The Wolf Game

DastardlyOldMan

Still fighting with the power chart a bit; bear with me for another day or two, folks (it will totally be worth it!)

DastardlyOldMan

EIGHT YEARS! Man, you guys are old.

Ars thread is up as well.

DastardlyOldMan

Tony Stark should have his toys.

Ebeneezer McCoy read the summons one more time, and sighed. Now, of all times? Well, it was the prerogative of Merlin to perform the renewal ceremony, but damned if he couldn't have picked a worse time. The Black Council was getting desperate, and Hell knew that the ceremony would be just what they ...

DastardlyOldMan

Yeah - I'm slacking (partially - building up the table of elements and powers ahead of time for this game), but I can at least get a signup thread going.

DastardlyOldMan

Someone give me GM access? I'm flying today, but will be ready to set up over the weekend.

DastardlyOldMan

I feel like a vampire myself right now - night is day and day is night and winter turned to summer. I'll break that tie up with an

e:

ICB - 3 - Ryvvn, Admetus, DOM
RaveBomb - 2 - JRS3, dfer
JRS3 - 2 - RaveBomb, JRS3
Ryvvn - 2 - ICB, sphenodont

Someone needs to be the default Day 2 Lynch. Insert your favorite Christopher Moore titles here.

DastardlyOldMan

I'm about to wander stateside again for a month or two, and would have tons of time to run a game or two as well - put me down after Omega's game. Something non-vanilla for me, probably (maybe return to the elemental concept, or maybe just a vanilla-ish PM game). Plus, if Omega does run a conversion...

DastardlyOldMan

Yeah, after watching Zark's game, I knew I wouldn't play one, but learned a lot just from the sidelines. Hope you picked up some new strategy and ideas, and glad you enjoyed it. I think you made the right choice to clear your signal out of the noise, although that's always tough to do.

Hey hey! Welcome back, amigo.

DastardlyOldMan

Not sure that I can guarantee a connection - out for now, but I might jump back in. Are you thinking about 48-hour days (those give me a higher chance of wandering into some kind of phone network)?

DastardlyOldMan

Game 11 (also, there were no wolves in that game), but I don't see any mention of the forum in a quick read through of Day 1. Damn, some names in there that we haven't seen in a bit.

DastardlyOldMan

Wow - congratulations and condolences. It sounds like she lived a full life, and that's all any of us can really ask for. In terms of doing anything to help, there's not much that can ever be done in these situations, other than lending a shoulder. I've always had a difficult time processing grief (...

DastardlyOldMan

Woohoo - knock 'em dead (well, if you're a wolf, that is).

DastardlyOldMan

Absolutely, go for it.

DastardlyOldMan

21 May sounds just fine to me; I'd suggest we continue with the "if all votes aren't in by 24 hours, extend by 24 hours" mechanic that we've been using a bit of late, to keep WoGs down. I'm definitely in, will make sure I'm near civilization around that time.

DastardlyOldMan

Think that I found the original Village. There were *not* a lot of Villagers (but there was a winery across the street). https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/3pTQJsdSlclv885zDaXlD7j12MI_dsz1d4bdlhrj8SnvVB6bPiTC-4QAKX14qqHlEsaJOV6w0VkzFUossipdmQVG72WSa6oR6PN_Hvop1hEPYX3uRoi9lNvC2vKuFCbBf4mmkEklfg=w2400

A game starting mid June wouldn't be possible either, perhaps?

I'm traveling for a couple of years or thereabouts.

DastardlyOldMan

Not here - no way that I have the time to commit to a game of that caliber, and I'm going to be in and out of wifi range quite a bit.

DastardlyOldMan

On the one hand, I'm a little jealous - just because you're in the middle of it all doing what (I highly suspect) you love, and orchestrating the whole madness to bend to your whim (or maybe having your whim bent around the madness a touch). On the other hand, I'm getting ready to go hike up around ...

DastardlyOldMan

This gets tricky, because we've gotten what looks like probably the ~first two wolves, so looking back to Day 3 or so isn't going to do us much good. I kind of see what rekard is saying about Admetus, but the timing of it doesn't sync for me - in order for Admetus to be a wolf, he'd have to have bee...

DastardlyOldMan

No - just getting into the mindset of "people who would target FCM" a bit, and since she was targeted at Level 1, we have some of that info available.

DastardlyOldMan

I'll agree with Aldax ; as I mentioned earlier, he'd be one of my main conversion targets if I were converted. I'm also considering who would've converted FCM first - both JRS and Ryvvn are out of the game, so it's not pointing to them. In the first iteration of this game, who was the driver for mau...

DastardlyOldMan

I actually agree with FCM on this one - LoL is the right time for any info we can get, even though a seer in a conversion game is less useful. Um Dom? Scroll up. FCM, unless I'm wildly misreading things. Of course, if I'm not misreading it, and you two are chatting elsewhere, I might have to consid...

