Werewolf 7 game thread

Welcome everyone to Werewolf 7! Here are the rules; if you have any questions, please take them to the rules discussion thread or contact me privately. I recommend anyone who needs to contact me to use e-mail, my address is RBMardoc at gmail dot com.

I have sent out role-PM's to everyone at this point (containing the rules descriptions found below, no flavor this time), so go ahead and let the accusations fly! I'll be working on a RP post this evening, but don't want to hold up the game itself any longer.

If anyone did not receive their PM, please PM or e-mail me.

1x Devil (limited information, results are either Villager or Special)
1x Void Wolf (same as usual)
1x Double voter (may secretly cast an extra vote for the same target
1x Normal Wolf

vs

1x 1-shot Vigilante
1x Role Blocker
1x Baner
10x Villager

Wolves may either use their power or perform their kill, each night

Order of operations:

Simultaneous:
  • Void Wolf: The void wolf submits to me by e-mail or PM one name during the night. That player's role, if any, does not work for the night. No one will be informed if they're blocked (except in rare circumstances the vigilante, see below), except that they may not see the results they expect in the morning. The void wolf may block the roleblocker - if this happens, the roleblocker's power does not work for that night.

  • Village Role-blocker: The roleblocker submits to me by e-mail or PM one name during the night. That player's role, if any, does not work for the night or the following day. No one will be informed if they're blocked, except that they may not see the results they expect in the morning. If the roleblocker happens to choose the wolf selected to perform the kill, the kill does not happen. The roleblocker may block the void wolf - if this happens, the void wolf's power does not work for that night. If they block each other, nothing happens.

Both of these roles come before any other actions. The order only matters if A is blocking B- if that happens, then A goes first and B's power is negated for the night; no one else is blocked.
  1. Village Baner: The Baner submits to me one name during the night. If that person is attacked by the wolves, he is not killed. If that person is attacked by the vigilante, he still dies. No one is informed about the exact reason why or person attacked; simply in the writeup there is howling but everyone shows up to the town square in the morning. The Baner is allowed to protect himself.

  2. Village Vigilante: The vigilante may only use his power once during the game, unless he is blocked, in which case he may try again. During the night, the vigilante submits to me either a name of someone to try to kill, or a 'no kill' message. If he submits a name and is not blocked, that person will die during the night. If the vig targets the wolf who is performing the kill, then that wolf dies and the kill is not performed.

    The death will be mentioned in the morning write-up, but with similar flavor to the wolf kill. If he attacks the same target as the wolves, that person dies, and the vigilante's power counts as used. In the event he is blocked on the same night that he tries to kill, he will be informed that night only that he was blocked and may try again. If he does not try to kill and is blocked, he learns nothing.

  3. Wolf killer: During the night, one wolf is nominated by the wolf team to be the killer. The killer submits a name of a player to me during the night. If the killer is not killed or blocked in some manner, the targetted player dies. This wolf performs the kill in lieu of his alternate power; he's unable to use that power the same night. The doublevoter is disqualified from being the killer if he doublevoted on the preceding day. Although I can't think of a reason why they would do this, the wolves may choose to forgo a kill.

  4. Devil wolf: The devil submits to me one name during the night. He learns, assuming both he and his target survive the night and he is not blocked, whether that person has a special role or not.

  5. Doublevoter wolf: The doublevoter may inform me during the day that he is using his power. If there is a Mayoral race, he may use his power for either the Mayor vote, lynch vote, both or neither. I need to receive the e-mail before the end-of-day deadline. He will add one vote to whoever he's voting for - which will appear in the end-of-day tally by whoever he's voting for. E.g. - if he's one of 2 voters for Mardoc to die, Mardoc will be listed in the tally with Mardoc (3), (VoterA, VoterB). Unless of course the doublevoter was blocked or chooses not to use his power, in which case it would be, as normal, Mardoc (2), (VoterA, VoterB). If he uses his power, he may not perform the kill in the following night. If he is blocked during the night, it carries through the next day - but he is not informed by any means except seeing the final tally.

Wolves may, if they want, grant one another the ability to send in actions for each other. Villagers are of course banned from talking about the game out-of-thread, so it's impossible for them to send in actions for each other. I will accept orders by PM or e-mail, but e-mail is recommended (RBMardoc at gmail dot com). In all cases, the most recent order received will be the valid one.

