    'Twas a long time ago, longer now than it seems, in a place that perhaps you've seen in your dreams. For the story that you are about to be told, took place in the holiday worlds of old. Now, you've probably wondered where holidays come from. If you haven't, I'd say it's time you begun.

    The villagers of Christmas and Halloween have come together this festive season to celebrate, be scared and / or be Merry. However, not everyone is happy about this coming together and certain elements of the gathering are looking to spoil the party! Christmas and Halloween villages must find the party poopers and exile them from the party, lest Christmas be ruined for everyone!

    This is Halloween

    This is Christmas

    Game Elements:
    • Have fun everyone!
    • It’s a NON-ANON game.
    • Don’t reveal any character you may or may not have.
    • Don’t mention or allude to any PMs you may nor may not have received.
    • Everyone has the option to send a letter to Santa. You don’t have to, but if you don’t, you definitely can’t get a present for Christmas if you dont send a letter! One submission per person, no backsies. Do not reveal your character in your letter, or it will not arrive. Do not mention or shared the content of your letter on thread. Letters can be sent via here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfYVDrPy4X4GHh0arTVH3xJ1Ozd-8stRi59qPx0LEH9bjENog/viewform
    • Voting will take place here: https://forms.gle/znRuCNHapmPXegJk8
    • Submit your vote between 10am and 9pm each day. You can revote as many times as you wish. A missed vote = a self vote that will escalate the more you don’t vote.
    • Someone must be selected to be exiled each day.
    • If you have access to a backroom, it will be on Discord. PM a mod to organise access. Do not speak about the backroom, getting access or anything to do with discord, on thread.
    • A variation of the below pm has been sent to players. There are two types of nrv - Halloween villager and Christmas villager.

    “Dear XXX

    Rules

    1. Respect the mods: The decisions of the mods are final. Mods will not enter into discussion or arguments on thread about mechanics of the game. There will be a time for review and discussion after the game is complete. If you have any questions, please PM all of the mods (Clarabel, Tusk & Baggly), and we will respond as soon as possible.

    2. Don't cheat: This is a game that relies heavily on the players having integrity. No PMing other players in the game, and no chat about the game outside of this game thread and designated back forum threads. Screen-shots, quoting from backroom threads or naming of rooms anyone may or may not have are NOT permitted. If you are unsure about what you want to say crosses the line, PM a mod.

    3. Be active: Please all try to reasonably contribute to the game thread with 5 posts being the minimum per day; and always remember to try to get a vote in. In the case of a tie vote, the last vote will carry the lynch. All players who are mod killed will be replaced if possible, but this decision will be made on a case by case basis. If you wish to be subbed, please PM the mods.

    4. Game schedule: The game thread will open on Monday the 16th of December. There will be no secret tasks in the game thread.

    5. Voting rules: The lynch form will be opened following the munch and players can vote until 08:59:59PM. You can change your vote as many times as you like, but only your last vote will count. Do not share your vote form password with anyone else. All votes for the lynch have to be made by yourself.

    6. Lynch rules: The votes will be published as soon as possible following the lynch in the order they were cast.

    7. Players are free to post in the thread until the lynch and eliminations are announced. You are not eliminated until a post in the game thread from the mods announces it. Once you are eliminated, please don't post in the game thread or in COP (outside of the deadroom) again. Eliminated players are also asked to not to thank any posts in the game thread after they have died. You will be granted access to the deadroom where you can discuss the game. Please PM a mod for access, although we will endeavor to have it arranged automatically upon your death.

    8. Policy on Abuse: Boards has a no-abuse rule in place that is in effect in this forum as well. By all means, call people on dodgy behaviour, point out if they are being silly or behaving strangely, be aggressive in your approach; but DO NOT abuse another player. If you feel another player has stepped over a line, the first step is to ask them to stop; if they do not, please PM a forum mod (Sullivlo/Baggly/Quickbeam) or use the report button on the post in question. Forum mods will investigate and action any issues at an appropriate time, keeping the game mods informed of any actions as needed.

    10. Win Conditions: Village wins if all party poopers are exiled. Party poopers win if number of party poopers equals number of villagers.

    11. Have fun guys, we encourage fun poking, memes, gifs, videos and such and such.

    Not a rule but important for our community. We have new players perhaps watching this game, so please make them feel welcome in the forum by behaving respectfully with your fellow players. If anyone new is reading this, we have a glossary of terms and acronyms, as well as this beginner’s guide, which is available to all within the werewolf sub forum.

    In reality your lack of activity equals ~100 posts per day so!

    Feck all really in the OP so maybe it's actually vanilla-ish

    Seems to be straight up wolves vs villagers alright, though the Santa letter is interesting. Probably not much to be divulged by discussing it at length either tbh

    So no point asking for Jason Momoa, asking for a friend

    Probably won't be as active as usual myself this game... that said I've said that before recently and seem to post more and more each game.

    and yeah don't trust the postal service - Sent two cards from the same location to the same location on the same date but addressed to different people, 1 arrived last week the other ???

    Hope they fix that Santa's letter thing, prepping mine now

    Not really. Based on the win cons they're all villagers. Might be linked to Santa perhaps??

    I don't think so fixxxy, mainly cos of the win cons:
    10. Win Conditions: Village wins if all party poopers are exiled. Party poopers win if number of party poopers equals number of villagers.

    There's no Christmas/Halloween village win con. Probably designed that way as per the movie and also to sew some discontent amongst us goodies.

    Village be village

    Evening guys

    This year from Santa I would like a BIG tunnel with Necro inside

    Only joking Necro, I promise not to tunnel you this time

    Some exceptionally wolfie opening posts, someone came in as Dracula, has to be evil. And whoever said die hard is a Christmas movie, they’re obviously a wolf

    So that’s a good start
