If the Werwolves pick the person who is being guarded that night to kill,does the Mod(You) let them know via pm?Or is it publicaly known who is being guarded?

As in all Werewolf games, the choice of the Ranger is secret. If the Werewolves attack that person, they will know they picked the Ranger's choice, since the victim won't die and won't become one of them.

The village will be told in the morning if the non-death was the Ranger's Pick or the Attacking of the Accursed.

They may not. It is to be a new, different person every Night.

Thanks for asking, as I didn't clarify that.

Maybe, maybe not...

Although I have participated in double-lynchings in Games that permitted them, and used them to my benefit, I am not a fan of them. In any game where the Moderator called for a vote, I have been in favour of No double-lynchings.

What's more, the way the village finds a Werewolf is through the voting records and night kills of the Werewolves- through the choices they make, in other words. The double-lynchings FORCE the Werewolves to make some high-profile decisions for the villagers to analyse.

And, having played with Morm many a time, I am of the opinion that it is the villagers who manipulate the other villagers into double lynchings, not the Werewolves.

He will.

Okay people!

I have sent out your PMs containing your roles. Remember to keep them secret!

Now would also probably be a good time to set yourselves to Invisible Mode.

Werewolves, you may begin PMing anytime you desire.

The Seer may submit a name as soon as they wish.

As for the rest of you, hang in there... We'll get properly started soon enough.

Finally, concerning Azaelia and Kath: neither of you have submitted occupations- at least that I could see. If you did, let me know, but in the meantime Azaelia is the Town Drunk and Kath is the local Gongfarmer.

Someone who farms gongs.

Thanks

I must mention by the way that my participation will be somewhat limited the first day as that is when my exam is. I might only be able to make two posts that day but I will try to make them long and insightful!

Be warned, it is not the... cleanest... of jobs. But somebody has to do it.

Kath · 01-06-2006, 05:56 PM

I suppose I'll be a clueless Gongfarmer then. Could be fun.

Eluchíl · 01-06-2006, 07:33 PM

I think it's a septic/toilet cleaner. Good luck with that.

Because I watch Dirty Jobs and empathize you can have a free pint at my inn. I would ask that you wipe your feet first.
