Welcome to the SUBSIM Werewolf Hunt
The Backstory
Darkness, shadows, stretching from the medieval tower known as Nightwatch all the way to the small village, Vanvikan. A nearly full moon rose over the highest spire of the tower, casting its eerily fateful light onto the village below.
And this is where we begin. You, each of the players, are members of a U-boat resupply station in wintery Norway, just across 9 miles of fjord north of Trondheim. You are guarding a secret fuel depot, resupplying U-boats, and some of you are U-boat crews resting after an arduous patrol. There were rumors of a disease spreading through the nearby village of Vanvikan. A plague. Some said it was the disease of the wolves: that at night, when the moon was full, a man would be turned into something else - an abomination, neither man nor wolf, but a terrifying creature of death. And they said it was the tower, Nightwatch, from where the plague came.
So here you are. The madness has begun - there is no way to leave the base until the nightmare ends. No one who ventures into the woods surrounding the base ever returns. And so you are trapped. No one knows who to trust, anyone could be infected with the disease. Your goal now is simply to survive.
Getting Started
The object of this game is to survive, and make sure your team survives. The first step is, obviously, to create your character.
There is a difference between creating a character for this game and most others: your character's class and abilities are secret. You will notify me by posting here that you are in the game. I will add your name to the player list. Once we have enough people (10 minimum, 20 is preferrable) I will give it another day or two and then close signups. Once this happens, the game will begin. Please note that you have to sign up BEFORE the game starts - once we're playing, you cannot join. Also, if you post regularly in the GT forum, your participation is strongly encouraged.
Once I have everyone's names, I put them in a random class generator of my own design. Everyone will be assigned a team and class randomly and I will PM you with your ID. The teams and classes are listed below:
The Humans
Human - Your normal, average human. This class receives no special powers, but they do get one bonus: for every three humans that vote to lynch the same person, they receive one extra vote. This makes teamwork among humans important.
Seer - The Seers are a special brand of human. Each night, they can check ONE person's alignment, to see if they are a human or a werewolf.
Guardian - The Guardians are armed humans. They're the closest thing our little band of survivors has to defense. Each night, they choose one person to protect. If that person is attacked by a werewolf, the Guardian will protect them and the werewolf is beaten back, without the Guardian or the person he is protecting being killed.
The Werewolves
Werewolf - The normal Werewolf is a terrifying beast. Each night, they choose one person to attack. If that person is not being protected by a Guardian, the werewolf will kill them. Bear in mind that werewolves can kill other wolves, if they aren't careful.
Hellhound - The Hellhound is a particularly nasty breed of werewolf, capable of overpowering even a human Guardian. These choose one person to attack each night, just as a normal werewolf does. However, if that person is a Guardian, they are killed just as if they were a normal human. Or if that person is being protected by a Guardian, BOTH players are killed. If, by chance, the Hellhound attacks someone defended by TWO Guardians, the Hellhound randomly kills one of the three players (The attackee, or one of the two Guardians).
Playing The Game
Playing The Werewolf Game is simple. The game is divided into two segments, the Day cycle and the Night cycle. As the moderator of the game, I will post in the thread when the Day cycle starts and when the Night cycle starts. Bear in mind that your alignment, wolf or human, and your class are secret. Only you know who you are and what your abilities are.
During the Day cycle, everyone is in their human form. During this time, the players may argue and debate as much as they want about who they believe is a werewolf. Bluffing, lying, and trickery is permitted. During this time, they discuss who they think may have been at the scene of the last killing, who should have seen something, who was missing and unaccounted for.... Then I will call for a vote on who they wish to lynch. The person who receives the most votes is lynched by the mob, and, being dead and all, is out of the game.
During the Night cycle, the werewolf players become hideous monsters bent on killing every human player in the game.
* Each werewolf will send me a PRIVATE MESSAGE saying who they wish to attack,
* while Seers tell me who they wish to search to find out if they are a wolf or not,
* and Guardians send me a message saying who they want to protect.
Once all the messages are in, or the time limit is up (typically 12 hours), I put together the results and post what happened during the night. Any unprotected human who was attacked by a wolf will be killed, the Seers will be private messaged the results of their search (what they do with this information is entirely up to them.). And then the Day cycle begins again, and the players must decide who they believe is a wolf and lynch them.
I will post each time the cycle changes from Day to Night, and back to Day. During the Day, the players may discuss (or argue, spazz, rant) who they want to kill. You must all vote before the specified time limit is up (about 12 hours), and the member with the most votes is lynched. I will then begin the night cycle, which works as described above.
The objective of the game is simple: If you're human, kill all the wolves so your team survives. If you're a wolf, kill all the humans so your team survives.
Remember, it is vital that you never reveal your team alignment or class to anyone. For example, a Seer cannot post, "I'm a Seer. Kill this person." Even if someone does post their ID or PM you for an alliance or to share info, you have no way of knowing if it is true and accurate. However, they can argue to try and kill that person. Convince others to see your side. Manipulate them for your own ends. Your survival is in your quick words.
Post here if you want to get in this game of mayhem, trust, distrust, and appearances.
Good luck.

