Rules:

All rules are traditional except for the following:

Day will end at 10 PM each day. All lists must be in by then. Any actions taken after then but before daytime update posts *may* be counted, but there is no guarantee.

Protection is given by Sparks. You can earn Sparks through posting requirements or role powers. Every attack will have a power randomly decided between 1 and 100; you will lose that value in Sparks after being attacked. If you go below zero, you die.

Execution will change every day, and execution methods will be described in detail before those days. Nobody votes are illegal and will be counted as abstentions.

There will also be a posting requirement each day. It will change every day, and it is up to you to figure them out. The prize for getting it correct will either be Spark protection or an ability.



Prologue

All over the Sparkbomb Mansion, people were excitedly signing up for the new Werewolf Game, hosted by Shattered Rift. Everyone knew it would be an awesome game. When signups finally closed, everyone gathered in the Foyer to receive their roles from the MC.

That was where they found his body. The lacerations that covered his corpse were unmistakeably the results of a Werewolf attack.

Trajectory was the first to speak. "This is a horrible tragedy. We need to bury the body and hold a funeral service!"

Fortunately, TOSO was there to take the floor. "Traj, I know you mean well, but some things are more important than respect for the dead. If we don't find a new MC, this Werewolf game could start a couple of days late! Who wants to be the MC for this fabulous game that we have all signed up for?"

Two candidates stepped forward, and immediately entered into a shouting match about whether there should be a graveyard thread, whether people should be able to quote their role PMs and if it would be possible for everyone to put a bag over their heads, communicate only through the written word and play anonymously, in order to eliminate biases.

Suddenly, everyone remembered that there were also Werewolves on the loose. They still needed to be dealt with. And that was when TOSO landed on the perfect solution:

"We'll play a Werewolf game right here, right now. We'll execute the Werewolves, and whichever MC is still alive will host the next game."

And so Day 1 began.

Day 1 execution: Simple Majority. Any player who receives more than half of the votes cast will be executed.

Because I was late getting the roles out and the thread up, I may delay the next day by 24 hours if I'm missing a large number of lists or votes. Don't plan on it though.

FIRST!! Oh hai.
Vote:Rexozord random.

*does a little jig* Yay for day 1!
Vote: Puck

Wild point in the dark.

*picks random number between 1 and 14* (Yark is excluded for now)
*gets a 2*
Vote: Lord Owlstar

Hmmm. A posting requirement we have to figure out, which changes everyday. Any guesses on how to go about figuring it out? Prologue doesn't seem to have any hints that I can find.

Voting for lucky 13!

Vote: Linyah

And I have no idea how we're supposed to find the posting requirement...

Vote: Strat

I have some expectation that hints will be dropped soon as to this posting requirement.

Side note: I sound ridiculous when I first wake up.

I think Kirby is right, we'll probably get hints about the posting requirement later. I think that the changing of execution methods every day might be a tad confusing.

Also, another question: Day ends at 10PM in which time zone?

The signup thread said Central.

hmmmm...
Vote: Yark
WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT HIM!
[/sarcasm]

Nothing personal man. just don't have indicators yet.

Woo Windows 7!

"Hey, my computer is fixed so you don't have to kick me out like I thought you might."

Rift wanted me to clarify what my original post meant.

Guess I'm an enigma for the game since it's been 2 years since I last played a Werewolf game.

If we don't get hints, then it would be hard for us to know how to do then. I'm sure once night finishes, we'll get a hint of some sort.
I wonder if there's one right now? Maybe just posting?

Look harder.


Stop complaining! Noob!


Is this a posting requirement or just a meaningless piece of information?


Yark is actually a girl (or so I have been lead to believe ).


This actually may be accurate. There may not be a posting requirement for Day 1. However... I think that you, are in fact, wrong.

Vote: Lord Owlstar

Vengeance, obviously.

Vote: Stratus

Voting for a noob? For shame.

I didn't notice Lixyl's Vote...
Unvote:Yark
Vote: Lixyl
I must defend my lady's honor.

