Wolf- High scores in Cunning, Discernment, and Confidence
Seer- High Scores in Cunning and Discernment
Hunter- High scores in Discernment and Confidence
Ranger- High Score in Discernment
Cobbler- High score in Cunning
Villager- low scores in all

I like the looks of that very much, Roa!

Roa_Aoife · 04-25-2006, 05:51 PM

Okay, now I just need ways to test these traits. Any ideas?

Diamond18 · 04-25-2006, 10:51 PM

Not really.... Are you thinking of general life situation questions, or questions that pertain specifically to games of Werewolf?

Real life situations are better, say I, since Werewolf-specific questions are too easily manipulated to achieve a desired result.

But, having never made a test myself, and this being Roa's project, I'll butt out now...

I'm not sure, but I think the Hunter should have a higher score for Confidence than the Ranger. After all, he/she's the one making a kill, and the decision for a huntee requires a lot of confidence. That's how I see it from my experiences, anyway.

Roa_Aoife · 04-26-2006, 07:43 AM

Please don't butt out Form- I put it here to get advice. This is the first quiz I've ever made, so I need some assistance with it.

Yes, I meant real-life situations, because I am a master manipulator of tests, and I know what's hardest to manipulate.

Lhuna, I know what you mean. I keep bouncing those two around in my mind, and I can't seem to decide which should be which.

I'm thinking I'll do the test in three sections, one to measure each trait.

In that case...

I have to agree with my esteemed little sister- and not just because she is just that.

The Hunter, in my opinion, needs greater confidence, because his own life is on the line. This is particularly true during Daytime situations, when the Hunter's life is in danger. Sometimes, the Hunter will reveal himself to save his life, but sometimes it's too late for that- and there was at least one situation in which a Wolf masqueraded as a Hunter- and both were lynched.

A Ranger gets a new shot at getting it right every night, so I'd say that he has the easier task. The Hunter is an all-or-nothing.

However, having never played either Hunter or Ranger, I'm hardly in a position to say, now am I?

Roa_Aoife · 04-26-2006, 02:36 PM

Thou speakest sense....

Alright, I'll switch the two. I've gone back and edited my previous post to show this.

You may all now bow down before me.

Pack Leader

You scored 88 pack mentality, 78 body strength, and 88 mental strength!

These scores are DIVINE. You'd make an amazing wolf. You'd me able to make your pack an exceptionally great hunting team. As a great hunter, you'd be able to easily bring down your prey, and as a great leader, you'd be able to ensure that your pack lives happily. The ultimate wolf! This is my first test, so it would be nice if I could get some feedback, so please rate my test! Thanx!

Really got to find time to squeeze in another game of werewolf...

Well, Fordim, we do need more male players in LMP's Mega-TiG game -- check the TiG thread to see why.
