Werewolf logs
brenbarn.net
This log collection owes much to Adam "jwalrus" Biltcliffe's similar collection, from which I stole the basic format of this index.
And oh yeah, that BrenBarn guy you keep seeing in these logs? That's me.
| "It helps when people start acting suspicious." |
| A somewhat stunted game. Just when things get going we lynch the seer for meta-game reasons and then the wolves win that night. |
| Players (7): ParserGirl Ellison BrenBarn Ender Jota WeirdBeard BoingBall |
| "Who cares who the seer is? I want blood!" |
| Another short game. DGlasser inadvertently robs the wolf of a kill in an attempt to speed up a slow night. |
| Players (5): jwalrus ParserGirl BrenBarn DGlasser thumper |
| "This is like sudden death overtime" |
| We decide to throw sanity to the wind and play a game with only 3 people. Then ParserGirl decides to lie. |
| Players (5): jwalrus ParserGirl BrenBarn |
| "Well, I'm not personally a wolf." |
| I screw it all up by accidentally saying out loud what I had meant to whisper to my fellow wolf. |
| Players (7): Marvin ParserGirl BrenBarn Ender Jota TableSaw jwalrus |
| "This one's interesting cause the wolves keep screwing up." |
| The poor seer gets killed right away. That goldarn "kill" command throws suspicion on ParserGirl, and I as the devil try unsuccessfuly to save her. |
| Players (6): ParserGirl jwalrus Ender BrenBarn TableSaw Marvin |
| "Woah, I won." |
| A one-night game with 1 wolf, 1 mafia, 1 vigilante, and 1 villager. |
| Players (4): Ender BrenBarn Marvin ParserGirl |
| "this here game is craazyy" |
| Once again we load the game with killing roles. The amazing Godfather Don Bren de Barn achieves Mafia victory. |
| Players (7): ParserGirl DGlasser inky Ender BrenBarn Marvin TableSaw |
| "Well, who *is* a wolf?" |
| The wolves take advantage of the seer's early death to gain a quick, clean victory. |
| Players (8): Marvin BrenBarn inky Ender DGlasser TableSaw Jota Miseri |
| "I'm actually the vigilante." |
| A real Joe Darter of a game. The seer's early identification of one wolf doesn't prevent the accidental lynching of the vigilante. |
| Players (9): Ryan BrenBarn BoingBall jwalrus katre inky HairBrain Jota Ender |
| "speedWolf. It is not for them to wonder why." |
| Quick and bloody. |
| Players (5): jwalrus BrenBarn Jota BoingBall Ender |
| "well, that was odd" |
| The setup of this game makes a first-night wolf victory quite probable, and whaddaya know. |
| Players (4): DGlasser thumper BrenBarn Thrax |
| "We all know that we, individually, didn't do it." |
| A game with 1 wolf, 4 villagers, and no seer. Naturally no one has any clue what to do, and then the wolf wins but Floyd crashes. |
| Players (5): thumper BrenBarn Emily DGlasser Thrax |
| "maybe I shouldn't believe em" |
| We try the previous setup again, this time with a seer. The wolf wins anyway, and Floyd crashes again. |
| Players (5): thumper BrenBarn Emily DGlasser Thrax |
| "anyways, today I think we should kill someone else who isn't me" |
| The seer holds back on important knowledge and the wolves hornswoggle everyone into lynching villagers relatively quickly. |
| Players (9): ParserGirl BrenBarn WeirdBeard josh_g Esrom Ellison inky Ender schep |
| "stable... like a wolf?" |
| Some meta-game problems drag things out for a while, but the villagers emerge victorious. |
| Players (9): Ghogg josh_g Ellison Duchess schep WeirdBeard Esrom BrenBarn Ender |
| "and of course it's quite important to know everything already." |
| With one wolf exposed by the seer, it comes down to a 50/50 choice and the villagers win but Floyd crashes. |
| Players (6): Penguin BrenBarn Ender BoingBall Marvin schep |
| "You admit your wolfishness???" |
| We manage to get through a whole game without ever lynching a non-wolf, partly because of accomodating wolves and partly because of lucky seer visions. |
| Players (7): Penguin BrenBarn Ender schep Esrom Marvin BoingBall |
