Or maybe run games concurrently? There is a lot of interest in both playing and moderating. Maybe there should be an occasional game for novices only - it does seem that the very experienced players can dominate (until they are killed for being too dangerous) . I don't think there should be permanent divisions but if there were enough players for 2 games at a time it might be interesting and helpful to let the beginners and novices have a game to themselves while those who played more got a game where they won't be automatic choices for werewolves night 1...
I agree with that. If it's possible, I could mod the first one, but could I still participate in this one?? I'm after all not quite a begginer now. I did after all fool all of you. As if you thought I was the wolf!! Sheez!!!

It's a vaid point. I, personally, don't think it should be in Nocives and Newcommers. Although you'd be a newcommer to the game, I don't think the thread is one that belongs in that forum. It just seems too...myrth. Having multiple games does sound intriguing, though. PM's out the wazoo!

That's just my two cents!

Having games for novices and experianced is intreging, but at the same time seems like it is forcing. Strategies do include different people of different levels. You can learn more being thrust into it too. So I'm not sure, the idea of having the two different levels seems to make sense, but I'm not sure if it'd work as well as planned.

Having two games going at a time may help with numbers at least though

I personaly think we should start a game for those newcomers who want to play in the WW games, that way, as said before, they get experience for the real thing. I'm volunteering for the possison of mod, only if the Admins don't have a problem with there being a junior version of WW that is. If we have a junior version, it might make the members more interested in playing WW, sooooo...... It's all up to the Admins though..............

It's an admirable proposal, I think it will help out with the growing numbers.

Well, it was always anticipated that we might have two games going at once if the number of people wanting to play was sufficient. Personally, I think that it's a good idea because games are shorter with less players starting and there are therefore less people waiting around for the next one to start. I would suggest 15 players as a max, with 12 around the ideal number.

I've no problem with a game for "beginners", although the boundaries will become less defined over time. But I'm not happy with the idea of players participating in more than one game at the same time. So I would suggest that the first Werewolf junior starts once wilwa's game is over with Glirdan moderating.

Any objections?

Sounds good! I'll bring the spices (assuming I survive X)
