    OK I never played a game that started with a Lynch before so that's something new. No harm anyway, but it will be a shot in the dark unless someone slips up badly or we spot the Trump challenge.

    One thing we really need to avoid is a huge bandwagon on one person for a stupid reason. It's crazy and almost certainly allows the wolves to hide as the chances of getting that lucky on turn 1 are pretty much nil.

    Personally I'd be in favour of a hidden vote that everyone says nothing and we make our own choice then justify it after the kill. Wolves hate that **** because they panic if they don't know if they're at risk and won't chance a sneaky vote on another wolf.

    The only risk is killing a pv but at this stage it's unlikely.

    another query for the mods...."There will be some twists tied into the number 5 in the game"

    can you guys shed any sort of light on this? or anyone have any ideas on what it means?

    despite crosstownks best efforts - taking over from Tigger?

    Any craic? Any weekend plans?

    I don't think I'll ever posses Tiggers ability to spot roles :o

    I'll have a few pints tonight. No other weekend plans after that.

    On the blind/secret vote thing. I'm up for it simply because I don't think we've done it before and as Jayop said, it won't be of any benefit to the wolves.

    Jayop's blind voting makes sense when put like that. What happens if there is a draw in the lynch vote?

    Depends on the mod, nothing in the OP about it. When I run games I always have the last vote as the tie breaker but others do the first vote and in some games they even run off the people who are tied in a fresh vote against each other.

    Could probably do with that being clarified.

    I concur with jayop and cross, especially given the lynch precedes the first munch.

    As it stands so far, I'd be just picking a name out of hat anyway.

    Tie Breaker Rules

    In the event of a tie in the lynch voting, voting will reopen for another 30 minutes to see if a decision can be reached. If after 30 minutes there is still no outright winner, then the last vote received will be the tie breaker

    Nah, I think that everyone should have to give a reason after the lynch as to why they voted for a person. That will give us some evidence to work with later in the game. People just saying they choose at random tells us nothing.

    Tie Breaker Rules

    lol cheers! I read the first few rules there quickly and assumed the tie-breaker rule if there was one would be next to the rules on the lynch vote timing.

    I think the blind vote thing tied in with the tie breaker rules could be good.

    If there are a few people with the same number of votes we've got a 30 minute window to discuss the "shortlist" and why those people were pinged as suspicious and decide from there as to who to bring to the gallows

    And excel spreadsheet set up to track this game. Luckily it's not as complex as the last one!
    Couple of questions on the rules/roles though.

    In the last game, the seer only got told if someone was good or evil. The intro says
    1 x Seer - The seer is the leader of the village. They have the ability to peek one player every night, and they will be told the role of the peeked player.

    Does this mean they get told the actual role this time?

    Lee Harvey Oswald
    Lee Harvey Oswald/Vigilante gets 2 bullets. Their task is to take out Donald Trump, they may choose at whatever time they wish their victim to die - it does not have to be during the nighttime phase. The Vigilante may not disclose their identity on thread before he successfully kills Trump. If the Vigilante shoots twice and misses Trump both times their identity will be revealed putting them in jeopardy.

    Who does their identity get revealed to? The whole village or just the werewolves?
    I don't know if that would put them in jeopardy though? If they have used their 2 bullets already, the wolves now know who they are, and they are no longer an imminent danger to them? And they are a known quantity to the village too...

    There is no difference at all having a lynch first. There has been deaths, just not live player ones. I don't get what the problem is. I have seen about 45 games + played this way with the first action being a lynch.

    No, No I fully agree, I am just saying that at this moment in time I have next to zilch in terms of suspicion... but it's a long way to the lynch unless things get sped up.

    But picking a name out of a hat might be the only reason I (and others) may have.

    Either that or a low/zero poster. There isn't a shred of evidence against anyone at the moment.

    I have no problem with it at all, it's your game and your rules!!

    I was just saying that I've never seen it done this way before as the motivation for the first lynch is as revenge for the slaughter and trying to figure out who would have killed the person slaughtered is a good clue to use to pick the lynch target.

    I'm cool for school to do it your way though!

    The role of the person the seer peeks is told to them. You will also find out the roles of the dead as it happens.

    I will leave the second one for you guys to work out :)

    You'll have about 36 hours of posting so surely everyone will be able to come up with something better than picking someone at random. A low poster is a reason, not a great one but better than picking someone from a hat.

    Surely someone will do something you think could be a task, someone will behave different to previous games, someone will do something in the day and a half leading to the lynch to give you a tiny reason.

    Well even if Lee is only revealed to Trump/wolves, they should come out to us. There's not much point in the wolves having access to info we don't have. Obviously they'd need to outline the reasons for killing who they did.

    I think that they'd be revealed to everyone anyway, that was how I read it the first time.