Vote: Rex

For the same reason I voted him last game.

Edit : Let me clarify, it might not have been last game. Whichever one wherein Rex was the dreamer.

I'm going to take a stab at the Posting requirement that's hidden...

Shattered Rift was a dear friend and with his death coming on such hard times I'm sure he will be missed by friends and enemies alike. Day 1

Also, in case it's just voting... Vote: Rex

I wonder if it's not Day 1?

Or should I be speaking first?

Unvote: Stratus
Vote: Red

Your reason for voting is just as fail as it was the last time. You really should have learned better by now.

Day ends at 10 PM Central time. I'm going to go ahead and push it back a day though, since I have not received nearly enough lists and some people have not posted yet.

Vote: Kirby-oh

Gonna defend my man <3

vote: red

You remember the logic from the last game wasn't good so why bring it back up now? WW games are about voting with no preconceptions (even though that impossible once one plays enough) but to directly vote for someone in a new game is pointless. You really just want to get Rex executed again.

Let's see. You're voting me because you're getting the same read on me that you got when I was a dreamer. This either makes you stupid or... no, even if you were a baddie, this would still be stupid. Seriously though, get off my case!

Unvote: Lord Owlstar
Vote: Red

*crosses arms* Darn, I don't see it, unless you made it obvious, Rex.
Yeah, I'm a girl. =P

Since I don't know any changes since I last played, I'll just watch the vengeance votes fly and change vote if needed. Something haven't changed, I see.

vote red
the power of idiocracy at work.

Vote: Red for majority
But I'm all for switching to Zen if you guys want.

Unvote: Rex

It was a joke. Hence the ":P" smilie in my post.

Right, because you've apparently learned the meaning of "joke" between last game and this one. Uh huh.

Unvote: Strat
Vote: Red

I also really don't like Strat's vote for Yark out of being new, especially since it requires leaving someone alive for a few days to start getting readings. It just don't make sense.

Unvote: Puck
Vote: Red

I do remember Red doing this a long time ago. Something don't change, eh?

Thanks Kirby. I do want to get a grasp of WW again cause I am rusty. Bang! Bang!

So...Red bandwaggon?

Meh. Okay. I don't really care at this point.

Unvote: Linyah
Vote: Red

I wasn't really expecting my counter-vote on Red to turn into a bandwagon. I can't say I'm too sorry about it though. It's his own fault if he dies innocent.

Unvote: Lord Owlstar
Vote: Red

Tomorrow Stratus should get executed for trying to kill Papparmant Patty, I mean Yark. Please don't scare off the n00bs. Wait for the n00bs to slip up and reveal they are evil are at least till later in the game.

Now for copying people trying to get the posting req (I'd just copy everything everyone has said but I think TOSO would probably sadface me ) But the Day 1 thing is a good idea. Maybe the heart <3.

Jeez guys it was a joke and I mean it. I had every intention of changing my vote when something else came up. I need to start coloring my sarcastic or joking comments a different color then the rest of my post.

I'd say it's worth a try

Votes so far:

Rexozord (2): Lord Owlstar, Zen
Lixyl (1): StratusNova
Red (9): Trajectory, Firestorm, Rexozord, LBZ, Yoshi, Kirby-Oh, Yark, Lixyl, WWClucky
Kirby-Oh (1): Linyah

At this point Red will be executed, with Yark supplying the deciding vote.

Day ends in 6 hours and 22 minutes.

EDIT: 1337 posts!

...I think Clucky was also joking about voting you.

Also, it's getting kind've annoying how insults about stupidity are flung around in these games. It'd be all fine and dandy if they were just considered joking around, but it doesn't seem like joking around in Werewolf games is successful at all. Apparently Werewolf is serious business, and throwing around insults is a bad thing to do when it's serious business.

And now I want to try this Day 1 thing.

Eh, its more or less a random way of picking someone as I don't actually think it changes the likelyhood SN is evil or not. What happens tonight will probably influence how I vote more than anything else though.

