Welcome to the Animaniacs Vanilla+ Game Thread!



First of all, the usual blah blah werewolf rules and stuff:

POG Werewolf Rules

For more details, please see Werewolf Rules And Etiquette

• As long as the game is ongoing, you may talk about the game only inside the game thread
• You may post in the game thread only when it is DAY
• You may post only when you are alive
• If you have a role which allows you to communicate outside the game thread, then you may do so only when allowed by your role, and only with individuals specified by your role
• You may not edit or delete posts in the game thread for any reason at any time
• You may not post screenshots of, or directly quote your role PM, seer peeks, or any other game-related communication that originated outside of the game thread
• You are expected to participate
• You are expected to be familiar with the rules, and you are expected to abide by them even if you think they are incorrect
• You are expected to behave civilly

Werewolf is a game about lying and catching people lying. It's an adversarial game and arguments between players are normal and expected. Passion and Intensity are fine but excessively personal attacks or insults are not. Even in a werewolf game you must respect the forum rules about civility. Failure to do so may cause you to be infracted or temp banned, and repeated problems may get you perma-banned.

Werewolf is also a community and team-based game. While there are many styles and strategies and reasons for playing and you may choose your own, you are expected to be respectful of the time and energy others put in as players and as moderators. You are expected to play to win. Intentionally sabotaging your team, or choosing strategies with the sole purpose of trolling other players in the game is not allowed.

Voting

Each day, each player is allowed (and encouraged) to vote to lynch a player. To do so, type the name of the player in bold; That is: zurvan

You may remove your vote by posting "unvote". You may change your vote simply by voting the new player; you do not need to unvote.

At the end of the scheduled game day, the player with the most votes is lynched, and his role revealed in the thread. If two or more players are tied for the most votes, one of the tied players is chosen randomly by the moderator.

THERE IS NO MAJORITY LYNCH IN THIS GAME

MUST LYNCH WILL BE ANNOUNCED AT START OF DAY. IF MUST LYNCH APPLIES, THE USUAL MUST LYNCH RULES WILL APPLY (votes are locked in when cast and may not be unvoted/changed/etc)


I will open the thread every morning by posting "It is day." You may not post in the thread until I have made the morning post.

Day lasts until 9:00 PM. Posting at 9:00 PM is acceptable, and votes with that time stamp will be counted. Posting after that, even just a minute after, is not acceptable, even if I have not yet declared it night by posting "It is night." Do not post in the thread at any time, for any reason, between the end of the day and the opening of the thread the next morning.

Weekends are different: There is not "night" Saturday night -- the thread remains open from Saturday morning until Sunday evening. There is no scheduled Saturday night lynch.

Night actions are due no later than 6:00 AM each morning. The thread will open sometime after 6:00 AM, depending on how awake and stuff your moderators are.

Day actions are due no later than 1:30 PM. All day actions will be processed in one batch, in the same manner that night actions are normally processed, and following all the same rules for processing, except that the thread will of course not be closed. It does not matter if you submit your day action one minute after the thread opens or at exactly 1:30 PM. Announcement of effects of day actions should be expected to take place at APPROXIMATELY 2:00 PM each day, with some slight variation due to the mods lolwork schedule. For the two-day weekend, the deadline for day actions will be 11:00 PM Saturday, with the actions hopefully processed shortly thereafter.

Players are allowed, and encouraged, to submit actions in advance if they so wish.

Wolves will receive 24-hour chat immediately upon receipt of their PM. The lover/mason pair will receive 24 hour chat immediately upon receipt of their PM.







IT IS NIGHT DO NOT POST

On flavor and claiming and such

Players may claim anything they want. All non-vanilla role PMs will be published in the game thread before the game starts. Players who receive vanilla villager PMs (note: these may not end up being vanilla villagers) will receive no flavor or character. This is done so that we don't have to worry about vanilla villagers "clearing" themselves by claiming a particular character, and we don't have to worry about giving wolves fake character claims for vanilla villagers.


IT IS STILL NIGHT DO NOT POST

Win conditions

The village win condition is as follows: The village wins when it has eliminated the wolf team.

The wolf win condition is as follows: The wolves win when they have reached irrevocable parity with the village team. (Mod note: normally, achieving parity will be sufficient to win, but we can envision some situations where the village has a lot of vigging power and such and might be able to dig their way out. Basically, we'll let you know.)



