Roles are sent, game starts at noon officially, if you want to start posting now, well you go right ahead. First midnight is Tuesday, days are 24 hours each day after.


The shelter of the village inn. Rumors of attacks on the road have caused much of these to close. Rumors also have it that the Baron does not believe in werewolves, so this one on his land is the only one for miles. Just a small village on the edge of his lands with an inn that seems too large for it otherwise. Those who are brave enough to travel, are staying here, as this includes the traders and merchants the Baron is slowly growing richer. Unfortunately it also seems to include the werewolves, whatever small village they where hunting in, they must have taken it out.

Dawn, a new day, and the body of one traveler found horribly torn in his room. Everybody else fled, fled and barricaded the doors from the outside. Windows too. Trapping those who did not flee inside. Eleven players. Small silver lining though, if you can survive long enough the kings guard will come to straiten things out.
Rules:

1. Nightfall. Midnight EST. If you have a power, it has to be sent by then. I'll have results up as soon after midnight as I can.
2. Powers. Do send a list. A list of 3 candidates for your power to be used on should be sufficient.
3. Votes. Bold them. You don't need to nominate, you don't need to second, and even if you are accused you can vote. The person with the most valid votes at midnight gets lynched. Ties, I'll use a RNG.
4. Abstaining. You may not abstain from voting. You may vote for none. None my only be lynched once per game. If you have not voted, you are killed by fiat of GM. If your team has a substitute lined up, I might give them your role.
5. On death you will have your role displayed.
6. You may converse with anybody you want. You may not quote a conversation (PM) into the thread, nither ones with other players, nor ones from the GM.
7. If you are not alive, and playing, don't post.

Well this sucks, why would those jerks barricade us inside! I hope whatever did it stayed outside with them...

In the frenzied panic of people running into doors and barricading rooms---or was it the other way around?---only one thing matters to me: my especially large tankard of the Baron's fifteenth-best ale, watered-down to nineteenth-best. Grudgingly forced to move when one screaming patron or another comes too close to my tranquil haven of inebriated bliss, I protect my tankard with the grace of a dancer, keeping it aloft and deftly balanced while the rest of you fools keep shaking my table---for no. reason. whatsoever. Honestly, one dismembered corpse isn't enough to damage my calm, what's wrong with yours?

Finally, things die down (oh, sorry---too soon?). I take a long gulp from my tankard, finishing it off.

"Hey! Anyone still work here? I've got a drinking problem." I rap my empty mug on the table a few times for emphasis.

Since we have only ten hours to cast a vote or we're killed by a falling chandelier, we should probably get everyone talking. Come on, silence isn't a strategy, it's a wolf-friendly smokescreen that only hurts the villagers. You can be silent when you're dead---and that can be arranged.

I vote to lynch Eunomiac. Why would he want to make people talk and try to get them to accidentally reveal things about themselves?

I would like to reveal the fact that I have nothing to accidentally reveal about myself.

While Peggle certainly makes a good arguement (not really...), I am curious why he would just randomly vote for someone so quickly...unless of course he might be a hidden monster in disguise and doesn't care who he takes down first?

Really? Opening with a locked-in lynch vote before giving me a chance to answer your question? That's either suspicious, or reckless; almost like you're happy to lynch anyone who isn't a werewolf. But that's about as subtle as a brick through a window, and you're subtler than that. So I don't think responding in kind is going to help. I'm still a little baffled, though.

To answer your question: The werewolves know who their partner(s) is/are. The villagers are in the dark. If we're to have any hope of making this first lynch vote non-random, we need information. I'm counting on two things to protect our powerhouse villagers: their own knowledge that they should keep their mouth shut, and the fact that the roles aren't revealed in this game---the wolves are disadvantaged because they don't know exactly what they're looking for in a threat, and they don't know what kind of night-roles we have to protect ourselves.

I dunno. It's possible. But this isn't Peggle's first rodeo, and he knows what such a bold play backed by flimsy reasoning would look like to the rest of us. Either he's pulling a double-feint (expecting us to go down the whole "would a werewolf really be THAT bold"? path), or he's got a strange role power that would explain it.[DOUBLEPOST=1377542344][/DOUBLEPOST]
34 hours First night is Tuesday, as I said in recruit thread, due to my small start up delay.

Oh! Missed that part. Good to know.

That is true, though he is amazing good at deception...so it's hard to tell this early in the day really...at least with only one response to base it off of.

It actually might be a good idea to be rid of him early. But, I don't think he would be a werewolf twice.

But, I do have a question for ICountFrom0, could you post the roles that where handed out? Like 2 wolves, 1 seer, etc. It would be nice to what roles are out there.

Roles are chosen randomly, so he could easily be a werewolf two times in a row...just as easily as anyone else could be. However, I don't think it's a wise choice to just bite the bullet and get rid of him early either without more evidence...because if he's NOT a werewolf...then he will be a very good asset for the rest of us.

I also think we need to be aware of how crazy some of the roles are going to be in this game: For all we know, Peggle's vote could have been motivated (or even forced) by his role. A lot of untangling this game---for both (or more?) teams---is going to hinge on figuring out the roles.

I'd like to hear more from PeggleFrank on a very specific question: Not merely "why did you vote to lynch me", but "why did you vote to lynch me so quickly, locking in your vote without any chance for discussion?"

GUYS. Why not everyone say their roles? We could use it to help work out who is not telling the truth...
Also tell your powers if any.

I am a civilian. Sucks to be me.

Since we don't actually know how many roles/powers there are in this particular game, that won't really help us figure it out.

I guess I'll do some RP. Am I hiding a message in it? Who knows...

Well, anyways, I was stationed at my post on the General's ship, when something knocked me out from behind. When I woke up, I was in this inn. Don't know how I got here. Whoever left me here gave me this fancy monocle, though.

He's either saying he's a soldier of some kind, maybe a bodyguard, maybe even a seer with the monocle. at least, he's SAYING that.
