Slow burner vanilla-esque game - SIGN UP THREAD

    Myself and Necro will be running a slow burner, low commitment vanilla-esque game, which we hope to start soon.

    There will be longer day / night periods, maximum posting limits and very little commitment required. We will use another forum (not COP) to run the backroom, so it can be run in conjunction with any other games that happen to span the time.

    No final game mechanics finalised as of yet, just gauging interest.


    Sign ups (as of 10th April):
    1. Kolido
    2. Duffman13
    3. Strawberry Milkshake
    4. Pter
    5. sKeith

    I’ll give it a go.

    What’s the user interface like on the other site for phone users?

    Is this Pter style vanilla-esque or more of a standard vanilla-esque?
    Why am I even asking questions?
    First road to recovery is to admit your failing.
    I'm an addict.

    Just hook it to my veins please.


    Tl:Dr I'm INterested.

    I count that as 13 sign ups so far:

    Kolido
    Duffman13
    Strawberry Milkshake
    Pter
    sKeith
    Triceratops Ballet
    tusk
    quickbeam
    Barney92
    kitten_k
    Digital Solitude
    Bounty Hunter
    fixxxer

    Few more and we might announce a few details :) This might suit people who find it difficult to commit to the typical week long boards games, as sully says the days and nights will be a good bit longer, and nights might even be closed (helps having a forum mod on the game mod team :P ).

    So it will be low effort and probably low volume. If you want to give WW a go, but can't commit to the higher volume games, this is one for you!

    Anon or non-anon or TBD? Not that it changes my answer, just curious.

    Vanilla. Basic roles. Longer day periods.

    Time depends on how many players there are and how the wolves perform... maybe 2 weeks? I can’t answer that.

    Be nice or I'll fire an arrow at you. Or who I think is you but is actually the main character on my team.

    Okay. Some more details.

    It will have a very soft launch. It will launch on the Friday of the May bank holiday weekend, and the first munch will be the Tuesday morning.

    Day phases will be 36 hours. Night phases will be 12 hours.

    The thread will be closed during the night phase.

    The theme (for pure flavour as much as anything) is silence of the lambs.

    It will be non-anon.

    There will be a maximum post count per poster per phase, so it will really be a low committment kinda game.

    More info as we get it.
