The year is 297 AC. Robert of House Baratheon, First of His Name, overthrew the Mad King and crowned himself King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men fourteen years ago. Westeros is in the longest summer in living memory, having lasted eight years so far. All is prosperous in the Seven Kingdoms. Or so it seems.

Beneath this apparent golden age, however, political tensions are broiling. King Robert longs for the adventurous days of old while he grows fat and neglects his duties to both his family and the realm. His consort Cersei, backed by Lannister gold and "woman's weapons," has ambitions and delusions of grandeur of her own. And a small, unknown, yet devoted faction works hard to restore the "rightful" heirs to the realm—under their influence, of course. Still others have numerous interests and goals of their own.

When Robert goes out for a hunt in the kingswood, leaving his Hand of the King, Jon Arryn, in charge as usual, these powerful groups decide that it is time to seize the opportunity to gain more power. The political backstabs, deals, and accusations that now proceed have yet to be seen...

A Note on Spoilers

This game is set immediately prior to the events of A Game of Thrones, or Season 1 of Game of Thrones, in an alternate timeline. This should avoid most spoilers, though by necessity there are a few mostly minor spoilers form Book/Season 1 that may be revealed, including in the player roles list. I will either spoiler-tag or blank out (in color) any spoilers beyond that in my writing, and request that you do so as well, if you feel the need to post something involving a spoiler.

Factions and Roles

King Robert's Faction
His Grace Robert of House Baratheon, First of His Name, King of the Andals and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm
Not a role, he's off on a hunt in the kingswood again.
Jon Arryn, Lord of the Eyrie, Hand of the King
Robert's chief advisor. Currently ruling in his stead (to be fair he really does that all the time). Can choose to find one person guilty of crimes every three days, sentencing them to join the Night's Watch.
Ser Barristan Selmy, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard
Celebrated knight and leader of the Kingsguard. For some reason he didn't go on Robert's hunt. Can protect one person every night from being scanned or accused. In contact with Jon Arryn.
Pro-Baratheon Courtiers
Ordinary members of the royal court who are more in favor of King Robert and his government. They are roughly double the number of pro-Lannister courtiers.

Lannister Faction
Cersei Lannister, Queen Consort
Every three nights, Queen Cersei can choose to use her womanly guile and Lannister wealth to gain information about one person's role. She can contact people she scans if they are in the Lannister faction.
Ser Jaime Lannister, Kingsguard
The Kingslayer. Loves his sister Cersei very much. Just like Ser Barristan, he also didn't go on Robert’s hunt for whatever reason. Every other night, he can choose to protect one person from being scanned or accused, or frame one person for crimes and make them take the black. In contact with Cersei and Pycelle.
Grand Maester Pycelle
An old man, in his position for a long time, yet loyal to the Lannisters. Every four nights, he can choose to drug up to two people, negating any of their nighttime abilities. In contact with Cersei and Jaime.
Pro-Lannister Courtiers
Ordinary members of the royal court who are more in favor of the Lannisters and their ambitions. They are roughly half the number of pro-Baratheon courtiers.

Varys' faction
Varys, master of whisperers
The king's spymaster. Secretly a [book-only spoiler] fAegon loyalist seeking to sow chaos in the royal court and small council. Can frame one person every night for crimes, sending them to the Wall. If he is discovered, he will not be able to be neutralized and sent to the Wall until his little birds are found.
Little birds
Two of Varys' spies. Can collectively choose to scan one person every night for their role, but cannot contact them because they are mute. They are young children, but somehow have managed to get themselves admitted into the royal court during the day. In contact with each other and Varys.

Neutrals & Unknowns
Yoren, wandering crow
Night's Watch recruiter. May (forcibly) "encourage" one person to take the black every four days. (Yes I know that doesn't make any sense canonically but whatever.) Personally wins the game if 7 people take the black, at which point he returns to the Wall. Will be allowed to return to the Wall if framed or accused.
Petyr Baelish, master of coin
Littlefinger, Westeros' greatest social climber. Friendly with any and all. Can scan one person every other night, and can choose to reveal his role to any person he scans. That person can allow him onto their side, so that he can win with them, or choose to reveal his unlawful espionage and send him to the Wall. Do note that Littlefinger can choose to continue contacting people of another faction that he has scanned even after joining a faction, thus allowing him to join multiple sides.

The Rules

1. Day phases last for roughly 48 hours, and night phases last for roughly 24 hours. The game begins in a day phase, which will last for 72 hours.

2. During the day phase, players vote to accuse one person of criminal guilt. I would prefer if you vote using this format:
Code: [Select]
[b]Accuse: taulover[/b]The person with the plurality of votes shall be sent to the Wall. In the event of a tie, one of the tied players will be selected at random.

3. Players may not vote "no lynch;" however, they may choose to abstain from voting. Note that an abstention counts towards your inactivity lynch (see below)!

4. During both the day and night phases, the appropriate power roles can use their abilities by sending a message to me in the preexisting PM chain.

5. You are not allowed to reveal your role unless acting under the specific abilities of your power role. If you reveal your role, you will immediately be removed from the game.

6. If you do not vote for two consecutive day phases, you will be lynched for inactivity and removed from the game. Players with an inactivity lynch will not be sent to the Wall.

7. Players who are at the Wall or dead should refrain from posting, with the exception of a final goodbye post (no spoiling the game, of course). If you do post when at the Wall or dead, please preface your post with one of these respective tags, as is applicable to your situation:
Code: [Select]
[b]NIGHT'S WATCH[/b]
Code: [Select]
[b]DEAD[/b]
8. A faction wins if it consists of at least two-thirds of the remaining players. Losing survivors will be given the opportunity to go to the Wall, if they so desire.


The day phase begins now and will end three days from now, on Tuesday, January 30 at 7:30 PM PST.

Awwwww. I got the two sets of rules mixed up. XIV.2 does allow for no lynch, and since it was the one I read secondly, I guess I mixed the two up.

