Jeez, TGWBS. Using a calculator? You've got me beat, technology-wise. My plans involve meenying some eenies. Well... that's tied with IMing whoever happens to be online and saying "Hey, which name sounds more werewolfish to you?"

Thanks for telling us Fea. In your game, all we have to do is eenie-meeny through the list of players, and whoever we land in is a wolf. Simple!

Untrue. You see, the variables (order of names, order of parts) allow for an amazingly large variety of combinations. And besides... I've heard many an Eeny Meenie in my day, and all that is Moed is not equal.

That death rocks tgwbs.

And dancing spawn, you must know by now that the mods randomly assign the roles? 'Twouldn't be fair otherwise. I used a complicated method involving the racing of mice.

Don't ask.

True, but it wouldn't be fair either if some people got to be gifted many times in a row and others were regular villagers every time.

I won't.

TGWBS, that death you planned for the baker is absolutely disgusting! Well, in a good way, I guess. Though it is an interesting addition to lycanthropy lore that werewolves can bake pies.

I think youhave to let it be random for each game rather than try and factor in previous games. The laws of probabilityshould sort things out if you use a genuinely random pick. With my game actually you are less likely to be a villager than have a role....

Why not? They have the opposable thumbs.
On a slightly off topic note, has anybody realised how bored the person who invented pie must have been? I mean, who would come up with the idea of inflating pastry and shoving meat inside it?

Hmmm. Now the question that really begs answering is: were Sauron's werewolves related to his Wargs? Eomer?
