Also, I think elD's meaning was more along the lines of "you've made an already excellent game even better" rather than "my one sucked compared to this". At least I hope so because the first one was excellent.

Yeah ditto, I can't wait for this one should be goooood.
I like the added characters it adds those layers that are going to turn it from a superb desert into a even better trifle (layers etc, one tries ones best).

Also i have at least two different characters in my head, be interesting to see which one i go for. Cheers Ronin it looks awesome.
and PM sent

To the second, I understand what you are saying. I'm musing on whether to tweak that down to "the Ghost knows that they have been checked but not who the Occultist is". Let me get back to you on that.

I've been musing alongside other work this afternoon and I've come to the conclusion that the Occultist is going to be too easy to identify if his identity is given away every time he interrogates a Ghost.

Instead, I've changed the rules around him as explained above; to whit, the Ghost the Occultist interrogates will know that they have been interrogated but not who the Occultist actually is.

Ah, well, yes. I mean if you're going to include yourself as a referee then sure we have enough wolves...

Just to note, more generally, that sign-ups are still open for TWG2 so if anyone else fancies playing they are still welcome. I'll probably start adding another wolf if we get another couple but don't y'all worry about that. :D

Also, as mentioned earlier, please could all players PM me with either a confirmation that they'll be emailing me with their THN Games email address or with another specified account?

(That's just to help me identify that you are really you. :) )

Ok the calendar even says this starts tomorrow (yay!) does this mean we can expect to see a post in the morning kicking things off with everyone having a PM in their inbox tomorrow morning or is it a case of waiting overnight for the first death (of the NPC as I understand it) and then it beginning from then... (or would that mean it begins on teh 26th?)

My game plan, so to speak, is to make a post tomorrow to open the game. It'll be day as, technically, the first (pre-game) night will be happening tonight. In a sense, the plot is already afoot but the townsfolk of Havenburg are not yet aware of it. :)

I'm not exactly sure of the timing of the first post as I need to get my clothes to the laundry in the morning and there's always the risk of work demanding something off me (but they've had enough damn work out of me this week already) but I hope to make the opening post around 11:00 BST.

I'll also be starting a new thread, specifically for the game, leaving this thread for "points of order" discussion and as a rules catalogue.

Each day I'll end with a "votes end now" followed by a write up on what happened. Each morning, I'll post afresh in reply to the first post in the thread so that threaded viewers get to see the days as separate lines of discussion.

I'll be using PMs fairly extensively to send information but no one should read anything into that. I'll be messin' with ya heads as much as I have time for, so PMs may fly to random innocents, wolves with a conscience and so on... :D

As mentioned, though, please try to use email/MSN/Xfire to catch me with the secret votes and investigations (Wolves, Seer, Occultist, Night Watch Captain).

So, probably no PMs tomorrow (though you never know...) but the game will start then regardless. A day of confusion and scene setting, probably... hence the ability to have a "no lynch" vote for that day (only).

Are you kidding me? The first game messed with my head enough as it was and I wasn't even involved. Now you're going to be deliberately escalating it? :eek:

Ronin you're a legend :D

Sorry I'm dropping out of this as I'm away for the weekend and I won't really be able to participate. :(

Another Bambi barbeque anyone?

I've just thought of another question for Ronin to answer. When the Seer or Occultist reveals a Wolf with their relevant powers will they be told just "a Wolf" or will they find out the pack status (i.e. "the Alpha Wolf")?

Finding out the status could make things easier for the Seer as they can then rule out anyone the Omega level Wolf has voted for as a potential Wolf, so I guess it depends on whether you think the Villagers need any extra help or not.

They will just be told "Wolf", not the their pack rank.

Given that we've lost a couple of players I'm going to drop the Kinfolk role for this game as the Wolves were starting to look pretty heavy in comparison to the Innocents.

That means that the roles that will appear are:

  • 3 Wolves, Alpha, Beta and Omega
  • 1 Seer
  • 1 Occultist
  • 1 Night Watch Captain
  • 7 Innocents, of which 1 will be the Blessed One

Additionally, one of the Innocents or Wolves will also be the Mayor, but that person will not be the Blessed One, Seer, Occultist, or Night Watch Captain.

That gives us our 13 players.

So, given that I need to figure out role assignments and other bits I'm now closing sign-ups. If you're really lucky, I might post your roles overnight. ;)
