What even is this?? I want to play... I don't even know what WW means... X
WW=Werewolf (if you've ever heard of Mafia, it's similar). Sign up on the waitlist/substitutes - that way if someone has to leave the game for some reason, you can be subbed in Read through the rest of this thread, since some basic stuff about WW has been stated.

WZ thanks for sharing the guides and strategy link! I'm gonna bookmark it and read it after my last final (biochem :| ) on Thursday.WW=Werewolf (if you've ever heard of Mafia, it's similar).

If you have a bunch of time on your hands and...
...You're interested in reading past game threads, go here
...You want to read some really interesting guides and strategy things and basically throw a bunch of time down the drain because you're a giant nerd like me, go here (We do some things differently here, but really WW is WW)
...You just want a pretty basic rundown, go here and click "What is Mafia?"
...You want to read up on some roles that might find their way into a game in one way or another, go here
He has declared that he identifies as a noob!Is someone going to remove LIS from the noob list? That would let @hygebeorht play!

As a noob, I didn't even know that "WW" meant "werewolf."
I just want to emphasize DVMD's point..... Especially if you have an ability for night, don't forget to plan for an action.
I have even sent very specific/complicated instructions to the mods if I am going to be unavailable. Obviously this is a last resort, but forgetting to perform your action really detracts from the game. When a mod designs a more complicated game she/he will normally assume abilities are used. When they are randomly forgotten, it really impacts the game sometimes. That is no bueno.
Such an underappreciated movieIt's really more like this:
I thought it stood for "watch and wait" or "wizards and warriors," or something like that.What did you think it meant DocS? I promise not to laugh (hard).
Read the first post in this thread and the couple links in it and I guarantee you'll be much more up to date.I thought it stood for "watch and wait" or "wizards and warriors," or something like that.
I am still big time clueless about some of the other terms I've been hearing tossed around on SDN, such as "ability for night."
I also thought "villagers" were hideous and murderous "zombies" until some SDNers mentioned that villagers are "good" characters in the game, and wolves are not.
Sounds intriguing!
@Trilt, I read the first post and one link - you're correct: they provided extra info. Thank you!Read the first post in this thread and the couple links in it and I guarantee you'll be much more up to date.
I am respecting that LIS identifies as a noob and think we should all support him during this transition period.
(I make things happen, don't worry).

Okay guys, we're just over one week out! I will be assigning mentors early next week so you can get a bit acquainted before roles and such goes out.
Right now I just want to double check that people realize what they're getting into, game-wise. You should expect to check in at least once every day and night cycle, or to submit contingencies if you are going to be temporarily away. Many people will have "abilities" that can be used during the evening, so you don't want to only show up for the lynching (day) phase and then miss out on the evening. Ideally you'll check in a couple times so that back and forth discussion can occur.
If you think you'll be too busy or aren't interested enough, I'd like people to step out now vs. after the game begins and roles are out. So just make sure you're willing to spend a bit of time and have some fun.
Endings are hard to predict but usually the number of days is somewhere around half the number of players, barring extra kills or lots of resurrections/hard to kill roles/successful protectorsHooray! @Trilt when will it end?
I have an interview Jan. 8 and might not be around much then and the day before. But checking in once or twice those days still seems feasible!
The Stand. Best game everALRIGHT. Finals are over. Time to read more WW! I was halfway through Vet School WW. I've read WWFarm (one of the first newbie games), WWhores, Camp WW. Any recommendations? Haha
haha I'll check that one out as soon as I finish the Vet School one!The Stand. Best game ever
Not biased, no not at all
ALRIGHT. Finals are over. Time to read more WW! I was halfway through Vet School WW. I've read WWFarm (one of the first newbie games), WWhores, Camp WW. Any recommendations? Haha
Hahaha if you're looking for a good explanation of the game as well as understanding what mistakes not to make as a noob, I definitely recommend the WW Farm. Either that or Child's Play (the second WW noob game). I haven't read Child's Play yet, but it's good.Ooh, which one would you recommend? I haven't read any yet!
Oh man, the meme game was a really solid read through. Dr. Seuss, too. Mysterious Planet. History of the WWorld.ALRIGHT. Finals are over. Time to read more WW! I was halfway through Vet School WW. I've read WWFarm (one of the first newbie games), WWhores, Camp WW. Any recommendations? Haha
Well before that hopefully! I expect less than two weeks, although you never truly know.Hooray! @Trilt when will it end?
I have an interview Jan. 8 and might not be around much then and the day before. But checking in once or twice those days still seems feasible!
I have such a love hate relationship with Dr. SeussOh man, the meme game was a really solid read through. Dr. Seuss, too. Mysterious Planet. History of the WWorld.
Of my games, I'm a little bummed you read the camp one! I think Post-Apocalyptic Pokémon is a pretty good read, if a messy game. Rick & Morty is amusing if you know the source material (and if you don't, you should watch it) and I personally really love Minecraft Dali as far as storyline goes.
It's just super fun to read through!I have such a love hate relationship with Dr. Seuss
I can imagine. A lot of...interesting things happened that gameIt's just super fun to read through!

If you're looking for a quick game that's really funny, check out WWhores. I was crying laughing haha
Put in your night action before you go to bed and you are set@Trilt So 6am EST is 3am PST. I usually go to bed around 12-1am so would I always be asleep for the morning cycle. Would I need to put a contingency in each time? Would that work?
Thinking about Dr. Seuss makes me miss BI. Tell her to come back @SummerTheLynx
Well tell her I miss her anywayI am rereading as a reward mechanism for when I get note cards correct. It's a pretty funny read overall.
She is way too busy to start back up. At least for now anyways.

oh goodness you do not need to be awake at night close. *I* wouldn't be awake that early for night close if I didn't have to be due to my work schedule. You just have to submit actions before that deadline.@Trilt So 6am EST is 3am PST. I usually go to bed around 12-1am so would I always be asleep for the morning cycle. Would I need to put a contingency in each time? Would that work?
Gotcha!Can you take my name off the list please? I'm sorry I don't think I'll have enough time to check in that much.

I was thinking a day or two ago that based on the join dates in our profiles, we joined about a week apart but I have 835 posts [edit: 836 now!] and you have 22,095. (Not a criticism at all, just something I noticed recently, haha)Y'all I used to talk in games a lot. Good times.
I had >500 posts in the Dr. Seuss game. Like, wut.I was thinking a day or two ago that based on the join dates in our profiles, we joined about a week apart but I have 835 posts [edit: 836 now!] and you have 22,095. (Not a criticism at all, just something I noticed recently, haha)
