Tol-in-Gaurhoth (Isle of Werewolves) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Lalaith · 07-11-2005, 03:33 AM

I'm so tempted but I've just got too much on at the moment to get involved.
And I know how werewolf can get scarily absorbing....during WW IV, my loved ones became somewhat concerned when I started looking at my watch saying "oh my goodness I've got to get home for the lynching."
But by the next game, things should be quieter chez Lalaith and I'll be back....

Mmm, pizza, in a Medieval-type village, okay I'm the gourmet chef. I think someone was that before but, hey, everybody needs to eat!!

Edit: It would be quite interesting to see a game with just established 'loud' group. Now that would be something, with the no double (or more) lynchings rule.
Firefoot, Feanor, Suacepan Man, Fordim, Phantom, TGWBS, LMP, Barrow-wight, I'm sorry if I'm forgetting anyone.
All the plans to save the village with debate, all the lists and theories with debate, it would probably be the longest game thread.

The opposite though would be quite boring, only us 'quiet' ones. LOL-I don't think anyone would get lynched.

I had thought of being a King too Morm, but I reckon that such a small village is bound to come under the lands of a King sitting in a palace somewhere. He's probably never heard of our little village. I doubt he has a lute maestro like me in his court.

*shakes fist*

To answer questions: No, I didn't forget Lhuna. I just forgot to write her down on my "master list". I've even got several deaths picked out for her, should she be killed. Given her Lhunatic status, one should work even better than the others.

Eomer: We are rushing because if we don't get started soon, we run the risk of running past the time expected, and the mod will be unavoidably out of town for several days. Should we start tomorrow, as expected, everything will be obeykaybe, but if we wait, there's a high chance the game would have to be stalled, ended prematurely, or handed over to someone else while I go take college placement tests, meet new classmates, register for classes, and go into debt for the next ten years.

Okay... Recruitment is over. Our players for this game are:

Eomer
Firefoot
Gil-Galad
Holbytlass
Kath
littlemanpoet
mormegil
Lhuna
Nilpaurion Felagund
Orominuialwen
Saurreg
the guy who be short

Roles will be chosen in about thirty seconds, and they will be sent out rather soon.

Also to be posted soon is the new game thread with all of the rules and roles. Don't post on it. Any questions, PM me and I'll either answer you in private, or I'll answer your question publicly on this thread.

The game will begin 9:30 EDT tomorrow morning.

Everybody playing should remain invisible until the end of the game.

Good luck, and may the force be with you.

Feanor of the Peredhil · 07-11-2005, 08:11 AM

Roles have all been assigned. Everyone playing should be invisible. Day begins tomorrow. The Seer needs to send me a name before then.

Oddwen · 07-11-2005, 09:26 AM

I've missed this game. Ah well. I couldn't form a coherent logical argument to save my life.

Which happens to be the entire point of the game, so...ahem.

Perhaps I shall volunteer to mod a game, nonetheless.

Feanor of the Peredhil · 07-11-2005, 09:34 AM

Aw... poor Oddy. I'm sorry. If you do mod, make sure that you have quite a lot of free time.

littlemanpoet · 07-11-2005, 10:14 AM

I need this mythomaniac thing explained to me a little more; Feanor's rules post left me confused. I didn't really get it in MMV either. Does the mythomaniac pick the role of some other villager? And then there can be two Hunters, for example? I get how it works if the MM picks a werewolf, and I guess that means there can be three shirriffs? Or does one shirriff stop being a shirriff and morph into an ungifted villager so that the MM can be the shirriff, for example?
