Small game - Return of Werewolf Xtreme (Game over! Result in Post 401)
To fill the time until EF's game starts, I'll run a 9 player game that is a repeat of one Autumn did some years ago. The big change from most games is there are no roles revealed upon death. The first 9 to sign up will be in and off we'll go, start date of Monday or whenever it fills up.
Good Roles: Seer - Each night receives a vision of a target player as 'wolf' or 'not wolf.' The seer receives a vision on Night 0 of one randomly chosen player that is 'not wolf.' Thereafter, the seer chooses which player to view. Priest - Each night receives a vision of a target deceased player. The vision tells the priest that deceased player's exact role. The priest must choose one deceased player to view. Hunter - If only two players remain in the game and the hunter is one of those players, then the good team wins even if the other player is a werewolf. 3 Villagers - Ordinary villagers with no special powers. Evil Roles: 2 Werewolves - The werewolves know each other's identity, and may private message/chat without restriction. Each night the wolves choose one target player to kill. Sorcerer - Each night receives a vision of a target player as 'seer' or 'not seer.' The sorcerer receives a vision on Night 0 of one randomly chosen player that is 'not seer.' Thereafter, the sorcerer chooses which player to view. The sorcerer wins if the wolves win, but counts as a villager for victory purposes. The Sorcerer does not know the wolves and the wolves do not know the Sorcerer. Victory Conditions: Good - All good players win if all werewolves are eliminated, or if the last two players remaining are the hunter and one werewolf. The sorcerer does not have to be eliminated in order for Good to win. Evil - All evil players win if the wolves achieve parity: if at any time the number of wolves remaining equals the number of non-wolves remaining (including the sorcerer), evil wins. However, if one wolf is left with the hunter, then good wins. The sorcerer counts as a 'non-wolf' for these purposes. DEADLINES 10 pm EST - Voting deadline. Any votes marked 10:01 or later will not count. 10:30 pm EST - Dawn deadline. Any night actions must be submitted by 10:30. THE BASICS Only edit posts within 5 minutes of the original post time and only for formatting / spelling / grammar. No quoting of private messages. No discussion of the game outside the thread. Any player inactive for 36 hours will be replaced. VOTING Every day the village votes for who they wish to lynch. The player who receives the most votes by day's end will be killed. In order to vote, please post your vote in bold and on a separate line. You may change your vote at any time before the deadline by posting an unvote and then a new vote, both in bold. Nightfall votes must be unanimous and will still be dependent on my availability. Once you vote with Nightfall, your vote is locked and cannot be changed. You may not self-vote or vote No Lynch. Tie votes will be resolved by whichever candidate has the longest held vote on them. REVEAL Roles will not be revealed upon lynch or upon night kill. Only the Priest will have knowledge about the allegiance or role of any of the dead. SIGN UPS 1. Grover 2. timmae 3. Shoveler 4. The Jackal 5. mysfit 6. cheekimonk 7. britrock - lynched D1 8. Chief Rum - killed N1 9. Autumn |
In! First!
|
In. Grover's obviously a wolf again.

Obligatory "ugh" of trying to cope with no role reveal.
I'm in if you need me. :) |

I will play if you need me, but I would prefer to take this one off and let others play.
So put me down as an alternate and if you struggle to fill 9, I'll play. |
In
|
Put me in as a maybe too. I'm willing to play but if there are nine others interested I can sit out (last week of class for the semester for me).
|
2-4 more slots available
|
Top of the alternate list works for me, JAG. :)
|

|
Game will start Monday night / D1 Tuesday evening deadline, with alternates if needed or without if not.
|
Hell yes!
|
I'll be sending out roles within an hour or so. I'll post here with an official 'game on' post after that.
|
Roles were just sent out, please let me know right away if you did not receive one. The game has begun and you are free to post. Day 1 deadline is Tuesday 10:00pm EST. Good luck to everyone and have fun.
Vanilla villagers received the following PM: You are a plain old villager. |
Let's roll! Looking forward to having a small game, just some straight old werewolf hunting with standard roles. Fun stuff! So who's evil this game? Grover's always evil so we just need to find out who his accomplice is. Let's start here.
vote cheekimonk |
checking in!
vote autumn for being so clever at hiding being the seer last game! |
Sweet! I'll be covered up in the morning, but should be around the rest of the day.
|
Quote:
Covering up those werewolf telltale signs are ya?! |
Vote Grover
because he was the last vote before mine |
hey mysfit! Danzig fan??
|
Quote:
what's a Danzig? |
The misfits?! One of the best early punk rock bands ever. Glenn Danzig is better known for his own band but the Misfits was the everest of his career if you ask me.
|
Had to Google that...band
never heard of them Been using this nick since '97 or so......descriptive Would be more along the lines of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer |
I assumed timmae is from South Park?
