Werewolf LXXVI - The Werewolf Draft! Game over, see last pages for details - Page 4

PackerFanatic · 06-23-2008, 09:06 PM

At least in the few games I have participated in, it usually seemed that each GM had their own way of handling the deadline and each game played to a different time area (some afternoon, some evening, so on, so forth) So maybe this game doesn't work for some and works better for others, almost guaranteed another game will work better for those people that this one sucks for (if that makes sense, heh)

Schmidty · 06-23-2008, 09:08 PM

I just called my wife, and I was right - She thinks I'm being a drama queen, so I'm staying in; however, I won't be very active. I'm at work from 11 pm - 7 am PST, and actually have a ton of time to post since my job duties take like 45 minutes total, so most of my posts will be when everyone else is asleep. Basically, I won't be able to banter/discuss/argue and such in real time, so don't be surprised if I'm UTR. I guess that's never a surprise with me anyway.

i was actually being serious...i didnt really like your original post very much...i thought your edit got your point across much better...the first time, your point would have been lost in the drama that your comment created.

saldana · 06-23-2008, 09:15 PM

dola, fwiw, i dont really care for the deadline, as I will be in the middle of my work day, and typically have client meetings in the middle of the afternoon, but that doesnt mean i am gonna not do as much as i can in the evenings, mornings, and over my lunch break

Yeah, I guess calling Lathum a smelly vagina wouldn't have helped things.

DaddyTorgo · 06-23-2008, 09:16 PM

I don't think editing before the game starts is bad. the time it was edited and the date are clearly visible

I think that would help just about evferythign!

DaddyTorgo · 06-23-2008, 09:19 PM

so you're saying wolves have smelly vaginas??

*sniffs*

Lathum · 06-23-2008, 09:48 PM

My point wasn't to tell Schmidty how wrong he is, but to just say there are alot of people who would rather post from work then home, there will never be a deadline that is convienent for everyone, thats just the nature.

Word. And frankly I think 24 hour deadlines disadvantage people who can't be around at deadline more than help them.

I don't know if I've ever been in a game were Chief Rum doesn't have all his posts in the middle of the night. Similar situation to a few people who have been on the other side of the world.

I guess I've always seen it as 'buyer beware' regarding the deadline, but it would stink if there was never a game with a deadline that was good for you.

claphamsa · 06-23-2008, 09:57 PM

yeah, no one is ever gonna be happy! the one I hate is 1o EST, right at bed time! do you stay up extra? or just check in the morning

Passacaglia · 06-23-2008, 10:32 PM

Wasn't there an evening deadline last game? Did anyone complain about that?

Barkeep49 · 06-23-2008, 10:32 PM

I use the 10 eastern a lot because it's 9 for me and that, during the school year, is frequently the only time I know I'll be home.

I think it was 9 pm for me, which is ET. That was fine, but I prefer afternoons just b/c of my work schedule...noon is the best, that is when I'm getting off work...but I know that isn't best for most people. If a game had a deadline I don't think I can be around for, I just skip that game.

Lathum · 06-23-2008, 10:41 PM

When we first started playing these games the deadline was 6:00 PM EST

Really? Why is deadline such a big deal?

It's just a preference for me, I like to be around during deadline in case a vote needs to be moved.

I live!!

Mrs. Schmidty · 06-24-2008, 01:01 AM

No PM yet, but I hope Alan's not a wolf this game - his analysis could be very helpful from what I see. Plus, the game gets a little too quiet without him! So that's my vote, make Alan a villager

Funny story. I had a PM this morning from chief which had the title "Draft" and then it said "You're up first" and I'm like, this makes no sense. Is there some mechanic I don't know about that involves a player picking people? Then I realized that I was involved in two things that had to do with a draft (this and the historical people one) and it wasn't WW related at all.

st.cronin · 06-24-2008, 09:37 AM

I'm composing pms now, also I'll have an updated rules post. I'm making a couple of minor changes. Please bear with me.

I'm thinking we should have Schmidtys little title changed from "Pro Starter" to "Drama Queen"

Lathum · 06-24-2008, 10:01 AM

thats awesome

st.cronin · 06-24-2008, 10:10 AM

Roles and rules:

The village wins when all four wolves are eliminated. The wolves win when there are as many wolves as villagers left in the game, with one exception: If all that is left is one wolf and the Hunter, the villagers win.

Villager roles

Seer
Fake Seer (thinks he's the seer, but isn't - revealed as seer upon death)
Spy (can follow one player per night - if he follows the wolf making the kill, he can id the wolf)
Bodyguard
2 Masons (no pm rights, and are not allowed to reveal upon pain of death)
Duke
Philosopher (scans for the cultist)
Hunter (Villagers win if he is one of the last two players)

Wolf roles

Cunning wolf (scans as villager)
Brutal wolf
cultist (counts as a villager, wins with the wolves, knows the wolves but has no pm rights - selected by the wolf team)
Sorceror (scans for the seer)
Regular wolf

Only the cunning wolf can kill any player - all other wolves may only kill a player who has voted for them at some point in the game. This only includes votes tabulated at the deadline. The wolves may kill 1 player per night.

All pms are being sent out now. Vanilla villagers will get the following pm:

Quote:

You are a villager. Your objective is to lynch all the wolves.

Good luck, and have fun!

Wolves and non-vanilla villagers will get more specific information, obviously.

The first deadline is Wednesday, 3pm Eastern time. Pms are composed and being sent out right after this is posted. I will post again after they are sent out, and the game will begin then.

Good luck, and have fun!

Edit: When voting, PLEASE provide a blank line both above and below the vote, as well as bolding the vote.

st.cronin · 06-24-2008, 10:13 AM

All pms are sent out! Game on!

Interesting rule. I have never played in a game like that before. Seems like that will bring an interesting twist to who we all vote for.

I don't like people who are under the radar the entire game. I might vote clap for being too quiet!

villager checkong in

KWhit · 06-24-2008, 10:18 AM

Just a basic villager for me.

I don't know if all of the roled characters were drafted first, but if so, i'm kind of offended.

Barkeep49 · 06-24-2008, 10:25 AM

As an amateur hoopologist I am going to suggest he would pick someone like sndvls as his first pick. Therefore I am going to

Vote sndvls

DaddyTorgo · 06-24-2008, 10:26 AM

got my PM. had the same experience as Barkeep, which made me do a double-take and laugh till I realized CR wasn't running the WW game.

anyways...villager here

offended that hoops didn't draft me for the wolves team (unless super-cool poli snatched me first). I think after the game the draft-order and who was what should be revealed.
