I love the themed games idea. I would be up for helping host a themed halloween one, similar to the necromancer rules posted earlier. For the craic like!

Tigger. Tigger tigger tigger. Where to start? :P I would have no problem playing with Trigger again. As said here earlier, everyone deserves a second chance. I can see why he lost his temper, but having been in the dead room at the time, I can also see the mods point of view. I really don't blame Tigger for losing the head, however I do think that the way he lost it (posting of the Seer chat etc) was inexcusable. The mods (and the players) both put a lot of time and effort in the game and, as I see it, that was an attempt to ruin it for everyone which was not fair. It's not up to me, but if it was here's what I propose: Tigger to PM the two mods with a sincere apology (if not done already), Tigger to get access to the dead room (which I believe no-one is reading anymore anyway), everyone to then let this go (that includes Tigger - no more discussion of the topic or arguing about what actions should or shouldn't have happened), everyone to give Trigger a second chance and, finally, Tigger to promise that future issues will be handled in a way that doesn't threaten the game. To be fair, that last part applies to everyone but some people may still need to hear it from Tigger.

That's all just my opinion, I will defer to the mods and other players. I am really enjoying this game, and would like everyone else to enjoy it too. Boards can be a cliquey place at times, and I defo would want to avoid the newly approved WW forum becoming like that.

Jayop has been consistently shite about giving people dead room access. :P Persepoly, Quickbeam, Shatter, I have given you access.

First off, the mods do a great job in keeping these games running. On top of that they also add entertainment value with lynch/slaughter postings.

The last two games have been accelerated towards the end to prevent the game from getting slow and possibly boring which could lead to lack of interest from some players. Another example of the great work the mods do.

Maybe making the game quicker after a certain point (x number of players dead) could be defined at the start of the game. It does get to a point where players are going around in circles followed by a decrease in live players which leads to a drop in posting activity.

That's just my 2c as a tweak which may keep the activity level at a maximum throughout the whole game.

crosstownk · 01-10-2016 9:43pm

Max, can you sort out the dead room access for me, please?

Considering our forum has been approved and it can't go live until a charter is created, maybe we should put a draft charter together for the mods

The first rule of warewolf dont talk about warewolf unless you are lying and being generally decitefull
Rule number 2 shatterproof must be lynched/munched as soon as possible (would have been a few yellows this game)
Rule 3 no more then 2 memes per each day

Thats all i have so far

Tigger · 02-10-2016 6:26pm

C. No spell g tasks
5. No systems
6. No super vote thing

mahamageehad · 02-10-2016 7:46pm

Depending on whether I'm team village or team baddie next game, Andy and Mick are now top of my munch/lynch list. :P Mick is just too useful and Andy is too devious! :P:pac:

I was think more about the Harry Potter themed game someone (Sulli?) suggested, it's a great idea. You could have a good team - Harry, Ron and Hermione. Mad eye moody as the seer, Hagrid as the bodyguard. Death eaters as the baddies. Maybe a Voldemort bad guy role like the Night King where he has killing power but can't communicate with the death eaters until a certain time. Snape could be a turncoat after a certain amount of time. You could even have a Dementor type role that silences a certain person for a half day. Professor Trelawney as the priest. Loads of options there!

Anyways, just thinking out loud!

ShatterProof · 02-10-2016 8:42pm

LOVE this idea! I'm 100% in for WW4 anyway. Regardless of what it is.

I will say that I thought that the difference in difficulty level between WW2 and WW3 was quite big. I would've been confused as hell had I actually been playing. So could we maybe take it easy with the new rules next time!

quickbeam · 03-10-2016 2:48pm

Every time I've read new rules to each game, I've thought - No way, this'll be impossible!! But once you actually get in to playing it, it does all sort of start to make sense.

I actually thought WW2 was the most difficult in terms of rules - I never could get my head around that Powerplay.

This is the suggested vote order for the system. If you can work out whn youre duebto post and let me know uf you cant

tritium wrote: »

So the wolves have 9 and we need to keep the hour system going (make it every 50 mins as im cureently having a beer and my math may be a little off) with everyone then voting at or after 8.01

I need to also work out how this should play tomorrow. I think the system works but need to runnit through

tritium wrote: »

I suggest in the absence of powerplay evidence every villager votes jayop between 8.01 and 9.59 tonight. Thats the latest pp window. If wolves drop votes before that we react accordingly. Worst scenario we should try to get a small number of votes into the pp.