| "Obviously I'm not gonna lynch myself" |
| An accidental seer-lynching coupled with freewheeling wolf tactics leads to a relatively quick wolf victory. |
| Players (7): BrenBarn Esrom BoingBall Ender schep Marvin ParserGirl |
| "You signal the werewolves." |
| Okay, this isn't really a werewolf game, it's me being silly with 3 bots in a setup that technically constitutes instant wolf victory. |
| Players (4): BrenBarn (+3 bots: vlad lupy wolfgang) |
| "And any way, that was all part of my cunning ploy" |
| Marvin demonstrates yet again his amazing propensity for being seer and being killed by the wolves the first night. The wolf capitalizes on this, and Floyd once again crashes. |
| Players (6): Marvin Mona BoingBall BrenBarn Thrax schep |
| "So, basically, the wolves won." |
| A one-night game which apparently ends in wolf victory, although Floyd's crash leaves us befuddled. |
| Players (4): Marvin Mona BrenBarn Thrax |
| "I'm a villager, of course." |
| This time it's a one-night/one-day game. Floyd's crash seems to be obscuring a villager victory. |
| Players (5): WeirdBeard BrenBarn Thrax Marvin Mona |
| "You'll die if you lynch me" |
| The seer dies right away. Wild behavior by villagers leads to wolf victory. |
| Players (6): Thrax Mona BrenBarn Marvin WeirdBeard schep |
| "good point, 'cept I ain't a wolf" |
| With a setup requiring a correct lynching on the first day, multiple seer claims allow the wolves to win. |
| Players (7): schep BrenBarn Thrax WeirdBeard Marvin Mona Esrom |
| "I step away to get some Sprite and people vote for me?" |
| The early-seer-death trend is broken and logic prevails in villager victory. |
| Players (6): trikiw Thrax BrenBarn katre Lonewolf ParserGirl |
| "I'm not lying" |
| The villagers use rough-cut logic to win despite the seer's death. |
| Players (6): BrenBarn Thrax WeirdBeard Lonewolf trikiw ParserGirl |
| "Don Corleone" |
| A no-villager game. The "pecking order" of the killing roles makes the outcome a bit hard to understand. |
| Players (4): BrenBarn WeirdBeard Thrax trikiw |
| "Oops. drat." |
| WeirdBeard, Thrax and I decided to go crazy and play a game with 18 bots. Unfortunately it crashed before anything actually happened. |
| Players (21): BrenBarn WeirdBeard Thrax (+18 bots) |
| "Hey, you're dead too!" |
| Another not-really-a-game game. WeirdBeard, Thrax, and I face off against 19 bots who vote at night and secretly kill us. |
| Players (22): BrenBarn WeirdBeard Thrax (+19 bots) |
| "Old coot=werewolf?" |
| We try out the 1 wolf/1 mafia setup. josh_g tries to bamboozle everybody but in the end the villagers come out on top. |
| Players (7): Thrax Jota BrenBarn jdoe Miseri josh_g schep |
| "we appear to be losing sight of the real issue of lynchin'" |
| The wolves keep a low profile and manage to bore everybody into voting for innocent people. |
| Players (8): jwalrus maga_dogg BrenBarn thumper BoingBall inky ParserGirl Thrax |
| "kicks ass, n'est-ce pas?" |
| With the seer dead, I, as the baner, get to tell everybody else what to do. Unfortunately I am lame and we lose. |
| Players (6): maga_dogg Ryan thumper Thrax jwalrus BrenBarn |
| "just because you're used to using your TERRIBLE FANGS" |
| Hasty lynching is redeemed by good seering. |
| Players (5): thumper schep jwalrus Doe BrenBarn |
| "you just ADMITTED YOU ARE A WOLF!" |
| Random lynching gets one wolf, but the second avenges. |
| Players (8): thumper jwalrus Sargent BrenBarn Emily schep Doe Mona |
| "a clever wolf would have killed me. damn you, whoever you are." |
| A good-sized game with lots of roles winds up taking a long time. |
| Players (9): Emily Mona BrenBarn Sargent schep Gunther thumper Doe jwalrus |
| "right. A seer who kills innocent people." |
| Everything looks to be going good for me, the wolf, until I make the wrong statement and am justly lynched. |
| Players (6): schep BrenBarn Gunther LoneCleric jwalrus Penguin |
| "shall we just crazyvote until someone dies?" |
