It could just be that he's sulking/hiding because of the controversy - in fact, it seems most likely to me, especially since he already nearly left the 'downs in the last game. Not very responsible modding, but what can you say.

Oh, I agree– you can't have the mod telling players each others' roles just on a whim like that. But all the same, it occurred to me that Para might have got the idea from the last game that it's how we do things here.

Agreed; that could save us a lot of grief in future.

All right, but you're going to feel pretty bad if it turns out he was run over by a bus or something. I'm just saying...:rolleyes:

This reminds me of all those Star magazines. :) sooo...now what? I feel kind of lucky I wasn't a gifted. :p

+1 Thats a good idea.


My first grade teacher was hit by a bus. We had subs the whole year.

BG, you're signed up to mod, right? How many game shave you played?

I think five or six would be a good minimum (maybe we should move this discussion to the general WW thread?)

Well with what's happened and a Mod lost in cyberspace, I can't see how the current game can pick up and continue. But that's for every individual to decide.

I would hate to see a new member's first modded game crash and burn in a fiery blaze, but take it as a learning experience. Modding and playing in other Mafia games does not mean you understand Barrow-downs werewolf. This game is allowed by the Admins of the forum because originally it was loosely based off Tolkien. This is after all a Tolkien forum, and the game has strayed far away from the original design. Too much more, and attempts to alter the way WW is played on this forum, you'll find many of us just deciding not to play anymore, the Admins will shut it down for good (as they should) and that is something none of us want to see happen. So, I'm glad Rikae's said something about the PM.

I would suggest for Para, to re-do signups and reassign roles if he wants his first BD-WW modship to go better. As far as this game as it is, like I said I'm out. I simply won't play in a game that's been unfairly treated by the mod or anyone. Also, no mod right now was a big factor. I remember when another member (who was actually a long time member) signed up to mod a game, began the thread, game was filled, then he disappeared for 2 weeks. I couldn't wait around, neither could some others so we had to drop out. If I'm told to "watch the thread like a hawk" I will, but you best be ready to keep the game rolling and not leave us waiting around. But like I said, everyone's going to have to decide if they wish to continue with this game or not.

There's a couple things about organization and how the last couple of these games have been going that I think we need to have a conversation about. But, I don't think this is the thread to do it in. This should be left open for the planning of Para's game, and whatever winds up happening with it. I'm going to the original thread to post my opinion on general Barrow-Downs WW stuff.

I don't believe that I could, with a clear conscience, continue this game with what I feel to be unearned knowledge of a wolf's identity. If that helped in identifying the others it would feel rather cheap.

I wasn't doing particularly well in the game, I don't think, but I was having fun. Ah, well. :(

I'm in agreement with Zil. I was having fun, but after all of this ruckus, I'm not sure I want to continue.

Even though I dropped out, I don't think knowing the identity of a wolf should influence that decision. Wolves dropped out before, their role became known and the game continued. Not such a big deal.

If this was a "normal" modfire situation I might agree. This seems different, though.

Agreed, I don't see that there is much else to talk about specifically on this game. I think the discussion is going to continue on the main admin thread. Please direct all comments and suggestions there. For now however this thread will be closed so unless Paranoia sends me a PM and wants it reopened it will remain closed. Boromir suggested the chance to redo the game and that would be a situation where this thread would be reopened.
