Return of the Werewolves: Grotto Labyrinth

[turgy22]

Good game, everyone!

Actually, Ransac didn't really sacrifice himself so much as I turned on him. But he was still part of a winning team, so who cares? It was really apparent that he was the target for day two and I didn't want to be the only one not voting for him. So I jumped on Melkor's vote early, hoping that I could at least blend in with the crowd. Mooseman's long-delayed votes, plus not voting Ransac, really made him a prime suspect for the second werewolf. And since rokapoke had been following every other vote I cast, it seemed logical to keep those two around for the final day.

I'd also like to make a general note that I choose my characters before getting my roles, so the "Catman" persona wasn't done as a cover for being a werewolf. I just did it to be funny. I like the role-playing aspect of this game the most, but I know it's going to bite me in the rear the next time we play.

So who was the seer? Obviously not Rokapoke or Mooseman.

I think this was fun, but I definitely wish we had a few more players. Active players, especially. By the time I got a feel for anything (not a good enough feel, though, obviously), there were only a few people left.

 

[turgy22]

I definitely agree there. I think we had 9 people to start, which is right on the borderline of making a playable game. Ideally, we'd get 13+ people to participate, which makes things a lot more fun.

 

[Spiderman]

Oh, I thought it was a planned strategy between you two

Well, obviously I didn't get to play since I was chosen as the first to be hanged and I was gone anyway. But it was interesting and funny to read everything when I got back... Catman was great

 

[Ransac]

It was kind of a planned strategy... on the fly planned. This is the second time I've played the "really scared" guy in Werewolves and both times you guys assumed I was the wolf because of it (even though I wasn't the first time). After it became obvious that Melkor was hellbent on hanging me, turgy22 decided that "for the good of the team," one of us winning was better than both of us getting hung for the sake of defending the other and I agreed. We still discussed strategy after I was ousted, though.


Ransac, cpa trash man

 

[Melkor]

I was the Seer for this game. The first day I was just accusing Ransac for the fun of it, after the first night though, I was sure. I also found that Mooseman was not the werewolf but was subsequently killed. It was definitely a "Curses!" moment, knowing that Mooseman would probably be hanged.

 

[turgy22]

Glad I killed you then.

 

[Melkor]

I believe we had 8 players and a narrator, we really need 2 more people to make the game work.

What I was really sweating was day two. It would have been all over if we hadn't gotten a werewolf that day. It turned out to be kind of inactive because I knew Ransac was a wolf, I accused him and then got two more votes. I didn't really want to say anything because I was afraid it would unbalance things. If there had been a little more leeway I might have tried to mix things up and flush out the other wolf.

 

[Mooseman]

I can't get on as much as I could before and was a little surprised that it added to the game.....hmmmmmm
I also was purposefully errant in the final discussion to see who would catch me out..... I really had no idea who was the wolf...
Although I did say that the wolf may have kicked Ransac to the curb..... alas, I was defending myself against the wrong person.....

I was surprized that it was down to 3 people so fast.... we need a few more for the next one. I'll be on most every night.

I like the role-playing aspect, but didn't do it this time.
I am so ashamed.....

 

[Ransac]

I don't consider it being kicked to the curb. Melkor had his sights set on me pretty hard (seerly evident) and we decided the greater good was to see every villager get dismembered.

I just want to point out that I suspected both of the wolves right from the beginning, and then wasn't even killed by them. Thanks for turning on me guys Seriously, though, I suspected at least one of those two because of how they jumped onto my acusation as a chance to vote for me. I wonder if I hadn't been hung if I would have survived the night anyway.
