I've observed from the outside looking in on this one, and if there was any spaces left I'd like to have a go if possible.
Para paranoia now there is a blast from the past. Happiness is mandatory. The computer is your friend.
another game seems good. I still consider myself a novice after 6 or 7 games, but you learn so much each time you play
For anyone who's never run one before, it's great fun if you've got the time. I'm quite tempted to do it myself...
Yeah I've now played 3 and run 1 and still find it difficult. First game I ever played I was killed on night 1!!! Running it does help you learn the game more.
I've only had a "role" once, all the other times I have been a villager. Unfortunately the wolf named me as evil on the 1st day and I was lynched ! Still I had my 1 day in the sun
I'm not playing in the next game unless I'm a wolf, guardian, seer, tinker, harlot and martyr....I think I just voted myself to be lynched on day one...
Likewise, my first was 2 years ago and I got eaten by 2 wolves on the first night. This year I was evil for the first time, it's definitely more enjoyable being in team evil, but as you said yesterday beta must be a tricky role, traitor was great fun as I got to control the game on the last day.
If you don't manage to lynch yourself on day 1 then you'll probably kill yourself on night 1... unless you guard yourself... or you're out...
it would be good to get a couple of new players involved as well. I reckon @J.B @IRB @hornetboy1 would also do well. Plus we didn't have Moog, UEA , TVOR or ac ouple of others this time either
I'll run another if people want. Someone else mentioned they could help with write ups didn't they? If Opti wishes to have a break from doing that. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk
Soo... if you do play everyone now knows that you'll have a special role. That wont go well for you! Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk
The write ups are a nice touch but you really don't need them. Just a very small paragraph is more than enough.
Fresh in the mind of fooling the whole village on day 1, I don't think I'm going to last long in this game.
I have been summoned! How much time does this require? Is it something which needs daily input? I wouldn't want to hold things up if I can't commit
it does take quite a bit of time and you need to take an active part on every day that you are alive. A lot is reading through what others have posted to keep yourself up to date In theory you need to be logical, although that generally goes out of the window quite early on day 1 !
95% of the messages are no more than a couple of sentences. If you have a desk job then you can keep abreast by checking every half an hour or so. Most days apart from day 1 there may be one or two people discussing the previous night's eliminations then it can be fairly quiet until the anonymous messages arrive. I suggest you have an idle skim through the last couple of games to get an idea of what to expect but the first game you play will be a learning curve.
Meant to ask you, was it intentional on Day 3 last time when you confirmed PJ and Opti as good in the second message, or was it a mistake? I presumed it was a mistake at the time but then thought it might have been to spell it out clearly to your fellow wolf who to attack. Either way, it worked out very well because CB pretty much gave himself up as the Guardian after that!
It was a calculated gamble. Too many on team good were confident which message was which and were voting accordingly, so I thought I'd change tack. It isn't standard wolf behaviour, but in my eyes giving up a few of team good at such an early stage was not that big a problem, as you say it gave the other wolf a few possibilities to pick from. I intentionally selected CB as I was quite confident that he was seemed good (couldn't know for sure he would be very good however), and I knew the beta would pick him off.