| The 1 wolf/1 mafia setup gives us 2 deaths each of 2 nights and the Mafia wins. |
| Players (6): ParserGirl jwalrus BrenBarn Penguin Hloif BoingBall |
| "The whole world would be blind, toothless, and fieldless" |
| An interesting setup: one each of wolf, mafia, baner, archangel, seer, and villager. An attempt to identify the mafia by psychological analysis fails. |
| Players (6): BrenBarn Hloif jwalrus Penguin ParserGirl BoingBall |
| "there's no real reason to think anything, I think" |
| This was all set to be a great game -- and I was a wolf! Then maga_dogg, who was also a wolf, had to go and ruin it by killing me before seeing who his fellow wolves were. (HEAR THAT MAGA??? :-) |
| Players (14): BrenBarn BoingBall ParserGirl katre Hloif Penguin maga_dogg Mona Emily Gunther Jota Ryan schep jwalrus |
| "but is that really evidence?" |
| The game becomes bogged down in speculation, but the wolves help by voting for themselves. |
| Players (7): maga_dogg Hloif BoingBall schep BrenBarn Mona jwalrus |
| "curse you, merry yokels" |
| We manage to lynch the wolf, mostly by process of elimination. |
| Players (5): schep maga_dogg Hloif BrenBarn Emily |
| "I'm not a wolf for the same reasons you aren't" |
| The wolves take advantage of maga_dogg's outlandish behavior and win. |
| Players (7): Hloif schep Emily BrenBarn maga_dogg Rob ParserGirl |
| "lupy is a villager." |
| Once again I while away the hours playing with the bots. |
| Players (7): BrenBarn (+7 bots) |
| "Then VOTE FOR BRENBARN." |
| It starts off well for us wolves, but then the seer identifies me and the villagers wind up winning. |
| Players (9): thumper Hloif Emily Miseri maga_dogg BrenBarn schep doe andyf |
| "what? a moment ago you said I was a seer?" |
| We try the 2 wolf/2 seer/2 fool setup, not realizing that the nature of the fool role makes this somewhat trivial in principle. |
| Players (6): Hloif Gunther BrenBarn jwalrus BoingBall LoneCleric |
| "I'm also a seer" |
| The wolves keep us guessing for all of a long first day with their trickery, but we get wise to their game. |
| Players (9): Rob lurd Hloif Ellison BrenBarn andyf thumper LoneCleric lno |
| "You signal the seer." |
| Once again I experiment with the bots (no, not like that, you're disgusting), testing out the little-known "signal" command. |
| Players (10): BrenBarn (+9 bots) |
| "Don't mess up the ritual!" |
| The "If I am a seer" tactic pretty much drives this game, with players frequently reviewing earlier claims. |
| Players (8): Ellison thumper Ender LoneCleric BoingBall BrenBarn Skip Bishop |
| "my mistake, you just hate me" |
| A large, long game with lots of roles. Accusations fly every which way. |
| Players (12): Jarb BoingBall BrenBarn jwalrus inky Ender Ellison dfan Dan_Wood ctate Marvin Ryan |
| "TIME FOR BLOOD" |
| A short game, hurried along by a strange bug apparently caused by Switch's username. |
| Players (5): Thrax BoingBall Marvin BrenBarn Switch |
| "I think Floyd hates me" |
| Not much logic or anything but randomness. A brief game. |
| Players (5): BrenBarn BoingBall SwitchBlade Marvin ctate |
| "hooray, let's all lynch ourselves" |
| The game is brought to a swift end when the wolf reveals himself. |
| Players (6): BrenBarn jwalrus maga_dogg Marvin SwitchBlade ctate |
| "Still, it's not impossible to do really dumb things that work." |
| An incredibly long first day is followed by quick, brutal lynchings of the wolves when the devil looks out for number one. |
| Players (9): BrenBarn schep Marvin Iain jwalrus maga_dogg Storme Gunther Miseri |
| "did you get my signal" |
| A very long game, drawn out somewhat by a tangential discussion of the "signal" command and a night where everyone has a rollicking good time trying out all the fun verbs like "examine". |
| Players (10): Marvin Gunther Iain BrenBarn schep maga_dogg Storme devil jwalrus Miseri |
| "damn, now I look like a wolf." |
