TWG 87: Player Sign Ups

[Dudeman]

hello I'm a noob who joined when items were on a downswing

[E. Gadd Industries]

I like the concept here and the steps being taken to make sure items are used. So, will the items be randomized, like in Lucky Sevens?

Also, the fake blue human is usually called the Herring, but Chef is an interesting title to use so I'm cool with it.

Yes, the items will be completely random. Yeah, about the Herring vs. Chef thing, I wasn't quite sure about what a "Herring" is/was, so I decided to go off the beaten path and come up with something randomly new!

A herring is mainly for when scum have a seer role to protect the power roles.

a few Q's.

So the person who gets turned into a wolf, do they have wolf win cons? (while a wolf?)
I'm guessing it's a night start? so when does the first transformation happen if its for a night/day phase period?
 is there a distribution for items or are all of them equally likely to be randed?

Erm... Just remembered that I can't play now... Out...

1. If the wolves win, and a person is turned, they will be broken from their "possession" and the wolf will no longer be able to possess the person.
2. It will start with night phase, and the wolf will choose whom they will transform, which will then have to wolf someone right out of the gate, and will be a wolf until the next night phase.
3. Item distribution is completely random.

This could be a problem. What if the wolf doesn't decide who to convert until really late in the night phase? Then the converted wolf has almost no time to do anything, especially if they aren't super active.

[E. Gadd Industries]

Hmmm... I suppose you have a point. I guess I forgot that not everyone is as certain about things as convenience would hold them to be. XD Alright, so they don't turn anyone the first night phase, and then they do every night phase following.

[Dudeman]

My point still stands for every other night phase. How is anyone supposed to coordinate that effectively?

EDIT: Idea. The wolf chooses his wolf target during the day phase and the selected human is told at the start of the night phase. There. That should fix it. Still means no conversion during Night 1, though.

[E. Gadd Industries]

BRILLIANT!! I shall incorporate your idea promptly!

Presuming NocturneofShadow can balance his game for 8 people, I'll put up the poll tomorrow at 11PM EST.

Hopefully, I don't fall asleep on a subway train on my way back home, haha.

either that or an extended night phase... although that might not be good.
unless first one is rand.
