N.B.: Roles have been assigned using a random wheel spinner role by role.

[Marxist Germany]

The roles will be assigned soonish, and the game will begin at 6pm UTC+1.

[Valars]

Hi (also first)!

[Musketoon]

Whatever. Been sitting in here for the passed 15 mins

[Valars]

so... we wait until the round is over?

[Musketoon]

Or until people figure out that the game started

[Valars]

so while we wait, how are you?

[Musketoon]

Doing well. How about yourself?

[Valars]

Im ok, how do you think this game will turn out?

[Eastern New England]

Is this the day phase or night phase we have going on? I can't seem to find where it says...

[Marxist Germany]

We start with a day phase, I will notify you of each phase from here onwards.

[Marxist Germany]

Each phase will last from 5pm UTC+0 to 5pm UTC+0. So the first night phase will begin in about 23 hours.

[Eastern New England]

Thank you for clarifying!

[Musketoon]

I don't really know. I have played a large amount of WW games but they either had role revealing as to make people far more unsure if you are telling the truth and or you can look at peoples faces to see if they are lying

You can do this in a more subtle manner than outright declaring you are X!

[Musketoon]

I know just not used to it being stilted in this way. If you are big WW fans you should play Town of Salem. It's a pretty boppin time

I have a grandfathered account. I also can give you guys some play codes if you want

[Marxist Germany]

Let's stay on topic please

[Musketoon]

Sorry. Just not a lot of activity going on rn

[Palman]

Musketoon, always glad to see a new player who's experienced in werewolf. We've been playing for years on here (hence WW67). The transition from in person games to a play by post is definitely an adjustment.

Two pieces of advice: first, when the village is unsure of who to lynch, we have a tendency to target inactive players or players who don't seem to be contributing theories. It's harsh, especially when said inactivity is caused by real world obligations, but in the absence of better targets tends to make it the best move. Try your best to post daily and to post theories, even if you're unsure.

Second: Louisistan, Tuga Nation's Dragon, Ayunli, Sauron, and myself are 10KI werewolf veterans, each having played for years. Like I said, there is a learning curve to playing online as opposed to face to face. Our instincts are practiced, but so is our ability to lie and misdirect. It's worth knowing who the frequent players are.

Thanks for the advice. I plan on making a good testimony of what I do/don't do during the night as I've found that if you are able to set yourself up with a solid alibi then you are less likely to get inno or even guilty lynched. Probably will set up a word doc with roles and suspicions in it. Are we playing where we learn role upon death?

[Control]

It's the first round, we know nothing, and no lynches are allowed, so to get us started I'm going to
Vote: No Lynch

[Valars]

No lynch

[Louisistan]

Present

[Louisistan]

Vote: No Lynch

[Musketoon]

Vote: No Lynch

[Palman]

I agree no lynch for day one. We have nothing to go on at this point and the minority of roles are aided by trying to kill someone today.

Oh! And Control is a veteran too! I completely missed your name on the player list.

[Musketoon]

Quick question. It says Night Watch wins when they recruit all three kings but according to the roles there are 4 kings
