By the time you were threatening to kill people, we'd had posts from Lum, Bill Murray, Mikuru, me, and Rain.
People who posted: 2 wolves, Phil Connors, 2 vigilantes.
People who hadn't posted: 1 wolf, 3 vigilantes.
Let's look at alternate accounts:
Brentai: Mikuru
Disposable Ninja: Never made one.
Guild: G, maybe? Or waterglass? Fuck, I don't know. There are more accounts posting here than should be playing.
Kayma: Rain
Kazz: waterglass? The Noid? Who can say.
Laserbeing: Lum
Newbie: EGG SHEN
Reaverbot: Spocktopus, but he posted using his regular account once and was already on his way to being dead
Yyler: Bill Murray
What I'm trying to say here is that, of this list of players, only Brentai, Kayma, LaserBeing, myself, and Yyler were actually playing. Maybe Guild, too. I couldn't tell. It was pretty obvious from the start that anybody who either didn't bother to make an anonymous account or who didn't post until the second day or at all was a wolf. That tied the wolves' hands: they had to kill inactive players first in order to maintain as large a pool of credible threats as possible: The Noid first, then DN.
In order for werewolf to work, the players have to be invested. By default, the way that investment happens is that you're a huge fan of wolf (Brent, Guild) or that you have a special role. If I sign up for a game, I won't necessarily realize it's going to happen right then—some games have a much longer incubation period than others—but I'm at least interested in playing it. On the other hand, finding out that a game I signed up for started without me realizing it, has been going for a while now and has seen people die already is a good way to guarantee I won't care one way or another.
I guess what I'm saying is, it's frustrating to sign up for a game, find out half the players were never notified that the game's starting, and then see the moderator threaten to start mod-killing people for inactivity when barely half the players have checked in.
This was an interesting game idea, though, and I'm glad we got to try it out. I'd be interested in trying out a tweaked version again some time.
