Members don't see this ad.

So you’re saying there’s a chance 😉

Lol sounds like she was testing the waters

At least that's what I do. Try to gauge the reaction and how much trouble I'm going to be in by signing up for a new game.

For the record I would totally try to get @cessnaflyer to play, but he really is too busy with work.

 

[Crayola227]

.....and that moment you remember this is prevet

Lol I actually had a nightmare just before I woke up that this got me put on probation on SDN

In case you hadn't been tagged or nagged about the current game sign ups in prevet for Countdown 3.5. We need like 3 more.

 

[Crayola227]

Does @Skimble play anymore?

 

[Animal Midwife]

Does @Skimble play anymore?

She doesn't even get on SDN anymore, so she probably won't see this tag.

 

[Crayola227]

She doesn't even get on SDN anymore, so she probably won't see this tag.

Bummer, when people turn off activity for WW and then drop off the map you can't see their last seen anymore. I guess I could look at the last time she posted but that isn't the same.

 

[alissa14]

Maybe if anthony has fun with the speed game I can convince him to sign up for this one!!!

 

[Crayola227]

We only need 3 to defect from the tots list.... c'mon, be a hero and play!!!

 

[Cyndia]

Can I get added to tots? I can’t play buuuut def down to watch I think.

 

[PippyPony]

What if I promise everyone I'll restrict myself to <15 reasonably sized posts per day

 

[Crayola227]

What if I promise everyone I'll restrict myself to

]And what if I promise everyone I'll restrict myself to less than 50 reasonably sized post per day lol

I'm proceeding with Option 4, after I get lunch

Spoiler

If you'd like to back out since this is in fact not what you signed up for, please do so now
If you're opposed to Option 4 but still want to play a werewolf game very desperately, I will switch to Option 2 and host a near-vanilla game if there is considerable opposition so feel free to voice that too

Hosting Option 4 is a somewhat lengthy process, similar to that of the initial Choose Your Own game, where I will roll my 100 sided dice, twice for each player and those dice results will form the role options for you to choose from. You pick the one you want, and the other will be publicly revealed with everyone else's in a public discard list. No two people will receive the same numbers.

For example:

You receive the following options:
Vanilla Townie
Miller

You hypothetically pick Vanilla Townie, and discard the Miller. You will be a Vanilla Townie for the game.

I will veto any collection of roles I deem as unacceptable in terms of balance, using my own discretion, so be warned that there may be anywhere from 0 to several rerolls. During the roll process, you are free to drop from the game as well if you think this is taking too long.

 

[Animal Midwife]

now you've done it

 

[Aprilthearab]

During the roll process, you are free to drop from the game as well if you think this is taking too long.

How long do you think this process is going to take if you'd think people would drop the game over it??

I'm playing regardless, just wondering lol

 

[Dr. ForgotToFlush]

well if i do like, 12 hour cycles for the picks then it can add an extra day or two to the runtime

 

[Aprilthearab]

Oh that's no big deal. The way you said it made it sound like it could take a week or something

 

[PippyPony]

@Dr. ForgotToFlush if I am a vanilla townie -- or at a worst, a miller -- I will RIOT

 

[PippyPony]

Oh maybe I should read these posts.

I'm on a hiatus from regular-length WW games but by god this game is tempting

 

[Dr. ForgotToFlush]

anyone signing up from this point forward does so as a sub

 

[sunshinefl]

@Dr. ForgotToFlush if I am a vanilla townie -- or at a worst, a miller -- I will RIOT

I don't even know what a miller is

 

[PippyPony]

I don't even know what a miller is

Innocent manatee, trust me when I say it is the worst.

Spoiler: Edit: since that article is confusing

It's a villager that seers as wolf.

That's it. The only ability is to look sketchy af if seered. My worst nightmare lol

 

[Aprilthearab]

Flushy, you better respond to PMs unlike in Apocalypse because I'm gonna have a billion and one questions if I get a role I've never seen before.

that's interesting because even just knowing there are possible millers in the game, wolves could claim miller.... hmmm

 

[PippyPony]

I... have never thought of doing this...

Someone should revoke my manator card at some point. Or there should be CE for this shiz or something.

 

[Ms Procrastinator]

It just renders seer useless.

 

[Ms Procrastinator]

One easy way of dealing with millers is to not trust seering results and just look at their play. If their play is sus yeet them regardless.

 

[Animal Midwife]

Oho, but here's where Lawpy's fantasies finally come into play. Wolves are unable to be investigated correctly by cops. So only mafia would claim miller.

aren't wolves/ mafia different terms for the same thing?

 

[Animal Midwife]

aren't wolves/ mafia different terms for the same thing?

Not in a multiball game.

 

[Dr. ForgotToFlush]

Not in a multiball game.

yep, there is a distinction here
mafia and werewolves are separate entities for all intents and purposes

 

[PippyPony]

Lol I'm sitting here thinking about how to come up with a WW continuing education scam

I'm going to be very pedantic this whole game.

 

[PippyPony]

I'm going to be very pedantic this whole game.

Why do I feel like we're about to be living in the Princess Diaries

 

[Crayola227]

Miller might claim miller.

 

[Crayola227]

The real answer is that this is true, unless it's a multiball set up.

 

[Crayola227]

I'm going to be very pedantic this whole game.

Bring it.

 

[Crayola227]

I'm willing to play whatever, but pretty bummed we didn't get 3 more for Countdown.

 

[Dr. ForgotToFlush]

Alright all choices have been sent.

Please do not discuss your choices publicly. You have 12 hours to choose, or whenever I wake up, whichever comes first, to choose you role or I will decide for you.

Feel free to prompt me for any additional clarifications in your pms.
Additional reminder that you are still allowed to back out of the game at any point between now and when the setup is finalized.

GREAT
