sure how long I'll be in SC, but I expect to last a week or two.

I hear Africa is a great place to be this time of year as well.

Gotcha. :)

T-minus 5 posts...:D

Fresh air and sunshine is good for a wolf...or henchmen (dun dun dunnnnn!)

Due to a promise i made someone else, have your fun...i retreat

Dorks. :)

What's that smell? Smells like victory...

I'll play nice, I always have.

I'd like the record to show I have yet to post pictures in this thread. ;)

I am here now. You may all resume your normal, moribund existances.

That is the worst signature ever (not yours). It looks like "Delt Over".

Wolf here. Wolf there. Wolf everywhere. Wolf good.

Are you saying that you're a Wolf?

Yeah. I find clarity is eluding me today.

Sigh. I hate this obligatory, "I wam a wolf, hear me roar," thing we do at the beginning of every game. It doesn't mean anything, just adds to the white noise.


-Anxiety

I'm looking forward to the "lynch" scenes - somehow I'm guessing that stringing someone up with a rope isn't the way that wolves look to take care of the disguised humans.

Dola - I'd like to edit my above post for grammar, but I can't. Now someone is going to ask what a wam wolf. Sigh.

Heh, hadn't thought of that at all.


-Anxiety

Anxiety, in this case I was hoping someone with a human role would come after me with a "wait a minute, are you admitting to being a wolf? Lynch him!". That would have been pretty damn amusing ...

Also, in the games where I have been a wolf in the past I've always wanted to express on the message board my desire to rip the defenseless humans apart. So it is kind of a reversal of fortune to be able to do this here and be in the majority faction.

Overall I agree with your sentiment. Just not for this particular game because of the reasons above.

Bah. By now, you guys should know that I don't do things the EASY WAY..

:D

(evil Games Master rubbing his hands together and giggling evilly at some of the things he's put in this game)

Not 6 posts before yours hoops....think it bears mentioning again and again
