3 more people and we can definitely start with 2 wolves (but maybe without the cobbler - thoughts?). 5 more and we can have the cobbler and maybe another wolf (also thoughts?).

Two more people is still only nine players in all... so yes, maybe lose the cobbler in that case.

I'll be a barrow-wight. Someone has to!

Having been prodded in this direction by Galadriel, I shall swallow my fear and sign up as an inverted gorcrow. That sounds worse than it is - I'm not hideously malformed, I just have a bizarre tendency to hang and occasionally fly upside-down. ^_^

I've never played forum Werewolf before; I've played a fair bit of One Night Werewolf with family (though don't think that means an easy ride: my parents absolutely delight in nailing me to the church door!), though, so I at least know not to start by posting "What does it mean when it says 'PM with other wolves'?".

Highlight check - oh good, it works like I thought. (Votes are generally non-retractable around here, is that right?)

Now I guess it's time to wait and see if long-winded theorising about Middle-earth can make the transition to long-winded theorising about the nefarious nighttime habits of the local fauna...

(For reference: male, UK-based.)

All Night communications are done via Private Message.
(You can access your messages in the top right corner of the screen, and you can send messages to <5 people at a time: select "send new message" on the menu on the left of that screen, and type in the name(s) in the Recepient field - they will pop up).

Seer, Ranger, and wolf picks are sent to me by PM before the end of each Night.

Before choosing the kill, wolves also PM amongst each other to decide who to kill, plot strategy, and share any other thoughts they want.

Speaking of this, another thing I forgot to put in the first post, but will edit now. All players must use Invisible Mode during the game (User CP (top left of every screen) --> Edit Options (on left) --> check the box for Invisible Mode at the very top). That way other people can't see who is PMing every Night.

Thanks!

I suppose it's probably better to ask this than risk any confusion, though I'm sure you'll put it up in the rules anyway - the Downs usually has unretractable votes, is that right?
