There's no limit!

I'll leave signups open until Sunday and then probably send out roles Sunday night when I get back from hockey with D1 starting Monday.

Coercing people to make bad decisions, it's my thing!

It's impressive you're doing it without being in the game though.

I'm the meta wolf.

i suppose i will play again

Are we starting tomorrow?

I am ready... I am traveling later in the week but will be able to check in every few hours. Super excited to start!

Just realized we are both in the FFL league. Saw you in there when I was checking to see if today's game was ready. I see you are actually fighting for a playoff spot while I am fighting for a top 5 draft position.

Lol, what team are you?! I won a big game last week.. It will be a tough fight. My defense has actually come around the last few weeks... I think shark is in a few leagues also.

I'm Houston.. Just joined at the beginning of this season. I'm terrible at setting up my defense, but learning as I go.

vote Zinto

So obviously a wolf with a question like that.

:devil:



(just practicing)

Lol, I will not be voting EF for lunch day 1. After that... :)

It is a process ... No doubt!

Yes, finalizing game and assigning roles now. Please no posting until game starts.

Roles starting to go out, vanilla villager PM:

You are a common soldier at Dros Jackal, a fortress on the border between the lands of the Drenai and the lands of the Nadir.

Common soldier checking in.

I return to work tomorrow so I may not be available much during the day and am about to go try to get some sleep (tomorrow is going to suck when the afternoon gets here and I can't take my afternoon nap.... I guess that ties into another thread, I guess I am old),

You'd be getting my vote if I didn't already say I was giving you a 1 day "no vote" to say "thanks" for the last game. Why did I say that again?!!

Checking in. I'm west coast and my weeks are frontloaded but will be around when I can.

Ok. So only a 5 hour or so wait until JAG briefly shows up. Let's go through the usual bumpf that everyone has to say at the start. The most important thing is that people are as active as their schedule will allow them. But, for why you ask;
1) A quiet village is a dead village. If there isn't an atmosphere where everyone talks then its easy for the wolves to slide through with no risk of slipping up or giving an impression of wolviness. It creates less pressure on the wolfs.
2) Far more importantly, the game is more fun for everyone if there's a lot of discussion.

Discussion on day one of a simple game is, admittedly, hard to get going but it can be done. (well, by you guys, its a lot harder for me to have a discussion). Day one votes are a crap-shoot but they're a necessary crap-shoot. Lynching's our main weapon in finding the baddies. Ideally you want a three/four horse race towards the end and a bit of vote movement is always nice to see. Admittedly making it a three/four horse race makes it easier for the wolfies to save a team member but that can be vital information later on. So vote early and vote often.

Vote Britrock

Like this. That's for making me look stupid (...er than usual) in the last game with your insane "saving a fellow wolf with a last second switch" shenanigans.

What's left? Oh yeah. Number of wolves. Meh! I'd guess 3 and a half with 16 people. As I don't see any cultist or sorceroresque roles I guess that means there's 4 pretty vanilla wolves, or a ramped up village OR 3 roled-up wolves with a fairly vanilla village. But I believe I'm normally a bit harsher on the wolfies then is the norm around these parts.

Just had a quick peruse of the roles and see that Druss is pretty insanely powered-up so I'd probably lean towards there being 4 wolves.

I am thinking three wolves. The seer can't be protected when they reveal which I think counters Druss being pretty strong. If we do have four wolves we don't have many days to get this wrong. A few bad lynches and it will be game over.

I agree with Narc. Stay as active as you can. It was really awesome last game to see our newbies come out of the gate being extremely active and I hope it continue with this one.

Hey GE thanks for being a member of the other wolf team and killing Suicane last game. It made my life more difficult.

Vote Golden Eagle

Darn you Narc, that was gonna be my vote.

For the newer players (and everyone), I recommend voting early as it gives us something to talk about Day 1 and forces wolves to take a stand when they may not yet be coordinated.

Vote saldana

Getting an early vote in, subject to change later. For going meta-gamey last game...

vote Zinto

Newb checking in. Should have time to be fairly active, but being a newb I don't know if that's good or bad.

(Reminds me of our high school football coach who gave a quote to the local paper that was previewing our upcoming season, "Unfortunately, all of our defensive starters are back.")

Tally, to help out Jackal

1 Britrock - Narcizo (76)
1 GoldenEagle - Zinto (80)
1 Saldana - JAG (81)
1 Zinto - EagleFan (82)

To Vote: timmae, Grover, path12, GoldenEagle, britrock88, HomerSimpson98, Chief Rum, fontisian, cheekimonk, Raven, Suicane75, saldana

:D

Active is always good.

Who says Americans don't get irony. :)

Because he was right about me being a psychopathic murderer in the last game...

vote Shoveler

(no hard feelings though)

Well, he fooled me last game..

vote grover

Appreciate the thoughts regarding how many wolfies there may be.. Makes my notes a little clearer. It should be an interesting start to this one as we don't have work to do in order to ease into things. Also about 24 hours from start to first lynch.

---waves to grover---

Hiiii!

No hard feelings from me.. But I'm not in the game so you might find lynching me to be tough. I'm just watching this one.

Dammit.

unvote Shoveler

Apparently he does not exist.

Darn... who's the thug then?

---looks around the room to see who looks like a late '80's pro wrestler/bounty hunter---

Have to admit that I didn't react to the vote either. I think you should vote him anyway.

VOTE Suicane75

Because he writes entertaining movie reviews.

VIII. britrock88
IX. HomerSimpson98
XV. Suicane75

Just noticed something here. If these people all have their year of birth in their user name then that means that Path12 is either

a) 2-3 years old, or
b) a time traveller

Or the likeliest

c) 102-3 years old.

Hey sexy people!

I was killed way too early on Mars. And then I got too busy to read back and find out who killed me. So I don't know who is responsible for my death.

But whoever you are, I have a particular set of skills. I will find you. And I will vote to kill you...someday. But not today.
