I'm not going to read all of that bc I'm too lazy and can't be bothered, before someone goes, "buT WhY aREn'T you GOiNg tO DeFEnD YouRseLf?"

It's like 5 pages, I'm tired from a really crappy day, and tbh it works out so I can get out of this game and focus in on what's going to happen with this class I've been assigned to teach while simultaneously being told not to teach it

[E. Gadd Industries]

Was gonna vote for myself to help the count along but I forgot I already did. Peace.

Question for host: What does 'last human alive' mean for the PNS? Is this condition met once the wolf has been lynched and there are other humans left, or should there specifically be no (other) humans left?

The "last human alive" victory condition for the PNS only applies if the PNS is the last player alive who counts as human. So if the Head Honcho and the PNS were the last two players remaining at the end of the game, the PNS would achieve victory.

Hope everything works out for you okay e gadd,

Feel bad your availability worked out and that you came back to this so close to phase end, but as you say hopefully for the best for you

[E. Gadd Industries]

Thanks. Depending on how long this game lasts, I might not be able to devote time to the next one. Politics in academia suuuuuuck.

Either way, best of luck humans

TWG CXV: Just a Numbers Game

Spoiler

To some, it's just another day at the office. To others... every day is a life and death struggle to try and slog through another grueling day at work. But today... something's different. Today, nine people wake up in an empty office, tied to chairs in a circle facing away from all the others. There's one rule to the game: pick a number, any number.

Wolves:
1. Head Honcho: Every night, the Head Honcho picks a number between 0 and 100 by PM'ing the host with their selection. Every night, all the other players PM the host a number between 0 and 100. Whoever's number is closest to the number the Head Honcho picks dies. In case of a tie, all tied players die. People who do not pick a number (including the Head Honcho) have their number randomized.

Humans:
2. Number Cruncher
3. Number Cruncher
4. Number Cruncher
5. Number Cruncher
6. Number Cruncher
7. Number Cruncher
8. Number Cruncher

Third Party:
9. The Phantom Number Swapper: Counts as a Human. Every night, in addition to picking their own number, they select one player. The Phantom Number Swapper picks a NEW number for that person, and if they are human, that is their selected number for wolfing purposes. Wins if someone is wolfed as a result of their shenanigans—either if the person who's number they swapped is wolfed, or if someone else is wolfed because of the number swap—or if they are the last Human alive. Can win with either team.

Host Clarifications:

• The Phantom Number Swapper's powers can only affect humans.
• The swapped number that the Phantom Number Swapper picks can potentially be the same number they picked for themself.
• The Phantom Number Swapper can choose not to use their power each night.
• The Phantom Number Swapper can win as a result of their own death if they died as the result of swapping the would-be wolfing target's number.
• The Phantom Number Swapper is informed when they achieve victory. It is not announced publicly.
• An example of The Phantom Number Swapper's victory: Player A picks 20 as their number. Player B picks 21 as their number. The Swapper swaps Player B's number to 50. The Head Honcho picked 21 as the wolfing number. Player A dies instead of Player B.
• An example of when The Phantom Number Swapper does NOT achieve victory: Player A and Player B both pick 50 as their number. The Swapper swaps Player A's number to 60. The Head Honcho picked 50 as the wolfing number. Because Player B would have died either way, this does not count as death-by-shenanigans.
• The number(s) of any killed players will be announced, but the number the Head Honcho picked will not be.
• The Head Honcho wins whenever there is one or fewer humans remaining.
• The game does not have cardflips.