Hoorays! I've played this game before, but they called it mafia. Personally, I think Italians are cooler than werewolves, but whatever it's fun
Also, I'm nitpicking, but the only reason no one returns from the woods is because they want to get as far away from the town as possible.

Good response so far, I've updated the backstory a bit:

And this is where we begin. You, each of the players, are members of a U-boat resupply station in wintery Norway, just across 9 miles of fjord north of Trondheim.

The new story almost reminds me of The Thing for some reason, lol...
We often play a version of this game in norway but we call it "Mafia". Essesially the mafia kills people, the detective can check alignment and the humans are pray and vote for lynching like here. It is very fun in real life, though I have never tried it online.

Alrighty then, the roster for Kamp Letzte Jagd is full.
Keep an eye on your Private Message box for your rank and alignments.
One of you will be the Kamp Kommandant, another will be the U-Boat Kapitan in port. The rest will be officers, enlisted men, and a few villagers.
While most of you will be human, some of you will be werewolves, Seers, Guardians, and a Hell hound. None of you will know for sure who is what, only I will know. So if someone PMs you and says "I'm a Seer, Johnny is a werewolf, lynch him!" you will not know if that is true or a lie :)
The only way to kill a werewolf is by voting to kill someone in the day and he turns out to be a werewolf.
Technically the Kamp Kommandant outranks everyone, but the U-Boat Kapitan is responsible for his men and boat.
This is the thread to ask questions about procedure and game issues.
Good hunting!

The only way to kill a werewolf is by voting to kill someone in the day and he turns out to be a werewolf.
Also, it bears worth repeating, that everyone will be acting like they are human in the daily discussions. Werewolves are human form during the day and will certainly try to disguise their true nature and get the real humans to lynch another non-werewolf. During the day, humans, and werewolves disguised as humans, and seers and guardians will all discuss the previous night's events (use imagination), and all will vote who to send to the firing squad.
The Kamp Kommandant will be assigning his men to guard duty at night, and working with the U-Boat Kapitan and Mayor to guard the village and base.

Okay, here's a question.
We know that regular humans (that is, not Guardians, Seers, or wolves) get an additional vote per every three votes.
However...
Let's say that A, B, and C all agree to lynch someone. If they're all humans, that's four votes. Okay. But under any other circumstance, they'll only get three votes, which means that an outside observer could conclude that one of them is not a human.
Now, given enough time, enough results, enough different groupings, might it not be possible to narrow it down to one of the three, and even conclude if they're a werewolf or a human (not possible to determine specific classes, of course, by this method) through vote-counting/analysis?
On one hand, that could be metagaming. On the other, it wouldn't be realistic to conceal the number of votes cast in total. So how's the voting going to go? Secret ballots, open voting, or something else?

Okay, here's a question.
We know that regular humans (that is, not Guardians, Seers, or wolves) get an additional vote per every three votes.
However...
Let's say that A, B, and C all agree to lynch someone. If they're all humans, that's four votes. Okay. But under any other circumstance, they'll only get three votes, which means that an outside observer could conclude that one of them is not a human.
Now, given enough time, enough results, enough different groupings, might it not be possible to narrow it down to one of the three, and even conclude if they're a werewolf or a human (not possible to determine specific classes, of course, by this method) through vote-counting/analysis?
On one hand, that could be metagaming. On the other, it wouldn't be realistic to conceal the number of votes cast in total. So how's the voting going to go? Secret ballots, open voting, or something else?
Good point!
Hmmm. voting will be open ballot, let me think over the additional vote thing, that may be tricky.

It seems to me that the proper thing for a responsible Oberfeldewebberebble to do right now would be to detail a couple of men to clean up the body and then transport it to someone who could autopsy it. But, we don't have a doctor, so would you provide the autopsy results somehow since you're the moderator or what, do I just make them up?

Onkel Neal

Good question. Since the first attack was a game opener, and no player werewolf did it, we will let the game roll on another 12 hours or so, and then the NIGHT cycle will begin without a lynch vote. It will be night for about 12 hours real time, to give the werewolves, GUARDIANS, AND SEERS time to respond to my PM.
So, carry on, I will post when it is night, and then tomorrow it will be day again and the first lynching can begin.

