    Whatever about the beers, I'm absolutely planning my trip home based on the outcome of this poll

    25th Feb
    The 18th was my preference because ;

    A) it's sooner

    AND

    B) I'm off work from Monday/Thursday that week.

    (Odds on a n0 Necro kill if it's on the 18th now just took a massive hit)

    Oh, and I'm a villager obviously :D


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    The majority could vote for and extension and the ones that voted for speed day could be all that’s left come munch on Thursday night haha.

    I’d like anon please

    I mis-voted. I did not read the question fully before completing my answer.

    I meant to vote 25th as I'm away the week before

    Heya whoops! Welcome on board. It's great fun.

    I did up a faq for new people I'll dig it out for you.

    In it's most basic terms, it's a post based game where there is a bad team (wolves) amongst the players. It is up to the good players (villagers) to try and work out who the bad team is based on how they post.

    There are certain roles within the game to aid the good team:

    Seer: a player that can request (peek) the role/alignment of a player each night.

    Priest: learns roles of all dead players.

    Not getting too much into it, there are other roles as outlined in the link above and pter's document.

    Basically the bad players get to kill (munch) a player each night until they reach parity with the village.

    To counteract this the village votes to kill (lynch) a player each day to wipe out the baddies.
    It's fun, it's frantic, it's a bit of craic.

    There's loads of other roles etc but that is essentially a basic (vanilla) game of Werewolf.

    Just for the lads,

    No preference on anon/non anon.

    Rolling it over the weekend is fine by me, but I don't mind speed days either.

    Probably not the most helpful :)

    2) I need more time to think about this one too.
    3) ANON all the way.

    Can we use voting options?

    So, instead of me voting in 1 or 2, i can use those votes to weigh in on the only question i have a care for, so give up voting options in 1) and 2) and get 3 votes in 3) all for ANON ??

    Or it that just mad?

    I accidentally set it to black and that was hard to read, so I set it to white because I couldn't find the default

    I'm used to using mobile and the dark theme on desktop so I didn't realise there was a problem

    Is it hard to see on desktop?

    Until QB highlighted the fact that there was text there, i didn't know.

    Hard to see would be an understatement, text was invisible.

    I'm in too. I'd prefer the 18th, but could probably make the 25th anyway.

    I'd rather speed days than to wait.

    Anon v non-anon. I'd rather non, but not too pushed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,397 ✭✭✭✭Digital Solitude

    That just made me think of an idea for a game . . "The presidents of the United states". All republican presidents would obviously be the villians and the Democrats could be the goodies .... Trump would obviously be the village idiot that just causes Mahem and confusion. .

    You playing this one Drumpot? I'd be looking forward to eat... I mean playing alongside you :pac:

    (Also have a look at D&D and get involved if it's something that might interest you :) )


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,788 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    In in in!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,428 ✭✭✭MrKingsley


    Definitely in for this. Have only going for the 18th so it starts sooner!

    Would be in favour of slowing the game down as well instead of speed days.

    And would prefer non-anon

    Yeh , I probably will play, just so I can be the lamb to your wolf! I’ve never actually been a wolf!!!. Don’t think either date is an issue.

    I just always wait until closer to the time before committing in case Im not in a good headspace to purposefully play a game that can drive me mad and get me in trouble with the wife... She always knows when I’m playing it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,666 ✭✭✭tritium


    Guess I’m in...... bet no one saw that coming :)

    Either day works for me, with a slight pref for 18th

    Preference for speed days and anon accounts