Well since Gatto hasn't actually called for my head in a serious fashion, I'm just gonna Vote:Abstain for now then.

Very excited about this game! Looks like a lot of time went into planning this, and this is definitely one of the largest games we've had. Good luck, everyone! And remember to bold your votes, so taulover doesn't accidentally overlook it.

And if my calculations are correct, the factions have the following number of members:
Baratheon Faction: 9 (Arryn, Selmy, 7 courtiers)
Lannister Faction: 7 (Cersei, Jaime, Pycelle, 4 courtiers)
Varys Faction: 3 (Varys, 2 little birds)
Yoren
Petyr Baelish

If nobody votes for anybody, there's just going to be a random execution by taulover at the end of the phase right? That sounds super boring to me! Isn't that super boring? I feel like maintaining interest in the game is a duty we all have collectively, so to spice things up I have decided to cast the first stone.

Here's a random number I generated between 1 and 21, inclusive. On my honor, it is the first result given from the random number generator.

Hmm, voting to abstain might not be such a good idea, since it's not the same as a no-lynch vote. It simply shows you're not voting, and that means any other person with a vote (in this case, Aragonn) gets put on the chopping block. Therefore, I vote: Gerrick, for no other reason than the fact that I like to annoy my boss in the ministry of culture. It should also jump-start discussion, somewhat, admittedly at the risk of my own head.

I’m excited for this game! We’ve got 21 people and we’ve got two rounds, so this is going to be a long game. And since each day is 48 hours and night is 24. I’d rather not abstain and get closer to an inactivity lynch, so I’ll use a random number generator.

By the Seven, you must certainly be aware that you cannot invoke the holy rite of trial by combat on behalf of another! Let them speak for themselves.

Seriously though this game should have such an option in the event of a tie or something. The players each choose a champion, and then the moderator chooses a video game that the champions play against each other.

I believe Pengu tried to do that once, but there were enough complaints about lag, skill, lack of access to a PC with internet, etc. that he ended up falling back to using RNG instead.

Oh wait, you said a champion. My apologies.

Well, I suppose that might work, though I don't particularly like how that extends the day phases unpredictably (especially since I'd like the two games to sync up to make Wall arrivals seamless). Plus I don't like changing rules once a game has already started.

The truest example of a Trial by Combat is Rock Paper Scissors.
Both just PM their choice to taulover, and the winner is the first to two. There's no lag, skill, or whatever attached to that, particularly since if they don't send in their choices by a certain time, they're considered to have no champion and thus forfeited. Problem solved.

That's still potentially adding days to a single phase, especially if there's multiple tied votes, while everyone else just waits. That's not even considering the massive potential for ties. And making the time limit any shorter than that would be favoring more active users.

"Pick a number between 1 and 1000" might work though, but at that point, you're arguably just using the tied players as an incredibly slow and not-that-interesting RNG...

The object of trial by combat is not to determine whose random number is better, but to determine whose case is blessed by the Seven. If the Seven will it, even the weakest combatant's sword (or mouse) will be blessed by divine providence and strike fast and true.

Another option would be to use the set up for Gerrick's Arena games. No blocking, no classes, just attacks until somebody dies. I'm not sure how applicable that would be, however.

Also, the trial can be performed during the night phase - the accused would be imprisoned during this time and wouldn't be able to use their powers. The results are announced at the beginning of the day phase. Then you won't be slowing the game down.

The same is true for a random number generator. The atmospheric noise filtering in as seeds for the random selection reflect the will of the Seven as well.

And if that lottery doesn't count, then arguably any other game doesn't either, unless we go for full authenticity and get two champions to actually physically duel one another.

Divine providence cannot lie in numbers - "God does not play dice", as some dude once said.  :D

The night phase is still only 24 hours.

Seems like enough time, champions can refuse to participate. If there are no champions to be found, then of course the trial must proceed through the normal judicial process of "taulover picks a number".

Anyway, this is probably a discussion for another time. I'd like to hash out ideas like this with someone someday though. I think with enough effort, proper planning of such an event is possible.

Ah, I think I was a bit confused about which game you were referring to. Thinking back to Doc's rock-paper-scissors proposal, for example, finding one person to be lynched out of many might take ages.

Yeah, it's certainly something to look into for future games, and definitely quite workable. My biggest concern was with implementing it into the current game: with the game already running, I don't think it's best to make rule changes, especially if we went with your proposed night phase solution (which, by taking multiple players out of the game for a round, might majorly alter the dynamic).

Ah, by "this game" in your initial suggestion post I thought you meant Werewolf XIV.1, not Werewolf in general. :D (And I think that from then on the conversation did steer a bit more to be specific for this game, partly due to my input.)

Upon a closer review of the rules, an abstention counts towards an inactivity lynch. Since I'd like to survive past round two, since it looks like I'll miraculously survive past round 1, I'm going to select someone who hasn't yet been voted for as a safe bet to lynch.
Incidentally, I'll also point out that said person said yesterday they don't actually have time for Werewolf.
So I'm switching my vote to Accuse: Cooki.
(don't actually join me in voting for said person because if they don't have time for round 1, they won't have time for The Wall, and an inactivity lynch removes you from contention completely, whereas a regular lynch doesn't)

EDIT: Oh as an aside - do people reveal their roles upon being forced to take the Black, or are they still secret until either they die at the Wall/win?

SECONDARY EDIT: Changed 'vote' to 'accuse' to fit Tau's preferred format a la Wintermoot down the thread)

I think I'll Accuse: Laurentus...obviously there isn't going to be much in the way of good reasoning on the first round, but even then his reasoning is on the casual side.

Besides, using Aragonn's reasoning, it'll "keep things interesting". :P

As an aside, I've noticed it can be hard to keep track of who voted for who while a day turn is going on, so for future games I might code something up future WW hosts can use where people vote at the top of the topic (where the map in Mage Wars is), and it keeps track of the votes for each turn.

