Werewolf IV (In Session)

[Eldritch Knight]

Mal now has just shy of 33% of the vote. Approximatly 32.6% to be exact.

[Korith]

Hmm. Anything I say seems to be ignored. I'm slightly okay with that, but not with Korith ignoring my pointing in his recap. I wasnt even added to the "not voted" section. Its like Korith refuses to believe I exist!

Im pointing at Eldritch Knight because I distrust his reasoning. I might be pointing at Korith soon however...

huh? Korith...i haven't voted...

Apologies to the both of you. I'll see if I can figure out what went wrong to avoid it in my future efforts.

[evnafets]

Well if its inevitable, I'll join the bandwagon.

evnafets points at Malmagor

@^ I wouldn't be too hard on yourself. Finding and tracking every single vote is quite a task. I know I used your work to correct some mistakes in mine ;-)

[Joosbawx]

Well if its inevitable, I'll join the bandwagon.

evnafets points at Malmagor

"It wasn't inevitable until you put him over the edge...along with the rest of you. I still stand my ground with my previously stated suspicions or Iames, Vael, and TheChris."

Joosbawx keeps his finger firmly extended toward Lord Iames. (not red because it has already been tallied.)

[Altharis]

(new suggestion: When your post has no OOC info on it, and is just pure acting, please put a "IC" in Blue at the top of your post please! That should help confusion.)
IC

"Olives!!!!! Yumity scrummity olives! I command you as king of the walruses to pretty please with sugar on top give me some olives! I also need a room for myself and a stabling for Freddy my Flatulent Walrus, before it's too late to save you nasal organs!"

(So far Joosbawx has got the best argument, but Malmagor is being a bit too talkative and dismissive, clear signs of a werewolf)

[Jontom Xire]

IC

Well three should be enough for a patrol, Jontom says turning to Ceika and DarkLightDragon. Let's leave this lot to decide. They know my vote. let's have a quick scout around see if we can find anything incriminating to werewolves. I'll patrol in the sky.

Jontom launches himself into the air, flying above the town, his eyes scanning for any sign of werewolf tracks and also watching all that happens below.

[TheRabidWalnut]

Apologies to the both of you. I'll see if I can figure out what went wrong to avoid it in my future efforts.

I know what went wrong, you tried to rearrange the votes to your favour, and we called you on it.

That's Wolf behaviour!

TheRabidWalnut is keeping a close eye on Korith... whilst following Eldritch Knight around going "Wolf! Wolf! Wolf! Wolf!"

[Korith]

Well, I took a look at my spreadsheet and found the following sources of error:

Missing The Rabid Walnut was a copy/paste error. Since I was sorting the votes by group size manually, I missed one of the one-offs.

As for Malmagor, I believe that was simply an entry error - Death pointed at Malmagor, and I somehow entered the reverse.

I'll be double-checking my records for accuracy now and drop another "unofficial" tally.

[Selrahc]

Ms. Elaneous is pointing at El J not me.

[Alarra]

Still missed at least one vote there that I noticed. *points out that the official tally on the previous page has been kept up to date with each new vote if you'd rather just look at that one*

Right you are...fixed

[Gnome Barbarian]

Looks at everyone cast votes and shakes his head....

"All this mindless pointing is only going to lead to teh village becoming split.... In my honest opionion I also believe that those who voted for Mal when the ball got rolling are defintly on my list of possible werewolves. For if Mal isn't a werewolf then wolves would vote him so they don't get lynched and if he is a werewolf the rest of the wolves would vote for him just to show that they voted for one of their own... Though i am not sure of anyones innocents at the moment I know I must vote or fall victim to scrutiny..."

*Gnome Barbarian points at Vael

"Maybe before his lynching he has given us a gift of a wolf."

[Madmal]

"Olives!!!!! Yumity scrummity olives! I command you as king of the walruses to pretty please with sugar on top give me some olives! I also need a room for myself and a stabling for Freddy my Flatulent Walrus, before it's too late to save you nasal organs!"

