Werewolf game!

    Anyone up for a game of werewolf its simple enough and can be hilarious with infighting and acquisitions when the game progresses, would need at least 20 active poster to start the game so let me know

    The Rules


    At the beginning of the game each player is given a 'role' at random and in secret by myself, the moderator, via PM. Those roles are Villager (good) and Werewolf (evil).

    The villagers will greatly outnumber the werewolves — in a 21 player game for example there will only be 3 werewolves — and the aim of the villagers is to identify and kill all the werewolves before the werewolves can kill enough villagers so that (#of wolves = #of villagers).


    How are players killed?
    Each 'turn' of the game will last 24hrs and also represents one 'day' of gametime, thus a game will go on for several days before it is concluded. There are two 'phases' to every turn of the game;

    Night Phase - 10pm to 10am: When the werewolves secretly decide amongst themselves, via PM communication, which villager (one per night) that they shall slaughter and kill and then each inform the moderator of their vote via PM.

    Day Phase - 10am to 10pm: After the slaughter has been announced, everybody, villagers and werewolves alike, discusses and ultimately votes publicly in the game-thread upon which player (one per day) that they shall lynch and kill.

    Obviously during the day the villagers will want the group to vote for and lynch a werewolf, whilst the werewolves themselves will want not to be lynched; herein lies the fundamental strategy of the game; can the villagers identify the werewolves whilst at the same time convincing the rest of the group that they're not themselves a werewolf? And can the werewolves convince the group that they're not wolves at all and thus avoid being lynched?


    Special Roles
    To help the villagers out in their decision, some of them will be given special roles, there will be one of each per game. These roles are as follows:

    Seer: the seer has the ability to PM the moderator once per turn and ask him 'Is X a werewolf?' to which the moderator will answer truthfully yes or no.

    Priest: the priest will learn the roles of any players killed in the game.

    Witness: the witness selects another player (has to be different each turn) to follow, if that player is killed during the night then the witness learns the identity of one of the werewolves. If the witness selects a werewolf then he/she learns nothing, because werewolves are too crafty to be followed, and if he ever does witness a killing then he becomes, for the remainder of the game, a normal villager.

    Players given these roles can announce them to the group if so desired, as can any player announce anything to the group really (in a game of Werewolf lying and deception is encouraged), but beware, doing so would likely make you a prime target for slaughter.

    i am not going to lie. it sounds shit. sorry.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    Why only villagers?

    Surely there's a place for a rakish, handsome, young aristocrat from the big house who has his way the villagewomen as and when he pleases?

    Oh, and because he's a Lord he doesn't have to play the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,351 ✭✭✭Orando Broom


    If I was a villager could I not absolutely kick the ****e out of some pussy-ass half a dog?

    Sounds like a bit of a scam.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    I don't know how well this will work in a public forum.. Particularly this one. Noc forum might be a good place for it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    ANOTHER SPECIAL ROLE:

    Boardsie:

    Once a night, can blast a random villager with piss. If the villager drowns then they're human, but if they survive they're a werewolf.

    Once a turn can also cast begrudgery. This allows them to accuse anyone they don't like or are jealous of of being a werewolf. The werewolf has to admit it if they are a werewolf.

    Can i also be your love interest? some kinda fight would ensue with you and the werewolf regarding my honour.

    The game is now called Paedophile
    .....Obviously during the day the villagers will want the group to vote for and lynch a Paedophile, whilst the Paedophiles themselves will want not to be lynched; herein lies the fundamental strategy of the game; can the villagers identify the Paedophiles whilst at the same time convincing the rest of the group that they're not themselves a Paedophile? And can the Paedophiles convince the group that they're not Paedophiles at all and thus avoid being lynched?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 833 ✭✭✭barbarians


    A tad confusing but I'm sure all will be cleared up.

    Throw my name down anyway I suppose.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,161 ✭✭✭frag420


    How about we get the Villagers(band) and throw them to Werewolves??

    Now thats a game I would play.

    QED really.

    Why I insist upon it. It would have to involve me swinging on a rope across my great hall with you in my arms gazing lovingly at me as I kick the werewolf out the window or something.

    In fact, forget the villagers.

    The only thing is I find big hairy werewolf type men maddingly attractive. Could you have got bitten during your battle and ravage me on the full moon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,182 ✭✭✭Genghiz Cohen


    I'll play, but only if the game is renamed and rethemed to Peadophiles.
    1 child gets buggered per night, and so on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,004 ✭✭✭jimthemental


    Is this another thread about that story in Patrickswell?

    Good idea, we'll save that for the twist at the end as we embrace, and my hands suddenly sprout coarse hair and I flash a devilish (well, more devilish than usual) grin. Fade to black.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,789 ✭✭✭BEASTERLY


    Ill play, i think it would be hilarious if you rethemed it to pedos instead though:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,221 ✭✭✭BluesBerry


    Can I play ...Ill be Helen Lovejoy

    Wont someone think of the children


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,228 ✭✭✭podgemonster


    Perhaps this game is not what it seems and is a study into human paranoia and bloodlust. The spark is a little white lie, WEREWOLVES!!! but there are NO werewolves yet people convinced that there are werewolves amoung then turn on their fellow villagers and lynch them!

    Eventually realising that in their madness they have murders their fellow brother and sisters and their village now consists of empty houses, burnt corpses, bloody streets and fresh graves.

    The horrorifying realisation will dawn on the surviving villagers that it is MAN that is the monster and not the werewolves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,373 ✭✭✭The guy


    This basically Mafia, let's just call it mafia instead.

    I know its against the ethos of AH and its "I've got a downright hilarious comment to share with the world" attitude, but maybe give the OP a chance and only reply if you want to participate in the game.

    Let him get his 20 contestants together and get the game going.

    So it will take weeks to find the werewolves, and if you are the first killed you do nothing all that time ?
