RH | 4,903 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, ZeldaFreak said: Awesome! Like I said, the more back-ups we have, the better. If we could get 2 or 3 total, that would be perfect. With that said, remember that if you guys aren't sure if you'll be able to participate fully, you can always sign up as back-ups @RH @Reed Rothchild. I'll of course keep you both on the sign-ups list for now, but back-ups are always very handy to have. Oh, I should definitely be able to post within the expected limits of a player. I just won't be around as much to stir as many pots and to threaten personal votes as before. ...but do expect me to immediately vote for myself every day phase to prove I'm town. Hahaha, just kidding... or am I?!?! Edited November 4, 2021 by RH 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splain | 2,566 Editorials Team · Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Yeah, nothing about my schedule has changed to suddenly allow me to play a game of ww, but I'm in nonetheless, and it looks like I'm not alone in that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeldaFreak | 3,600 Events Team · Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 12 hours ago, Splain said: When a new wolf is assimilated, I assume they retain all the same roles/abilities as before, but now they have a different alignment and they have to start lying like crazy. I was debating with myself whether or not I should reveal this publicly, but I figure I will since this is a pretty baseline aspect of how assimilations work: If someone with night actions is assimilated, they lose said night actions once they become a Thing. So, they essentially become a "vanilla wolf," so to speak, wherein their only ability is to assimilate and chat with the other Things. I did consider the possibility of having players keep their night actions even when they're assimilated, but I decided against it since I thought that would give the Things too big of an advantage if they assimilated the right people.

I went ahead and added this to the explanation for this particular game as well in the original post. I actually forgot to clarify that in the original post, then once Splain brought that up, I internally debated on whether or not I wanted to reveal how that works publicly.

I didn't say it was my theory, haha. I don't personally believe that theory, it's just a theory I've heard about the movie before.

RH | 4,903 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Well, I know nothing about the story. I've heard the name of the film but that's all I know. What's the premise (beyond the nothing-provided-but-suspense in the trailer?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
