Werewolf i - Game Over, villagers win

st.cronin · 10-02-2006, 08:15 PM

Your village for too long now has been beset by wolves. You have erected your defenses, isolating yourself from the rest of the world - but, alas, this morning you awake to discover st.cronin has been torn apart by wolves! One of you, at least, must be a werewolf! Let the accusations begin.

Players

1. Izulde - lynched, day 3 (wolf)
2. Lonestargirl - lynched, day 2 (villager)
3. Spleen1015 - eaten by wolves, night 3 (villager)
4. Lighthousekeeper - lynched, day 5 (wolf)
5. Glengoyne
6. Neuqua - herbalist
7. PackerFanatic - eaten by wolves, night 2 (villager)
8. GoldenEagle - lynched, day 4 (wolf)
9. Bek
10. DaddyTorgo
11. oliegirl - seer
12. Anxiety - eaten by wolves, night 1 (villager)
13. Mr. Wednesday - lynched, day 1 (villager)

Rules

RULES

Werewolf is a game of accusation, deduction, lying, reverse psychology and bandwagoning. Moreover, it's a lot of fun.

The rules are pretty simple: The players represent a village and each member of the village has a role which is kept secret. Most players are ordinary villagers but two or more are werewolves and one is a seer, there are some other roles which are explained later. The goal of the villagers is to eliminate all of the werewolves. The goal of the werewolves is to achieve 1:1 parity with the villagers at which time they can openly rise up and overwhelm the villagers thus winning the game.

Gameplay
The game consists of two different phases: Night and Day. The game begins with a Night phase.

Night
In a night phase the moderator will ask the werewolves to choose a villager to “eat” and also ask the seer to choose one player to “view”. The werewolves should decide amongst themselves using the board's PM(private message) function who their victim will be and inform the moderator of their choice. The seer should decide who his target will be and inform the moderator of his choice.

The werewolves' victim is dead and is removed from the game, but the rest of the village won't find out until daytime who the victim is and what their secret role was.

The seer's target has his role (villager or werewolf) revealed to the seer only.

Day
During the daytime the villagers all wake up and find that one of their own has been killed by the werewolves. At this point at least one player is a werewolf and so someone is gonna get lynched.

During this phase all players, including werewolves who have assumed villager form, must discuss their suspicions. Eventually it will reach a point where villagers start to cast votes for who they feel is a werewolf and must be lynched. Votes are cast by placing bold text in a post like this VOTE PLAYER A. At the end of the day (which is defined as 8:00 pm board time) the player who received the most votes is lynched and is removed from the game. That player’s role will be revealed to the village.

When the lynching is done all the villagers go back to their homes to sleep and the next night begins.

Winning
In case it's not clear: The villagers win if they kill all of the werewolves. The werewolves win if they kill enough villagers so that their numbers are equal. At this point the werewolves can openly rise up and slaughter the rest of the villagers.

Special Roles

Roles will be assigned randomly; the Moderator will inform you of your role via PM when we start the game. The following is a description of the roles in the game.

Seer – There is one Seer in the game and he is on the villagers team. Each night the Seer may choose one other player to “view” by sending a PM to the moderator with that player’s name. The moderator will tell the Seer whether his chosen target is a werewolf or a human.

Herbalist - There is one Herbalist in the game, and he is on the villagers team. Each night the Herbalist may choose one other player to protect with his wolfsbane. He may not protect the same player two nights in a row. He may, if he chooses, protect himself, but again, not on consecutive nights.

Werewolf – The werewolves know who each other are and may send PM’s between themselves to discuss strategy. At night the wolves PM the moderator the name of the player they’d like to eat.

These rules were mostly lifted verbatim from Peregrine's initial game. I have added the role of Herbalist.

Roles are coming. Pm me with questions! Day 1 will end Tuesday at 8:00pm Eastern Time.

st.cronin · 10-02-2006, 08:25 PM

All roles have been sent out via pm.

To accuse a player of being a wolf, name him this way:

VOTE ST.CRONIN

All caps, all bold, and with at least one blank line between any text. To change your vote, you need to unvote:

UNVOTE ST.CRONIN
VOTE SKYDOG

There is NO editing of posts, and you are not allowed to quote directly any pm I send you.

Hey guys, i am just a villager. Boring villager. Who is going to get the ball rolling on the votes?

DaddyTorgo · 10-02-2006, 10:18 PM

day 1 votes are such a crapshoot, that it seems like the votes tend to come at the end when we see who has failed to check in or whatever.

Glengoyne · 10-02-2006, 10:21 PM

I've got a few thoughts about how to deal with the emerging wolf problem.

This is nothing personal, but nothing is more depressing than being voted down on the first day, so I'm going to spare the new players the honor of my vote.

Welcome to the crapshoot that is day 1, new folk.

Bek · 10-03-2006, 12:04 AM

I think we need to keep this a talkative game, get people invovled and dont let anyone hide, we need to make sure we keep people accountable for their actions. Also, a talkative game is a funnier and more exciting game. my .02

I don't believe in the "I'm a villager not a wolf" posts that almost everyone does. They don't have meaning. Since my first game, I've never done them, and even in my first game I protested when I did it.