Ser Aron Santagar was walking through the halls of the Red Keep, carrying some swords out for practice. Today was a good day. He'd get some practice done, help train some of the newer guards, have some fun doing that too.

He was passing by the Tower of the Hand, humming a tune to himself, when suddenly, a group of Arryn and Lannister retainers surrounded him.

"What is it?" Santagar asked them with a smile.

"Drop your weapons," one of the Arryn men said. "You will come with us."

"These are just blunt training weapons. I'm just taking them out for a bit of sparring, see?" He swung up one of the swords to show them, and—oh cock I took the wrong weapons—one of the Lannister guards knocked the swords out of his hands and the others pinned him to the ground.

"Look, this is all a misunderstanding, sers, I can explain..." Santagar trailed off has he was lifted up and led away to the Traitor's Walk. "I AM THE MASTER-AT-ARMS! YOU WILL NOT DEFY ME!"

Elsewhere in the castle that day...

"Yes, I know that it's an honor to serve in the Night's Watch," Ser Barristan the Bold was saying. "But I am sworn the serve the king, and will do so until I die."

"At least come an' see what it's like up there?" Yoren asked. "You don't have t' stay, plenty of noblemen come up there just to take a look."

"Well, I suppose that wouldn't hurt..." Selmy nodded.

Ser Aron Santagar, master-at-arms for the Red Keep and a pro-Baratheon courtier, a.k.a. Charles Watson-Turing-Donald, has been voted off to be sent to the Wall.

(The Seven have favored Crushita and his honor remains intact.)

Additionally, Ser Barristan Selmy, Lord Commander of the Kingsguard, of the pro-Baratheon faction, a.k.a. PowerPAOK, has been recruited by Yoren to go to the Wall.

(Charles and PowerPAOK will receive their new roles and a PM notification once Werewolf XIV.2 begins.)

It is now the night phase! This phase will last for 24 hours and end on Wednesday, January 30 at 7:30 PST.

Night's Watch

Selmy arrived at Castle Black alongside Yoren, but was immediately swept away by the news of a raid over the wall. After experiencing the fiery spirit of the wildlings, but more importantly hearing, and eventually coming to learn first hand, the tales they shared, Barristan arrived at the realisation that being a knight of the Kingsguard had nothing on being the shield that guards the realms of men.

I suppose if one wishes to interpret guarding all men as a higher duty than guarding the King specifically, far be it from me to tell a knight of Ser Barristan's stature what is honorable and what is not.
I suppose Ser Jaime shall be the new Lord Commander then, as the most senior remaining member of the Kingsguard.
The Red Keep shall need a new Master at Arms, though. Perhaps one of those Braavosi one hears so much talk of?

Back to business: seeing as we just lost one of our defenders (and also the only one, if I'm not mistaken) during the previous day phase, it's odd that no killings took place. The ruffians are either staying their blades, or they slept as well as we did. Thoughts?

Sometimes a still pond hides deep currents, and long summers bear long winters. Despite Ser Barristan's withdrawal, there remain a few methods of protection on the field, and the small council holds its meetings in secret.

Hmm. I'm debating whether that constitutes a tacit admission of which side you're on, or, more likely for the Red Keep, an attempt to obfuscate by suggesting the opposite - or suggesting you were suggesting the opposite, and being someone else entirely.
Tactically astute, were it not for the point I'm immediately about to make.
I am curious, however, if this is not because some people have yet to realise that, rather than being a traditional game of Werewolf, this is in fact a game where there are no wolves among us (them all being up in Winterfell, which I am just now realizing is the joke), and it's two factions (and 5 other actors) vying for influence. As it stands, both factions are balanced in influence, what with the two losses to the Baratheon faction at the close of the day, leaving it 7:7, with 4 unaffiliated and one possibly dubiously so. Considering that the rules require the surviving faction to be '2/3s of surviving players' - we're going to see quite a few Lords and possibly a few Ladies forced to take the Black yet (or, I suppose, become a Silent Sister for the Ladies), since at the very least that will require us to be cut down to 10 (or 11, depending on how Tau rounds).

I'll note that this is far more thinking than I'm used to applying in round 2, so apologies if I'm wrong in any particulars.

Incidentally, I Accuse: Cooki once again because there are no possible consequences for doing so (what with him having dipped out of the game), especially now that it's the day phase and I can actually legally do that.

The win condition is for one faction to consist of exactly two-thirds or more of the population. No rounding up allowed (using your example, 7/11<2/3 so it is not yet a win, but 7/10>2/3 so it is).

Second, I don't know if this is allowed, and I will take it down if it's not, but a tactic I use in Town Of Salem, is when the killing team does not kill, sometimes the killers are inactive (*cough cough*). I just wanted to point this out there.

Post by: Gerrick on February 01, 2018, 05:00:58 PM
I think that technically in this game, Varys' faction would be the werewolves since they all are in communication from the start, they can frame one person every night, and they are very few in number.

And Barristan Selmy was the Baratheon faction's only defender, but Jaime Lannister also functions as the Lannister faction's defender.

The only people who can frame during the night are (correct me if I'm wrong) Varys and Jaime Lannister.

For Varys: either he chose not to frame someone (very unlikely as there would be no reason not to), he was inactive during the night phase, Pycelle negated his ability, or Jaime Lannister defended his target.

For Jaime Lannister: either he chose to do nothing to save his ability for tomorrow night, he was inactive during the night phase, or he defended someone.

So inactivity on their parts is definitely possible but also not the only likely scenario. The inactives during the last day phase, by the way, were Bootsie, Cooki, Elbbsas, and Justinian Ezkantion.

FYI Cooki has stated his intention to not play in the game, and will be lynched for inactivity this round. That is why Doc is voting for him, and why Doc is asking that nobody else vote for him, because we do not want an inactive player at the Wall.

