I wonder how many were first intrigued when they saw lx's werewolf game? I'm on that list. :)

Want to play in this one ;)

I did, but was hoping you might change your mind :)

Thanks for perspectives all, keep 'em coming. I feel like if I participate in 4 or 5 and observe 1 or 2 I will be set to go with an assistant mod, if not before that (3 or 4 plays and 1 observe, maybe?)

FWIW, if you happen to get knocked off D1/N1, and the game stretches on to D4/5, that probably falls more on the "observe" side than the playing side. ;)

So the delineation isn't entirely clean. In that vein, the last two games have both gone without any real end-game so it's harder to judge what really worked and what didn't.

Feel free. The people on the bottom list will fill out the numbers if they are needed. If they aren't needed, then they're fine stepping aside.

Well...

I started watching Flub's game around Day 2 or 3, I think it was. I didn't even know "Observer Thread" was an option.

I'd heard about the "milk" game a few times. I guess I just assumed it was set in the offices of the SF City Council and about the assassination of Harvey Milk.

Apparently, it was not. Who knew?

Anyways, when I was working on my nunnery setup I created a messenger character with a somewhat similar concept. After talking with yogs about Flub's game, though, I took it out. Love the concept, but in practice it seems like it's too complex to rely on. And if you can't predict how someone will use a key feature, it's even harder to balance the whole it would seem.

A solution I've used is the Majority Lynch.

The player with the most votes end of day is lynched.

No Lynch is No Problem.

I have an idea. I might actually fit a number 13 into the game, if you are not suspicious. I just calculated it through and I'll talk it over with agentcarr, but I think I can balance the addition of another role. Depends now on how much the 'I'll only play if I must' players want out.

In any case I'll start the game tonight. Either with 13 or with 12. I don't think that there will be 3 more coming to fill up the roster to 16.

I'm very suspicious. This is not to say not to include it, but be advised...

Just for the record, what bothered me with your play was not the RP-ing per se, it was mostly two things:
- You write the way one talks - taking a deep breath and then spitting everything out in one endless sentence, using commas when you could have used periods and made shorter sentences.
- You kept repeating the same things over and over within the same post, and then made new posts re-repeating them.

It quickly became wearisome for me.


And how do you know this?



Agreed, I was NKed in the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game in N1, I don't count that game as one I've played.



No no no, this is your chance to have two bodyguards!


@Lifthrasil
If you need one person out, you can put me down to the observers list.

D'oh! I meant superstitious! ;-)

Hey guys! P1na wants to play too. So now we are at 14 players. If we can convince bler to step in right away instead of waiting to replace someone, we only need one player more!