|
Quote:
Exactly... I have never seen south park (not 1 episode) but I worked with a guy who would always quote it. I used it as my username in 204 and it stuck with me. My name is Tim so... |
2004 that should be.
|
Day 1 vote (as of Post 29):
Autumn 1 - Grover (19) cheekimonk 1 - timmae (18) Grover 1 - mysfit (22) |
Morning all! I have meetings all day but will be able to check in periodically. I will mainly be around tonight.
|
Did everyone forget we were playing a game today!?
|
sorry, was about to post a little bit ago, but I received a phone call.. will have some thoughts shortly.
|
Goddang it, for some reason I no longer get e-mails when I get a PM here, so my presence had to wait until I thought to check. But I am here!
|
All right let's get to finding those wolves.
vote the jackal |
So with no-reveal I would imagine our reads lists will be more important. Hopefully we can get some conversation going here this morning/afternoon.
Vote Britrock |

Check your spam folder? My notifications have been heading that way lately. |
Also, a little new player love!
VOTE mysfit |
I'm 6th out of 9 to check in.
|
Lucky number seven?
|
Quote:
Good call, that's where it was. Google hates me. |
VOTE MYSFIT
Because she has already posted more than everyone, and being OTR (Over The Radar) is way, way wolfish. (P.S. Welcome to the board lol) |
These small games are very tough. Only requires 4-5 votes to get lynched, and we've got two wolves and a sorceror. The benefit is the wolves are very hesitant to help each other out so if we can get one in the lead we're good. Vote movement tends to be more villager because of that.
|
Thinking about our roles... the only people who have anything yet are the seer and sorc, who have N0 negatives.
I presume the priest will get an order in to view the D1 lynch. |
JAG: is the Sorc known to the Wolves, or vice versa?
|
Seer has 2 wolves among a pool of 7 people and up to 3 scans left (presuming a lynch and NK every Day...).
Sorc has a pool of 7 in which to find 1 seer. |
Does anyone have thoughts on the priest's approach for D2 and forward? (As in, is it more valuable to investigate lynch or NK victims?) ((As in, should he look for dead wolves or dead power roles? :p ))
|
Day 1 vote (as of Post 46):
mysfit 2 - britrock (38), Chief Rum (42) Autumn 1 - Grover (19) britrock 1 - Shoveler (36) cheekimonk 1 - timmae (18) Grover 1 - mysfit (22) The Jackal 1 - Autumn (35) |
Quote:
Actually, cheeki checked in, but didn't vote. So Jackal's the holdout. He'll turn up. |
Quote:
The Sorceror does not know the wolves and the wolves do not know the Sorceror |
Quote:
Ironically, I don't have a feeling for this, despite being the one that has multiple times forced this role and ruleset on you unhappy FOFCers. I always hoped Hoopsguy or someone would figure out the ideal way to play with priest type roles. I assume it's best to clear up our lynches, so we know if we hit a wolf, with the exception being if the priest thinks perhaps the wolves hit a seer. But it's going to be hard for them to play. |
Unvote Grover
Vote Chief Rum for piling on a villager because she's chatty |
Quote:
If you followed Bug's and Mug's games you would know I am ALWAYS chatty Maybe because over half the group is UTR but still Thank you for the welcome, wolf. Looking forward to games with most people being involved rather than just showing up to vote ;) |
Quote:
I'm inclined to agree with you. We _know_ which way NKs will count (for parity, at least--they could catch the sorc, hence my modQ). Lynches can run the gamut, though, so I think they're worth more information on the margin. Then again, we might find that a very interesting day/night sequence makes it potentially rewarding to check the NK... But I'd lean toward the priest viewing daytime targets, I think. |
Vote Grover
I think he's pretty close to taking my "always a wolf" mantle |
Fairly busy day at work lined up, will probably have more time later on
|
I tend to lean towards the Priest scanning the lynch victims since without that knowledge it's going to be super tough to do vote analysis
|
So, if we don't hit a wolf (or sorceror) on D1 or D2 it'd look like:
2-2-1 .. still not endgame depending on what the priest has been able to reveal, since the sorceror doesn't know who the wolves are. but it'd be getting tight. this game has the potential for some very interesting scenarios |
Quote:
So if I'm village this time, that makes you a wolf. |
Quote:
Haha yeah I noticed. ;) I'll leave my vote on you for now for fun, but assuming you don't do anything terribly wolfish, I'll probably switch to a relevant vote at some point today. |
It has been unusually quiet around these parts today.
