Why, thanks! I have been thinking about the Barrow Downs a fair bit lately, and recently bought a card game version of this game... and had a sudden urge to play some TIG. And there's a game getting set to start! Couldn't be any more perfect, really

I've heard of the card version. Is it any good, or is straight up roleplaying superior?

If I ever manage to get more than 8 of my friends to show up to a board games night at the same time, I'll let you know! I must admit it was a bit of an impulse buy since the best we've done is 8... and this game requires a MINIMUM of 8 :P

It's the same exact game as we play here, only you need more face-to-face reading skills instead of textual analysis.

Ah, then my poker face I've acquired through Magic: The Gathering will be of great use, and sending false signals should be a breeze.

Back from the (un)dead, I see! A glorious surprise to see you again, dear.


P.S. I have the same problem getting enough people for RL Werewolf. Harrumph.

Excellent!

Uh… you may want to change your avatar before the game commences, Rikae. Just a thought.

Reverse psychology.

"Rikae looks so wolfish, she couldn't possibly be a wolf!"

I'm already starting to suspect you with that profile picture. I guess mine doesn't do me much good, either, in the way of convincing others I am not a beast.

Well, the last time I posted around here I was still trying to get into Med School... I'll be Dr. Farael next May! Incidentally, guess why I've been so busy!

But when I saw that card game I was hit by a literal(ly figurative) flood of memories and I Just had to check and see if there was a Werewolf game happening... and not only there was one, but it was getting started!

I look forward to taking a stab at this game again

What an excellent pun! Hohohoho!

Mr. Tarry, bring it on! But you'll find a feather's touch will be needed else you'll end up looking a-chicken

I hate double-posting, but..

Do we have an estimate on when we might start the game? I am free-ish for the next couple weeks (as free as a medical student ever is... so not very), but I may be skipping town in late December
