Spawn said the game would start at 9pm tonight. I haven't received a role yet, has anyone else?

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound rude or importunate vis a vis our esteemed modess. Just didn't want to miss out on anything....

It's ok Lalaith. I haven't gotten my role either so it's probably safe to asume that no one has. Hopefully nothing bad has befallen our Modess Godess

Dear Werewolf 13 players,

I'm finally home (I've had school today) and I'll send you your roles soon. The game begins today with a 24-hour-long Night phase, so everyone should have enough time to adopt their roles before Day 1 which begins on Sunday 9:00 pm. GMT.

Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.

Well, that was my main gripe with Kuru's argument - the suggestion that the contribution of those who died somehow didn't count towards the victory.

Surely it depends upon the player's role and the circumstances of the game? There are times at which a player should do his or her best to stay alive. But there are other times when a move likely to result in their death will be a good move.

You see, the beauty of this game is that there is often no "one size fits all" strategy. A particular move may be a brilliant masterstroke, or it may spell disaster. It all depends upon circumstances. Blanket statements do not capture the dynamism and variety of the game.