IT IS STILL NIGHT DO NOT POST

Order of Operations and Questions You Might Have About Interactions

Night actions, and day actions, will be processed in the following order, as applicable:

1. Village roleblocker
2. Wolf jailkeeper
3. Wolf watcher/tracker sets target
4. Village seer peeks target
5. Triggered death of village seer, if applicable (not angelable)
6. Village decoy chooses target to visit
7. Angels (order doesn't matter) will protect players
8. Kills (includes all vigilantes and wolf team kill; simultaneous/order doesn't matter) will kill players that aren't protected by jailkeep or angel
9. Village decoy changes disguise (not blockable)


Q: Does this mean that if the village roleblocker targets the wolf jailkeeper that the wolf jailkeeper's action will fail?
A: Yes.

Q: Does that mean that the village roleblocker's action will go through even if they are targeted by the wolf jailkeeper?
A: Yes.

Q: Is that normal?
A: Not really; deal with it.

Q: Let's say the seer's protector is dead, and the seer peeks the godfather wolf. Will the seer die?
A: No.

Q: Will flavor indicate who killed who in this game?
A: Yes. Even if killed by multiple parties.

Q: When will the backup village revenge night vig be informed of their role (since they get a vanilla PM to start the game)?
A: We will PM them immediately upon the death of the starting village revenge night vig. So, if you get a vanilla PM, you may want to check your mailbox if you see that player die.

Q: If the wolf tracker/watcher dies during a phase, will the wolf team get the results of his action in that phase?
A: No.

Q: What happens if actions aren't submitted?
A: All actions are optional except the wolf team kill; if you don't submit an action you won't use one. The wolf team kill will be randed among all villagers if not submitted.

IT IS NIGHT DO NOT POST

WOLF TEAM ROLES


XXXX, you are the Godpigeon. As head of the Goodfeathers, your Brando-esque incoherent rambling inspires your underlings to… well, poop on stuff and be completely ineffectual. They’re pigeons, what do you expect?

You are the Wolf Godfather watcher/tracker/3x angel. Starting n1, each night AND each day, you may choose to watch someone to find out who visits them, track someone to find out who that person visits, or angel someone to prevent their death. You may not target the same player with the same action on either consecutive phases or on consecutive days or nights (so if you watch target X on n1, you may not watch them on d2 or n2, but you could for instance track them d2 and then angel them n2). You have only three uses of your angel ability, so use them wisely. Day angeling someone will NOT prevent their lynch.


XXXX, you are Bobby. As one of the Goodfeathers, it’s your job to execute the Godpigeon’s wishes. You don’t do that very well though. You seem to be the only Goodfeather who can actually understand what the Godpigeon is saying, so that’s nice.

You are a Wolf 1x Night Vigilante. On any one night starting n1, you may kill a player. If you use this power, the other wolf 1x night vigilantes may not use theirs that night.


XXXX, you are Pesto. As one of the Goodfeathers, it’s your job to execute the Godpigeon’s wishes. You’re the most foul-mouthed and temperamental of the Goodfeathers, being modeled after Joe Pesci’s character in approximately every movie ever.

You are a Wolf 1x Night Vigilante. On any one night starting n1, you may kill a player. If you use this power, the other wolf 1x night vigilantes may not use theirs that night.


XXXX, you are Squit. As one of the Goodfeathers, it’s your job to execute the Godpigeon’s wishes. You’ve been doing that for as far back as I can remember. Pesto tends to beat you up because, well, because he’s Pesto.

You are a Wolf 1x Night Vigilante. On any one night starting n1, you may kill a player. If you use this power, the other wolf 1x night vigilantes may not use theirs that night.








XXXX, you are Ralph T(heodore) Guard. It’s your job to keep Yakko, Wakko, and Dot locked up in the water tower. Too bad you aren’t very good at your job. At least in this game you’ll get to be somewhat effective.

You are the Wolf Jailkeeper. Each night, starting n1, you may target a player. They will be both roleblocked and angeled that night. You may not target the same player on consecutive nights. You can never target yourself with this ability.


XXXX, you are Elmyra Duff. Wait, wasn’t she in Tiny Toons and not Animaniacs? Well, yeah, technically, but she made a few guest appearances on Animaniacs, so, nyah, she’ll do.

Anyway, you’re quite obviously the Wolf 3x Day Vigilante. Starting d2, you may crush the life (not to mention the will to live) out of one poor innocent cartoon character per day. You may use this ability three times in total (only once per day of course).