(So far Joosbawx has got the best argument, but Malmagor is being a bit too talkative and dismissive, clear signs of a werewolf)

Malmagor appears in a window, watching amusely all the fuss on his yard

Clear signs of a sheep-wannabe:over-excitement and talking to their food...but i have to remember that you were one of the first ones to acusse me, walrus...but alas, so late to try to plant any useful thing on this rotten soil...

IC
They know my vote. let's have a quick scout around see if we can find anything incriminating to werewolves. I'll patrol in the sky.

Interesting...Are you going to let this numbed fool one of the most important jobs? if he turns outto be the bannner, i feel really sorry for all of you...since he seems to have such a foolich assuption on werewolves....everyone who had somewhat investigated about them, would know that they can only assume three different forms: human, Hybrid, and animal, besides, they only transforms fully, unlike me....

saying this, he shapeshifts his right arm into a feathery red wing, gets some feathers out of it, and returns it to normal

Just remember to bury me in front of my house after all this confusion has concluded...

He dissapears from sight. into his hut

[Altharis]

Great a "Let's all feel sorry for me" post. The tribe has voted, and they say that you die. Long accusing posts and typo's aren't going to change that.

(BTW, I LOVE olives, and if you insult me about them again, I'll grind you inot a pulp.)

(No harsh feelings?)

[Selrahc]

An in depth investigation shows how little we know about the werewolves....

Some seem to shift only on the full moon, in a frenzy of blood. Others are eco warriors fighting for the earth. The tribes of the moon or the frenzied hunters.

The number of forms could be five? Two? Three?

Are they witches who steal the skins of wolves? Demons in human form? The beast in every human?

((There are other sources than DnD rules ))

[Jontom Xire]

OOC

((There are other sources than DnD rules ))

And of course, being a superstitious villager I just happen to have a copy of the DnD rulebook available to look all this stuff up in so that I can determine that Malmagor isn't a werewolf!

Get real Malmagor and stop meta-gaming. We all hate the people who, with very little adventuring, their characters are able to identify every monster and know it's weaknesses, because the person playing the character has read the monster manual from cover to cover - several times.

We have victims of werewolves and about all we, as simple villagers, would know is that werewolves are those who hide in human form during the day and shapeshift to the forms of wolves at night. You shape-shifted to a wolverine in front of the entire village. I mean, DUH!

Oh, and Korith, or whoever it was found me suspicious because I suggested Malmagor was a werewolf in the first place, get real please. "Starting dissension" or whatever it was I was accused of? Hardly. I wasn't the first person to point the finger of blame. I wasn't the first to suggest a lynching. And given that at this stage no-one has any evidence iof anything, Malmagor, with his shapeshifting, was so definitely the most obvious target. Frankly I'm surprised I was able to point at him first, that someone else didn't get there first, and I'm surprised it wasn't a landslide 100% vote.

All my character knows, in this game, is that werewolves are lycanthropes and that lycanthropes shapeshift into animal forms. Oh, and posting "werebump" multiple times in the Bumpitty-bump thread implies that your character is definitely lycanthropic, so how you argue he isn't is beyond me.

So much for lying low. This outburst will probably get me eaten early again!

[Joosbawx]

So much for lying low. This outburst will probably get me eaten early again!

((Perhaps...but more likely you'll be lynched for your belittling tone and know-it-all attitude. Of course, judging from history, even that won't save us for your epic posts about glorious strategies involving ambiguous statements of certainty, posturing, and ego stroking.

Quit talking ooc, please. Keep your quibbles to PM, and just play the game for goodness sake!

If I hear someone say meta-gaming one more time, I'm gonna lose it. All that you can count on in this game is voting records and who is killed when and how. That's it. Period. Any RP that's actually done is for the sole purpose of adding flavor to the game. So just play the game as it was intended, and quit imposing inane rules and infusing faulty logic. Just play, have fun, and enjoy yourselves. Please.))

