Crap. I’m unemployed right now, so I’ll play. I’ve played one mafia game before so I’m not technically a newbie.

OK, sign me up. I’m a newbie. If I do the wrong thing, do I have to wear a funny hat?

I presume no one but the werewolves themselves will know how many werewolves there are?

Doubt that.

Dancing in the cage during town meetings/the Night is welcomed, though.

I would like to play! I’ve never played Mafia or Werewolf before.

Is there anything I need to do other than this post to play?

If you’re a regular Rancher or Farmer, no. If you’re a werewolf, you’ll also need to post separately with the other werewolves to discuss tactics and your nightkill. If you’re one of the few power roles, you would have extra things that you could do, all conducted by PM with the moderator (me). However, none of this is much more of an effort than posting.

Sorry, I wasn’t clear. (I do that sometimes.) I meant was there anything else required for me to sign up. (Of course I have to put in effort to play, that’s the point!)

Will there be a seperate thread for werewolves to talk amongst themselves or is that conducted via PM? If it’s in a thread, won’t anyone be able to see who the werewolves are just by looking at the last person to post?