Aww crud. Why did I have to be the deciding vote? Day 1 (when in Rome...) is all finger pointing anyways, but wow.

If the fingers go towards me next...oy.

Day 1 Results

Voting record as above.

Red stepped forward to meet his eventual doom. TOSO was not one for ceremony, pomp or circumstance, so he pulled out a shotgun and shot Red square in the face. Red fell over and began to grow hair all over his face and body. He was the Gamma Wolf.

With that taken care of, TOSO revealed today's posting requirement: to make a post with exactly three punctuation marks (basically any keystroke that is not a letter, number, emoticon, apostrophe, hyphen or space counts, since apostrophes and hyphens are part of words). The following people fulfilled that requirement:

Trajectory
Rexozord
StratusNova
WWClucky

A prize of 100 sparks will be divided evenly between them.

Night 1 begins

Night 1 Results

"I didn't ask for your help! GET OUT!" A burly man is kicked out of a room. He had been protecting his target, but that protection had somehow backfired, injuring the man he had been protecting. Luckily the man was not killed.

One person who was killed, however, was Zen. His corpse was found viciously torn apart by ravenous wolves. They had claimed their first victim in this game. Zen was the Witch.

Elsewhere in the Mansion, two people confronted each other directly. "I know what you're planning to do, and I'm asking you to reconsider." The man did not respond, and held up a single hand. "Please, NO!" A bright green vortex shot forward, enveloping the other man but not physically injuring him.

Much later, as people began to filter back into the foyer for that day's announcements, a large metallic box was seen sitting on the floor. A voice could be heard from inside; it belonged to Rexozord. "How do I get out of here? I'm scared!"

He had the choice of six exits to take from the box, conveniently labeled 1 through 6. Some would have beneficial effects on the person passing through them, some detrimental, and some would do nothing at all. He will not be able to vote or use his role until he chooses one and posts it on the thread.

Day 2 begins

Execution style: Lottery. At the end of the day I will draw the name of one living player; whoever that person voted for will be executed. If that person did not vote or was unable to vote, no execution will occur.

Well, that was a lucky first kill. And what did those 4 post in common that got them the posting requirement prize? I don't see it.

For now, I'll withold my vote. I've got no suspicions for now. I'll vote later.

they used three '.'

I think i will have to side with Lixyl and hold off from voting for now.

Query: can other roles affect me while I'm in the cage? I feel like the answer will be no; never any harm in asking, though.

While I wait for that answer, I'm going to go ahead and say that I'm suspicious of Clucky. Unfortunately, I can't back that up with anything. It's just what I'm thinking at the moment. I'll probably vote for Clucky once I get out of the box, unless something comes up.

Nope, you cannot be targeted.

Witch sounds bad. So it sounds like got super lucky last night =)

The fact that Red was a wolf helps a lot.

Vote: Kirby-Oh

Probably no more of a hunch than Rex has on me. Probably similar reasons behind it to. While we can't rule out the people who started voting for Red, I personally think wolves would've been more likely to vote when it was clear Red was dying and it looked like harmless bandwagoning.

Witch is an innocent role. *Goes to update the first post*

Whoever hit me with a maelstrom last night: WAY TO GO!!!

I WAS MC candidate A! With a massive amount of 70 sparks and a list of items on which to spend it. Including vortexes and grenades, tractor beams, and a a fifty spark resurrection.

I'm now a Plain Innocent.

Wait, what? I clearly satisfied the first day requirement by saying "FIRST!!" (two exclamation marks) and then I used two periods. I demand my rightful sparks!

Anyways, I think that the Witch role might actually be our dreamer.

Then I'll just stay in my box for now.


Yes, that's four punctuation marks. You needed three.

>.< I'll read more carefully next time. I think trying to actively get the posting requirement will be difficult if yesterday's was any indication of what they will be like. I'm also holding off on voting for now.

Guess the bandwagon on Red did pay off really well. One wolf down already.
I don't know who to suspect cause everyone went to red pretty fast without defending him.

Curse not knowing everyone on here yet, so I'll vote later today cause I seriously have no lead.
