Werewolf Central X: Important WW information goes here - READ OPENING POSTS!

[banjo1985]

Sweet. Also, are Death, Eldritch Knight, etc...still around?

EK still appears for Classic, from what I've seen. Alarra too.

[Lex-Kat]

I haven't seen Death in a long time. I think the last time we saw him, was when you Narrated WWC XI: Origins.

And Shadow has been Banned.

[DungeonMaster77]

Gah. I wish I could ask what that was all about, but I know it's against the rules, so I'll leave it be. Well, then, I will get a recruiting post ready (but not up) for when I can start one. It should be a good time.

[Cuthalion]

Is Lord of the Rings going to happen?

It... gerh.

Next time I'm seriously typing things up before I schedule a game.

On that note does 3 weeks sounds like it'd be long enough? Not counting recruitment?

[Lex-Kat]

I'll give you my slot, and you can begin recruitment once Classic XIX starts.

[Penguinator]

I will be out of town with only possible internet for the next week.

[banjo1985]

I did already take the early August slot for World of Darkness II, didn't I?

[Lex-Kat]

Of course you did. Sheesh! What did you think, I forgot my favorite werewolf narrator? I'm insulted.

[DungeonMaster77]

banjo! Good to see you too!

@Lex-Kat: Where is the current schedule posted for Classic?

Edit: Found it. That said, you have me down for the WW Classic game I am supposed to wait to finish? I'm confused...

Edited Edit: @Lex-Kat: Thank you, so very much, for graciously allowing me to have your Classic slot!

What is the name of the current classic game, anybody know?

[Lex-Kat]

There is no Classic game running at the moment. I just asked that you wait `til next week to start recruiting to give Phantom's "Phantom of the Opera WW" game to get a chance to get some players, that was all.

And you're welcome.

[DungeonMaster77]

Ahh. Gotcha. That's fine.

Wait a minute...are you telling me that the interest in WW games has diminished to that point, where people are having problems filling a game?

What the heck happened to the 30-40 player monstrosities we used to have?

***Looks around for Alarra and Zeb the Troll***

ALARRA!! ZEB!! WHAT HAPPENED?!

On that note, I have a few PM's to send...

[Lex-Kat]

For certain narrators, the older players come out of the woodwork to play. See Classic XVIII, with B-Man at the helm. Plenty of players there.

[Cuthalion]

Thanks for shifting my slot, Lexie. Nevertheless, it is an unfortunate fact that I will be gone for some time this summer and will not be able to run a game during that time. However, that open spot beginning the 19th looks just about perfect. I might put up the recruitment a month in advance as I can't do it while I'm gone, answer a few questions when I return and fire it up.

[Lex-Kat]

Also note the spoiler below the schedule. It shows the last 10 completed games. It shows when they were completed and who won. Half of them died before really finishing, and one was left unresolved. That's not even mentioning the games that don't make it past recruitment, which is still happening. Which is why I ask everyone to schedule, even Classic narrators, and the schedule is for two weeks at a time.

I wonder if we should lengthen the time out further, to three weeks per opening.

[DungeonMaster77]

Wow...just...wow. Okay, well, let's see if I can bring back a few old-timers. I recently spoke to a...departed friend...and he told me about one of the games that went terribly with accusations of blatant cheating and such. It made me so sad to hear that this thing that we created was just...gah...

Oh, well. In any case, I PM'd some of the old-timer players and I hope they will join.

Are you going to play Lex?

[banjo1985]

*waves hello at DM77*

Bad blood in games is still relatively rare from what I've seen, fortunately. Then again, I have done my invisible man impression at least three times since I last saw you here on the forum.

A WW Classic is probably the only game that can bank on more than 20 players nowadays, so I doubt you'll have too much trouble getting a decent player base. 40 player games are a thing of the past it seems.

[Lex-Kat]

Most definitely.

[Duck999]

40 player games are a thing of the past it seems.

A thing that has not existed since Toystory.
How many did Catfight have?

[banjo1985]

Oh...you're good. Where's the dog from Duck Hunt when you need him?

31, I believe. Cristo's last Fears game got 55, but nothing's got near that since.

[Duck999]

How many did Toy Story have? At least 40, I think.

Though no need for Duck Hunting. I was voted for outside this subform before my first game even began, IIRC.

[Ramsus]

*snaps fingers* Well there goes the Duck Hunt werewolf idea.

[Duck999]

*snaps fingers* Well there goes the Duck Hunt werewolf idea.

Go ahead and use it, as long as I am on the ducks team. Actually, the non-ducks teams so no one suspects it. But now they do expect it, so put me on the duck team. But now they think that, so don't...

[Ramsus]

Naw, the cat's out of the bag now. It was just gonna be you as the only wolf and seeing how long it took everyone else to realize.

[Duck999]

Naw, the cat's out of the bag now. It was just gonna be you as the only wolf and seeing how long it took everyone else to realize.

...Yes. YES. YEEEEES.
I once thought about having everyone think they were a disconnected wolf, with no villagers, and their real role was not revealed when they died.

[Legato Endless]

How many did Toy Story have? At least 40, I think.

45 10 Characters

[Haruki-kun]

My advice with the current audience size is to plan a game whose size is flexible. Hope for 40+, but be ready for 25. The last game I ran has 29 players, but I was hoping for 40.

[Ramsus]

Core Component has ended

Edit: Thoughts and comments are welcome even from people who didn't play.

[Eldritch Knight]

Welcome Back, DM77.

When you get the game going, of course I'l be there!

[DungeonMaster77]

I liked the "invisible man impersonation" comment, banjo...hehe.

Thanks, EK. I've missed you guys. I sent PM's out to the usual suspects, and so far only a few responses. Hopefully a recruiting post will get things going more. For those of you who know all those who played "back in the day" get the word out for me, as you all know, better than I, where they currently haunt.

These would include:

Atreyu the Masked Llama
Zeb the Troll
Alarra
wxdruid
and any others whom I can't remember that aren't here.

Of course, this won't be an exclusive game, and any and all will be welcome. This will be a "back to our roots" type of game, at least, what I'd like.

[Lex-Kat]

Just for those interested, Playground Squares is once again recruiting Contestants (1 space left) and Squares.