(Hmm, considering the influx of votes on Cooki, I'm tempted to make an arbitrary rule clarification to lynch inactive players first, and then pick someone else to be voted off...  >:D)

Well, hey, someone has to keep you all on your toes. :P

Fair enough, I had forgotten Jaime can also defend. That's probably what happened last night. Suppose we won't have much to work with more people get sent to the wall.

Yeah, I don't know if I want to just vote Cooki.. It's basically a Vote: No Lynch, isn't it? Since it's known Cooki will be lynched regardless.
I don't know who to vote for yet though. A few arguments have been brought forward. I like Gerrick's reasoning, but it seems like voting for an inactive player is pretty similar to voting for Cooki?

However, it seems decidedly odd that nobody was sent to the wall by Varys last night.. if both Jaime and Pycelle used their abilities then 2 people's powers were nullified and 1 person was protected. We have 19 people left in the game, and 16 of them have roles unknown to the Lannisters. Pycelle's nullification therefore had a chance of negating Varys's ability between 11.33% and 12.5%. Jaime's ability can protect one person, and the chance that it was the one Varys targeted is.. I'm not quite sure, I think it's just 1/16 or 6.25%.

In aggregate, if Pycelle, Varys, and Jaime all used their abilities, the chances that nobody was sent to the wall is between 17.58% and 18.75%.

Conclusion: Varys very likely did not use their ability. Honestly, I doubt Pycelle even used his ability. It seems pretty wasteful to drop it on the first night with 0 intel, since it can only be used once every 4 days. That makes it even less likely that Varys used their ability.
It seems quite odd that he wouldn't use his ability doesn't it? He only wins if everyone else loses right? It's like a wolf not eating someone.

taulover: When are seer abilities activated? Before or after powers are used? For example, if a little bird identified someone, could Varys then use that information to target them? Or will the little bird report back in the morning and Varys can only decide to use it the following night phase?

Seer abilities are reported at the end of the night phase/beginning of the day phase.

In that case, I think the actual chance that Pycelle's ability would have hit Varys is 12.5%, making the aggregate 18.75%, assuming Jaime also used his ability. Up there ^ I confusingly ran two sets of numbers for Pycelle, one assuming Cersei successfully identified a Lannister and one assuming she didn't, and even those were wrong.

I stand by my conclusion though: I don't think Varys used his ability last night.

Would you consider hiding the wall thread? I don't think it's a great idea to have people in King's Landing reading conversations between characters at the wall and possibly figuring out roles before they've even been sent to the wall and given a role themselves. How would they know what's going on when they're so far away?

That would potentially mean that new arrivals at the Wall would have a ton of reading to catch up on when they arrive, which (considering how such things generally play out things like established RPs) may make it difficult for people to begin participating. Plus, unless the whole game were done in a PM thread (which is obviously not ideal), Wintermoot would have to do a bunch of stuff with forum masking/permissions. Overall, not worth the trouble it'd be, IMO.

Hmmmm, it seems odd to me that a player as astute as Laurentus would forget that a member of the kingsguard can defend a player, and then also conclude that it's probably what happened even though there's only a small chance of that being the case. It's much more likely that Varys simply didn't use his power.

I suck at maths, though. Full scale mathematical analysis has never been my strong suit in this game. I faintly recall making a joke about how smart people can appear suspicious when really they're just being momentarily stupid, in one of the previous games. And I'm not even that smart.

I was not expecting a bandwagon stockpile after my post, that or I am becoming unnecessarily suspicious.

To answer the question of why I said "theatrics or actual discussion", the way the two of you interacted aligns with how I would see two collaborators distancing from each other by engaging in harmless questioning of each other and and responding with cordial denial. That said, I have no evidence (yet?) to substantiate so my intuition can be wrong. A random theory of sorts?

I figured that's what you meant, you maybe thought: hey, here's two maybe collaborators, I'll vote for one of them, doesn't really matter which? I don't think anyone really has much more to go on than intuitions at this point, honestly. So, my vote is open to changing if a more likely candidate comes along, and am also open to further discussion.

If, as I believe, Varys really didn't use his power last night, the game as it stands really confuses me... Can anyone think of a good reason why he wouldn't, other than being inactive? He doesn't have any allies that his bird can discover, so a shot in the dark that is guaranteed to hit an enemy seems like a great choice. Unless he was maybe worried that he would accidentally hit Yoren, Arryn, or Jaime, all three of which have the capability to inadvertently aid him in sending the lot of us to the wall? The thing is, all three of them could just as likely send one of his birds to the wall, so.. I don't know? Maybe Jaime really did save whoever Varys targeted, or maybe Pycelle nullified Varys..

A clever one, that spider, perhaps simply no one fell into his web. For some reason Laurentus's reaction made me suspicious of him, but I really don't have anything to go on upon reflection.

This way they both have three votes, and if it holds RNG can sort out the details.

To go into more detail: so far the interaction between me and Evelynx has not veered into the interrogative, except for the current round. Wintermoot already indicated some suspicion of me back in round 1, which I felt would be best ignored until it became a problem. It did become a problem in the current round, as first Evelynx showed suspicion by questioning whether I would really make such a mistake (and to answer your question, yes, I would, as I have often made mistakes with the rules in these games), and then Sapphiron starting a bandwagon. Wintermoot, if he is linked with Sapphiron, might decide to avoid looking like he's stockpiling with Sapphiron, and decide to go for Doc, instead. I am still unclear as to why people feel Doc is suspicious, as they have declined to share their reasoning, which makes me wonder whether any reasoning exists.

I continue to be really confused by the language everyone is using to talk about this game, because it's all being framed in terms of 'innocence' and 'guilt' - which makes sense for an ordinary game of Werewolf, but here there are no werewolves. It's a game of factions, except in the case of 4 individuals.
It's rather more honest to just say 'look I'm hoping my faction wins and I'm pretty sure you're not in my faction, so here's a vote your way'.

