I might regret this, but add me in

Mollyb60 · 05-03-2019 9:43am

Sorry folks but I'm gonna have to pull out. I've family staying with me for the month and just don't have time in the evening's to devote to this.

kitten_k · 05-03-2019 10:27am

Sorry to hear that Molly

sKeith · 05-03-2019 6:02pm

Hopefully maintenance work in boards.ie datacenter won't cause any Sunday morning issues like it did for the Halloween game.

Pter arranged that maintenance, it's all part of the game mechanics we are creating!

Are we there yet?

Necro · 07-03-2019 11:07am

An early start or an OP would be...

Baggly · 07-03-2019 11:07am

Almost there

Mollyb60 · 07-03-2019 2:54pm

Oh can I get DR access please? Just in case I get on.

As this is a anonymous game, players may take 2nd glance at those claiming newbie.

Never be afraid to pm the mods, and cc them all. If somebody says 'sure, thats just WIFOM, first port of call for a newbie would be to google or pm to mods, what the hell is wifom.

Then again, as a real newbie, you would be telling the truth, so can play the newbie card with ease, as its truthful, so maybe not holding back is an effective strategy too, and will allow you to get the size of those saying you are just playing the newbie.

this might be the game where we have 20 newbies playing, that'd be lots of fun to try to pull off.

Mainly have fun and just roll with it. It'll probably seem weird the first time and players can get jargony with WW so, in the benefit of some friendly advice the following phrases mean:

FFA - select three players you think are the most wolfy within the group

ISO - to isolate and analyse another players posts

Munch - referred to as the morning kill

SK - pretty obvious but means they're talking about the serial killer if one is included in the game

Lynch - what we all vote on for the evenings, who you think is most wolfy.

Peek - this is an action by a player known as the seer where they get to learn a players role or alignment depending on the rule set.

I could go into the really nitty gritty stuff like TWTBAW (too wolfy to be a wolf) but don't want to confuse you folks too much.

You shot me in cold blood necro. Never forget.

Mollyb60 · 07-03-2019 5:53pm

Oh actually do you want me to be a mentor? *adopts superman pose*

Like I said I won't have time to play I don't think but I should be ok to help someone with questions.

Baggly · 07-03-2019 5:58pm

For new people, Necro once made up a claim that he had the role of the clock from countdown. He then posted in the persona of the clock for a night. It was not a good time.

Except me. I’m good and a newbie along with the other 19 players (thanks for ruining my game plan, Keith

)

A few more tips,
feel free to ask questions on any of this.

Seeing you have 65k+ posts, seems to suggest you post a lot elsewhere on boards.
On laptop for me, I use a different than my normal browser, usually in incognito/private mode for the anon account and playing the game.
A lot of the players just give up their norm accounts for the week, or for as long as they are alive in the game.

I find the above method the best for simultaneous playing an anon game and posting from my standard account.
Don't subscribe/follow the game thread with your standard account.

Thank the Lord I'm anon this time now :pac:

Which will last for... all of five mins probably.

I heard sKeith is running a pool on how long it'll take me to crack

quickbeam · 07-03-2019 6:02pm

Just get stuck in and enjoy yourselves. The worst that can happen is that you die but you then get to go to the deadroom where all the dead go to laugh at the ineptitude of the living.

You’ll likely be accused of being a Wolf at some point (whether you are one or not). It could be because you slipped up on something or it could be just someone ‘shaking the trees’ to see how you’ll react to being accused. Feel free do do your own ‘shaking’ if you feel so inclined.

07-03-2019 6:02pm

Or the mods can block your name from the forum.

Kolido · 08-03-2019 8:57am

Signups will close at midday followed by an important announcement.

I was full convinced that SK meant sKeith in the last game and then could not follow why people were accusing sKeith of being SK. TLAs are hard!

sKeith · 08-03-2019 12:41pm

Is there a reason you are holding back an important announcement?

If it's important, why are you not just sharing it already?

Its there a causal relationship between announcement and sign ups closure or why does it matter that the announcement follows signup closures, again falling back to, if its important, why hold back?

TL;DR It's been my experience to date, that delayed important announcements are usually not important at all, as if it was important, i'd know about it already.

Necro · 08-03-2019 12:43pm

Well I finally put some pants on. Just in time for the big announcement :P

fixXxer · 08-03-2019 1:04pm

FOUR MINUTES LATE

Kolido · 08-03-2019 1:25pm

Signups are now closed. Thanks to everyone who signed up.

The Mods would like to announce that this game will be a Midnight Launch.

PMs will go out tomorrow from 9pm and game will go live at midnight (Sunday 12:00am)

fixXxer · 08-03-2019 1:27pm

Midnight Launch. Love it. Been to a few of those in my time

Just to be sure, is this before or after Sunday? (Have I just eaten Saturday dinner or Sunday dinner?)

Necro · 08-03-2019 1:31pm

Nice! Drunk WW posting is fun, haven't done it in a while now

sKeith · 08-03-2019 1:33pm

Why do i eat dinner so late?

08-03-2019 1:48pm

Is that midnight Saturday night or midnight Sunday night? Thank feck the clocks not going forward this weekend.

What’s for dinner Keith?

Kolido · 08-03-2019 1:52pm

Game will start in approx 35 hours

Baggly · 08-03-2019 2:08pm

You will have eaten Saturday dinner.

What if I don't eat dinner on Saturday but compensate by eating two dinners on Sunday.

Have you thought of that scenario... the HORROR!

Colour me thick, but we were promised an important announcement.
Where is the important stuff?

kitten_k · 09-03-2019 11:17am

The important stuff is that the game is launching earlier than usual. We wanted people to be aware

Necro · 09-03-2019 11:19am