| The villagers lynch a wolf at the outset, but the surviving wolf pulls off a fiendish trick and emerges victorious. |
| Players (10): devil BrenBarn schep maga_dogg Miseri Storme Golrien jwalrus Iain Hjalfi |
| "there's always the "lynch someone at random" strategy." |
| Everything goes down in a hurry when the seer's knowledge is revealed. |
| Players (8): Golrien Hloif schep BrenBarn Skip maga_dogg BoingBall ctate |
| "i always make the wrong choice" |
| The devil compensates for the death of one wolf by stirring things up. |
| Players (8): Gunther schep BrenBarn Hloif Golrien Thrax ctate maga_dogg |
| "I'm also a villager." |
| Careful behavioral analysis and luck help the villagers win. |
| Players (8): BoingBall ParserGirl maga_dogg BrenBarn Hloif Golrien ctate josh_g |
| "wait, what?" |
| We stick a vigilante in a small, one-wolf game and enjoy the insanity. |
| Players (6): Golrien josh_g Hloif ParserGirl BrenBarn maga_dogg |
| "me am vigilante. me kill wrong person" |
| We stick a vigilante in an even smaller one-wolf game and enjoy some more insanity. |
| Players (5): Golrien BrenBarn ParserGirl maga_dogg josh_g |
| "just kill faster :)" |
| The same setup again, only this time the vigilante gets lucky and the villagers win right away. |
| Players (5): Golrien BrenBarn ParserGirl maga_dogg josh_g |
| "in my defense, I'd just like to say, I didn't do it" |
| This time the wolf/vigilante setup leaves the fate of the village in Gunther's hands. |
| Players (6): Golrien BrenBarn josh_g Gunther maga_dogg ParserGirl |
| "I deny that accusation!" |
| This time, with a larger group of people, we bring the Mafia onto the scene, complete with archangel. |
| Players (10): BrenBarn schep ctate maga_dogg Gunther ParserGirl Golrien josh_g BoingBall Hloif |
| "all this is meaningless" |
| Gunther finally cajoles everyone into playing a game with 1 wolf, 1 seer, and the rest fools. The villagers miraculously win. |
| Players (9): maga_dogg Golrien schep ctate Hloif Gunther josh_g BoingBall BrenBarn |
| "I don't care. I'm gonna die anyhow." |
| The villagers (well, members of the villager team) amazingly win, despite being faced with 2 wolves and 2 mafia. |
| Players (6): Hloif BoingBall BrenBarn schep maga_dogg ctate |
| "oh, HOW RANDOM" |
| Pure luck gives the wolf some unexpected credibility, and the villagers are vanquished. |
| Players (6): ctate maga_dogg BrenBarn schep Golrien Skip |
| "i know. i'm picking someone more likely than me to be a wolf, and voting." |
| Luck allows the villagers to recover from the seer's early death. |
| Players (5): schep BrenBarn maga_dogg Golrien ctate |
| "turnips good, innocents bad." |
| We beef up the previous setup by adding a devil, and it works: the wolf team wins. |
| Players (5): schep ctate Golrien maga_dogg BrenBarn |
| "we have lynched you by the eye... with democracy!" |
| Conversations about undergarments distract the villagers long enough to allow the wolves to win. |
| Players (9): Ellison BrenBarn josh_g jwalrus Hloif Storme Jota Emily ParserGirl |
| "trust me." |
| LucentTrans plays the role of baner in a most unconventional manner. |
| Players (6): BrenBarn Skip BoingBall WeirdBeard Bishop LucentTrans |
| "'jumps', eh? So he MUST BE A WOLF" |
| Marvin's gloomy perspective proves well-founded. |
| Players (7): LucentTrans BrenBarn WeirdBeard BoingBall Bishop Gunther Marvin |
| "erm, no. I'm a villager." |
| A lucky seer vision and an astute baner allow the villager to win quickly. |
| Players (7): trikiw schep LucentTrans BrenBarn BoingBall Thrax maga_dogg |
| "Get a room/grave." |
| 3 wolves in an 11-player game doesn't give the villagers much of a chance in any case. In this particular instance, they manage to exceed all expectations of defeat by lynching not only the baner but the seer as well. |
| Players (11): BrenBarn BoingBall maga_dogg josh_g Bishop Stacey Marvin ParserGirl devil Hloif Ender |
| "it is -- IF YOU'RE A WOLF!!!" |
