Telle makes a fair point, please make your overnight public statements in bold on their own separate line from anything else you post

I like the idea of the buddy system. Since britrock is currently the only unpaired person who has stated where he will stay, I'll join him. But since he said he's sleeping then I'll stay awake.. hopefully we can remain a pair and swap that the next night.

I STAY IN ROOM 223 AND STAY AWAKE

They may have sent private instructions for where to search. Unless they also said they then returned to the lobby, they'll end up staying overnight in those rooms. From what I'm getting from the rules, we might see what rooms they went into (maybe only if we're on the same floor).

The night passes slowly for some and quickly for those who chose sleep over paranoia. other than the raucous noise from Timmae in 109 waking folks up now and then the night passes without incident.


Day 2 has begun, deadline 10pm tomorrow!

From the rules, "The hallways are well lit and anyone can be seen entering any given room." So either nobody searched by PM (other than britrock) or we all happened to be busy with our own searches or just looking in a different direction when they entered and left the rooms? If the latter, maybe we should have designated hall monitors?

And, uh, timmae? Do I want to know what you were doing in your room alone overnight that caused so much noise?

Just some loud music, mainly alkaline trio, wu-tang, mac miller and the pixies. Unfortunately it was a party of one. I hope somebody knows something about this motel6.

With not everyone here yet, and us still trying to figure out the rules, I consider this day a bit of a test run. But I'm not sure we've learned anything. What is the advantage of staying awake, do we think? I assume you can't be surprised by a nasty person at night but is the advantage purely defensive? I assume in a game around the acquisition of items, getting robbed is a big likelihood. So maybe the point is simply to defend against that but if you stay awake too many nights you'll eventually fall asleep anyway.

My thought is that if we're paired up, it's known who is with who, and one person sleeps while the other stays awake, then that gives a defense. If anything happens to the sleeping person, the awake person either did it or knows who did and is also potentially able to ward off an attack to either of them.

OK, so if I'm understanding this right (and trying to put this into WW terms)

Day action - search a room thoroughly (after this you can wander as much as you like)
Night action - sleep or stay awake in a room - if you don't specify which you presumably stay awake in the room you were in last?

Also I'm not sure about the strategy of publicly searching, if we aren't 100% sure there are no wolves in this game. Feels like the second you find something it gets publicly announced and you have put a huge target on your back. Or am I off in that line of thinking?

This would be correct, except that I assume you fall asleep where you are unless you say you are trying to stay awake.

Public statements are just that, you've blurted out something for everyone to hear. In regards to searching it means you've left the door open and are making enough noise that everyone knows what you're doing and perhaps....finding?

If the search is public then we can group together and protect anyone who finds something. The 3 known items may already be in possession or may be placed throughout the motel. It hasn't been stated but I'd assume that they are randomly placed as the search mechanic is there for a reason. However, until we know more we shouldn't assume anything.

I'll work backwards and search 108 next. The door to 109 is open and there is nothing inside. We can cross that one off the list.

Search 108

The intro post states we might be muggles and we might be wizards/witches. I am thinking we have both. Bhlloy is on my radar for suggesting there may not be wizards/witches (i.e. wolves). I think he may be one and trying to cast doubt. Let's watch this stranger fellow hotel guests.

This is not a search action, it just puts you in the room

You rummage around the room make even more noise than last night. In the back of the drawer of the nightstand you find a Shot Glass.

Woot! Now someone just needs to find a leftover bottle of whiskey that hasn't been emptied and we'll have ourselves a fun night tonight!

108 and 109 are clear.

So, if we each search a room during the day we can search 10 rooms per day. It'll take us 5 days to clear this joint. We can track who searched which rooms and then assess what may be found. if you want to keep your search private then we can track it as such if we think there is safety in that the baddies will not know what we have found. As we all know I am the holder of a slightly used shot glass.

Interesting theory. So do they then have different mechanics once they find certain items? Otherwise everyone is just a bunch of muggles. My guess is that there are wizards/witches that have something unique about them, making them different than muggles. Maybe wizards/witches are the only ones that can use the wand to cast a spell or something similar to that??

Just a random thought... what if there is something that happens when you bring all items that go with a specific room to that room, i.e. the shot glass and any other party items to a room that is more less made for partying?

My impression was that that was in contrast with simply walking into a room, as I did. I figured it's possible some things may simply happen when you enter a room but you won't find hidden things.

I should note that I can confirm Nane's search of 223--presumably the search occurred before I ventured out of my sleeping quarters for the day.

No, I just figure the fact that we can do it means that maybe something can come of it. Most likely I fall in a trap door and die, but hey, someone's got to find out!

I'll spend my lunch hour in room 107.

Spend 1 hour in Room 107

So... please be careful to note that spending an hour is not searching. Nor is sleeping considered a search. Items seem to be able to exist in rooms that have just been slept in or spending just a short 1 hour window without doing an actual search. I think. Maybe. Where's that whiskey.

This will be tricky, we won't really know what is happening until some event happens--someone finds one of the Hallows or someone gets attacked or something. And then the second phase kicks in as we try to make sense of that. I don't think we'll ever know enough to kick into a pure Werewolf style game, but we may know enough to lynch eventually.

true also we don't even know if there are really teams like, we were told there are muggles and witches/wizards but that does not mean all of any of those are working together...
