Werewolf XVII: Return of the Wolves
 

Simple game, no? :) Gauging interest. Just post below if you want in.

:Primary Roles: (Each player is guaranteed to one of these roles)
Werewolf - You belong to a pack of werewolves. You may choose to kill one person each night.
Villager - You are a villager, and your sole purpose is to survive.
Seer - You are the seer, and can view the true identity of a man or wolf. Each night you may choose to view the true identity of one player.
Herbalist - You possess a bag of wolfsbane, the deadliest herb known to all wolfkind. Each night, you may choose to protect someone by slipping wolfsbane upon him. You may not choose someone two nights in a row. You may, however, choose yourself.
Duke - You are the Duke, disguised as a petty farmer, as a one-time action you may choose to prevent one person from being lynched and instead have someone else be the target of the lynching.
Witness - As a one-time skill, you may choose to view the killing of an innocent during the night. If noone is killed, then you waste your view.

:Supplementary Roles, Villager/Seer/Herbalist/Duke/Witness: (You may or may not be given these roles, note that there could be one or more of these)
Cursed - You are cursed, and have been so since birth. If bitten by a werewolf, you will join their ranks. Of course, you will not know that you are cursed until you are bitten by a wolf.
Blessed - You are blessed, and have been so since birth. If bitten by a werewolf, you will be granted a second chance at life. You do not know that you are blessed until bitten by a werewolf... note that this does not save you from lynching.
Cupid - In a previous life, you were Cupid. In the beginning of the game, you may assign two players to be "lovers". You may not choose yourself.

:Supplementaty Roles, Werewolves: (You may or may not be given these roles, note that there could be one or more of these)
Brutal - You are a vicious wolf, and if lynched, you may choose to bring one person of your choice to the grave with you.
Cunning - You are a deceitful wolf, and if lynched, you will not reveal yourself as a werewolf upon death.

:Supplementary Roles, All: (You may or may not be given these roles, note that there could be one or more of these)
Lover - You are fraternally and eternally bonded with your "lover", upon the death of your lover, you shall die as well. You know who your "lover" is, and vice versa. However, you may not PM each other.

Rules:

There will be two phases, a Day Phase and a Night Phase.

During the Day Phase, everyone votes to lynch one player. In case of a tie, the player who got his first vote last will be lynched.

During the Night Phase, all players with Night actions may choose to do their actions, or do nothing at all. Only one Werewolf will PM me the Werewolves' choice of slaughter, and that Werewolf will do the killing.

Note that a supplementary role may be mixed with a primary role, so we might have a "Seer/Blessed" in the game, or a "Duke/Cursed". The effect of being Cursed is that you lose your primary role and become a werewolf instead.

If a player is lynched, his Primary Role is revealed, if a Cunning wolf is killed, he will only be viewed as a Villager.

Deadlines are still tentative.

Werewolves win if they reach a 1:1 ratio with the villagers. Villagers win if all werewolves are dead.

Been a while. Count me in.

i'll give it a whirl

when is this going to be running? i've got a weird schedule for the next couple of days, if there are no major conflicts i'll be in

The game will probably start next week.

If this won't run into Thanksgiving, in. If it will run into Thanksgiving, I'll be home over the holiday and unable to participate during that period.

Woot. I'm in

We can all set a date, maybe a week or two weeks from now. When is Thanksgiving in the US?

Im in, though will be out of town friday-sunday....ideally a start of monday would be best for me, though i can make due if need be over the weekend

November 24th.

I'm too busy nowadays with Bartender training and looking for a house, otherwise I'd be all over this. Good luck all.

Sign me up!

Count me in.

I would like to play but it depends on the timing of the deadline.

In.

That's on Thursday... I'll be gone (with limited time to read the board) from Wednesday afternoon through Sunday night.

I'm in!

uh, yeah.

Inn.

I'll play. Its been awhile.

in, with the same thanksgiving restrictions

sounds good to me, i'm in

I'd say the two start dates that would make sense are Thursday, Nov. 10 (tomorrow), or Monday, Nov. 28th (first regular day after Thanksgiving). Anything inbetween there will probably run over Thxsgiving... alternatively, we could start at an intermediate date and specify that Thurs. the 24th thru the Sun. the 27th will be off-days.

Here's what I will do. We'll start things off Nov. 14 (Monday) and then declare Nov. 24-27 as off-days. How's that sound to everyone?

I was also thinking about the deadline times for each phase.

I'm thinking about an 8:00 PM Deadline for the Day Phase (votes), and a 12:00 Midnight Deadline for Night Phase. Or if you have any other suggestions, kindly inform me.

Bump. I'd also like it if we got some fresh blood joining in.

I am in if there's room.

I've had enough of a break.

I'm in too.. I figure people won't lynch me on sight now :D

What the heck, I'll play.

As I haven't confirmed I will play.

DOLA -- I really hope this game goes well as sitting bored here at work I just went and visited a board that hosts werewolf games and finally got the missing piece for a concept that I came up with during Werewolf Spawn. It will be a lot simpler than that game (though it won’t be a traditional game like this one). Anyhow I’m all excited again and so I’m rooting for this game to go well so people would want to play in my game :).

Sounds good to me.

Anything is good for me, but you're talking about 8 PM EST?

Yep. All times are in EST.

If noone else is joining, then I'm going to give out roles on Tuesday Morning, we can start with Night (0) on Tuesday Night and Day (1) on Wednesday Morning. I edited the rules a bit, so please read and re-read them.

It doesn't look like any new blood like you wanted.

I have never played this game before.

I stand corrected.

Anyone have an under/over of the post count we're going to have? :)

Players are final. Roles will be sent out in a couple of hours.

ROLES HAVE BEEN SENT OUT. Cupid, you pick two players who are "lovers". Seer, you may view a player in Night(0). There will be no kills in Night(0). Voting begins on Wednesday, deadline will be at 8:00 PM EST.

When voting, kindly do so in bold and all caps.:

VOTE NEON_CHAOS

to unvote, the same applies.

UNVOTE NEON_CHAOS

Happy Wolf-hunting.

For rule clarification, do lovers know each others roles, as in is it possible a villager and warewolf can be lovers and the villager not know?

What, like Romeo and Wolfiet?

lol, no...i understand lovers know who their lover is, but can lovers not know the role of their lover...its an honest question that could heavily affect gameplay

As soon as the lovers are informed of who they are lovers with, they will only know that the other person is their "lover". (yes, yes, lots of wonderful homosexual referrence for this game... muhahaha.) But they will not know that person's role.

Yes, a Villager and a Werewolf might be lovers, or two Werewolves. Depends on who Cupid chooses at the beginning.

Peon Raiders Army checking in. Ready to work.

Top of the morning, y'all.

Checking in. I'm a villager. I won't be on much, and I'm travelling back to Chicago this afternoon.

Peon? There's no role that's a peon. A secret role perhaps :D?

Joking aside I'm looking forward to playing again.

Villager checking in here before class.

Just wanted to verify what is taking place today:
1.) No day action
2.) Night action (Night 0, no kill)

Is this accurate? No movement towards any kind of lynching until tomorrow?
