I had such a good time playing in SOV's speed game that I wanted to mod one myself. The rules will pretty much be the same as SOV's game with a few changes. Oh, and I'm not saying how many wolves there are and if they get a conversion or not.

SPEED WW - RULES:

Rules:
1)Nights are 15 minutes.
a) wolves: The first PM I receive from a wolf is the one I go with. Any PMs after that are ignored.
b) seer: 1 seer. Must tell me who they are investigating in 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, no results will be given.
c) angel: 1 angel. Can protect 1 person a round. Must receive who they are protecting in 10 minutes, otherwise no protection will be given.
2)Days are a maximum of 45 minutes, usually much less. Once a plurality is reached in a vote, voting is over.
a) Mayor: can veto once. Must be done within 5 minutes of vote ending. Should always say veto or no veto, so I can proceed with game ASAP.
3)NO PMs for anyone (except for night activities and wolves) That takes too much time, have something to say, say it on the thread.
4)There will be breaks for moderators life as necessary.
5)Only 12 players. No exceptions.
6) Repeat: No PM-ing.
7) No elaborate write-ups. This is a no-frills game. And nothing is going on behind the scenes to be explained.
8) No editing. If I see you edit, you will be killed on the spot whether you are a wolf or villager.

We will begin at 2pm CST. Roles will be sent out at that time and mayor voting will commence.

Gotta pass on this one, work until 4 EST tomorrow. Plus I think I have high blood pressure now after that last speed game😀

I know what you mean about the blood pressure. I was so nervous through the whole thing, even after I died! I don't think I am going to be able to play in the Jurassic Park one so this will have to tie me over. If people want to play later in the day, we could do that, too. I just picked a time that sounded good.
 
2 PM CST tomorrow Sunday, right? Wonderful study break! Now I just can't let daylight savings mess up my timing.

no PMs but wolves can PM each other, correct? want to make sure I'm understanding this.
 
The time is good for me! With the time difference I am 6 hours ahead right now, might be 5 hours if you guys spring forward tonight.
 
Aw, damn... Speed games? The one SOV modded today looks like it was a blast! Such a shame that I have a presentation to write AND it's the end of March Madness (Mizzou just took the Big 12 home!). There's just no way I can join this and actually get the presentation finished. Bummer. Enjoy, all!!!!
 
I'm gonna wait for the full length game, but will probably watch this one trying to guess who the wolves are 🙂.
 
I'm in. I have work all day= tied to computer with nothing to do. I will be there for the WHOLE game. I promise.

With only half the spots filled, I am going to bed. I will keep sign up going until 2pm CST. If no one else wants to play, I will cancel the game. Hope I wake up tomorrow to new players! Don't forget Daylight Saving Time!
 
Not sure I'm gonna play, as I think playing the last speed game resulted in a migraine! :laugh: It could have just been having to play as a wolf. Lying stresses me out! 😛

If I don't play, I totally volunteer to watch & keep the vote tallies if you want, Lissa! SOV said it was helpful when Squirrels did that.
 
Not sure I will be home in time - have a field hockey game this evening. If I get back and spots are available and you haven't started, I will play 😀
 
I may be stuck at a hockey game around the time the game is starting. So if that's the case and there are spots left I might join. It's not so fun watchin when the only thing I get is icing.

Guess I'll signup 🙂. Didn't want to take a spot away from someone who really loved playing the short version, since I like the long version of WW better, but looks like you're in need of more people, so I'm in.
 
I am most likely going to be outside enjoying the sun with my doggies, but I guess I can use the phone to play (somehow bring my tablet along seems lame)...

ps - props to devyn who has signed up for a WW game in the lounge. It is going to be a very hard game apparently.
 
I just signed up in the lounge too. Won't last long probably, but should be fun 🙂.

Yeah I think I am officially hooked :laugh: I figured why not try a lounge game - I am sure it will be much more complex than our games, but I enjoy problem solving. I am sure being a newb they will off be pretty quickly anyhow - unless I am lucky!

You guys are brave! Just a warning, they take things pretty serious over there. Don't be offended if people cuss at you or get mad. Also, try not to switch votes too much over there. You will be fine and have fun! jdh is a creative mod so I'm sure he will have plenty of tricks up his sleeve.

Or maybe they will keep us noob's around just because they can pick us off easily at the end..🙄
 
If we need peeps, I'll play 🙂
 
Regarding the lounge game...

My first game, they wanted to lynch me the first day. Expect that one of you will be a prime candidate. Since you will all have a role, pick someone to trust, and try to get them on your side if your name comes up. I did that (it was DocEspana), and he championed me through the first round.

After the first round there is much more strategy so the lynch the noob cry tends to get muted a bit.

So hang in there. And with three of you, the odds are even better.

Anyway, that was my experience.

But as Lissa said, have a thick skin. They pretty much hate me over there. I have been abused to some degree every game. Don't take it personally.

Thanks for the hints SOV and Lissa!

I have some really thick skin so I am not too worried.
 
Hmm, the lounge game looks fun, but it's 3wks from now I think? I can't plan that far out yet, and am def a n006...
I'm BORED
This game better not get cancelled!

I hope it doesn't.. I need something to do.

By the way, when I first saw your avatar I thought it was a picture of Barney... I was like :eyebrow:
 
Peer pressure! Peer pressure!

I hope my netbook decides to behave today...I'm defragging it and updating files right now to avoid the issues I was having during the last speed game. I do NOT recommend playing a Speed WW game on your phone! :laugh:
