Werewolf - *READ THIS, YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED*

Ever heard of Mafia?  It's a popular parlor game where there's two sides, Mafia and Civilian, and they try to find out who the "mafia" is and lynch them without lynching too many of their own kind.  It's based on tricky psychological work and Machiavellian scheming.

Werewolf is Mafia, but on steroids.  A full game is 32 players, with 8 "wolves" (mafia) and 24 "villagers" (civilians).  Plus, it's on a forum, and lasts several weeks.  So there's the added element of communications, networking, and very complicated social logic.

We're trying to start a round on Friday, March 9th with as many people as we can get.  Everyone and anyone is welcome.


If you're confused about the rules, here's an excellent read about it.





I'm hoping to see a few of you sign up if you're interested, we've already played 2 rounds and it went great! However, if you do join you'll need to conduct yourself seriously and play the game actively - not every few days or whenever you feel like it.

If and when you do register on the forums post in the following threads: Round 4 - Sign Up List, Introduce Yourself, and POLL: FINAL THEME SELECTION. Make your voice heard!!!

Thanks!

Oh yes, I've seen this on this old forum, don't remember which one.

I would gladly participate, but if we do this, we need LOTS of organization and moderating (Maybe a sub forum?). We also need serious players for this.




Thank you Marie for the sprite.

Regardless if I have the time to do this I'm also extremly sure that this will go up in flames. It may manage to start but how soon will players start to stop playing?

After the encouragement that this isn't going to be a flop, I decided to check out the rules in more detail.

Quote
•Appear to be innocent to avoid getting lynched (just another villager, I’m not suspicious or nothing, move along, HEY LOOK OVER THERE IT’S A WOLF oh sorry you just missed it)
•Verbally come to the defense of any Werewolves who are in danger of being lynched. You can’t be too blatant about this, or else you yourself might end up looking suspicious (Hey, guys, MikeyLikesIt isn’t a wolf, he’s a model citizen! A veritable saint! He donates money to all of the trendy charities, and even a few obscure ones for indie cred! You shouldn’t lynch hi—oh, you did? Oh, it turns out he’s a wolf? Whoopsie! Say, why are you all looking at me like that?)
•If you’re feeling daring, try to eliminate a Villager by way of vote. Start making accusations against a Villager, rouse some rabble, maybe get a bandwagon started with a few other wolves—if they get enough votes,

How the fuck is this even possible? Is there a huge RP story around all of this? The only information that anyone is a werewolf or not comes from the Lynching, "Scriers", "Baners", and "Masons"! The rest is all trivial. Can someone please explain this?

Update: All player slots are full. However:

Quote
We're going to allow up to 4 (four) more players to sign up, and to compensate, we're introducing a new role:
Arch-enemies (neutrals).
Each neutral will be paired with an enemy neutral and their one objective in the game is to have that enemy killed. If they successfully convince the mob (or even the wolves) to kill their neutral enemy, they win the mini side game and get the happiness associated. This allows for some interesting strategies and denials and such, and even allows for the sacrificing of neutral players when it's too risky to lynch unknowns..

This means that a few more of you can get it if you want.

So far Sabb, Silent, Blah, and Devie signed up. Thanks guys, hope you enjoy the game.
