And to add on the earlier one...

With a village of about twenty there would be four wolves and two kills by Night until the number of wolves is down to two - and then it would be one kill per Night.



So what say you?

Comments?

It's more complex than I usually go for, but I like it. As long as it starts soon, I'm in.

I'm in... though I will probably need some rule clarifications.

It's actually complex for me - and to certain extent to the wolves. To others it should be fairly simple... just play your role and hope for the best with all you have.

But yes, I like it too.

That depends on you guys as how fast you join. I'd hope we could start within a week... hopefully earlier.

There will be those. After we have discussed what needs to be discussed I will post the final rules into the first post of this thread so there is an easy access to them.

Well, as one living in Finland (GMT+3 during these daylight-savings) it would be something like 9PM GMT - an hour here or there could be negotiable.

Silly Sally signing up, sir. Sort of.

(Aka put me down with a question mark. Deadline's a bit rubbish for me, but I'll definitely think it over.)

I'm in. I can make that deadline work although with school and my timezone I will have only about an hour and a half each day and on Tuesdays I won't be able to get on before deadline at all.

Sally & Hakon: Would an hour more (or less) help you with the DL?


One rule-clarification I realised I hadn't made but have thought of already (well, subject to substantial criticism).

If you don't like your Captain one of you should say it out aloud during a Day. When someone makes a no-confidence vote the position is open to a general vote. If half of the village gives their votes (in case of uneven villagers the smaller number is enough) the votes will be counted and the one getting most votes will be the Captain. In a case of a tie the old one continues. If less than half of the village votes there will be no change in leadership.

I thought we should not automatically vote for the Captain every Day for a few reasons. First of all it would complicate the game if you'd have to think about that and vote for it every Day. Secondly it relates better to the real life where changing leaders requires someone to have a nerve to stand up and declare his unhappiness with the current leadership...