DastardlyOldMan

#Vote for: Aldax

would be my choice of conversion at this point, if this is conversion. Quietly active.

DastardlyOldMan

Bah, humbug.

#Vote for: Clearasday

, then - since he's been a bit in absentia.

DastardlyOldMan

OK - the proper response during that game was to

#Vote for: SHODAN - Invalid Vote

. Let's see if that doesn't help us along. Otherwise, I think Ryvvn might have had the right idea

DastardlyOldMan

No escape from reality.

I'm still voting for

#Vote for: 7-Zark-7

; IIRC, he was the original creator of SHODAN.

DastardlyOldMan

#Vote for: 7-Zark-7

DastardlyOldMan

Ha! So these are all lazy vig shots, in that the targets are all still alive, eh?

Well, if we're going to be lazy about it, I can do that. We should totally lynch a wolf.

#Vote for: A Wolf

DastardlyOldMan

This power struggle is all well and good, but given the chance, I don't see how we can't

#Vote for: Omega

DastardlyOldMan

I feel like I've got nothing, here. The Day 3 voting still makes me wonky, and the Day 4 voting isn't much better (especially with the wolf not voting). I suspect that we've been giving the wolves little choice in the matter - that's the only way I can explain the lack of self-defense voting that we...

DastardlyOldMan

Guh - no discussion in my overnight, eh? I'm really tempted to go back to Visigoth today, but I don't have a great read anywhere. Aldax is feeling a little iffy to me - he waited until sphenodont posted before voting, and looks like he was setting up to throw some shade my way, but he came out, tone...

DastardlyOldMan

Just glad everything's relatively OK, Zark, and happy to have you back (even on a limited basis) to entertain us. Now - dance for us.

DastardlyOldMan

Tally looks something like: spheno - 5 - jrs3, RaveBomb, Ryvvn, Visigoth, Aldax Visigoth - 2 - DOM, rekard DOM - 1 - sphenodont And alive-ish players, I think: DastardlyOldMan Ryvvn Aldax Visigoth rekard2 RaveBomb Clearly (at least, to me, because I know I'm human), there's at least one wolf on sphe...

DastardlyOldMan

Yeah, like i said, it's maybe a soft clear, and the whole meta argument is dicey as usual. Reaching for what I can get with only a day and a ~half of voting record.

DastardlyOldMan

Wolves are getting crazy lucky with the maul choices. If Admetus left a tell, the only thing I can see is maybe a soft clear of RaveBomb. Going into metaland a bit (I do still have that title, don't I?), we know the wolves logged in and posted a maul yesterday: dferrantino voted for Visigoth sphenod...

DastardlyOldMan

I'll add on to

#Vote for: dferrantino

(of the four votees available). The FCM maul might point to Ryvvn, or it might be wanting us to point to Ryvvn.

(The left-to-vote list still shows the flipped tally.)

DastardlyOldMan

It's not necessarily hand-wavy; last person to vote for a singleton, who themselves is not going to create a singleton. Ozymandias used to do it all the time; with a fresh Day 1 (not worried about ~last-game type concerns), it's nice to be able to take that approach.

DastardlyOldMan

Two items of note: A) Six singletons with 12 players is bad, mmmkay? B) Anyone else note the wording on the role PMS? While you are a member of the crew, for parity purposes, you count as a Passenger. That could be taken two ways: Although you are a member of the crew, you're not really a wolf; As l...

DastardlyOldMan

Something's wrong on this ship! Let's all gang up on someone and bring them to the bridge! Where the wrong things are going on! It's not too late to make it a party! I say we bring both Carrot Top and Jrsthethird. Let's see who else is going: This. Anyone who did not immediately note "Carrot T...

DastardlyOldMan

I've waited so long to climb on board of Ozymandias . . . and double-occupancy? Hello!

OK - now that I'm fully disturbed, I'm going to try to play this one; I'll be relatively static for a week or two (Brisbane, here I come).

DastardlyOldMan

"Vanilla" - nice try, Omega

DastardlyOldMan

I think I have to consider myself kind of half-active at this point, given the traveling. I don't always have reliable wi-fi (I'm off to the wilderness again in a couple of days). I'm definitely still visiting regularly, but I don't know that I'll be actively playing for a bit, and most likely not G...

DastardlyOldMan

I'm back in the land of consistent wi-fi, and I've got a home base for a couple of weeks - so count me in, please.

DastardlyOldMan

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone (it's sooo weird having warm weather for the holiday season - Xmas is the beginning of Summer in the Upside Down).

DastardlyOldMan

One does not simply walk into Mordor. There's a shuttle bus from Taupo. Tongariro Crossing - this one was a tough climb, and by the end, I was dragging quite a bit. We couldn't climb Mt. Doom itself (Ngauruhoe) - it's considered tapu , or sacred ground now (you used to be able to go to the summit), ...
