I would be in favor of removing one of the wolf roles and changing one of the humans to a third party whose main goal is disruptive to the humans moreso than the wolves. Maybe make the Termite-Infested Stump the third party, and have their wincon either be:
- Surviving until the end of the game.
OR
- Dying and hitting a human with their power.

1 wolf, 5 humans, and 1 third party seems... alright? The only issue there is that the game might only have 2 lynches, which doesn't give a lot of opportunity to actually make sure of the gimmick (but I think that's just an issue of there not being enough players period, which isn't really something we can work around).

EDIT: What are other people's thoughts on adding a Guardian or a one-use Reviver? That might help extend the game a bit which allows proper use of the gimmick.

Also, at what point are we going to call host sign-ups and let N1p2 host his game?

I think it's safe to say N1P2 is the only host contender this time around; I just wanna make sure the game is balanced before we go ahead with player sign-ups.

If you believe the game is balanced enough as-is, we can go ahead, but I was assuming there'd be more changes based on feedback thus far.

Also, the Halloween story was a fun read. Is the new Moxie a skinwalker?? ?? ?? (avoiding the emoticon)

I'd like to leave the exact details of what might have happened up to imagination

Welly well I'm back again to say conglaturations on the 20 years, as well as 5K sheets! Museum is also pretty cool Um... would folks be interested in a short story thread? I'm weighing posting some of my work online prior to the publication of anything official, but idk. Would potentially be good for feedback as well :<

I will always encourage people to make short story threads

TWG: I'm Not Dead Yet!

So, if I'm understanding things correctly, all Stumps, including the Wolf Stump, are assigned a Day 2-4 at random, and if they die before then they still get to post on that day?

Davy, do you think getting rid of a wolf would make the game more balanced? It would also make the game for 7 players, which might be more manageable to fill given recent TWG activity.

yeah what he said

BRO. I was literally just thinking about this topic a couple hours ago

...which is, of course, the best way to get someone else to post in it.

Maybe I'll try and cook up a game. Might take a couple days though.

If nobody submits a game, the topic will keep going until someone does

Hopefully we can get it to 90,000+ by October 2024?

Goal has been met and exceeded

I'm here to announce the release of my first full-length novel, The Five Gods of Verdasa, a fantasy adventure eldritch horror story. As with The Dread Somber, it's free to read if you have Kindle Unlimited!!!

EDIT: As of today, August 5, I just noticed that the thread has exceeded 100,000 views!!!!!

egg

So, I advanced to semifinals! I believe that makes me the first NSM representative to advance, although to be fair I'm the only NSM rep after they switched to the current system and I believe Toby made wildcards for LLF. Scheduling is just starting now, but my next game should start sometime within the next five weeks, so wish me luck!

HYPE! HYPE! HYPE!

how bout this weather huh

Games should be built around 6-7 players, as per the most recent activity poll. Hosting poll will go up end of day on Friday, July 26th.

Hosts:
1.
2.
...

We have 7 votes, 6 for "yes" on the interest poll. I'll give it until Thursday the 18th before putting up host sign-ups.

I am genuinely curious what about my actions played as wolfy enough to get voted because my mindset going into this game was to just play as vanilla as possible (no strategy, just be honest), and it get me to a lynch x).
I chose TZP D1 because no joke, TZP thought nearly the EXACT same way i did when choosing a candidate hahaha. I was like, "thats something i literally thought to myself... i wonder if they are the other wolf thinking like me."
The irony in that, alone...

IIRC, on my end it was mostly just process of elimination of everybody else not being wolfy enough for me to feel comfortable lynching them. After Specs claimed to me he was off the table.

And someone (i forget who) hit the nail on the head when i said i was sticking to my guts at the end just to throw everyone into a bit of chaos. I knew my time was up, i honestly didnt want to fake claim so i thought, i hope me not claiming will either change votes or make everyone doubt everything. In a way, i got what i wanted 😂

i think that was also tzp lol
