Yes, but it would have to be days starting at people friendly times, so say 6pm-12pm ?

Maybe for future games, make it 6 hours(yippee :D), but keep it at that pace no matter what.

So if a day phase is from 5am-11am, the night phase will end at 5pm even if choices have been made.

This would give it a strict timeline and people would know when to be there.

Also i would love if people would keep out-of-thread opinions of people and other such meta elements out of it. It's a game, you're not forum member x in the thread :p

You can't just pretend people are total strangers every time you play. You have to filter the text through what you already think you know about how the person would react. it isn't an RPG, its just a forum game.

It works better when people don't try and role play to much. As Will said, you have to cut through what you think you know to what is really going on.

It's been said before, what happens in the game, stays in the game.

in a game like thi one, i preaty much agree with ch3t,
but in set theme games, to much game machanics ruins the ambience/mood
of the game, here role playing is good, and knowlage of "roles" should only be used to
decifer the mechanics that are going on but not actually spoken "it really does ruin it"

example: [theme wolf] mod spends alot of time setting up a story and enviroment
mod tells the players wich roles are present, "but players here need to remeber that although they know what a role is: their charactor does not!

now player xx is eaten by WW's all the other players know that this was done by a ww
"but when you look at it from the role playing charactor pov...all he'll know is James was eaten...by what i dont know (yet), this is what i must find out and kill! "enter mod clues here"

Actually i can, i read the things written, not who wrote it.

But even forgetting that, sometimes it goes a bit "meh" when you start saying things like "ch3t just being ch3t" or "toht being toht" and ignore what's written.

Once again it seems though, that the game did take a bit of a nosedive due to inactivity.

I nkow ch3t and me have had past experience with this, it's a bummerhummer V2.0

Tdc, based on the lack of people active today, I do think a 6 hour day you propose, in all its EXTREMENESS is the way forward. Quick, decisive posting and votes in without any pausing.

It makes me tempted to set up an IRC Werewolf Bot and a channel.

6 hours for sure, it was great until the last day. Would have been very different IMO if Jup and Will had been active later on.

Or just run some IRC games. Though it'll have to be after my exams.