Am i missing anything?

tritium wrote: »

Actualky **** that

jayop

We now have plus 2 on any pp vote up to an hour from now. In an hour another villager votes jayop and so on each hour. That puts us between 2 and 4 for any pp period. Everyone then has to vote jayop after 8.01

tritium wrote: »

Look, vased on gms post.

Wwgm can you confirm; in a game you only ever have one vote. With pp that may count as +2 not +1

If so if we villagers vote together we cant be outvoted. Im suggesting jayop because hes dangerous to have around

Any objections?

Don't mention the fecking PP!! We'll have Tritium in here trying to explain it to us!!

Anyway, thanks a million everyone for playing the game, that's the first time I think we've not had a modkill so that's brilliant.

Cheers to Digi for running the tail end of the game all by himself after I went missing. I had a mate down from home from Friday to last night and I was pretty much constantly on the beer all weekend so everytime I logged on to try to help out somewhere I couldn't get my head around what was going on.Sorry about that, but you did a great job by my reading back.

Also a big thanks to Max for setting up the back forum and getting the forums all prepared for the game with me. Also did a lot of the changing access over the week which was a great help.

I'll likely not be able to be involved in at least the next game properly because I'm really busy at work at the moment and I'll probably be on hols when the next one is on, but I'll give whoever runs it all my help in setting up the forum and with balancing the game if they'd like.

Jayop · 03-10-2016 3:20pm

Oh, also I think once we get our new forum we should start to do things like have a single thread outlining all the roles and rules we've had in previous games, how well they worked and how we'd tweek them for future games. Things like the Sheriff in this game didn't really have much impact that I saw, but could have been important in the end.

I also agree with one of the posts I read about having a mechanism in the games whereby once we get to a certain amount of people left alive we should speed the game up. That makes it a bit harder for future mods as they'll have 4 actions per day rather than 2 to manage but would improve the feel of the games I think. If we start on a sunday night, most games should wrap up on the following Friday if possible as the weekends are a nigthmare and you tend to have people like me going AWOL.

quickbeam · 03-10-2016 3:33pm

Okay, so if we need to come up with a charter, can we just adapt the one already in this forum. Something like this......

The RPG Arena (or whatever our new forum is called)

Mission Statement:

This is a place for playing and discussing RPGs. Please give this short list of rules a read and then thank this post to show that you have done so, and are happy to abide by them.

The Rules:
There should be no spam, trolling or any general muppetry. (Any of this will result in posts being edited/deleted).

By the nature of the game, some insulting will take place, so don’t be a sensitive soul. Expect reasonable bad language and people trying to provoke reactions out of each other. This is just part of the game. However, any serious abuse or racism will not be tolerated. Heed any warnings given by the forum moderators and if things get out of hand, offenders will be banned.

Only active players and game moderators of a game are permitted to post or thank a post, in a thread while game is in play.

Any repeat offenders of these rules, will result in them being banned.

Not reading the charter will make us come down harder on you if you break the rules.

All the usual Boards.ie rules also apply.

Dispute Resolution:
If you feel you have been banned/infracted unfairly and are unable to settle the dispute with a mod via pm, the correct procedure is to then start a thread in the Dispute Resolution Forum. From there, you will have an impartial higher authority input on the problem & it can be dealt with properly.

Jayop · 03-10-2016 3:36pm

I think from reading the rules in the forum request place they'll approach someone involved to become a mod, then they along with the cat mods and admins will come up with the charter.

Not sure who they'll go to with the mod duties. Sully would be the obvious choice if she's open to it. Will they have a single mod or more?

quickbeam · 03-10-2016 3:36pm

quickbeam wrote: »

while game is in play.

I wonder will the forum mod be able to put something against a thread to show a game that's active - a bit like the forum request forum, where threads are marked "New" or "Approved" or "Expired" - we could have "Active" or "Complete" against games that are in play?

Do you think they could up the WerewolfGM account to a mod account? that way it can be used and obvious when the mod is posting? We had that over in the poker forum. But the Mod abilities only worked in that particular forum so they couldn't abuse privileges.
