Oh, i just realized, im gone for the weekend of feb 17-19. i don't know if that is a problem. i could prolly make the occational post, but the majority of the time i will be unavailible. if taht is a problem....

Gandalf_the _white · 02-07-2006, 05:37 AM

whats the role of a mythomaniac? I'd like to play anoter game but people who were in the last game with me will be able to tell you that i don't get regular access to a computer and may take a long time posting.

Thinlómien · 02-07-2006, 07:42 AM

I've never played a game with a mytho, so I think it'd be cool to have one now...

Roa_Aoife · 02-07-2006, 01:23 PM

The mythomaniac, as I understand it, is somewhat along the same lines as the Cursed. At the end of Night 2, the mytho sends the name of one other player to the mod (I don't know if they have to be alive or not.) They then take on the role of that player. Ie, if they send the name of a wolf, the mytho becomes a fourth wolf, if they send the name of the hunter, they become a second hunter, and so on. In the event of the hunter or ranger being chosen, they will be introduced to their fellow "angels," if it is a wolf they will be introduced to the other wolves, but if it is the seer, they will not know about each other till they are revealed to everyone else.

In the event that the mytho picks an ordinary villager, they become an ordinary villager, and they are not allowed to reveal their status as the mytho.

Hope that helps!

EDIT:Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

JennyHallu · 02-07-2006, 01:43 PM

Sounds tricksy. Also sounds, especially at only Night 2, that he more than likely remains a villager. Unless we don't get any more people joining the game...sort of a low tally so far.

Sleepy Ranger · 02-07-2006, 02:25 PM

Meh, I find the role of a mytho to be flawed but nevermind that. This should be a good game since I'm in it and I've got a bad habit of keeping things interesting especially for the new comers. Well this game will probably continue till after the 20th Feb so I get the next spot as mod, right?

Sleepy Ranger · 02-09-2006, 11:16 AM

My occupation shall be being the Messiah of Rock 'n' Roll and I'll live in an abandoned record company and of course I'd never be seen anywhere without a guitar on my back.

JennyHallu · 02-09-2006, 11:19 AM

What do you mean, give our occupations? Feeling like a noob...

Sleepy Ranger · 02-10-2006, 07:16 AM

Alright, I'm going to try once more... Could anyone give me the list of mods in order of their turns?

Mithalwen · 02-10-2006, 07:17 AM

I think it is you next if you are able, then me if I am

Folwren · 02-07-2006, 03:37 PM

I would like to play, if the rest of you are all game for it.

Here's why you may not be:

I only have internet access for three days out of the week. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. This being the case, I will have a handicap on me because I will not be around for some of the DAYS, I won’t be able to read everybody’s posts, so I won’t get as clear an idea of bad and good people, if I am a wolf, my fellow wolves will not have my input half the time, and if I am a gifted, the guesses I make at night will be only half based on what little I am able to read. Saying thus, you must realize that I will not be the only person handicapped, but the entire village populace will be.

But, you see, if I do play, and as these problems will definitely be there, it will add some sort of challenge to everybody. Will you trust me, or will you not? Will what posts I get in prove me guilty or innocent? Will your fears of my possible wolfishness drive you to kill me almost at once, or will you wait a while. . .wait an watch. . .?

Until people start clamoring for me to kicked off the list of players, I would like to be considered in. However, as soon as people think that I shouldn’t play, I won’t put up a fuss about leaving.

---------------------------

Before I go, I’d like to say that I’m very averse to the idea of there being a mythomaniac. I just don’t like the idea. . .like Firefoot. . .

Valier · 02-07-2006, 04:48 PM

Well It looks like I will get to play after all! I 'm a little scraped up and bruised....But I'm in! So addicting......

I think the mythomaniac could be cool but, it does seem a little confusing. Folwen If others don't care, I say you can play...But I can't say I won't vote for you sooner than later

Folwren · 02-08-2006, 12:09 PM

That's fine. I won't put up a fuss. What if I turn out to be a wolf? Then it'd be better if you had already told me you'd get rid of me sooner than later. . .

-- Folwren

Mithalwen · 02-08-2006, 12:10 PM

Mythos are great in the right circumstances ie in big games where you aren't quite sure an extra wolf is justified. In my game the Mytho deliberately chose to be a wolf!!!!
