Everyone stop what you're doing! It's happening! GW's own Alu is having a baby!! Come and congratulate him here: Need some help identifying this picture.
We're so happy for you, Alu!
It was sort of funny. Every time I hit enter inside the box it just split into two boxes. Then I'm like "what if I do ctrl+enter inside the box".

FUCK!!
I definitely learned some new stuff from it lol
If nobody knows they're glamored until after the vampire is lynched, then I don't see any reason for the vampire to avoid the other acolytes.
That's what I'm thinking too. In which case it might incentivize them to make an even spread of the glamours to make for a better strategy. They would want influence on both sides. I would say the Vampire doesn't share a win condition with the Acolytes anymore if they get lynched because they'll be moved to a different team, that would dissuade them from feeling any loyalty to them as far as planning for a possible post-lynching strategy.
The rest of the acolytes shouldn’t know who the vampire is. The vampire should be given the powers of a random acolyte and as far as the acolytes are aware, the vampire is that other role… essentially the double agent role
That's a fascinating idea. It does sort of lose the whole mistrust between the Acolytes and the known Vampire that they're forced to work with, but it also raises the level of mystery and fear. I may go with that.
I think it works. The purpose of the NVS is to make the town more hesitant to lynch, and a vampire still does that. The town gets an extra person on their team but the Acolytes can also work with the vampire, so that should balance out.
That is true. The town gets an extra player, and one of the bad guys has a double role (until they get lynched) which lets them recover from injuries and possibly turn living townies into Wights. If that still somehow makes the Vampire a little OP, I could always add that the Vampire Hunter starts with a weapon or item.
Makes perfect sense
Vampire hunter dies, a townie auto gets converted to vampire hunter
I'm thinking a Vampire-killing or Vampire-identifying item might work better. Or maybe just say the Holy Relic works on Vampires as well as Wights.
Then when vampire hunter dies, their items are bequeathed to another player. Vampire Hunter has to pick at time of death, but they run the risk of giving the items to an acolyte or the vampire themself
I meant an item that could be found in the shop or from questing, but that's an idea. They have a one-shot vampire-killing item that they can pass on at death as a safeguard.
Missed opportunity to Buffy the Vampire Hunter.
Okay.
So.
Some hard dates for you guys: My last class this semester is May 8th, and my first class for summer semester is May 28th. So I technically have a 20-day window here for the next game, but not really. I'm thinking the first few days of that might be needed for turning in a few assignments late (which I might be, turns out that taking on 4 courses while working full time and taking care of my son was a bit much to handle but I can't drop anything if I want to keep getting financial aid and I can't make anything lower than a B), and the last couple of days of it trying to get ahead of my summer class. So probably more like a two weeks window. Roughly one of those weeks to re-familiarize myself with what I've made so far and maybe add some more stuff or make any remaining necessary changes, and the other week to run an actual game.
After that we'll see, because even though I'm only taking one summer class, that's because I'll also have the summer reading program to deal with at work. Hopefully I'll be less busy enough to have a smaller window of time between games. And also hopefully gives you guys enough time with this fore-warning to re-read some stuff and re-familiarize yourselves with it, because while I do plan to add things and change a few things, it's still going to be fundamentally the same, probably like 80% or so, and I'll highlight those changes and include yall in the discussion of them too before the game starts.
In other words: no excuses this time about how you didn't read everything. Yall've played a version of it once already and have more than a months warning this time

That seems inaccurate.
You beat me!
Title of Benzine's sex tape
I stopped reading here
When I got up from the operating table, my wife (girlfriend at the time) and the doctors assistant both looked down at it to examine the work and I was thinking like, "this is the first time two chicks had checked out my junk at the same time", but I couldn't even enjoy it at the moment!
