If you want to host TWGXII, send me a PM with your speech.
Will decide on a date for signups when I can talk to someone from TWC.
Kilga edit: I'm removing myself from the running because of the number of other people who want to do it, as well as a mistaken assumption on my part that we were going to vote on a host and THEN sign up like we did last time.
LD edit: Damnit Kilga, your idea was the most normal, please consider re-joining the running. We haven't had a classic TWG in AGES.

In mine, what Cenright did (assuming there were no screenshots involved, all he did was ask what number people were) wouldn't be cheating. social engineering would be perfectly legal.
To counter that, however, absolutely no screenshots whatsoever. This includes screenshots of AIM or whatever. I'm not sure if this is actually banned right now, but it'd be a rule in my game.
I might considering using that Wizard Glass idea thing. Someone started a thread about it. My specifics of it would be that it would be randomly passed from person to person every night, I'd PM whoever has it. They would choose one person, and I would say that persons role, whether it be wolf, seer, psychic, whatever. I'll work with the idea, and see what people might like if I become a candidate to host.
And yeah, just one wolf team. I'll look at some past games to figure out the exact layout (number players, number wolves, etc.) of what it'll be.
And though I'm not that great of a player, I've hosted TWG's before on other forums, as well as a TON [~100] of times real life games.

If I host, it'll be a blind game. By blind game, I mean that nobody will know the roles. 16 people, but nobody knows what special roles there are. I promise not to add anything strange or completely new, so I'll be using mostly the standard set of roles (wolf, master wolf, seer, guardian, psychic, vigilante, masons, normal human). There's no guarantee that any one of those roles will be used, or what number of wolves there are or even how many people are special roles.
Hopefully this will add a lot more to play because people will try to fake being certain roles. This is less risky because you don't know if anybody really has the role, or if there are multiples of that role (that's right, there might be 2 seers, or 2 guardians, or 5 psychics. Who knows!). It'll be a tricky game, and if I host I expect to see lots of trickery.
Also, I will let the wolves tell me how they want to kill people. If you want to kill somebody cleanly, okay. If you want blood and guts, fine. If you want random explosions, so be it. Wolves get to have input on the story. Their ideas for killings will be included in the PM. Don't send me a method for killing and I'll make something up myself, but it's more fun to come up with original kills as a wolf Razz.
As for a theme: humans are mafia members, but there are moles. The moles are eliminating the top officers of the mafia (the humans), so they must vote amongst themselves in order to root out the moles. The mafia members are so secretive and super special that nobody even knows what their partners specialties are, hence the blindness of this game.
So to recap:
-Blind game: what roles are in the game and how many of each are unknown to everybody.
-Wolves get to influence the story by saying how they want to kill people.
-Theme is based on top mafia members being infiltrated.

You all already know I'm the smartest TWG player, so what's keeping me from being the best host? Well, not really anything
My game will be smaller, max 15 or 16 people, because these big TWGs just bring in a fuckwaste of inactives. No self voting is allowed and phantoms are 1.5 votes against you no matter what. I also fully support social engineering, therefore I allow you to talk about what is said in your PM or you can fake AIM messages all you want. The more you can mess with people's heads, the better.
I never make things simple though, and I like to throw in a twist in games. So here's the deal: There will be stuff hidden in the game. People must ally with others and share knowledge and codes they receive from me or other sources to crack riddles and obtain items. Items that can be used in the game and do various things. What are they? Who knows. You might find yourself allying with a wolf to win, but you sure as hell don't want the items landing in the wrong hands (or paws) either.
The story is a surprise, but I got a 5 on AP English Composition so apparently I can write stories well. Also, like EB, you can contribute to the story (after all, I put the white stuff on eyespew in XI to say fuck you, wolf... I like hands-on activities Very Happy )
If you choose me I will post a full synopsis of information once everyone has joined and will send out PMs/Codes and information to everyone. You might even have to learn about steganography or cyphering for this one Smile