You're all wolves. All of you. Except me. I'm a villager. |
Day 1 vote (as of Post 61):
mysfit 2 - britrock (38), Chief Rum (42) Autumn 1 - Grover (19) britrock 1 - Shoveler (36) Chief Rum 1 - mysfit (52) cheekimonk 1 - timmae (18) Grover 1 - The Jackal (55) The Jackal 1 - Autumn (35) |
Quote:
Well, hell, am I supposed to wait on you before shifting off mysfit? :p |
That is a crazy vote spread.
unvote vote chief rum |
Quote:
Man I give you a seer role, and you do that to me. To me?!? :eek: |
Checking in before my commute home. I think priest scanning the lynch/nk victims gives us the most information. Not much content to go on yet but I will be on tonight.
|
Quote:
Since the Priest can only scan the deceased, lynch or NK are the only ones he CAN scan............... I mean is there any other way to become deceased? |
UNVOTE MYSFIT
Okay, done playing around (especially as my random vote was putting misfit in a tie for the vote lead). |
Quote:
I think the point of discussion was whether to scan lynchees or nightkill victims, as it would be one or the other. As you note, there aren't really many ways to die. |
Yeah, timmae, it's some combination of those two options, and no more.
|
Quick tally update sees mysfit with 1, Jackal with 0, and Chief with 2.
I will... UNVOTE mysfit VOTE cheekimonk (Chief and cheeki aren't voting anyone currently.) |
So that's Chief/cheeki 2, Autumn/brit/Grover 1.
|
unvote Autumn
vote cheekimonk |
Insert ChrisTuckerFridayDriveBy image
|
Darn smartphone... I think priest reading lynch victims is the way to go. That way we will know if our reads are accurate or if we need to readjust.
I will reread when I get to my CPU and get an actual, i.e. Not meta, vote in. |
Sorry everyone. Catching up. On a quick read...
vote britrock88 |
Hey shoveler.. What are your thoughts man!
unvote cheekimonk Vote shoveler |
*crickets*
|
**waves at grover**
|
Hi tim!
|
We have a lot of spread here. Heck, even if you all consolidate on me, get off these individual votes. Killing me does the village no good, but consolidating the vote does and it may prove useful later when the priest and seer reveal their findings.
|
VOTE CHEEKIMONK
Self-defense. |
For the record, my posting leading up to the deadline will be sporadic, but I will be checking in.
|
Day 1 vote (as of Post 82):
cheekimonk 3 - britrock88 (71), Grover (73), Chief Rum (82) britrock 2 - Shoveler (36), cheekimonk (76) Chief Rum 2 - mysfit (52), Autumn (64) Grover 1 - The Jackal (55) Shoveler 1 - timmae (77) |
We have like 3 hours to go before hitting lynch chaos... Lots of time left. Need to finish cooking wine first! I will be back.. With my reads (however early and/or inaccurate as they may be).
|
Quote:
I hope that "hi tim!" can become the new "hey brad!" |
Sorry timmae, I quit checking the thread earlier when nothing was happening. To be honest I was waiting for you to start posting so I could figure you out since you seem to be the only person I can (somewhat) accurately read.
I'm good with my vote for now. There is still plenty of time left tonight before lynch. But I am not seeing much to go off of from anyone right now. |
Quote:
let it begin! |
Hi everyone!
So cheeks... are you saying you are all caught up? Anything else to add? Wolf have your tongue?! Donner party? |
unvote Grover
|
Quote:
Hm, I can't decide what I think of this post. |
Quote:
So how am I reading? I know the answer so your answer could tell me lots. Don't want to fall victim now. |
But for now, I'll:
vote cheeki |
Quote:
Right now you are in the "no clue" section. I need to see your reads, which I know would be hard to put together right now, but that's how I can figure out if you are on the level or not. |
Back in action. Jackal's revote takes Chief out of cheeki's reach for a self-defense tying vote.
|
Quote:
Working on them... some of you haven't given me much to go on. Into the night we go. |
Quote:
I'm guessing this is a rather large pool of people at the moment. |
Indeed. If I am at the top of the post leaderboard, we should be quaking with fear.
|
Quote:
but the night is dark... ... and full of terrors! |
Grasping for straws here but since we are on a dead end road here goes nothing...
Leaning good: Grover (would a guy who's been wolf like every single game draw attention to himself by posting wierd stuff... methinks not), britrock (wifom is possible but I am reading good here, trying to figure out game) Neutral: mysfit (chatty back and forth, no bad vibes but have no meta), chief rum (here and posting but not sure on content, wierd mysfit vote, joke maybe, then self protect vote), jackal (afk for a bit, want to hear his thoughts about game strategy) Slight evil: Autumn (a bit of game strategy posts early, then a quick vote, I almost expect more content here), cheeki (seems reserved, only 2 posts, no humor, is he covering or is this good cheeki), Shoveler (here but not much content, will base his read of me on my reads which seems odd) |
