In a game without Shirriffs it's much more difficult to effectively utilize mass lynchings and that's one of the major reasons I'm in favor of them this game; strategically they become much more difficult yet could still be very effective for both sides to employ.

PS. Holby what time today do you think roles will be sent out? I'm dying with curiiousity

Holbytlass has just left Hobbiton.
About 8:00-ish(EDT) tonight, that way it still is about 24 hours for the wolves to strategize.

Freindly reminder: make room for private messages and go into invisible mode

I have sent out the secret roles, any questions P.M. me.
Wolves p.m., seer give me a name, ranger waits for the first game night (alas I can't be saved) and hunter waits till they're dead.

Well, I am back from my busy day... And I say no to mass lynchings. Being the victim of one isn't that fun.

Non-retractable votes are good, too. I don't think we should be allowed to second-guess ourselves.

Hooray!! I can't wait for Werewolf XI to begin!

I'm back. I think a two-at-a-time rule is probably best for lynchings. In a more than two-way tie, the first two to have been voted for should be lynched.

And I am in favor of non-retractable votes.

The game commenced with Holby sending out the roles. This thread should now go quiet, but for excuses for non-appearance and admin-related questions (although the latter are better addressed by PM to Holby).

Thoughts on mass lynchings and retractable/non-retractable votes should no longer be aired now that the game has begun. Final say now goes to Holby.

Just to let everyone who wasn't able to get into Holby's game, I need like nine more people in my game before we can start it. Just thought I'd let you all know.
