Monty Python and the Holy Grail Official WW game thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Yay for SnS!

But I'm not so happy that SnS got elected because cuit didn't get elected.

But it doesn't matter anyway because cuit didn't have enough votes.

I wonder what's going to happen tonight! Hopefully we don't lose a helpful person!
 
Where is all the pre-vet chatter? You all just elected your leader in less than 2 pages. I think that may be a record here.
Well noted...

TigerWillow and Abney aren't playing this game (they have taken leave of WW during the semester)... The games have been substantially less chatty without them. They were pretty much #1 and #2 posting.

And DVMdream, who usually plays, is missing this game.. She has often been the #1 poster recently..

So..... expect a less chatty game than the one you played in earlier over here.
 
NIGHT 1 RESULTS:

So it was the Robin Hood and his merry men had received their quest and started through the forest drinking, and fighting, and fornicating, and generally causing a lot of unrest….

Oh wait, wrong legend? Well, you have to admit that all these legends seem awfully similar. Men in silly outfits, only one woman character, and lots of alcohol and swords….

Anyway, like I was saying.. King Arthur and his horny men had received their quest and started through the forest drinking, and fighting, and fornicating, and generally causing a lot of unrest…. There was a lot of discussion about what this questing was about. The consensus seemed to fall on drinking (which met with approval from at least one mod), a small subset decided that rape and fornicating were the key points, but there was one lone voice saying that the quest meant hard work, and sacrifice, and living a godly life. After much laughing and derision, DVMDream was sent on her way, deemed not worthy of being a part of THIS fellowship.

One particularly horny member of our crew decided that the job of the healer was to cure the world of virginity, and proceeded to deflower all of the remaining virgins left in this little corner of the world – admittedly a small number. All I can say is: Mission accomplished. Well done. As far as any impact on our game…. Uh, no.

Strangely the actions of many of our questing folks (lupine and otherwise) revolved around a single player. Hell, can't remember so many different things occurring to one player so early in a game. This particular person was enchanted, was then turned into a newt, and then quite luckily, while a newt, had a huge wooden rabbit launched, and landed on top of them. Quite luckily, being a newt they were able to evade escape just being slightly wounded and dazed. Finally, another villager came upon a really cool sword, inlaid with gold. While scraping off the gold to sell at the market, the villager decided the sword needed a name… and named it Excel. All the other questers were so busy laughing their arses off that they couldn't stop this person from trying to kill the poor little newt as it stumbled passed. Again, the goddess of RNG was kind to our newt (this is the pre-vet forum after all, animal abuse is not looked upon kindly), and the newt was able to escape attack from the really cool sword mostly…. It did leave it's tail behind. The villagers were so impressed with the sword's sharpness that they decided naming it after a really annoying company's spreadsheet was not appropriate, and instead renamed it "Excalibur", a really annoying hotel in Las Vegas.

We will leave our little newt friend to rehabilitate, and check out other happenings that happened to happen.

One poor besotten player was clunked in the head with a set of coconuts. No apparent permanent effects were noted, but as before, misery is a beyotch, and seems to like to inflict herself more than once on the same person… and our coconut plunked person was a bit woozy from the two coconuts, when they stumbled and fell down just as an unmilked cow was catapulted at them. Again, lucky for them, as they didn't not receive the full blunt of the cow's force, and was only injured. When waking up, this particular player stumbled off carrying those coconuts tightly, as they had been quite the good luck charm.

News of an explosion in another part of town was reported… One injury no deaths.

Onto more grave news (hahaha… grave is a funny word…. Double entrendre here….Yes, I am laughing at my own jokes while writing them. You have a problem with that? Feel free to send me a PM with your complaints, I am sure I have an appropriate solution). Yes, it was not all fun and games last night:

First, there was a serious attack. No one saw it coming. All we know is that Orcagirl had her neck virtually ripped out, but in a medical miracle, the carotid, the jugular, the vagus, and all the other key structures are still barely intact, and her heart is still beating. She has been moved to the Gorge of Eternal Peril where she lays, still able to talk, but can otherwise barely move.

Secondly, there was another serious attack. This one was definitely done by some kind of knight. People saw his figure walking off in the distance after the vicious attack. The knight left LIS dying, but not completely dead. In true comic book fashion blood was gushing out of multiple wounds, but in a long forgotten technique of science, his blood volume was maintained by copious ingesting of beer. A normal person could not withstand such a technique, but after years of vet school, LIS could survive quite a while with this technique. He too was dragged off to the Gorge of Eternal Peril , too busy drinking beer, and simultaneously gushing blood to play in any reindeer games for now.

Does this cover all of the events of the night? No freaking way. This crazy group was up to all sorts of shenanigans. Lets face it, alcohol and weapons and abilities all mixed together, along with some serious insults, and cryptic messages led to some unusual happenings, but that is for you all to figure out.

Someone has to pay for all this mayhem. Lynch us up a guilty party. Waste no time and get to it. Deadline is 7pmEST (yes, Samoa, EST), but I love early decisions.

Feel free to start PMing night actions as well. A few of you missed out last night and are on the clock to be subject to the Foxhunter rule and will be mod killed if it happens again!

Please note: Your groups may have changed. Be careful who you PM to (if you are allowed)...

Night results are concurrently being sent out. Patience. Mods are cranky on the first night results.

I don't like that someone made an attempt on my life, but at least that person didn't study their anatomy very much. 😛
 
I will go back to my last game, early round strategy and put forth the idea that we should lynch those people who have shown themselves in past games to be sneaky as crap wolves. Unless, of course, we hit paydirt on an investigation.

I don't know all of the pre-vets yet, the dirty sneaky wolves in my last game were our current mods, so . . . looking for some suggestions.
 
I wouldn't put it past either one if you to attack the other and then come in this thread betting that the other one got attacked.

Yea. But it was me. The PM came right as I posted. I have a long history of getting hit with every power night 1 (see sov s sdn parody game)
 
All night PMs have been responded to.
All items have been redistributed if necessary (and if any exist)...

If you think we have forgotten something, we don't really want to hear about it, but we probably should, so let us know.
 
:laugh: I have reason to believe that at least one wolf is a knight that says ni. I don't know who it is though.

Holy cow I love the nights who say "Ni."

Maybe it was someone who spoke of shrubberies early on?... SnS is there something you need to tell us? Haha.
 
So the wolves attacked but it didn't work? Interesting. Glad to still have all our villagers for the first day (for once).
 
Yea. But it was me. The PM came right as I posted. I have a long history of getting hit with every power night 1 (see sov s sdn parody game)

Wait, then why were you saying jdh was the one who got hit with everything? Is this one of those lounge dynamic things?
 
Interesting. Probably the only reason I'm still alive is because this is a pre-vet game.

Well. It has become industry standard. Samoa gets wolf killed first night and nutmeg gets the first lynch.

Though he took his ball and went home for another year.

Names people or strats or ideas about how to go about the first lynch RNG is stuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuupid. And Samoa is our resident game theory expert and she can tell you that randomly picking someone only works for the wolves.

Sooooooo . . . I will put it out there again. We should lynch someone who is known to play a good wolf. Sure we could lynch someone who has an important role, but I think that is clearly offset by the chance they are playing a wolf.
 
Can either of you in the Gorge of Eternal Peril speak while you're in there?

Juuuust wondering.

No, you misquote me. Failing to lynch someone, even a random player, is what benefits the wolves. But since it's counterintuitive, everyone always gets it backwards.

I would guess orca at least can, since the writeup says she's "still able to talk but otherwise can barely move."
