Werewolf Town of Salem IX (Night 1)

[BEaston]

You know what this means don't you BEaston

Seven doctors

I'm here for it.

 

[Raz]

ok . reading up on the roles and hopefully all straight forward.

Then will need to see if my Role does anything that others are expecting me to do LOL

 

[MarcMaverick]

I'm here for it.

How about everyone be doctors and we re-create E.R.?

[Raz]

Everybody now has a role! Congratulations.

But now. The twist. (!)

You all know how Town of Salem goes. Some of you have played it eight times now.

That precious role list helps you fill in the gaps. It's so satisfying to decipher the clues and figure out who all the goodies and baddies are.

But not this time.

This time we are playing ALL ANY TOS. A completely randomised role list.

All you know is that there is at least one evil role out there. Or else this game would have ended instantly. In fact, it's entirely possible for you ALL to be evil.

And for the record, I did not balance this role list at all. It's completely random.

Have fun!



See you in the morning at 10am AEDT.

Orders may be placed in advance in your PM (to avoid accidently missing a night phase, stack as many orders as you'd like). Voting during the Day Phase is not essential.

2 night(s) until the Coven has the Necronomicon.

Day phase is 10am-4pm AEDT (6 hours).
Night phase is 4pm-6pm AEDT (2 hours).

Day phase is 6pm-12am AEDT (6 hours).
Night phase is 12am-10am AEDT (10 hours).

So no night phase to start with ?

We start tomorrow morning on a Day phase?

IS that correct?

I would say "i asking for a friend" but i dont have any sitting here LOL


So i need to check what if any DAY time Actions i have and what Night Time Actions.

Then post them in PM to you before Deadlines. Ok will go and do more reading.

This whole DEF and ATT thingy is not clear to me.

Anyone able to psot some info about that part.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Starting with a night phase, which concludes 10am AEDT tomorrow morning.

ATT = attack and DEF = defence. The OP lays out a number of hierarchies which establish which actions have priority (ie. occur first), as well as the strength of each power. From memory, I think the strength of attack and defence ranges from Unstoppable, to Powerful, to Basic.

For instance, a powerful attack will overcome basic defence, and take effect, but a basic attack won’t.

ok sorry for asking queastions and interupting the DOCTOR chatter lol

Please imagine a Clever and WITTY DOCTOR GIF Here

thanks . so when he posted the order of the phases it was only indicative and he siad see you tommorrow at 10

Yep the clever ones knew what he was saying


Read the openng posts but sorry it doesnt make sense.

Ill try ,.

So if i have a killing role and PM a choise to serial_thrilla he then works out if my ATT is stronger than the Selected persons DEF and if it is i succeed in a kill If not do i die or does it just get reported as unsuccesffiul

So if htat is true. Any one with a low ATT should not go randomly killing as in other WW games. You need to wait to detect somehow those with weaker DEf.

And if you have high DEF you should pretend in thred you dont so you attacj some foolish Kiolloers ?


Is that the gist of it ?

 

[Raz]

and the role of Pirate has three weopons and people get three option to choose. So it a random event if Pirate succeeds or not . Not based on DEF and ATT ?

You jsut hope if you pirate you dont choose the weopen that can be defended .. and as the duel reciever you just randonly home to pick one of hte two actiosn that over come the weopne. so maybe a 677% change of success if it is random

Yeah, kind of. I think it’s helpful to think of basic defence as being kind of like night immunity in regular werewolf games (consider the roles in the OP that get basic defence, they’re usually quite similar in nature to faction heads, serial killers etc), but worth noting that there are still certain circumstances where those players can be killed overnight.

Town of Salem really requires you to read the rolelist and become accustomed to how all roles work (not just your own) because individual roles can have nuance In their descriptions that can completely change their operation. Strength of attacks can get upped depending on whether players are in possession of particular things.

I won’t tell anyone how to play their role but I don’t think I’d hesitate necessarily to use an attacking power if you think you can do so in a targeted way that is helpful to your win condition, whatever it may be. If the attack fails, so be it. You learn something from it.

Just don’t blame me when you try to hit an altering veteran.

Pretty sure I missed the last one, here I was excited for ‘normal’ TOS and it’s now also mixed with a TIAYG role set. Oof fun times ahead

The answer to this is precisely why I said all the role descriptions need to be considered closely. If you review the description of veteran in the OP it will make a little bit more sense.

Maybe if you could spell, it would make more sense to poor Raz

Ok you mean ALERTING VETERAN
NOT an Altering Veteran


Thanks

But yes just reading OPs does not mean everything clear etc.

TO truly learn how to play and enjoy all games whether it is SALEM or MONOPOLY.
Jsut reading the rules is not enough. With little PM involvement in many of these games it is hard to learn the ins and outs.


But thanks for your ansers

 

[Raz]

yeah teribly sorry you were able to read it and understand but i didnt .

Yep here we go.

Not your fault you didn’t understand Tarks, he used the complete wrong word, if I hadn’t played before, I’d be just as confused
