The game thread: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=15469&p=264223#p264223
So, I've tried this on a couple of other forums, and it usually meets with success, so I thought I'd see if the Talkhaus were interested.
I'd like to run a game of Werewolf (otherwise known as Mafia) on the Talkhaus.
For those of you who don't know how this game works, I'll give a quick overview. The game consists of a number of players, anywhere above about 10. Each player has an assigned "role" sent to them via private message. No-one knows the role of the other players (though the werewolves are aware of who the other werewolves are). Most players will be "villagers", who are trying to rid their village of the werewolves. A few of the players are werewolves, who are trying to kill all the villagers (the theme of werewolves is irrelevant here, and I prefer to change up the theme for each game, to make it a bit more fun). The game plays out in real-time. Every day, the werewolf team sends me, the host, a PM with 3 names of who they want to kill that night (in order of preference). Every day, the villagers vote for who they think is a werewolf (discussion is allowed), and a majority means that player will be executed. The game ends when the werewolves are defeated, or all the villagers are dead.
I often play this with more complex rules. Certain villagers, for example, may have "powers" that they can use (a common example is to protect one person from werewolf attacks for one day). I sometimes even have multiple antagonist teams, who don't know the identity of other antagonists, but are working with them. I also usually include a narrative, which makes things a bit more interesting.
This game usually takes about a week to play out, once it starts. It's been played with a lot of success in the past, and always produces good fun. I hope the Talkhaus can have fun with it, too.
I'll keep a list of people who are interested here, and see if we have enough players.
