Small game - Return of Werewolf Xtreme (Game over! Result in Post 401)

[JAG]

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.

[britrock88]

Obligatory "ugh" of trying to cope with no role reveal.

I'm in if you need me.

[The Jackal]

In

[mysfit]

in

[Chief Rum]

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.

[cheekimonk]

In

[Autumn]

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).

[JAG]

2-4 more slots available

[britrock88]

Top of the alternate list works for me, JAG.

[Shoveler]

In

[JAG]

Game will start Monday night / D1 Tuesday evening deadline, with alternates if needed or without if not.

[timmae]

Hell yes!

[JAG]

I'll be sending out roles within an hour or so. I'll post here with an official 'game on' post after that.

[JAG]

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.

[timmae]

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

[Grover]

checking in!

vote autumn

for being so clever at hiding being the seer last game!

[cheekimonk]

Sweet! I'll be covered up in the morning, but should be around the rest of the day.

Covering up those werewolf telltale signs are ya?!

[mysfit]

Vote Grover

because he was the last vote before mine

[timmae]

hey mysfit! Danzig fan??

what's a Danzig?

[timmae]

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.

[mysfit]

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

[mysfit]

I assumed timmae is from South Park?

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...

[timmae]

2004 that should be.

[JAG]

Day 1 vote (as of Post 29):

Autumn 1 - Grover (19)
cheekimonk 1 - timmae (18)
Grover 1 - mysfit (22)

[timmae]

Morning all! I have meetings all day but will be able to check in periodically. I will mainly be around tonight.

[Grover]

Did everyone forget we were playing a game today!?

[Shoveler]

sorry, was about to post a little bit ago, but I received a phone call.. will have some thoughts shortly.

[Autumn]

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!

[Autumn]

All right let's get to finding those wolves.

vote the jackal

[Shoveler]

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.

[britrock88]

Also, a little new player love!

VOTE mysfit

[britrock88]

I'm 6th out of 9 to check in.

[Chief Rum]

Lucky number seven?

[Autumn]

Good call, that's where it was. Google hates me.

[Chief Rum]

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)

[Autumn]

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.

[britrock88]

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.

[britrock88]

JAG: is the Sorc known to the Wolves, or vice versa?

[britrock88]

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.

[britrock88]

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? ))

[JAG]

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)

Actually, cheeki checked in, but didn't vote. So Jackal's the holdout. He'll turn up.

The Sorceror does not know the wolves and the wolves do not know the Sorceror