I expect to resolve each night by needing only to inform the devil of his results, and post a results post in the game thread with casualties. In the unlikely event that the vigilante tries to kill and is blocked, then he will be informed he may try again. No other information will come from me. Aside from the devil's scry result, the only indication of what events occurred will be in the morning's write-up, or in the day's vote tally and death write-up.

Mayor: To break ties, we'll play with a mayor this game. His vote counts for 1.1 votes; he's selected by a vote on the first day and any day the office is vacant, and in the event of a tie, by random selection among those tied.

When a person dies, their role will be revealed.

In addition, we'll borrow the rules from Ichabod:
1. 48 hour days / 24 hour nights. Phase ends at 2200 GMT even if the moderator isn't online.
2. Roles will be randomly assigned. Players will be either human or wolf and may in addition have a secret role. I'll post all the PMs, so to avoid any kind of metagame argument based on them.
3. Humans win if all wolves are eliminated from the game.
4. Wolves win if they make up 50% or more of the remaining voting power at the end of a phase.
5. Wolves may communicate out of thread, humans may not unless allowed to by their role.
6. During the day each player may cast one vote for someone to be lynched.
7. Lynch votes must be posted in red or they will not count.
8. The player with most lynch votes at the end of the day is killed. In the event that two or more players are tied for the most votes, the Mayor's (mayor) vote counts for 1.1 votes. In the event the Mayor wasn't voting for one of the tied players, he should as soon as possible, but at maximum 6 hours from day end choose one to die. If he does not, I will select one of the tied players randomly.
9. Mayor is determined by a vote on any day the office is vacant. In the event of a tie, the mayor will be chosen randomly from those tied. Mayor votes must be posted in lime green, or they will not count.
10. Forum related meta comments (i.e. information acquired by profile camping, “green dot” observation) are strictly banned.
11. Dead players may make one posthumous post that doesn't contribute to discussion.
12. Anyone failing to vote for 2 consecutive game days will be declared MIA and removed from the game.
13. To prevent confusion that may arise in the case of cross posting, posts may not be edited.
14. Breaking the rules will result in penalties ranging from warnings to being mod killed depending on the severity of the infraction.
15. Although the lurker thread will be kept spoiler-free, you may not read it until you are dead or the game is over.

Checking in before I go to bed!

I think that as a villager with a 100% record, I would be a great candidate for mayor!

Vote Twinkletoes89 for increased investment in protection against dangerous animals!

That, and free cookies for all!

Can't be wrong two games in a row? Can I?

Gaspar wins my vote for the best opening post. wink Although, with Lewwyn having not checked in yet, it may still be up in the air...

Just checking in before I'm gone for the night. Internet (and TV, and phone) won't be hooked up until tomorrow, so I'm logging in from work (I had to stay late anyway to tend to a customer). I'll try to check in during the day, but I wouldn't count on too much input from me during the day hours. The days / nights end exactly when I'm supposed to get off work, so I can guarantee I'll miss most of the last-minute fun. Not much I can do about that, I'm afraid. Probably for the best, though - I don't have a good track record when it comes to second-guessing myself (let alone others). smoke

Gaspar, you know I love you man, but I'm gonna have to go with my gut on this one:

Rowain

His level-headed analyses from the sidelines in the last game leads me to believe he'd be a good Mayor candidate. I'd throw your name out there, Gaspar, or Lewwyn's, just to be funny... but I'd rather cast a serious vote for the opening.

Speaking of which, should I preemptively vote Lewwyn for our first lynch candidate, before he gets a chance to stab me in the back again? wink (Or is that joke too old now? :neenernee)

Anyway, already I can tell it's good to be back (so many characters in play! it's gonna be like PBEM14 all over again! lol), so looking forward to a really fun game - with old faces and new alike!

I claim clean slate!

Oh and actually that's not a bad idea.

Also, Uberfish since he's always a wolf.

Oh snap, I didn't even notice uberfish was playing.

Hey everyone, good to see the game get started.

As a disaffected, low information voter I support Gaspar for Mayor!

I see this has started finally. But really, good timing as work has been insanely busy with 3 special projects in the last 2 weeks, so I haven't had time to even follow the rules thread, and now I finally will have time to follow this, as much as I ever do.

I don't know.

Roland.

And...

Roland.

Which is it Mr. Roland? Which team are you trying to lead to victory?
You can get a look at a t-bone by looking up the bulls ass but I'd rather take the butcher's word for it.
