Werewolf CXII - Dueling Wizards III - The Living Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The guests groggily woke from their sleep with the dawn.

"What weird dreams," said Boro and Nog together.

"I agree," said Morsul.

"Even in my dreams I am absolutely awesome," said Legate.

"Humph," said Nerwen.

"Hey, we're pretty awesome toooOOOOOooo!" said Brinniel and Sally together.

"Yeah, but I'm still psychic when I'm asleep," said Shasta. "Annnd, still lived through the end of the game...for what that may or may not be worth. I'll take it!"

"At least I got to be a warg...ish type creature...at the end...by a technicality," said Eomer. "I still won, though."

"I think Kuru poisoned our food!" exclaimed Mith "Let's get him!"

"Yeah!" agreed everyone.

They charged out the door...

...to find themselves at a cave mouth that led them to a labyrinthine system of canyons...

Not again...

WEREWOLVES VICTORIOUS!

In honor of the werewolves victory, we will have our post game chat in this thread.

I will post a post-mortem later, but now I must dash.

Thank you everyone for playing and I hope you had fun!

The final NIGHT, the Good Wizard attempted to turn the Evil Wizard into a Visitor.

That didn't work.

The Evil Wizard attempted to kill the Ranger...again.

That still didn't work.

The Evil Wizard converted Eomer.

That worked.

Inziladun · 07-20-2017, 06:00 PM

Ach.

Congrats, EW, and you wicked minions!

I hate that I didn't get more action in the World of the Living, but as I said in the Afterlife, I had to cut and run on the Day I was lynched. Baddies took advantage, naturally.

Anyway, the Dead Thread was great fun, and it was nice to have some way of staying active after I was taken out.

Thanks, Kuru. Great concept and execution (pun definitely intended).

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 07-20-2017, 06:03 PM

No...

Loslote · 07-20-2017, 06:19 PM

Congrats, wolves.

Game well played!

I had a lot of fun in the Dead thread, at least, so congrats as well to Kuru for an exciting game!

Legate, you were the EW, right? The Dead thread was so frustrated for Days that the living wouldn't just kill you already.

And who was the GW? Why was Lal listed with the Dead? What a game.

Somebody didn't click on the links...and I went to so much trouble.

Haha, my bad! I got a little lazy in my death.

I totally called Nerwen as a Wizard, though I really thought she was a Wizard of another flavor.

Same here. I had a feeling about her from the start; I just thought from the way she jumped on my 'slip' that evil was more likely.

We sure tried to help you, Shasta. Turns out Legate couldn't be lynched, but we didn't know that.

I'll be back later with more, but for now, cheers to everyone on both sides!

Nerwen · 07-20-2017, 08:59 PM

Dammit! Well, it was worth a try. I thought Brinn was more likely to be the EW. At least we identified the correct trio of villains.

Trouble is you cunning baddies never gave us enough concrete evidence to get you lynched on- and there was always somebody else practically screaming to be checked out at Night.

And no, Zil,I did not "jump" on you, I just poked you a bit and you overreacted. I didn't allow enough at first for how paranoid the lack of reference points was making ordos in this village.

Anyway, good game.

Nerwen · 07-20-2017, 09:28 PM

Oh, and the way this bloody village kept lynching/trying to lynch my known innocents! Maddening, it was.

Mithalwen · 07-20-2017, 09:54 PM

They did have a habit of looking fishy. Amazing how death clears the mind. Aatounded Lal wasman ordo though.

It's all good. It just baffles me that when I'm at my least guarded, ie, when I'm a cannon-fodder ordo, that people seem to pick up 'defensive' or wolfly vibes from me.

Believe me, you weren't the only one. It surely was for me as well.

Agreed. It was quite the re-entry into WW after a four year hiatus.

Nogrod · 07-21-2017, 03:38 AM

Oh my...

Congrats to the evil side and three hails to the good-team for putting up a real fight we ordos were quite incapable of providing.

I must admit I like these games with the dead-thread as one can continue playing after being removed from the main-thread.

There is one thing I'd be happy to be educated though - I mean as no one else has asked this it must just be that I'm blind or stupid or just terribly bad at reading the rules. But I'm interested in knowing it nevertheless.

So how come the game ended already if the evil side missed a kill?

That worked.

The Evil side obviously killed Lalaith, but how come the EW were then able to try to kill the ranger as well, on top of converting Eomer? I mean there is a mentioning in the rules that the EW may kill solo, but to me it looks like it is reserved for situations where the EW is on her own in the Living Thread:

Quote:

The Evil Wizard may make kills solo once they have created a wolf (in a scenario where the Evil Wizard has lost all their wolves). This rule applies even if the Evil Wizard has wolf picks in reserve that have not been used yet but is for some reason on his/her own.

Did the EW always have two personal acts / Night - on top of the wolves doing their own killing? If yes, then I'd suggest it makes the Evil side way too powerful.

What am I missing here? (Obviously something)
