Oceans 11 Werewolf Game Thread

    Hi Everyone

    Welcome to the Game thread for the Oceans 11 Werewolf Game. A werewolf game based on the 2001 movie Oceans 11. Before we get started some ground rules :D

    General Game 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. The mods have some secrets, but all players have been provided with the information they need to play the game. If you have any questions, please PM Rikand and I 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. No posting of any PMs from the game mod or referring to the content of them. No screen-shots, quoting from backroom threads or naming of rooms anyone may or may not have are permitted.

    3. Game schedule and voting rules: The game begins as soon as the mods say IT IS DAY, with lynch thread opened immediately thereafter. Note that voting is live and will be conducted in the separate Oceans 11 WW lynching thread. Lynches take place at 9pm, Munches will take place somewhere between 8 and 10AM (depending on work for the game mods). All Night Actions are due by 8am every morning. The first lynch is Monday at 9pm.

    To vote, please state clearly on the designated thread with the format '##Vote XXXX' - where XXXX is your chosen party to vote for in that lynch. The format is very important as I am using a vote counter application and the format needs to be written like that to count. Vote counts will also be posted periodically on the game thread, from the lynching thread. You may vote as many times as you like but only your last vote will count.



    There will always be the option for players to vote for 'No Lynch'.
    Game mods also wish to inform players that there is a 5 post minimum requirement per cycle, which will begin from Monday morning at 10am.


    There will be no missed votes in this game. Failure to enter a valid vote by the deadline will result in a penalty vote against yourself in that lynch. Failure to meet the posting requirements in a cycle will also result in the same punishment, a penalty vote against yourself in the next lynch. This will increase incrementally as follows:
    1 missed vote OR missed posting requirements = 1 self vote
    2 missed votes OR missed posting requirements = 2 self votes
    3 missed votes OR missed posting requirements = 4 self votes
    4 missed votes OR missed posting requirements = 8 self votes
    etc.

    4. Lynch rules: The votes WILL be published in this game, the data is also available in the lynch thread for players to analyse and interpret freely.

    In the event of a tied vote: the lynch will be resolved by the game mod using the post sequence number method as trialed in the Silent Hill WW game

    5. Are you dead? People are free to post in the thread until kills are announced or until I ask you to stop posting. You are not officially dead until a post in the game thread announces it. Once you are dead, please don't post in the game thread again. Dead players are also asked to NOT THANK POSTS IN THE GAME THREAD AFTER DEATH. You will be granted access to the dead room where you can discuss the game.

    6. 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.

    7. Stay in the game world: This game takes place in Las Vegas. Immerse yourself in the world of Oceans 11 and try to forget about everything going on in the outside world. Everyone has received a character name, but you are not allowed to claim that name at any point in the game. I'll elaborate on this in the next post.

    Win Conditions:

    The wolves will win when they can no longer be mathematically beaten. The village will win when they have eliminated all the wolves. There is no neutral faction in this game. You either count for wolf or villager parity.


    Everyone is being given an anon account to play from. If you dont want to use your given anon account and instead prefer to post from your normal boards.ie account, let me know by PM

    Character Claiming

    A separate post for this as its very important people dont break this rule. You are not allowed to claim your character in this game. Doing so will result in a modkill.

    I like people to have to play werewolf to try and solve the game. Mass character claims are a big no-no in my book.

    For example, if this game was based on the team manchester united. It would be okay to say :: I wonder if Roy Keane is in this game. That is such a Roy Keane type of thing to do. Isnt Roy Keane a total arsehole!

    It would not be okay to say. I'm Roy Keane. I'm the guy who broke Alf inge Haalands leg. I'm the one who screwed Ireland in Saipan.

    You get the picture ? ;) Dont claim your character name. Dont claim something that makes it obvious which character you are.

    You can claim any role you want though. As its technically possible that anyone could have any kind of role. There's a good few different roles and abilities in this game. Everyone has a power of some sort. Some powers are better than others. Not all powers are created equally. :)

    IT IS STILL NIGHT. DO NOT POST

    Due to a technical issue, the game wont be going live until later this afternoon. My sincere apologies for the inconvenience this may cause :)

    Danny had the whole heist planned out, but he was going to need to convince Rusty. After pouring over the plans, they talked about the team they'd need. They formed their team and organised everything to be talked about in Reubens place.

    The following were there :: Danny, Rusty, Reuben, Frank, Linus, Livingston, Yen, Basher, Saul and the two Malloys. Robbing Terry Benedict was not going to be easy. They'd have to negotiate his casino manager as well his assorted other hired help. And there may be some surprises along the way. Danny had his friend Bruiser that may help. Denny Shields was a big money player who knew everything and Tess..... what part would she have to play in this before the end....



    Setting up for the heist begins now!

    First order of business, Reconnaissance.

    IT IS DAY!

    Hello all


    So no SK team

    Looks like 11 good guys, 5 wolves and maybe Tess can be recruited/converted to team village or team wolf?

    This 'checking in' business looks very tasky, but what are the odds of three wolves doing it straight after each other? Could they be this cheeky and blatant?

    Holly throwing shade at Fiona looks very dodgy for Holly. But, could it be an early distancing attempt by team mates?

    The 'LAY' of the land. Interesting that you balls up a pretty normal saying.

    Catch someone in a lie, catch a wolf.

    It’s 1 v 1 poker.

    We can just make a bigger game though if you’d be feeling left out Fiona?

    Evening all. Is the casino always this quiet on a Sunday?

    No posts in 3 hours? I suppose this will be a quiet game so.

    Seems we are not allowed to officially register our votes in the voting thread yet either, but I'd like to make my intention of voting Holly as soon as the thread allows me to do so very clear.


  • Forum Games Player Posts: 2,893 ✭✭✭Clodagh WW


    It looks like I am the only one here at the moment. :(

    Ah well,

    at least I can keep myself entertained. Keep the frequency clear and get down to the funky beat.....

    Sunday evening start, never a flurry of activity really. I woke up feeling like I lost a lot of money in the casino last night, happy miserable Monday

    What's your logic for Holly?


  • Forum Games Player Posts: 2,790 ✭✭✭Abigail WW


    Morning all.
    @Clodagh - same question, why Holly?


  • Forum Games Player Posts: 3,061 ✭✭✭Holly WW


    Good morning everyone. Nice to see I’m so popular. Even though there are two players who intend voting me at this early early stage, I’d be inclined to put them into my village lean pile.

    Wolves don’t need to draw attention to themselves by jumping on a villager so early into the game

    Morning all.

    Clodagh I’ll be asking the same question as the others. Why Holly?

    And holly that is very understanding on your behalf. Whilst I agree with your logic I wont be ruling out the possibility of a Long game wolf ruse between the pair of you. I don’t think this is the case by the way but will not completely ignore it


  • Forum Games Player Posts: 2,749 ✭✭✭Frank WW


    Time to have a look around here I suppose. Morning villagers. **** you, wolves.