With that in mind, I think that explains any reasoning of suspicion - it's not 'I fear that you're going to get us come night', it's 'I want my faction to win and the best way to do that is to get rid of everyone not in it'.
That and 'we talk a lot so we're visible'.

My only reasoning for Doc is that he was like "Jaime should be leader of the Kingsguard now" and then "Baratheons and Starks are totes best buddies", which at first pass seems like he was supporting both factions, which means he might be a neutral faction.. Thin evidence, I know, especially since it seems that Doc, at the time, didn't get the joke I was making (he posted that he got it later).

Pure RP, probably, but still.. it's something.

That seems weird, considering Elb hasn't yet voted, or even said anything, and is on the chopping block as far as the inactivity lynch goes.

Unrelated, but in the interest of preserving my metaphorical neck (metaphorical in the sense that it's not like we're being executed), I have to switch to Accuse: Laurentus.
Before also noting that if the goal is to find and eliminate a Varys, you have to find the little birds first, because per the rules,
If he is discovered, he will not be able to be neutralized and sent to the Wall until his little birds are found.
Unless, I guess, the plan is to have Pycelle slip him some milk of the poppy on the regular.

Gyles Rosby was coughing, as usual, when the Arryn guards barged into his room.

"What... cough is the meaning of this... cough?!" he demanded weakly.

Then, Jon Arryn entered.

"You will come with us," the Hand of the King said.

Unable to struggle, the sickly old man was escorted out.

"I have found that you have been conspiring with others to overthrow the king in his absence," Lord Arryn stated. He paused for a moment. "In the name His Grace Robert, First of His Name, I hereby sentence you to the Wall."

"What? No!" Rosby replied. Was it his closeness with the Lannisters? Were they up to something? Thoughts raced through the nobleman's head as the guards escorted him away and out of the Red Keep.

Jon Arryn watched as his men escorted Rosby away. This world was too paranoid for its own good, but such measured needed to be taken. Jon turned away, seeking to return to the Tower of the Hand to get some work done.

As he did so, he saw the Kingsguard, without their Lord Commander, striding towards him.

"Good day, sers—" Jon Arryn began.

"We saw you, acting in the 'king's name,' delivering some so-called justice, without any explanation," said Ser Mandon Moore. That turncloak. Should've never brought him to King's Landing in the first place.

"I am empowered by His Grace to act in his name," Jon Arryn responded.

"Unfortunate that His Grace is not here with us currently," Ser Meryn Trant remarked.

The Kingsguard escorted Jon away, much as his guard had done to Rosby just moments before.

Jon Arryn, Hand of the King, on the King's faction, a.k.a. Laurentus, has been voted off to be sent to the Wall.

Before that, however, Gyles Rosby, a pro-Lannister courtier, a.k.a. Sapphiron, was sentenced by Lord Arryn to take the black.

Werewolf XIV.2 will begin momentarily.

Additionally, the following people have been lynched for inactivity:
Cooki, a little bird, of Varys' faction
Bootsie, a.k.a. a pro-Lannister courtier
and executioner Ilyn Payne
Justinian Ezkantion, a.k.a. Varys

As is usual in Werewolf games, inactive power roles will be replaced by normal players. In the interest of maintaining fairness, I will assign one role each from the Baratheon and Lannister factions.

It is now the night phase, which will end roughly 24 hours from now, on Saturday, February 3 at around 7:30 PM PST.

That...certainly explains the inactivity of Varys' faction, what with 2 of its 3 members being absent.
This dramatically complicates matters for the rest of us now, though, since it was 7:7:3:1:1 going into this round.
Now, it will be 5:4:3:1:1, meaning we're going to need to trim down to 8 or 9 (depending on Baelish's actions) in order for one side or another to win the game.
Although now that I examine the rules again - the win condition for both Yoren (7 people take the black - which, does that include him? Can he be the 7th to go to the Wall and thus 'win'? Does it stop the rest of us from winning if he does? Because if so we gotta get him like, now, but if not he's no real threat, since if he wins it automatically trims down part of the court when he auto-leaves for the Wall) and Baelish (be on the winning side) are known (https://youtu.be/foqUPiwMiOM?t=9s), as are the ones for both Lannister and Baratheon courtiers, but we don't have one for Varys and his lot. Which is a little sus if you ask me.
Do I have a target for these suspicions? Er...no. But I have them!

Jon Arryn, Hand of the King, on the King's faction, a.k.a. Laurentus, has been voted off to be sent to the Wall.
Well, who'll be Hand now? The Lord Stark won't exactly be thrilled his foster-father's been forced to take the black, for all he'll be near Winterfell, and King Robert never seemed to have much time for Lord Tywin.
Mayhaps a Martell or a Tyrell. Either would be a good political move.

7 people take the black - which, does that include him? Can he be the 7th to go to the Wall and thus 'win'? Does it stop the rest of us from winning if he does? Because if so we gotta get him like, now, but if not he's no real threat, since if he wins it automatically trims down part of the court when he auto-leaves for the Wall
7 people does not include him, it's a recruitment quota. :P And the game continues even if Yoren wins.

Around sundown...

Grand Maester Pycelle slipped into a room. Looking around, he saw a flask, and slipped a pinch of sweetsleep inside. Surreptitiously, he went back out, and then did the same to another room.

Once the dead was done, he shrunk back into his usual frail appearance and hobbled back to his quarters.

Later that evening...

Yoren heard banging on the door of his guest quarters. "Who's there?" he called, as he rose to open the door.

Ser Jaime Lannister strode in, flanked by Lannister guards. "Your presence is no longer required here, crow," he said.

"Ah, is that so?"

"We have some petty criminals in the dungeon who have already agreed to come with you," the Kingslayer said. "You will leave and return to the Wall in the morning."

Yoren, wandering crow, a.k.a. Doc, has been sent to the Wall by Ser Jaime Lannister.

Furthermore, Grand Maester Pycelle drugged two people to sleep through the night.

