VvW7 Feedback
« on: July 20, 2010, 07:03:10 PM »
Feedback on the actual game rules goes here. Want to see the AH redone? Request a change of a power? That goes here.

I'm going to be buffing items in the next game. Here are some examples

1. Items have night priority, then wolves, the vamps, then Seers
2. you can use ANY item on the same night you get it
3. items that are only "one use" (like seer's glasses, shovel, assassin's blade) reset their "use" upon the holder being killed. this means you can dig up an assassin's blade and use it again even if it was already used.
4. Holy Cross and Silver Pendant will now also give the holder a one time use death shield if they are attacked by the appropriate faction. Using the item to kill negates this, and getting hit negates being able to use it to kill.

Overall, though, I think we've hit the right amount of balance. I mean, it certainly has never been this close before.

Vamps still haven't won yet, though, have they? I mean, they actually could have this time—but they still haven't.

Correct. On both counts. I think they're strong enough to win now. I don't see them needing further buffs.

They only lost on account of the Ernest Factor.

I could still use a little bit of clarification on my role -- the Weretiger. To me it sounded like some sort of wild card role, that an Innocent Weretiger could help any team win.

A: Yes.

Weretiger does nothing except try to help any team win. If any other team's win condition happened, the Weretiger swoops in like Batman and claims it.

And if this happens, everyone else loses.

Thus making the weretiger the most difficult role to play.  You have to subtly guide things without calling attention to yourself, and realize that people are constantly watching for the weretiger.  There have been some games where players kept wolves or vampires boxed in because they hadn't lynched the weretiger, and didn't want to risk losing.

Also, it's probably a good idea to put the Auction House back into the actual game thread, or at least provide a link and reminder.  I honestly forgot the thing existed, and the fact that several choice items never got bid on indicates that others forgot it as well.

Niku won it, being the Greater Werewolf AND the Weretiger in VvW1.  I think that's been the only Weretiger victory.


Also, I was kinda shocked that nobody got the lightsaber this time around.

In the future, please start each day by labeling what day it is. I often lost track.

I actually had a mad scheme involving killing niku to keep the game going because we hadn't rooted out the weretiger. Didn't put the 2+2 together that niku was trying to rush the game to a close. Because I'm an idiot.
