> [@Mahaloth](#): > > Was there a message board elsewhere that the wolves communicated on? I’d love to see the whole conversation, Yes.

Thanks for modding! Do you think you’ll be running another Werewolf/Mafia game any time soon? Well, I’ve got three games in the works. One, an openly evil game where I get to screw with the conditions and such midgame; that one’s only suited for Idle’s board, as I’ll need admin powers for it. Currently 18th in line there. The second is based around The Scarlet Letter, and is more or less ready provided I get someone to look it over. I was planning to run it on the mafia Facebook group set up by Idle Thoughts, where I’m sixth in line. But I could run it here (or on domebo (but I’m boycotting the Giraffe Boards for entirely petty reasons)) easily enough. Only problem is, recruitment (optional, I should mention!) is a major mechanic in that particular set-up, which has…a significant stigma attached to it. If anyone wants to help me balance that setup, I could use the help. The third is in Development Hell, and will probably never actually be run. > [@Scuba\_Ben](#): > > I’m still wondering why I was eaten first. Basically, because you were experienced. ---

By all means, I consent to letting everyone see. Prepare to be… disappointed, everyone. It was a guerrilla operation. > [@Freudian Slit](#): > > Wolf question–what was your thinking when you were voting on whom to kill? Well, you’ll see, I guess. At first it was pick off the unsuspicious and/or the experienced. Mid- to late- game the idea was that we were screwed if we played along with the testerizer results, so we left the tested and suspicious alive, figuring that playing paint-by-numbers wasn’t going to work so we’d have to break the status quo. Didn’t work, obviously. **Ben** , it wasn’t particularly scientific; somebody said a couple of names, somebody else picked one. ---

PS - I apologize to the town players I insulted. I’m kind of competitive. ---

Thanks, **pedescribe** , for a very interesting game. What did I learn? Mostly that I’m not cut out for these kinds of games. 😉 ---

I can look over your game. I have no interest in playing in a recruitment game. ---

As soon as Complextown is over, though, because I’m running dangerously low on time. ---