02-09-09, 01:26 AM
Never mind, I've found it.
Okay, using Trondheim as my reference, and using the NOAA sunrise/sunset calculator (http://www.srrb.noaa.gov/highlights/sunrise/sunrise.html): for Feb 8 1945, local sunset is 3:56 PM. Just about 1400hrs, in other words...and sunrise isn't until 7:57AM, or almost 0800.
It's going to be a looooong night, literally and figuaratively.
Say whaaat? I really doubt that, I live in Aalesund, a bit south of Trondheim, and we have sunset around 18.00 -19.00 I guess.
PS: I say I guess because I am nocturnal. (Noooo, I am not a werewolf ... or am I?)

As long as you read all the posts in the story thread, you will not have any problem keeping up. Any changes in Day/Night cycle will be highlighted by me, the Narrator. I will also announce time to vote for lynchings, etc. You can't miss them :)
If a WW attacks another WW, no one is killed. The attacking WW does not know why his victim lives, he can assume he was a WW or he was protected by a guardian.
And I take it the attacks will not be known? I mean, only the guys killed by a ww will be publicited? Mmmm I guess this game will involve simply luck....it is difficult to extract conclusions or make succesive estimations of who is doing what :hmmm:

Dang, man, read the rulez! (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=147914) :haha:
Guardian - The Guardians are armed humans. They're the closest thing our little band of survivors has to defense. Each night, they choose one person to protect. If that person is attacked by a werewolf, the Guardian will protect them and the werewolf is beaten back, without the Guardian or the person he is protecting being killed.
The Hellhound is a particularly nasty breed of werewolf, capable of overpowering even a human Guardian. These choose one person to attack each night, just as a normal werewolf does. However, if that person is a Guardian, they are killed just as if they were a normal human. Or if that person is being protected by a Guardian, BOTH players are killed. If, by chance, the Hellhound attacks someone defended by TWO Guardians, the Hellhound randomly kills one of the three players (The attackee, or one of the two Guardians).
Or one person dies and the other goes into a coma.

Okay, I probably deserved that.
What I meant, however, was that: can the Guardian protect himself if he is targeted? Obviously not against a Hellhound, but if a regular werewolf decides to go for someone who is himself a Guardian, then I assume the werewolf gets beaten off, correct?
Ex: Take players A, B, and C. C is a werewolf; A is a guardian, and B is a regular human. Let's say that A protects B. Then if C goes for B, nobody dies, of course. But if C goes for A, does the same apply?

Does a werewolf have to attack every night? So for instance, we've so far had two players KIA...which would indicate two wolves, assuming that it's not a Guardian/Guardee combination that got hit by a Hellhound.
But could a werewolf decide to lie low for a night or two, just to screw with everyone's heads? In that case, there's suddenly the possibility of three, maybe up to four wolves...:o

A Guardian cannot be killed by a werewolf, if he is attacked or if he is protecting someone and they are attacked. Only two things can kill a Guardian. One is a Hell Hound, can you guess the other? :hmmm:
By now, Contact's fate should tell you the other way a Guardian can meet his demise.:rotfl:

I would love to, but schedules just don't make it that easy. My schedule, because I have to administer parts of the game, and the players, because they are in so many time zones and they all have varying schedules. If I set the story clock to real time, there will be people who do not get to vote or participate. I could synch it with my schedule, but if we make it a 24 day, that would make it impossible for some people to participate in all the activities.
Ok, strike all that... Will this work?
CST
8am to 6pm Day begins, discussion for 10 hours, role-playing, then votes for lynching must be submitted by 5pm
6pm to 8pm lynch vote counted, execution carried out

midnight to 2am lynch vote counted, execution carried out
2am to 2pm Night begins, seers, guardians, wolves PM their actionsNow, what I expect could happen, there are people who cannot play with a 24 hour clock, that's why the game has been stretching each story day into 24+ hours, but I'm willing to give it a go, as long as no one says "that won't work for me". Oh, and as long as no one gets mad at me if we go off schedule once or twice :)
I use this clock (http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/info/current-time.htm) as GMT

If a guardian manages to successfully protect someone, who knows it? The Guardian, of course, and the attacker, but does the attacked know about it?
If a werewolf attacks someone and they are not killed, then he has to assume:
1. The person was protected by a guardian
2. The person WAS a guardian.
Bear in mind that werewolves can kill other wolves, if they aren't careful.