XXXX, you are Walter J. Wolf. Chief antagonist to Slappy Squirrel, you appeared with Slappy in a number of the meta-cartoons. Your attempts to defeat Slappy include suing her and faking your own death to do a sneak-attack – and that was like JUST done in the Community game, so I guess that’s out.

You are a Vanilla Wolf. You have no powers.

VILLAGE NON-VANILLA PM ROLES



XXXX, you are Rita.
YYYY, you are Runt.

You are a cat-and-dog partnership of vagabonds working through life’s troubles to find a home together. Rita is a headstrong cat and the unquestioned leader of the pair. She is often frustrated by Runt’s dimwittedness, but despite that she regards Runt as a true friend. Runt is a dog who is so stupid he thinks Rita is a dog too, and will do anything to defend her. Really, let’s be honest, without that cat you’d probably be lying in a pool of your own vomit right now.

Together, you are the Village Mason/Lovers. You have 24 hour outside of thread communication starting upon receipt of this PM. If the player designated as Rita dies first, Runt will die too, because he can’t live without her. If the player designated as Runt dies first, Rita will be very sad but get on with her life.



XXXX, you are Wakko Warner. The middle of the Warner siblings, you’re known for two things: packing away the snacks (not useful here, sorry), and your trusty wooden mallet. Hey, we can work with that!

You are the Village Day Vig. Each day, starting on d2, you may choose a player to kill during the day phase of the game (see rules for details).




XXXX, you are Yakko Warner. The oldest and wisest of the Warner siblings, you often take on the role of leader, diplomat, and protector for your brother and sister. You also are responsible for most of the adult humor in the series, for which we thank you.

You are the Village Day Angel. Each day during the day phase, starting on d2, you may choose a player; they will be immune to death during the day phase. This has no effect on the lynch.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVgJRfOW2zY

XXXX, you are Francis Pumphandle, but everyone calls you Pip. You like cheeseballs a lot, and on the 17th of April – or was it the 18th? No, it was definitely the 17th, because that was exactly one week after your Aunt Lucretia’s birthday, which is the 10th – your aunt Lucretia is a lovely lady, but she doesn’t really care for cheeseballs – but she really likes fondue. Fondue comes from the French word fondre, which means to melt, which makes sense because fondue is basically melted cheese. I suppose aunt Lucretia might like fondue made from cheeseballs, but you’ll have to wait a while because you won’t see here again until her birthday, which is April 10th. Anyway, as I was saying, on the 17th you had the opportunity to meet Bob Barker at a party. Bob Barker, only the longtime host of one of the most popular game shows of all time. It was a great party too, they had both cheeseballs AND fondue, which seems like it might have been excessive. Unfotunately your aunt Lucretia wasn’t able to be there, she would have loved the fondue. Bob Barker didn’t seem to care for the cheeseballs or the fondue, which was somewhat surprising…

Anyway, imagine that, voiced by Ben Stein. You are the Village 3x roleblocker. During any three phases of the game starting n1, you may target a player; they will be prevented from carrying out any action.



XXXX, you are Mindy, a really inquisitive little girl whose mother often leaves her in the care of their dog Buttons. You always end up going on highly dangerous adventures, putting yourself and Buttons in grave danger (is there any other kind?), only for you to end up right back where you were at the end of the episode, and Buttons horribly mangled and in trouble somehow.

You are the Village Suicide Affiliation Seer. Each night, starting n1, you can go on a grand adventure to visit a player and ask them all sorts of questions, like “Why?”, and your personal favorite, “Why?” You will determine their affiliation (villager or wolf) as a result. However, if Buttons is not alive to save you and you get yourself into a situation that is too dangerous (i.e. successfully peeking a wolf), you’ll be killed, so tread carefully. On n0 you will be randed a villager peek from all players who receive vanilla villager PMs (see rules for details)



XXXX, you are Slappy Squirrel, an octogenarian squirrel retired from your years of stardom as cartoon superstar Slappy, the Slap-Happy Squirrel. Now you live in your treehouse with your nephew Skippy. You believe in solving your problems the old fashioned way – with exaggerated and grotesque cartoon violence. Seeing a wolf bleed out in front of you, now that’s comedy!