| The game comes to a swift end when the seer identifies the lone wolf. |
| Players (6): Marvin BrenBarn Thrax Stacey maga_dogg DavidW |
| "Lectures...in HELL" |
| I show my lack of seer skillz by identifying people who immediately die. The villagers win anyway. ParserGirl is crafty. |
| Players (6): maga_dogg DavidW BrenBarn Thrax Stacey ParserGirl |
| "Yes. Stand in awer of my subtlety. No, wait, ignore my subtlety." |
| We stand in awe of Bishop's subtlety. Not only do the wolves win, they both survive. |
| Players (11): andyf schep Thazz BrenBarn LoneCleric Bishop Guest1 julian Marten Gunther traevoli |
| "I doubt my sister would smile at my murder." |
| A relatively high newbie-to-veteran count doesn't prevent a fairly thoughtful game. |
| Players (7): Thazz julian traevoli Guest1 Marten BrenBarn DGlasser |
| "Seriously, everyone, I'm a wolf. Vote me." |
| Skip brings his apparently-not-friend Necro-Phil onto the MUD and the two of them play out their game of vengeance against an epic backdrop of werewolf. |
| Players (10): maga_dogg ctate BrenBarn Hloif Emily Skip Duchess DavidW BoingBall Necro-Phil |
| "But I hate dogs!!" |
| Luck and logic lead the villagers to victory. |
| Players (7): Bishop Miseri BrenBarn maga_dogg BoingBall Ander jwalrus |
| "I suspect... HIM!" |
| A role-packed game allows me to exercise my fiendish wolf skillz. |
| Players (6): Miseri BoingBall Ander BrenBarn maga_dogg Bishop |
| "Well, this is silly. We need to vote for somone." |
| A fair amount of seesaw voting culminates in a wolf win. |
| Players (9): BrenBarn Hloif schep Ender Marvin ctate julian maga_dogg andyf |
| "I'm not saying I'm not, but you and I are both one or the other." |
| We get 3 seer claims, even though we only have 1 fool and 1 seer. The wolves win, but Waldo crashes. |
| Players (9): ctate maga_dogg Hloif Julian schep BoingBall andyf BrenBarn DavidW |
| "maybe that's because he's dead." |
| The seer fumbles a bit, and the wolf takes advantage. |
| Players (6): BrenBarn maga_dogg Hloif Julian schep DavidW |
| "it seems we are back to total randomness" |
| We try the old vote-then-unvote-and-see-who-pounces trick a few times and throw in a bit of halfhearted logic. |
| Players (7): Hloif BoingBall BrenBarn Hjalfi devil maga_dogg brendan |
| "What'd I ever do to you? Besides accusing you, I mean." |
| RogerCarbol acts wacky but for some reason everybody lynches me instead. Then the wolves win. |
| Players (8): Ryan BrenBarn Bishop maga_dogg BoingBall Cube Emily RogerCarbol |
| "actually we can assume NOTHING!" |
| One of the all-time classic werewolf games. Random lynching, lying Masons, and a newbie named Cube who survives for 3 days as the lone wolf and achieves glorious wictory. |
| Players (13): Bishop BrenBarn schep Matthew Ender Emily maga_dogg BoingBall Cube RogerCarbol trikiw Ryan LoneCleric |
| "now I feel all magisterial" |
| I get to be the magistrate. That's cool. We lynch thr wolf by pure luck. |
| Players (6): Miseri BoingBall Ander BrenBarn maga_dogg Bishop |
| "Aren't you? This is dangerous." |
| We have to lynch a villager for meta-game reasons, but we wind up lynching the wolf anyway. |
| Players (6): BrenBarn Matthew schep Julian reillyb maga_dogg |
| "I'm *not* a wolf now." |
| It comes down to a 50/50 choice and we guess right. |
| Players (6): maga_dogg schep BrenBarn Julian reillyb ParserGirl |
| "well that's helpful, considering it was meaningless then" |
| The villagers use logic to figure out the seer/fool relationship. |
| Players (7): schep BrenBarn ParserGirl reillyb Julian LoneCleric caleb |
| "those dreams of blood came true" |
| A long, long game. |
| Players (9): schep BrenBarn Julian caleb reillyb maga_dogg Marvin devil Banichi |
| "Likewise, it's possible that I really am Herr Soze." |
| The villagers use logic to figure out the seer/fool relationship. |
| Players (8): Marvin BrenBarn maga_dogg reillyb Julian caleb Bishop Ghogg |