It is now the day phase! It will end in two days, on Monday, February 5 at around 7:00 PM PST.

The following people did not vote the previous day phase. They will be lynched for inactivity if they do not vote!

Although now that I examine the rules again - the win condition for both Yoren (7 people take the black - which, does that include him? Can he be the 7th to go to the Wall and thus 'win'? Does it stop the rest of us from winning if he does? Because if so we gotta get him like, now, but if not he's no real threat

How am I not surprised Doc was Yoren what with all these questions  :P
In other news Varys fails to kill send anyone to the wall again. Did Pycelle's brew do the trick? Or is the person just inactive, again. Either way for such a powerful role the threat is certainly failing to materialize :P
I'll hold my vote for the moment until further discussion. I just wanted to point out how I found Doc to be rather funny.

Well, I suppose the cold is where a crow belongs? He's certainly done enough recruiting among King's Landing's finest for one lifetime!

I too will withhold judgement for now, but here's some analysis..

Jaime didn't use his power to defend anyone last night, by Pycelle did drug two people.

There are 14 people left in the game, I think. At least 3 of them (perhaps 4, if Cersei detected a Lannister courtier) are known by Pycelle to be Cersei, Jaime and Pycelle himself. That leaves 10 or 11. I'm assuming that Pycelle doesn't know who Varys is on the basis that if he did, he would have known the first night when Cersei used her seer ability and would have used his nullification earlier (maybe he wouldn't have, I don't know). Which means that in using his ability, Pycelle had a 18-20% chance of getting it right.  Higher than it used to be, but still not very high... The problem with these calculations is we don't know the likelihood that Varys would decide to use his ability..

It still seems unlikely that Pycelle would guess correctly, to me, so maybe we once again have an inactive Varys? I don't know how likely that is, since everyone left in the game has voted at least once. However, on the other side of the equation, the person who is Varys now received less than 24 hours notice that they are the new Varys, and was perhaps thus unable to respond in time.

Post by: Aragonn on February 04, 2018, 04:13:57 AM
I would rather like to believe that Varys was one of the two who were drugged. As unlikely as it is, it's still more practical of an analysis than the new Varys being inactive. Better for the Lannisters to act upon that information than to let it slip by.

Also, great pick, Ser Jaime. Keep up the good work.

Taking the Black

Yoren hadn't managed to get quite as many as he'd hoped, but had some confidence in the quality of the men who  would make the long trek north with him - though he'd hoped for some younger men, who could serve the Watch longer.
Lord Arryn had been an able general for the King, and would doubtless swiftly rise swiftly in the Watch. A knight of Ser Selmy's stature would be an immense boon to the Watch, hopefully drawing in others, while Ser Aron was vain, but a more than able swordsman, and perfect for the Rangers.
Only Lord Rosby seemed as if he might be ill-fit; his illness would not leave him well-suited to the cold of the north, but he had an able mind, and would doubtless be a suitable commander in the Builders.
Still - the intrigues of the Court might yet see more men sent to aid the Watch. Rumor had it Mance Rayder was building an army out there...


I sort of figured that would happen when I was on the chopping block with Laurentus. But I hoped.
At least I managed to double my previous best. Second round, baby!

Post by: Gerrick on February 04, 2018, 08:54:02 PM
Hmm, and I don't think it's possible that the Lannisters could know the identity of Varys via scan by Cersei since the new roles were assigned before she would've had a chance to scan him and relay the info to Pycelle (and I highly doubt that if Cersei had scanned a courtier that taulover would make them a new member of the Varys faction). So I'll have to agree with Evelynx that Pycelle would've had to have been quite lucky in his choice to negate the powers of Varys.

In my opinion, an inactive Varys would have been more likely as he was previously a courtier who had no night phase abilities. Add on top the short notice of role change, and there's a likely scenario. Don't know how you'd be able to tell who was inactive during the night phase, though, so that information probably isn't very useful.
Title: A Werewolf of Ice and Fire: King's Landing (Werewolf XIV.1)
Post by: Aragonn on February 05, 2018, 12:35:33 AM
Of course it's more likely to have an inactive Varys than for a shot in the dark to work. It's always going to be more likely. The math will never change to be in favor of the drugging. That doesn't change the fact that two people were drugged and nothing happened. To not act upon this information is to invite tragedy. Inaction will cost more.

Great point Gerrick. I think that Pycelle just guessed, and it's pretty likely that he guessed wrong. Along with the fact (as you mentioned and I reiterate) that there was fairly short notice given to the new Varys, I believe that the new Varys simply did not act.

This means that he probably WILL act tonight, so we should try to develop some sort of way to figure out who his little birdies are. In the meantime, I believe Varys can be exposed by a successful vote against him, though he won't be sent to the wall until his little birdies are out of the picture. @taulover: is my belief correct? If we do vote for Varys, will he then be "exposed"? In that case, will the second place target be sent to the wall?

I'm going to randomly pick among the players who were inactive last phase:

Accuse: Hydra

I will just repeat my last guess and vote lynch Mathyland.  Since he was inactive he may have been a Varys or a bird.  Although by that logic so could Gerrick and Hydra and I could have been Pycelle.  This is weak reasoning unfortunately but I would rather not abstain this day.  I hope my weak reasoning proves correct.

The Lannisters know who Pycelle drugged. That's at least three people. Three votes towards the suspected people. You can't tell me they'll just ignore this development. It's suicide.

@Kane lives By anyone's reasoning, even I could be Varys or a little bird. Doesn't make it right, just saying people don't have the faintest clue right now and should be taking relative information and applying it to a strategy.

Title: A Werewolf of Ice and Fire: King's Landing (Werewolf XIV.1)
Post by: Imaginative Kane on February 05, 2018, 03:45:07 AM
This is going to be some interesting math.  There are 21 players and 10 power roles.  The rest are courtiers that are either pro Baratheon or pro Lannister with the Baratheons being roughly double the Lannisters in quantity.  This would mean 6 Baratheons and 5 Lannisters in a situation with no power inactivity lynches.  However since 2 power roles were lynched for inactivity, that messes up the formula a bit.