You are the Village Revenge Night Vig. Each night, starting n1, you may choose a player to die IF a villager died during the day as a result of a day vig or the lynch. If no villager dies in this way, you do not get a vig that night.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xr37BJA3cLI

XXXX, you are Chicken Boo. You are a giant chicken with the habit of disguising yourself as a human and performing human tasks. The disguises are awful – usually a hat or a fake moustache is all that’s needed – but nobody ever notices, except one person, at which point everyone beats you up.

You are the Village Decoy. Each day starting d1 AND each night starting n1, you may choose to visit a player. This visit will have no effect on them.

Also, your power of disguise extends after your death. During any phase starting d1 or later, you may choose another villager role to reveal as. If you die, you will be revealed as that role. You may choose to change this role at any time before your death. This ability is not roleblockable. Changing your disguise will happen at the end of the phase, so if you are targeted for death you will not be able to change your disguise. A corrected reveal with your actual information will be provided to the players two phases after your death:

If you die at night, it will be revealed at the end of the following day with the lynch reveal.
If you die during the day phase, it will be revealed at the start of the following day.
If you die to the lynch, it will be revealed at the following day’s day phase.
If you are modkilled, this won’t work and you will immediately be revealed as your actual role.

OTHER VILLAGER ROLES

Note that the following three players will receive vanilla villager PMs; upon the player's death they will be revealed as their actual role, which is shown below.




XXXX, you are Princess Angelina Contessa Louisa Francesca Banana Fanna Bo Besca the Third, otherwise known as Dot Warner. You are the youngest of the Warner clan, and the only girl. You have the power of cute. There’s even a song about it!

You are the Village Untargetable Player. Anyone targeting you with an individual action will be mesmerized by your cuteness and will effectively be roleblocked. You may be lynched as normal, and the wolf TEAM kill will kill you as normal, even if there’s only one wolf left.

(Note: this player received a vanilla villager PM)




XXXX, you are Buttons, faithful dog and companion to Mindy. You are often entrusted with Mindy’s care, and it’s your job to keep her out of dangerous situations, often at your own peril. Silly puppy!

You are the Village Seer’s Protector. As long as you are alive, the seer can peek wolves without fear of being killed. However, if you are dead, the poor seer might be killed if they get themselves into the wrong situation without you to get them out.

(Note: this player received a vanilla villager PM)




XXXX, you are Skippy Squirrel, the sweet and cute nephew of Slappy Squirrel. You live with Slappy in a treehouse. While Slappy tends toward exaggerated cartoon violence, you tend toward a more diplomatic approach... most of the time. I’d imagine that your aunt’s death would cause you to go over the edge though!

You are the Village Backup Revenge Night Vig. In the event that the Village Revenge Night Vig dies, you will assume their role, and you will be able to kill someone at night if, and only if, a villager died to a vig or the lynch during the day. You will receive a PM informing you of your new role once you assume it.

(Note: this player received a vanilla villager PM. If the Village Revenge Night Vig died before them, they received a new PM informing them of their actual role upon that player’s death.)


VANILLA VILLAGER PM

You are a vanilla villager. Well, probably. You never know, you might be something important!

IT IS, OF COURSE, STILL NIGHT, DO NOT POST

Randing and PM sending will take place tomorrow, approximately 12 hours from this post. The thread will open sometime shortly after midnight Monday morning for day 1.

Participation rules:

As noted, werewolf is a game of participation.

Good idea: posting in the thread.
Bad idea: posting in your head.

Players must make at least one post in the game thread at least 1 hour prior to EOD, or they will be modkilled. On day 1 only, a non-participating player will be subbed out instead, assuming that subs are available.

Randomization has taken place, and role PMs have been sent out. If you didn't receive a role PM, and you're on the list below, please PM this account immediately.

1 suicide affiliation seer
1 seer's protector(1)
1 untargetable player(1)
1 decoy
10 vanillas

(1) these players received vanilla villager PMs, will be revealed as actual role on death.
(2) this player received a vanilla PM; under some circumstances may receive their actual role later in the game

Two items:

1) I wanted to clarify how day actions work, because there was a question about it.

If you have a day action of any kind, you must submit it before 1:30 PM server time, or you may not use it each day. Regardless of the time that you submit the day action (done by PM to the Toon Mod account), all day actions will be processed with the 1:30 PM deadline in mind. There is no need to race to the computer first thing in the morning if you have a day vig you want to get off, or a peek you want to give before you get shot. No day actions will be processed prior to 1:30 PM. You may freely change your submission before 1:30 PM if you think better of it. You may freely submit day actions well in advance (even the night before) if you want to.