As long as they keep lynching guardians, yeah, :haha: Just kidding.
The game is more balanced than it appears, it is not in the wolves' favor. Last night the wolves hit people who were not protected, not guardians, and also not wolves, so all their attacks were fatal. Tonight, the wolves may attack people they cannot kill, they do not know the status of the people they attack.
The humans are very reluctant to lynch and don't really question each other in public, so they are having trouble lynching the right people. What some of the players are learning is that when you question each other in PM, you cannot benefit from the group scrutiny.
Also, as the wolves kill off humans, and the humans lynch people, wolf or human, the overall number of people diminishes and increases the odds of lynching a wolf. :03:
So bring me some light into this poor mind of mine...
Is it night time now or day time..
The damn Country GMTs anoying thing, can never figure out if its day or night...:haha:
In the story, as of this posting, it is still day.
Will postpone the deadline for this day's lynch vote until 6PM Central time/7PM Eastern/4PM Pacific/Midnight GMT
We are going to attempt to standardize the activity times as follows, let me know in this Q&A thread (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=147914)if some part of this will not work for you.
CST
8am to 6pm Day begins, discussion for 10 hours, role-playing, then votes for lynching must be submitted by 5pm. You can vote to lynch any time in the period, but best to wait as late as possible, so it's better to discuss for the first few hours and vote close to the deadline (say, within an hour of the deadline).
6pm to 8pm lynch vote counted, execution carried out
8pm to 8am Night begins, seers, guardians, wolves PM their actions. I will accept PMs a couple hours in advance if you need to.
GMT
2pm to midnight Day begins, discussion for 10 hours, role-playing, then votes for lynching must be submitted by 11pm. You can vote to lynch any time in the period, but best to wait as late as possible, so it's better to discuss for the first few hours and vote close to the deadline (say, within an hour of the deadline).
midnight to 2am lynch vote counted, execution carried out

I think that you missed something out though...something...important in your binocular picture of yon 'wolf:

Oh, and regarding my fortress in the East Tower, it's just an old man trying to protect himself. Against a real wolf, I don't think it'd work very well, but old Oberon still won't believe in Wolvies, although Nokias death at the Inn has got him somewhat concerned.
It's gonna be another long night up in yonder tower at the MG42. :ping:

Honestly, Neal hasn't described anywhere about the murder areas being cleaned, nor have the officers. It really doesn't help my character through his jumpyness when patrol means trudging through a landscape of random body parts before climbing up a bloody ladder, and sitting a rancid tower.

Of course they are cleaned. I do it myself each day so my wonderful Gemeiners don't have to. :D

If I die, I am going to change my location to:
Well, a bit of me in ___'s stomach, the rest in the graveyard, a few pieces by the fuel tanks, and the intestines draped off the tower.

I always scroll back to where I left off last night and read up to the latest post to get the gist of what's going on.
When I searched the well, Neal sent me a PM to inform me that Lesraes body was down there, so I broke the news in the RP.
How Lesrae died, who shot him and why, are questions that Gefreiter Colum-erm-Oberon, is trying to sort out...and he's looking to speak to someone who was brandishing a silver luger, silver knife and silver bullets two days ago.... :hmmm:
And this, ladies and gentleman, is the way to play an RPG!:salute:
I planted a clue, and if anyone decided to look in the well, I would send the info by PM so the storyline could develop. NOTE that Oberon did not look in the well and declare lesrae's body was there...he said he saw something. I rewarded that with the find of the poor missing sheperd's corpse.

Some reward :DL
Looking at the victims list, I wonder if people realise that this is predominantly a subsimming community....especially when you consider the fact that the majority of innocent victims are submariners :hmmm: :DL

Yes, we are all actually ardent Heer fanboys, and want to replace Neal and his site with "soldiersim.com" :cool:
Oh how I wish I had that smiley who rubs his hands menacingly..

Hmmmm... ok, it is night and will remain so until 8am Central Standard time Thursday. I hope someone will give poor Letum some beer and love, he has been through a lot lately. For a fellow military man who was badly injured, he sure seems neglected :)

We began as a bunch of kids, sleeping in an old abandoned beach house, eating sardines, cheese, and crackers, drinking Dr Pepper, playing Wolfpack on a caseless Commodore 64 we got from a pawn shop, waiting for our big break
A wee bit off topic but, Again ... How did you kids afford the electricity. :haha: :haha: :haha:
Electrics were free on those days...:D

@ Neal That part about getting approval from you to "enhance " storyline character also was not broughtup in the begining.
The damage has already been done.
Don't be so hard on me, this is for fun:shucks:
Very Super Market[/B] ] Very Super Market votes for Gorduz, but makes his displeasure at guard duty very obvious whilst doing so. He also points out a plot error. Neal is presumably displeased
What? What did you point out? I missed it.
I will point out you still have not completed the "rest of Day 2"...:O:
Rest of Day 2

And PLEASE quit posting essays. Get to the point and let us respond.
And will make it easier to catch up when we come back to the game.
The more people write the more likely they are to implicate themselves. I've only posted twice so far, but I'll keep it short from now on. I don't think reducing the volume or length of posts will make it easier to lynch the werewolves though.

Posting essays is ok, as long as they don't try to hijack the plot. The only thing I find difficult is when a player makes up whole conversations with other players, in his post. It's better to interact with other players in the forum, not script out their dialogue.

Actually, when Neal started, he had to start with cardboard and no electrics because it had not yet been invented...

I'm pretty sure I answered this question last week: we had a generator hooked up to a stationary bike and we took turns cranking out the juice...