Currently there are 13 players in King's Landing.  7 of these players are power roles.  With 3 courtiers being out of the game.  Ordinarily there would be 5 Baratheon and 3 Lannister courtiers left, however the inactivity of the Varys' Faction means that some number of courtiers or power roles have had their roles replaced.  How many we have no idea.

Frankly, I have no idea who may be what at the moment.  I was beginning to suspect Doc and Laurentus before they departed for the Wall.  Other than that I am not sure who to suspect.

In the interest of not dying by inactivity or lynching, I’ll accuse Hydra.

Doc had a player count earlier that seems to be correct. It’s 5:4:3:0:1 right now (after accounting for Doc’s death). There’s 7 power roles left and 6 courtiers left (1 for Lannister and 5 for Baratheon).

Varys is a eunuch. Last night someone was made into Varys due to the original Varys being executed for inactivity, and as they are the most archetypically "Werewolf" character in this variant, we are trying to identify them.

When Varys entered the small council chambers, the others were already there.

"Wonderful that you could join us." Lord Baelish rose to greet him.

"We have become... aware... of your greater schemes and plans," said Lord Renly.

"Pardon?" Varys asked, in a confused voice.

"You undoubtedly understand the grave nature of your crimes," stated Lord Stannis.

"My only allegiance is to the realm!" Varys protested.

"Cease with that ridiculous farce," snapped Ser Jaime, who was standing in for the Lord Commander of the Kingsguard.

"If you insist." Quickly changing direction, Varys remarked calmly, "My little birds would be so distraught if anything happened to me. Indeed, I may even fear for your own personal danger."

Nobody spoke.

"Now, if I may?" Varys began walking towards his seat. Nobody stopped him as he sat.

Hydra has been voted off and revealed to be Varys.

However, he has set up a dead man's switch with his little birds, and as such cannot be sent to the Wall until his little birds are found first!

I guess it's possible that Hydra hid a bird among the voters against him, seeing as he knows he won't go to the wall in the event of him being exposed.. I probably would if I were him, but I like taking risks.

I suggest we all go through these player's history and make a case against each of them, and see who has the strongest one. The clock is ticking, and Varys is in a pretty good position to take this given his protections.. he's free to take potshots while we have to carefully select each target.

Petyr Baelish hurried quietly through a lesser-traveled path in the Red Keep as he made his way toward destination. Now that Varys' machinations had been made public, it was important that he seem a friend to the the Master of Whisperers, in case the eunuch's restoration plans did indeed succeed.

As he neared Varys' quarters, however, he saw guards step out of the shadows. All of a sudden, he was surrounded.

"Where are you going at such a late hour, Littlefinger?" one of the guards (Petyr could not see his face) demanded. "Trying to see the suspected traitor, perhaps?"

Varys said the guards would be taken care of, thought Petyr, cursing himself for trusting the Spider. The guards grabbed him, and Petyr was pulled away.

As the guards outside were taking care of Littlefinger, Varys himself slipped out of his room using his secret back-entrance. He soon made his way to Lord Renly's and Lord Stannis' chambers, and dropped indisputable evidence off Cersei's incestuous adultery.

Come morning, Cersei would no longer be an issue.

"I'm sorry, what?"

"You will join the Silent Sisters, your children will be stripped of their titles and named bastards, and your marriage shall be annulled," repeated Stannis Baratheon.

"By the way, I heard that the Night's Watch is asking for some Silent Sisters, for whatever reason," remarked Renly. "I think you would be the perfect fit at the Wall!"

Petyr Baelish, master of coin, a.k.a. Gerrick, tried to join Varys' faction but was instead sent to the Wall for illegal espionage.

Additionally, Cersei Lannister, Queen Consort, a.k.a. Elbbsas, has had her crimes revealed (or framed, arguably) by Varys and sent to the Wall.

The day phase begins now, and will end in two days, on Thursday, February 8 at around 7:00 PM PST.

Just imagine Bobby Baratheon's reaction when he gets back from his (absurdly long) hunt. "Wait, wait, wait. Y'all are telling me that while I was away, my Foster father took the black, my wife got outed as having an insestuous relationship with her brother, and got sent North,  my kids were revealed not to be my kids, my master of coin tried to throw in with my spy master, and my spy master turned out not to be MY spy master, but a puppet for my most hated enemy? What the fuck have you all been drinking?"

I'll admit, the plausibility of the storyline in this particular game isn't particularly high... :D

I will note, however, that his hunt is by no means absurdly long. By best estimate (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZsY3lcDDtTdBWp1Gx6mfkdtZT6-Gk0kdTGeSC_Dj7WM/edit#gid=8) (link is to a super-detailed ASOIAF timeline, obvious spoiler warning), Bobby B's hunt in AGOT canonically took some three weeks.

Alright... these people tried to protect Varys last vote.

Kane Lives
Hydra is Varys
Crushita
Gerrick was Littlefinger
13ricity

There was some effort to disguise Hydra (Varys) last vote. If I know anything about the way something like that works, what you do if you have a group of people you don't want to appear as if you're part of a group, so you don't just smash your voting bloc down on the issue all at once. However, your situation becomes more desperate as you get closer and closer to losing the vote, so you eventually throw down. This means that later votes originating from a voting bloc are more likely to be part of the voting bloc. Is this sound? I believe it is sound.

Thats some sound evidence, and I will be surprised if I am not sent to the wall this day. I'd also like to point out the people who may have known that Hydra was Varys, so they voted guilty to not seem suspicious. But im going to Accuse: Aragonn because I know that literally whoever I vote, it will not matter.

I've noted that this was a possibility. Especially since there were no consequences to Varys getting revealed... I might suggest that in future games that when Varys is voted out, he goes out and one of the birdies becomes the new Varys.

