The only one Ive had any interaction with is Subby.....

Barkeep49 05-12-2009 07:13 AM

That's funny. I was going to meet Subby 9 years ago, but his wife ended up going into labor with their second child and thus I never have met the guy.

Danny 05-12-2009 07:14 AM

Or was it Subby that went into labor?

claphamsa 05-12-2009 07:14 AM

9 years...... wow!

Same here. Except for the one where I met that ardent enthusiast guy. Whatever happened to him, anyway? :p

Lathum 05-12-2009 08:31 AM

so are roles going out today or tomorrow?

Will make sense if you read the thread for an "Artist Formerly Known as ArdentEnthusiast vs Hoopsguy" throwdown.

You guys will never meet me since I'm just a figment of your imagination. The manifestation of your inner desires for ketchup porn.

It really depends on what happens with Abe's game this morning. I think maybe we should go with a day 1 deadline of thursday regardless of if the roles go out tonight or tomorrow. Everyone ok with that?

P.S. I like being GM and having the ability to edit my posts :)

Passacaglia 05-12-2009 08:50 AM

Just send out the roles now. Even if that game isn't over, are you guys actually doing anything?

Barkeep49 05-12-2009 08:51 AM

At this point Abe's game requires little attention. Basically it requires 30 seconds of work from me and the wolves every four hours. I would send out roles and get cracking whether we have a day 1 deadline of Thursday, or even tomorrow. I know some didn't want to start until that game has ended, but for 99% of the people it's over, even if they're still alive.

Yes, we are having pointless conversation. And I would really like one more sign up for this game. I made all those roles and I want to use them.

Barkeep49 05-12-2009 08:52 AM

DOLA - Just to be clear, I'm in favor of sending roles out today and having a deadline of tomorrow.

I thought you already had 20? You needed 21?

Danny 05-12-2009 08:52 AM

Ok, once we have our last signup I will send out roles. I know Schmidty was interested, so perhaps he'll fill the last spot.

20 was minimum, I could do it with 20, but would prefer 21 because I don't want to cut any of the roles.

Alan T 05-12-2009 09:23 AM

I feel like I was bait and switched! :)

Danny 05-12-2009 09:28 AM

To be fair, I removed the hunter role for something much more fun. It wouldn't have bothered me to cut the hunter, but I want this other role in ;)

Abe Sargent 05-12-2009 09:32 AM

I'm content with whatever

Danny 05-12-2009 09:52 AM

I see you lurking there Thomkal!

Thomkal 05-12-2009 09:57 AM

I know! Maybe this should be Used Car Salesman game instead of GT...

Danny 05-12-2009 10:12 AM

Shhh, don't spoil my next game!

Well, I've spent too much of my morning reviewing this game. For people who were not around back then, I would recommend just skipping ahead to Post #898 and reading that whole day, ending with Post #1114.

I think this is one of the most unusual days of voting I have ever seen in a game of werewolf. I am just about positive that something like that would not happen today, given our familiarity with each other and the pure number of games that we have all played. But, back then:
- it was only the 16th game on our forum
- AE/Poli and I had probably about 5-7 games each under our belts, not quite enough to cement reps that we now have, for better or worse
- not enough of these type of showdowns had emerged yet. Stuff like this has helped shape some of the logic that is accepted as "proper play" these days
- things were complicated by the "Lovers" role

All that said, this vote was an absolute stunner and really cannot be justified.

Either
A) They're a wolf trying to be forgotten
or
B) They're a villager not helping the cause

By not giving us anything to judge or link to, they're not only not helping the cause, they're hurting it.

Awesome to read this. Good to know this has been my philosophy for forever.

claphamsa 05-12-2009 11:21 AM

I require therapy after today!

Passacaglia 05-12-2009 11:22 AM

I think that was my second game ever. You villagers would have been a lot better off if you hadn't lynched the BG on Day 1! I think that wouldn't happen if the game were played now, but that's probably because we don't get as many fake reveals now as we did back then.

still catching up but I agree with this.

Lathum 05-12-2009 11:31 AM

hmm, I wonder why I didn't play in that game.

Passacaglia 05-12-2009 11:46 AM

Just finished reading that day. I'm glad there's no more talk of betting outside the game -- that really takes away the fun of the game. Pretty funny that lurker showed up in the middle of it and people started wigging out. I still need to get her in on a game -- maybe once she's finished her exam, I can convince her.

hoopsguy 05-12-2009 11:49 AM

For what it is worth, I popped for pizza at Silo's. AE/Poli, BK, and Pass were all there. We were in the middle of the next game and all of us knew that Pass was a wolf in that one and had fun messing with him around the table as the Texas/USC championship game played out on TV.

Danny 05-12-2009 11:54 AM

I'll get roles out tonight and we'll have our first lynch tomorrow.

Alan T 05-12-2009 11:58 AM

Just for the record, tomorrow I have to travel for work, so likely won't be on much. In fact if roles go out late tonight (after I leave for my softball game at 5pm ET), I might not even see my role until some point tomorrow.

So if I'm quiet, I obviously am a wolf, so lynch me first.

claphamsa 05-12-2009 11:59 AM

vote alan T!

Passacaglia 05-12-2009 12:00 PM

Thanks for owning up to it, Alan. Maybe Lathum started a new trend, where people will finally admit that they're wolves.

Do it now damnit!

It is always interesting to go back and read old threads and see how much strategy has evolved.

Word. If we're going to lynch tomorrow, might as well give us a full day. I know you're waiting for one more, but just give me two roles and be done with it already!

Danny 05-12-2009 12:04 PM

I PM'ed Schmidty, I should just sign him up now.

claphamsa 05-12-2009 12:04 PM

I can sign in as hannibal as well if you like :)

Lathum 05-12-2009 12:04 PM

I texted Saldana, just waiting to hear back from him

You lost your password. Saldana would be great though.

I lost it on my home computer.. Im at work, and can just pop it up here :P
