Re: TWG 203 Werewolves in Avalon GAME THREAD
If u want unsafe, im gonna skip shitposting and go directly into game talk aka how does town even play this game.
Just reading the op a few times nothing seems to jump out at me. Are the merlins just supposed to be masons? Maybe the right play is just ignore all the wizardry and play it like mountainous. Theres a lot of info out there though so seems like kind of a waste to ignore it. Id like to get peoples opinions

Re: TWG 203 Werewolves in Avalon GAME THREAD
Hold up let me go back and re-read this because I missed the whole Merlin bit about them knowing each other

Re: TWG 203 Werewolves in Avalon GAME THREAD
Okay no, they don't have a chat from what I can see...
Also from what I'm reading....Avalon allows wolves to know the identities of...two vanilla townies? |

Without adding the 2 VT to the mix theyd just know who the merlins are, only missing the color assignments In this case, the chance of the wolf team instantly winning the game by luck is 3! (16% chance of them winning by guessing the merlins randomly) and only gets better with more info With 2 VT in the mix, those odds decrease to 5! (0.8% chance)

Re: TWG 203 Werewolves in Avalon GAME THREAD
Pretty much just punishes the merlins for outting themselves but im wondering if im overlooking something

Re: TWG 203 Werewolves in Avalon GAME THREAD
I think this sums it up unless you figure out what's being overlooked here and inform the class of what you learned

Re: TWG 203 Werewolves in Avalon GAME THREAD
From what I can tell, merlins know each other but not the colors. They also know a wolf of their respective color, but only them.
Wolves know each other and are handed five names, three of which are merlins while the other two are VT. The caviat here is wolves can't kill these five players the very first night, they're 100% safe sans today's vote. So... this game is going to be about not being super obvious for both sides it seems. Merlins can't just outright start accusing because if they did, the wolves would know instantly and just guess the colors to end the game prematurely. |

Honestly the fashion in it holds up tremendously for being from 2004, a lot of other movies and TV shows from that era look a lot more dated than Mean Girls imo. The humour generally holds up too. IDK, I'm obviously a fan of the movie but I just feel like most other media from that time is way more dated especially when you think about other comedy that was popular back then Anyways hello |

It definitely seems super one sided to the wolves; town Merlin seem to just be expected to either wait on their respective wolf to do something they can either realistically tunnel for, or to just keep softing and hope others take the hints. That.....doesn't seem super useful. My first instinct was that the rest of Town could cover by hypo's and just playing the part but because wolves have a list that only includes 2 towns, they already know who would be horseshiting and who might actually be the role so that seems less useful then it should. So it seems to me the safest town play is to play vanilla for right now and avoid any amount of softing/claiming unless it gets to mylo. Our Merlin's are gonna have the same issue wolves have in that they carry the burden of knowledge, but we're gonna have to just like, make it happen I guess? I don't know guys I didn't vote for this game y'all did Quote:
Once I moved out in 2008 I never, ever had cable again. I have gone most of my life without access to it. If I saw a movie it was on a DVD I owned or in the theater, but I didn't watch a lot of movies. It's the one media that's easily accessible that I never really dove in. For an example, I didn't even see Star Wars IV until 2015ish. Anyway yes, the movie holds up extremely well in my opinion for what it is (obviously I don't think I'm the target audience, but I had a lot of fun. Also, I too was homeschooled and could relate the premise to when I first went to college) and I'm glad I saw it. |

Re: TWG 203 Werewolves in Avalon GAME THREAD
I took time from editing next Tuesday's video to check the thread and no post
I suppose mornings are always slow on FFR, but I'm mindful that Shado checked in with every player, so I don't know how much slack I really want to cut on the inactives this game. I suppose for this set up, it seems host will modkill an inactive 90 minutes before EOD. If so, voting an inactive is actually not the correct play here as we will never be in a situation that forces to vote between content and lack of content. I suppose we can only focus on the active this game, but the pool is still fairly small right now and that's a bummer |
