Camp Werewolf - Game Thread

[PippyPony]

Welcome Campers to

~ CAMP WEREWOLF ~
Est. 1932

Camp Director: @PippyPony | Activities & Program Director: @cubsrule4e | CIT Program Leader: @Karabiner13

________


Secrets secrets are no fun...so this game is a PARTIALLY OPEN SET UP.

Camp is a place to develop talents and learn new skills. As such, every player starts this game as VANILLA.
SPECIAL ABILITIES will be granted as prizes to those who win the GROUP COMPETITIONS, which will be announced over the PA system by the camp director when they are about to occur. Typically you will have at least ONE CYCLE to work together as a team and send in your submission for the challenges. The ACTIVITY GROUPS you have chosen for yourselves will dictate the types of BADGES, DISTINCTIONS & REWARDS you will receive for winning these competitions. In the interest of fairness, no group may win more than TWO competitions.
Stay tuned for more information on these special events once you're all settled in your cabins.

Camp is also a place to face new challenges and conquer fears, so the WOLF RATIO is higher than what you might be used to seeing in regular games.

We believe in giving everyone equal opportunity to prove themselves, so TIES will be resolved by NO DEATHS the first time, followed by ONE DEATH in subsequent ties.

We expect many of you will make new friends during your stay here at camp. To facilitate the formation of new relationships and strengthening of old ties, you may PM FREELY WITHIN YOUR ACTIVITY GROUP. You MUST ADD MODS to any individually-created PMs. Group PMs will be created for you.

TAPS will be played each night at 9pm Eastern. REVEILLE will be played at 12am Eastern (may be subject to change depending on how much you wear out your camp directors).

[PippyPony]

Give your butler the secret handshake and say goodbye...




While some of you are still being assigned to your cabin units*, you may now begin posting.

It's THE FIRST DAY OF CAMP!!


*and this might take a while because SDN is SO MAD AT ME for sending PMs, so please be patient. Reminder: you are all vanilla anyways.​

[Animal Midwife]

Hi

 

[Barkley13]

Ugh I’m never fast enough to be first

 

[PippyPony]

!! ATTENTION CAMPERS !!

It's only the first day of camp, but our famous Color Wars games are fast approaching, so it's time to work with your teams to start spreading your team spirit!

CHALLENGE #1:
WRITE A TEAM CHEER

Your team colors for Color Wars are as follows:

Archery = Yellow
Arts & Crafts = Purple
Water Sports = Blue
Orienteering = Green

Team Submissions will be accepted until the close of N1. ​

 

[PippyPony]

FYI -- TEAM PMs will be created by mods. (As fast as SDN will let me make them).

Beyond that, individual PMs still within your activity group can be created by players but must have mods added.

This brings back all the warm fuzzies from Girl Scout camp.

 

[Ms Procrastinator]

Yellow! I've been on yellow teams practically all my life.

Day 1 Capture the Flag Points* Tally

AM (1) - Navilly
Emlady (1) - Coop

2/16 players on the offensive
Tagging ends at 9pm Eastern (~9.5 hours)

*This is stylistic only and functions like a normal lynch tally. In the classic camp game Capture the Flag, players can be caught & tagged "frozen" a few times before they are officially tagged out.

 

[Barkley13]

Lynch nav

Seems like a good idea

 

[Navilly]

Wait is taps and revellie just mean lynch close and night close?

Pretty sure yup

Tagging ends at 9pm Eastern (~7 hours)

 

[Dr. ForgotToFlush]

vote Animal Midwife
she's frozen

 

[Dr. ForgotToFlush]

anyway high ratio means 5 wolves
maybe 6 if pippy's being mean
or 4 plus a conversion
one per group minimum to be expected
so by the end of the day i expect everyone to have solid reads on their group members

Also really??? That’s how capture the flag is played? I am learning. I always just played freeze tag. 😛

Of course, obviously. Because that is my all time favorite thing to do is vote in a way that makes me Wolfy right out of the gate.

 

[dolphin106258]

Also there’s no reason to automatically box yourself into saying that there is a wolf on each team, but sure go ahead.

 

[Dr. ForgotToFlush]

it isn't an unreasonable guess
the only way i'd be super wrong is if there are 4 wolves on one team
which would be -ev for town from a balance standpoint

 

[Coopah]

Don't start with this ****

I’m assuming that what wolves are in each group is super random. So I’m confused what you’re saying here, who ever RNG’ed as a wolf is a wolf. Doesn’t matter what group they’re in. There could be 2 in 2 groups and only be four total, or 3 and 2 or one in every group. The point is there’s not really anything helpful by speculating who’s in what group. Idk how it impacts game balance at all.

Why is your voting wolfy?

You know what
I forgot that people signed up to be in groups before the rand
anyway i still want people to give reads on their group members
because they have the most information about them
makes sense?

He just wants to stir the **** pot and ruffle feathers. And I’m sure for saying this I’m wolf number 4 🙄

Clearly you're so right, let's just let you make all the decisions and bow down to your wisdom 🙄

So I'll be ignoring this

uhhh huhhh
you don't think you're starting to project here at all?
because all i've said so far is that there are probably 5 wolves and that you should make reads on the people in your group pm

 

[Dr. ForgotToFlush]

you can stick your nose out all you want
do you actually disagree with anything I've said
(minus the one in each thing group, the randtime slipped my mind)

 

[PippyPony]

Depends. The rules vary. The version we played at my camp* allowed for people to be tagged once and frozen, but tagged more than once -- or tagged in certain zones -- and you were out of the game.

This version works very similarly to a lynch tally. Imagine that!


*not actually where I went to camp, but the wonderful YMCA camp where I worked as an adult. As a kid, I went to a horseback riding camp that played a variant of capture the flag called "good guys/bad guys" that was made up by the camp director's husband. Basically was Calvinball but with horses involved (sometimes) and across a large area. And I think there were plastic guns or water guns? idk it was a wicked long time ago.

The way you write reminds me of a weird poem. 😕

Also I agree with dolph that the woofs are probably not spread out so evenly. Entropy always wins

unlynch AM, lynch coopah
bc the overreaction is literally the only thing to work with rn

 

[Navilly]

Brief pause in the schedule, while the AM vote was 60% a toying vote to start, the brevity of posts and how they have posted is coming off weird, so I am sticking on AM. Just had two emergencies walk through the door, so let’s see if the night lets me check back in at all.

[dolphin106258]

Why is your voting wolfy?

Because FTF said it was, so I was therefore being facetious in response. I didn’t think it was that unclear.

 

[dolphin106258]

Lol how many people will come on after nine with OH MY GOSH lynch close was at 9?!?!
