In that case, I will try to see if we can get a medium-sized vanilla+ game going for the 2006-2007 crowd sometime June.

Hoping kyro's able to pull in a few more for such a game, but I'll also continue trying

@everyone - right now we're mostly just waiting for people to respond and then I'll get started on scheduling the different reunion games

Thanks!

I deleted Facebook like a year ago. Some weird hack thing happened and my account sent out like 1000 private messages in half hour, with actual details about me. I disabled it temporarily, but then realized how awesome it was without it.

Bobo is tentatively in provided he gets a working computer by the time we start. Rumor is he had a ton of kiddie porn on it and the feds were on his tail so he had to destroy it.

A friends uncle tried to get me fired for a political post I made disagreeing with him. While academic freedoms are pretty solid in a professor role, the arguing I was doing only had potential to hurt me. That combo made it pretty easy to not want to return.

Dammit I want to play in this so bad. But I can't be around in the evenings, and work actually takes most of my days, so being in will just make me feel bad. But the nostalgia for this is strong (also, people have joined and retired from POG since I last played here, which is just lol)

What's the current mobile option for POGging? I had a blackberry last time I was here. I could maybe do a vanilla game, but only with people who were here prior to the iPhone

Tapatalk is a free mobile app that I use for all my pogging

And yeah, play even if you can’t be around much; I think a lot of us want that kind of game anyway

Hi all. Thanks for the invite. (Those of you who haven't seen me before... I was on the forum a lot 2004-2010, and my peak Werewolf involvement was around 2007.)

I do still play a lot of bridge and a little bit of poker, but only rarely peek in to 2+2 (OK, every time Bovada ruins their software and makes it impossible to log on, I check Internet Poker to see if I'm not the only one.)

Would at least consider a reunion game this summer. My tastes run more to vanilla-ish and slower-paced.

No particular week or month is best - that'll depend on the work (virus, vacation, etc) situation when the particular week in question gets close.

I don't know what thingy wants, but a Fortnite Mishmassacre I don't even have to write roles for. It's on the shelf, ready to be played

I can also run a POG Corral game, but that requires heavy modding, since it is a the entire day is an ITA period.

An all-vig game like the last Wire game is also easy to run. These are games that won't take much effort to set up, are quite fun and don't last long

I'm kind of afraid to pump a lot more energy into it for a bunch of oldtimers who don't give a **** and have a significant probability of not showing up at all

Looking like it might need to be a simple vanilla for the 2006-2007 crowd, and vanilla is the cadillac of werewolf after all

just give them all villager roles and have it be a no lynch game, and then they can just show up as they wish and hunt for nonexistent wolves together
