I've muttered about picking up the baton where elD has left it to more than one of you, including elD himself...

And I will. :)

So, please sign up below for the second of what may become a series of The Werewolf Game (or possible off-shoots... I've got a half-baked idea for The Alien Invasion Game)...

I'll use a slightly different set of rules/setup to elD, but strongly based on his learning and sterling example. But I've had four hours sleep and a fourteen hour day so I'll not start on those just now...

The crucial details, however:

  • Start on Wednesday 25th April. I can't do earlier due to work and other commitments 'til then.
  • Day runs from 11:00 BST to 23:00 BST. Night therefore runs from 23:00 BST to 11:00 BST. I hope that gives people time at both ends of the day to do their stuff. Besides, that fits well with my sleep pattern. ;)
  • Same genre (Werewolves) but different setting... some provincial town, this time. Havenburg, I think.
  • Wolves/Seer/Others can email, Xfire or MSN me, though not email via the board as that's even more obvious than PMs!
  • I'll include more roles than Innocent, Wolf and Seer. Night Watch Captain is on my "probable" list (variant on Guardian Angel).

Hoping elD will take this chance to play the game he has introduced here. :)

So, start signing up. I'll be closing sign-ups for the game on Tuesday 24th, probably around 23:00 BST.

I'd like to be in this one. I may be quite late on Wednesday due to a prior commitment but I should be here in plenty of time to deal with any duties assigned to me (choosing a victim etc)

I hope the wolves don't eat elD on the first night. :D

If the end of day could be pushed back 1 hour, I'd join in, as then I'd have an hour and a half after school to join in the discussion. Otherwise, It's just not going to work. Sorry for being such a hassle. :p

I'll be in this time :) Probably make a muck up of it but will give it a try.

I plan to use the "kill the narrator" rule for the first night so that everyone gets at least one day of play. Admittedly that makes the first day more random but I think that might be preferable.

With "Kill the narrator" how do the wolves get decided?!

Still working on that. I'm wondering about giving an option for a "no vote" on the first evening, too, to save an utterly random death.

The process goes something like:

  1. Night begins.
  2. Innocent "specials" tell GM what they want to do (e.g. Seer, Guardian Angel, etc).
  3. Wolves tell GM who they want to kill (one person).
  4. Night ends.
  5. GM decides who lives/dies and distributes information.
  6. Day begins.
  7. Someone discovers a dead body, if someone died.
  8. Innocents discuss, make accusations, generally get rowdy (see: Angry Mob :D).
  9. Innocents vote on who to lynch. May offer a "no lynching option" as well, that acts just like a person (i.e. if that wins the vote, there's no lynching).
  10. Day Ends.
  11. GM declares who has been lynched and whether they were Innocent or Wolfen.
  12. ... loop 'til end of game...

I'm proposing that the first night, the specials and wolves get some information but their actions are predefined, that night being pre-game somehow. Then the first "play" is in the first day.

Still working on that...

Could you not have a real person for the first death ?

have an imaginairy character that gets wolf-raped on the first night ? that way everyone gets to play for at least a day and dosn't end up dead like midge :P