[Madmal]

((occ:
well, this is obviously some misunderstanding due to the lack of details we have about the game specifically (like selrahc said about the werewolves), but well, i was just roleplaying, i was definatelyty sure i was going to be the first due to my character's "unfriedly" behavior and the (curious) tradition to automatically jump on the first opportunity it presents. I just wanted to take as much of what i can from the clues i was given...
and besides, who stated we're all low level?

also, Altharis, i also Love olives, and yes, no harsh feelings, mostly because i didn't thought this as a fight...

and lastly, any typo i made is due to my fast typing, and that English is not my natural tounge (and i like it that way)

As Joosbawx said, this is just a game....))

[Korith]

Oh, and Korith, or whoever it was found me suspicious because I suggested Malmagor was a werewolf in the first place, get real please. "Starting dissension" or whatever it was I was accused of?

Actually, I accused B-Man of trying to snowball your accusation. If memory serves, I called you an innocent who didn't realize what he was getting himself into.

EDIT: Okay, I looked on you with suspicion in my post...but then, in this stage everyone is looking at everyone with suspicion...save the wolves, and the masons if they exist.

[Tharj TreeSmiter]

So did we ever agree on a plurality margin that gets you lynched? Or will we decide each round?

[Korith]

The standing margin is 33%, with occasional Narrator intervention when it's "close enough".

Another question - this game will almost undoubtedly push through the last week of December (unless we really mash those wolves quick...), and people will likely be celebrating Christmas or other holidays away from home with no or limited internet access. Will the game pull a "Christmas break" and resume shortly thereafter? Would people want to take such a break? Should we just be a little more lax on the voting limits and autolynching?

[Silkenfist]

Sorry, but I couldn't post earlier due to time issues. Now that I've finished up reading the history, I'm pointing at Mal as well, because reading through the ton of non-game-essential-posts is a) painful and b) makes it harder for us (the good guys) to find the wolves. So even if he is no wolf, we might benefit from his death.

Oh, yeah...this translates roughly to:

A small wrinkled man steps up to the others, his crutch clutched tightly in terror. With a surprisingly high-pitched voice, he screams

A shapeshifter!! KILL THE BEAST!!

[Tharj TreeSmiter]

Well I know that I'll have internet throught my vacation, but others may not so I'm ok with a break.

((Let's be honest here, I'd say since the second game, someone's always practically volunteered to be the first victim of the mob since we've got nothing to base it on, so we need a way to create evidence...
Why since the second? Well, I sure as heck didn't make a choice to be the first lynched person in the first game (Hang on, can that be my claim to fame in Werewolf history? ) We've pretty much always had someone who's been 'odd' to take that first place for us.
I think the tradition of leaping on the first opportunity is that one person's as good as any other right now, so if something looks even too obvious, might as well call that bluff and start building evidence...))

[Altharis]

OOC:

Good! I'm just a bit nervous about this game, 'cos every game of Werewolf I've played has ended in a big screaming fight. I don't like arguments and I'm mostly non-confrontational, but politicy games like this can bring out the worst in me. So therefore I apologise beforehand if I go too far.

(I doubt it, but you never know)

I adore olives!!! just thinking about them gives me the smiles.

Its also true I believe that not a single one of the "First Lynchees" has been a werewolf.

I don't think this will break that tradition sadly.

[Alarra]

I've reopened up the werewolf registration thread if we want to discuss things such as holiday breaks and the like. So that it will not clutter up this thread. We will of course take into account people being gone for vacations.....if they let us know ahead of time....and then they will not be kicked out. Also....

Mod Goddess: Do recall that there is a rule against bringing baggage across threads, be they previous incarnations of the same game. As such, any more cracks about JX's ghostly behavior last game is not allowed. He apologized. Drop it. Or anything else of a similar manner.

Also I will point out that not necessarily all 'flavor text' is simply fluff and flavor text. In this round of werewolf, some of your actions will earn you special information or 'evidence' as you will.

[Mr. Moon]

OoC: I was just about to bring it up that having an OoC thread would be a good idea. But who needs one when we have Alarra? Thankies!

Also I will point out that not necessarily all 'flavor text' is simply fluff and flavor text. In this round of werewolf, some of your actions will earn you special information or 'evidence' as you will.

I'm not quite sure what this means. Would you please explain?
