Not that my opinion should matter much here because I'm not even playing the game but I'm not a real big fan of mass lynchings. Double lynchings are one thing & lynching three people might be okay, but if you open the door to a huge, elaborate, eight person mass lynching that guarantees the villagers the win it takes a lot of the fun out of the game for me.
Either way I agree with everyone else that it should be up to whoever is the moderator for each game. |

Well, Enca is the one who is deciding, but I think I shall comment anyway. I am personally in favor of the mass lynching ideas. It adds so much strategy to the game, as Saucepan Man mentioned above. And I don't mean just strategy of the villagers about when or if they should.
For instance, I was the first one to bring up the mass lynching idea in WW8. I did so to try to do three things: 1) have the villagers shoot down my idea so that they would not do a mass lynching. 2) try to make the villagers think me innocent for bring it up. 3) if the first two failed, I was trying to find a way to force a stalemate by killing everyone(which almost succeeded). The possibilities are almost endless. In short, keeping mass lynchings in the game does not give advantage to either side, and I think the fact that I was a Werecreature in the last game and brought up the idea means anyone in the future who brings it up will be brought under suspicion. By the way: whoever ends up being the WereBear, I'll be rooting for you and adding your kills to our total. ![]()

Ye're entirely right, Saucie...the thread is going round in circles. Will it be necessary for me to check this before the game starts, or are we only going to be considering the mass lynching problems until then?
![]() I have no opinion on rules and how the game should be played. I'll leave that in the hands of the mod and go along with what ever's decided. I'm pretty complying on my first time round in a game. - Folwren

Morsul first asked to play in a Werewolf game while the last one was going on, and his later request to be put in also went up before Kitanna's, so while I don't mean to offend Kitanna, I think Nilp and Morsul should fill the two empty spaces.
EDIT: Cross-posted. Morsul's willing to sit out. But I think Morm and SpM were willing to sit out the game if others wanted to play.

We'll start at the end of this week, I believe. Night One is on Sunday, roles should be sent out tomorrow, presuming Enca's still alive and kicking.

I can't wait to see what role I get. I don't care what I get because all the roles will have their perks.

Maybe you'll be that lucky. I just had my first full day of school today...the upside of all this being that there's a decent chance I'll be able to teach an elective class based off of Werewolf next semester, I just need to plan the details with my teacher ![]()

I return in triumph!
Sorry to keep you eager players waiting!
![]() Let's clear up the last few issues before I send out the roles. 1. Replacing arcticstorm and Nonnacedak will be Nilpaurion Felagund and Morsul the Dark, since their requests were put in first. 2. Multiple lynchings are not forbidden. That is, to say, they are allowed. But I don't want to see, for example, everyone but a Shirriff who has revealed him/herself lynching themselves in a circle. Come on, guys, that's barely victory. If votes are tied for the DAY, both people will be lynched. *puts on a stern face* Remember, this is not a right, but a privelege. ![]() 3. The Cobbler will be aiding both the Werewolves and the Werebear, just because s/he hates the rest of you oh-so-much. This will at least give the Cobbler something to do if all the Wolves are slain. Any further questions that I can help with? If they're general, post them here; if they're more specific (ie: pertaining to your role), please PM me. Don't worry -- unlike the Werecreatures, I don't bite... Last edited by Encaitare; 09-01-2005 at 07:13 PM. Reason: I tried to make an official list and it just didn't work... |

It never really struck me that the Cobbler could win, exactly, since the Cobbler is not quite on a team. Also, the Bear will only win if he is the last remaining player.
I think it just makes more sense to have the Cobbler aiding all the Werecreatures, because of the awkward situation we had in WW8 when we had a Cobbler with nothing to do for the rest of the game. It wouldn't make sense to have the Cobbler try to aid the Villagers in killing the Bear after helping the Wolves kill the Villagers. |

Umm...
I have a wedding to go to on Sunday which should take up the whole DAY. This wasn't a problem before, but with the new start date/time I'll end up missing the whole period. Sorry about that...

Just to check, EST is 5 hours behind UK time right now. It's 17:25 at the moment in the UK, all I need is for someone in the EST zone to confirm that it's 12:25 where you are.

I am in the EST time zone and it is 12:42 right now. So I think we're OK, SamwiseGamgee.

I have just received a PM from Morsul the Dark saying that the hours conflict with his schedule and he will not be able to play. Kitanna may take his place if she wishes.
In future, guys, please make sure that you will have the time to play before signing up. ![]() |

Nilp apologises but says he will be unable to post today due to unforeseen circumstances and requests that you do not lynch him for it as he was also unable to get online to warn people.
