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.

Electrics were free on those days...

The damage has already been done.

Don't be so hard on me, this is for fun

What? What did you point out? I missed it.

I will point out you still have not completed the "rest of Day 2"...

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.

PM the vote if you are away from the keyboard later, mate. You don't want to miss this execution.

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...

The werewolves are winning. The next lynch vote will be important. Time for the humans to get their act together.

Time for a geek confession: I actually used to be a DM on a Neverwinter Nights server. One of the big no-no's when posting role play on the server forums was to make up dialogue for other characters. You're essentially taking the character from them when you do.

Ouch

Seems the casualty count has been rising by 1 every day...

Of course the werewolves are winning. Trying to figure out who is a wolf and who isn't is like trying to pour smoke through a keyhole.

This is actually a great social experiment in my view, as it shows that in real life the bad guys can win....

Yeah, exactly. I think a lot of people are still feeling their way along in this, so our first RPG may be a bit of a training episode.

Yes, it's a very intruiging game of trust and hunches. When it is over, I will post a behind the scenes detailing how things went down. I mean, obviously, from the narrative, one can tell who Undersea and JCWolf really were, and what happened to them...

I will say, players, especially humans ,in this game are not posting their suspicions openly and helping each other shape opinions and prepare for a lynch vote. I think this is why the lynch votes are going very badly...

Six hours until the next lynch vote deadline... if they get a werewolf, it could turn the tide.
