Kinky is beyond language! It was the first word the first caveman uttered to the first cavewoman when she slapped his balls with a large trout.
When?What happened to you Jonti? You used to be (somewhat) civilised
I ate a swede today and it empowered my inner VIKING!

I empower your inner Viking.
Found it!
@pevergreen: I remember you talked about banning PMs for your upcoming game and that thread is one of the reasons why a lot of players oppose the idea. However the GM was a muppet so maybe the problem was with the GM and not the rule.
And from that thread this little gem:
For those who enjoy GM trashing there are more where that came from...
Also I'm
IN!
I don't remember saying that.
My rules forbid the revealing of seer results/role PM info privately, thats all. I encourage PMs.
Looks to me that the main failure of that game was that he changed a rule midgame and then tried to cover his ass by saying he intended it to always be like that.
After only three pages of mild debate:
:laugh:
As for the game:
AOK called the actual problem in post 6:
Other than that genuine problem, and the use of a sorceror in addition to no PMs, all I see is a lot of pensioners whinging about the furniture being moved.
Good grief... a General Hannibal and a Hannibal Barca?
Oh, and the GM said (in the rules) there was one more wolf than there actually was. Meh. The no PM thing seemed to go without a hitch, and having one less wolf to find than you thought wasn't that big a deal, even if it's lousy GMing. Far worse was the ghost talk, that was directly related to the game.
Hm... and apparently the GM made up the whole toss a coin to decide in a tie on the fly, to stop two dead baddies day one. Bad GMing, but again, nothing to do with no PMs. And the GM denied that was why he tried it.
Nope, all I see is a lot of old timers moaning.

Nah, it was the easiest wolf win evar. Honestly we just sat back and let the village rip itself to shreds.
What happened was you see [Old WW Vet mode]
Gonzo got butthurt because the village destroyed his WW pack in the lite game before - which was easy 'cos he's rubbish not for anything devious - and os he decided that it was down to the village being able to PM each other to form a justice league. He wanted a "better" WW game which had no PMs from seer or villagers (utterly unenforceable but that's another story) and it blatently wasn't. Gonzo being a worse GM than Mr Sticky came second to the crapness of the format IMO
I fully sympathise with Gonzo. JLs are the bane of these forums, they really do make for stupid games when they're on a roll. The only question is how to give the village an alternative that requires more effort on their part, while still being effective. There are ways to do it without removing PMs, but it does make for a more interesting dynamic, and solves the JL problem.
That's why you have to get smart wolves.
Gonzo's problem wasn't the JL it was that Ray Charles could see he was a wolf!
I've won a lite as a wolf in the JL by the way
