Ah, but WW 1 was only the beginning- when all of us were at our least refined. If you truly wish to see
Phantom masterpieces, read these threads-
WW 2- This one was hosted by
SPM, and though our styles hadn't entirely settled, I still have to include it as it was a well earned Wolf victory for me.
WW 4- This game, modded by
TGWBS, was notable in that it was the first ever innocent win. I did my part to help, but the most notable thing about my involvement was my request for lynching volunteers on the first day of the game. It was hilarious and sort of set the tone for what it meant to be
Phantom- amusing and predictably unpredictable.
One Saga to Rule Them All!!- This
Wilwa modded game was just delightful for
Boro,
Lal, and I, the unlynched victorious WWs. If you enjoy slaughter of Ordos, this is a game for you.
Psychotic Penguins- This gem, hosted by
Nog and
Lommy, definitely ranks as one of my favorites. In a period of four days we villagers managed to lynch the three WWs and the Cobbler, and thanks to a lovely set-up from
SeerLal I was able to pretend to be the Hunter though I was but an Ordo. It was a riot!
Dueling Wizards II- This mountain of a game was masterfully hosted by
Nog and took a huge huge investment of time on my part (I was a wizard). The extremely memorable thing in this game is (besides my entertaining posts obviously) the incredible accuracy of all of my nightly selections. The Opera Ghost was on fire, my friends.
At the Source of Darkness- This ruins-exploring adventure, dreamed up by
Mac &
Rikae, required my partner Wolf (
Lommy) and I to walk a fine line, and we did it! Want to learn how to be a good WW? Take notes on this one.
The Republic-
Fea's amazing Rep-voting style game was arguably as great a performance as I've ever had as a good-guy.
Boro and I ran an amazing double-act that is just gripping to read, and we successfully put three WWs into the ground before we were Night-killed. Unfortunately the remaining WW was never caught (
Brin managed quite the escape), but it doesn't undo the previous brilliance.
Chess Game For Middle Earth- This extremely creative contest,
Shasta's baby, was absolutely thrilling beginning to end! The end was notable in that it in fact didn't happen, but we all still remember it fondly, and I was un-friggin-believable as the Cobbler. But believe it or not, it's possible that it wasn't my best ever Cobbler performance, because....
Halls of Mandos- I was just beautiful in this recent
Mac &
Rikae hosted party. I mean, seriously, if I'm not mistaken I actually danced a little jig and jumped up and down at the finish- quite the reaction for someone who always expects to be awesome. That ought to tell you that I went beyond the normal bounds of greatness.
Now, the following games are special due to the fact that they were moderated by yours truly. *bows* Each was quite revolutionary in its time, and the play was fantastic!
Erbar Telamarth- I set out quite a fun story in this one, and even after the game was over there was fun to be had, as I had hidden various "Easter Eggs" throughout my narratives that players were encouraged to find after the contest. Also, my final day final narration that came in bits and pieces was just edge-of-seat stuff (I kept everyone guessing).
With a Twist- I'd love to tell you all about this game, but it would ruin the twist.
Fea helped me with writing the confusing narration which then makes sense at the finish when a huge twist is revealed! It was definitely one of the most evil plots I've ever come up with.
Werewolf- this time it's real! Now this one was very unique in that the game started out like an RPG and then turned into a horrifying game of real life Werewolf! The premise- present day, and Middle Earth is real! You'll just have to read it.
And then also deserving a spot on the list is the brave
Legate who dared to enact an evil plot of mine that I discussed with him privately. The plot? Have a
false Day 1. *snicker*
Prison of Ice
(PS
Bom- if you read too many of these threads at once, you may experience what is known as a Phantogasm. Though it is an amazingly awesome thing, there are negative side-effects which may include temporary blind obedience, loss of reasoning skills, and depression when reading any thread
Phantom hasn't posted on. If I were you, I'd take it slow.)
