Werewolf 2 Planning Thread

[MJW (ya that one)]

It does matter if we start early because a player would befenit from knowing who is a werewolf from the last game. You would be more on your toes if you know how a wolf acts.

That said I don't have a problem starting early. I hope I am not the banner!

I would like to wait for the current game to be done first.

[Ug the Barbarian]

I'm happy to start now or when the current game ends (- just practising my fence sitting for when it starts )

[Rowain]

I prefer to wait till game is finished but if the majority wants to start sooner it's no problem.

Can I still sign up for this?

I went ahead and added you to the player roster. fire&ice gets final say though since he is running the show, so if he has a problem with jumping from 19 players to 20, then I'll take you off, but I imagine it'll be ok.

IMO for future games we should edit the lynching system so that the day ends when over 50% of the people have voted for a specific person, so we don't have unnecessarily long days.

For example if 17 people are alive, when 9 people have voted for a guy, day ends and that person is lynched. Because when there's that many people voting for someone his death is pretty much a foregone conclusion. And if you don't want the day to end early, just don't vote for a guy if it will end the day. Wolves/Mafia can't get over that border themselves, so that shouldn't be an issue.

If 50% is too low the number could be adjusted to something higher but 50% works imo.

I would also like to play- if it's not too late.

I like the fact that you have a specific end date to work to. The fact that the day ends at the same time each day is really useful too. Although I am not playing in this game, I thought i'd point out my experience from the 1st game.

It also means that you can't play the voting so easily which is a pretty good tactic for forcing people to speak up.

Nah alot of the fun comes from the vote-switching which as game 1 has shown clearly can sometimes lead to surprise kills. A lot of what novice+krill did in this game would not have happened had your rule been effective.
Besides as SL points out it makes it alot easier if you have fixed ending time.
