WW26: The Masquerade [Game Thread]

[Kate The Waif]

Kate the Waif, because, as far as I can remember I always first vote for her.

It's bad enough that I'm a waif, and now I'm accused of being a werewolf?

I have a surname, by the way. I'm not sure that means anything, though.

There's precedence

HAHAHAHAH

Well, that's certainly not me.

How exactly is Muriel's post a wall of text? It's 2 paragraphs, and ~10 lines on my screen. Seems an entirely appropriate length for a mildly elaborate "hey idiots, stop analysing useless meta" post.

Because its waffling, going back and forth without reaching a conclusion. and as someone else said, it brings up meta ideas while dismissing them and avoids actually saying anything in favor of posting words.
that said, its also because the screen being small exacerbates the suze of the post

because it failed last time, Muriel the Slow

My surname is Cot, which is what I have lying in the last few hours, trying to recover freom this nasty hangover. I think there was something wrong with that ale.


It seems strange to me that novice hasn't shown up yet. He's usually here right away for these games, ready to boost his post count. Where are you hiding novice?

1. I did not claim vainillina town. What I meant was that was that was all the FLAVOR information I was given in my role-pm.

2. I don't like Slow's post number 26. As Orphan/Rob said it is extremely fluffy. I also don't like his bad logic after I pointed out that the wolfs are extremely unlikely to fake-claim; because a fake claim has a extremely high chance of causing an easy wolf lynch. The pieces of the post also don't fit together. If the player is a vet of werewolf the post is too upbeat, fluffy, glowing and warm. A noob would not make such a long, metagameish and complex post right at the start of the game. So I feel he is a wolf just posting BS.

3. There is a very high chance of changing my vote to Slow if Percival post something because of the above.

4. I have to give an about Doctor Saul's comment about a sex change operation and off to bed!

why sign up if you don't want to play by the rules?

What do you mean?

spoiler because it doesn't really belong here:

This

I don't want to play as a female character so I switched my avatar to Courage. Please call me that.

and

The best move would be to everyone claim their real names to give the town more information.

and the following meta-discussion. While not directly forbidden it undermines the reason for all the work and is in my book contrary to what we agreed to play here.

Apparently I'm just old-fashioned but those women wanting to become men are one reason why god has forsaken us and sent those brute beasts.

this +1
and I think it does belong as it has a direct effect on how its being played, and is very frustrating given work gone in

Darrells () post is very funny - forgot to quote

For myself and anyone else losing track, the following haven't posted:

Simple Anne
Fat Rose
Old Tom
Sister Mary
Sir Percival

I dont like Lizzy piling on and then saying she'll switch off - why percival too???

[Scarlet John]

Expanding on this, it seems any last names are tied to our roles. We are all called by our first name, nick name, or both. Any last name received would be interchangeable, and they were received specifically in a role-PM. Last names might yet play a part in this game. They might be used by a role or multiple roles, or they could be part of other gameplay at some point. Whatever it is, there's no need to start guessing. Unless someone has more information, they are no help to us, and should be ignored.

I don't like the way Muriel states the obvious in this post either.

That said I'm not sure why people are busy claiming whether they have a surname or not, for example:

Sir Percival, for being more influential than me.

Lacking a surname here as well.

Friar Andrew, for defending someone while simultaneously making a joke vote and contributing to the "useless meta" surrounding surnames.