I doubt it is anything at this point. We really do not have much to go on at this point, other than people claiming to be villagers. I would watch the quiet ones. The new players may be wolves and not sure how to go with that role.

spleen1015 · 10-03-2006, 09:38 AM

I'm pretty sure that it means nothing, but it gives us something to talk about.

The quiet ones..

PackerFanatic and oliegirl haven't been on the board since before PMs were sent. Izulde has posted a couple of times in the Heroes thread in GD since PMs came out.

GoldenEagle · 10-03-2006, 10:12 AM

That is the only thing we really have to go on at this point unless someone comes forward in the future.

lighthousekeeper · 10-03-2006, 10:34 AM

Any fellow libertarians in the village will want to lynch the mayor. Down with government! Let anarchy rule! ...wait, what's this game about again?

PackerFanatic · 10-03-2006, 11:17 AM

Sorry, I am here....had to watch the Packers get slaughtered last night *sigh*

And to get things rolling...

VOTE LONESTARGIRL

Something about her post bugs me, not sure what...but it smells quite wolfey.

spleen1015 · 10-03-2006, 11:49 AM

Just to help folks keep track.

Mr. Wednesday votes Anxiety - #15
PackerFanatic votes LoneStarGirl - #24

Anxiety - 1
LoneStarGirl - 1

VOTE ANXIETY

Welcome to the crapshoot that is day 1, new folk.

I am sort of suspicious of this vote. Maybe a couple of veterans trying to create establish a voting pattern early? I am not saying this is the case, but I am not sure if I buy the reasoning of not wanting to vote for a new person.

I dunno. Day 1 is really a crapshoot.

Izulde · 10-03-2006, 12:56 PM

Villager Izulde checking in.

Bek · 10-03-2006, 01:54 PM

well at this point I dont think that the veterans are making a voting pattern, day one is just a crapshoot. The only person to check in is oliegirl. So at this point...

Vote Oliegirl

Will change if something later in the day happens

--Bek

Bek · 10-03-2006, 01:56 PM

dola,

meant not check in....my bad

I agree that Day 1 is a crapshoot. But establishing voitng patterns against each other is a common wolf tactic. I am not getting ready to accuse these two of being wolves, but I think it is something to consider down the road.

I would like to hear Mr. Wednesday and Anxiety comment on this further. Anxiety has been taking sort of a hands off approach lately. We will see where that goes.

lighthousekeeper · 10-03-2006, 03:34 PM

Are people usually as quite as Anxiety and Olliegirl after getting voted against? I would have expected some "stop - I'm a villager" sort of response, or something.

spleen1015 · 10-03-2006, 03:38 PM

oliegirl hasn't been on the site since around 9am yesterday. So, she may not even know the game is happening.

Anxiety on the other hand....

yeah. but you know everyone will say that when you vote against them. later in the game you'll see that more, but this early there's no evidence anyone has to backup the fact that they're a villager.

GoldenEagle · 10-03-2006, 03:50 PM

It would be tough for me to vote for olliegirl. I am trying to give her the benefit of the doubt.

oliegirl · 10-03-2006, 03:58 PM

Villager Oliegirl checking in...I stopped at the store while I was out and stocked up on Silver Bullets

oliegirl · 10-03-2006, 04:09 PM

Dola...sorry I'm late, I wasn't home much yesterday and didn't realize it had started...promise to keep up now!

PackerFanatic · 10-03-2006, 04:19 PM

Like everyone says, Day 1 is the toughest...really just feeling people out, getting acquainted with the game. I will stick with my vote unless someone convinces me otherwise.

Fora Day One random vote? Nah. If the Day One vote were for a flawed reason ("Vote for Anxiety because he was evil in this one game I read and now I'm voting for him") then I'd be more verbal. If it were later in the game and people were wasting votes on me then I'd start talking. If a bunch of votes were one me, ditto, but not some random Day One vote. You just gotta roll with the punches.

To be fair, this is only my ninth or tenth game as a player. I'm not nearly as much of a vet as my rep my entail.

Abe Sargent · 10-03-2006, 04:38 PM

For those who are not aware, Tuesday Night is date night for me, so I'm taking off in a few minutes and I will likely not be back until after lynch. That means I need to vote now. With nothing to go on, I am merely reciprocating on Mr. Wednesday for voting for me. SInc ehe does not want to vote for neophytes (I notion I disagree with, btw), he shouldn't mind if I use that ploy against him.

Vote Mr. Wednesday

Good luck to you all.

Mr. Wednesday · 10-03-2006, 05:09 PM

I have absolutely no problem with you following along with that, FWIW.

Izulde · 10-03-2006, 05:33 PM

Today is a Tuesday, not a Wednesday, so that tells me it's just not Wednesday's day. That seems as good a reason to me as any to:

Vote Mr. Wednesday

LoneStarGirl · 10-03-2006, 05:41 PM

Hahaha Good one.

Vote Mr. Wednesday

This seems like a good day to jump on the bandwagon.

GoldenEagle · 10-03-2006, 05:45 PM

I am not sure if the bandwagon jumping is correct at this point. I know I have raised some suspicions on Mr. Wednesday, but I am not sure he is a wolf.

LoneStarGirl · 10-03-2006, 05:50 PM

Right now you have no information to tell if anybody is a wolf. Day One is really the ONLY day to jump on the bandwagon.

Bek · 10-03-2006, 06:06 PM

ok, nothing against the guy but its day one

Vote Neuqua