I am honestly more suspicious of those who voted against Hydra then Mathyland. Simply because the consequence of Hydra being revealed as Varys is that we now know who is trying to murder us instead of it being a faceless threat, and we wasted a day we could have lynched one of his little birds instead. Oddly enough it almost BENEFITS them to know that Hydra is Varys. With that in mind, since there's atleast one vote on him, I'll vote: Aragonn

I think that's going a little far. It doesn't benefit Varys's team for everyone to know who he is... as a result of that vote, when the little birds are gone, Varys will be gone the next day, guaranteed. Certainly, if we knew who the little birds were, we would have voted for one of them instead, but it was still of great benefit to anyone who doesn't want to see us all sent to the wall.

Honestly it seems suspicious that someone who voted to protect the super-wolf (super by virtue of his two protective seers) would say something so preposterous.

I honestly don't understand this "avoid the bandwagon" thing.. It seems like maybe you're just trying to avoid confrontation, perhaps? If you think 13ricity is most likely to be a birdie, then vote for him! Trust your own judgement!

I myself am less sure, I'm actually leaning towards Crushita at this point. I'd rather not change my vote, though, because changing my vote was what fucked me last game. So I can understand that you wouldn't want to change yours.

You people sure like putting me against RNGesus.  Anyway, while I can see what point you're making Evelynx, I'm just trying to think outside the box to try to find the little birds. Though for all I know I'm playing into Hydra's hand anyway. After putting some thought into though, and stopping my mind from assuming its a double bluff(Or a triple bluff, or a quadruple bluff, ect), its more likely that those who voted against Mathyland (Including myself) are more likely to be the little birds. With that in mind I'll vote: 13ricity and see where RNGesus lands us. Unless someone else feels like turning the tide. I won't complain :P

A little bird is spotted (Game of Thrones, "The North Remembers").

After Varys' proclamation, the search for his spies began in earnest. They rounded up servants, questioned them, let them go when they proved innocent.

But soon, they made progress. A child servant was found, cleaning the floors of the Red Keep. When questioned, he did not speak, for he could not speak.

Soon, the child was on a cart on the Kingsroad, heading north to the Wall.

Crushita, one of Varys' little birds, has been voted off and sent to the Wall.

The night phase begins now and will end in about a day, on Friday, February 9 at around 7:00 PM PST.

He had been found. Though he was not surprised. With his master revealed it was only a matter of time. He was lucky to be only sent to the wall, apparently his masters word still held sway, otherwise he would have been killed. His master was nothing if not merciful. The loss of his tongue was a small price to pay to be saved from death, and Varys had always treated him well afterwards. He knew that soon Varys plots would come to fruition, what he had fought for the entire life that he could remember would come to bear. Being caught was just part of this. Being sent to the wall was just part of this. He had orders. Orders that would soon be filled.

This little bird had yet to fly, and by the Seven he would fly. Woe be unto those caught in its claws.

Again, Varys slipped out of his quarters and delivered incriminating information. This time, he left his gift for Jaime Lannister.

In White Sword Tower...

Ser Jaime read the parchment before him.

Interesting.

So the youngest Baratheon, along with his... friend... were planning to destabilize the realm, with the support of one of the Great Houses of Westeros?

Well, he could certainly oblige this request to end their nefarious plans once and for all.

Within the hour, the Kingslayer was leading Lord Renly and Ser Loras to the Traitor's Walk.

Renly Baratheon, a pro-Baratheon courtier, a.k.a. Kane lives, has been incriminated by Varys and sent to the Wall.

Furthermore, Loras Tyrell, a pro-Baratheon courtier, a.k.a. Red Mones, has been arrested by Jaime Lannister and sent to the Wall.

The day phase begins now, and will end in two days, on Sunday, February 9 around 7:00 PM PST.

(heh, how convenient that the two people whom I'd assigned to Renly and Loras got sent to the Wall at the same time)

Thoros of Myr was drinking some wine from his flask when he saw some Baratheon and Lannister guardsmen approaching him, along with the High Septon.

"What's the matter?" he greeted them.

"The small council and I have agreed that, in the interest of the stability of the realm, the faith of R'hllor be banished from King's Landing," the High Septon said, as if reciting from a script.

"I am here by King Robert's invitation! You will not take me!" he exclaimed. "I could cut you all down with my flaming sword if I wanted to!"

The guards moved to take him away.

Thoros of Myr, the Red Priest, a pro-Baratheon courtier, a.k.a. Wintermoot, has been voted off and sent to the Wall.

It is now the night phase! We will begin the next day phase in about 24 hours, on Monday, February 12, at around 7:00 PM PST.

Having heard of the new ban on the Red Faith, a new opportunity came to Varys.

It was well known that a Red Priestess had arrived at Lord Stannis' fief of Dragonstone some time ago, and converted many of Stannis' men, if not Stannis himself. Spin things just the right way, and Stannis Baratheon was seeking to overturn the Faith of the Seven in favor of a terrible, foreign god.

He threw in a few potential links to earlier conspirators such as his brother Renly, and his framing was complete. By dawn, the Master of Ships was no more.

Stannis Baratheon, for the purposes of this game a pro-Baratheon courtier, a.k.a. North, has been incriminated by Varys and sent to the Wall.

The day phase begins now, and ends in about 48 hours, on Wednesday, February 14, at around 7:00 PM PST.

Post by: Evelynx on February 13, 2018, 09:13:13 PM
I don't believe either Mathyland or Aragonn to be the little bird, because both of them took critical parts in both revealing Hydra and voting out the other little bird. I am not the little bird, and I present the same evidence: I cast aspersions on both Hydra and Crushita, and was thus in large part responsible for their lynchings, as it were. Thus we are left to suspect both 13ricity and Gattoartico in equal measure, as they have defended both Hydra and Crushita (in differing degrees, 13ricity for example did vote for Crushita, but only after it was obvious Crushita was going to "win" the vote).

I believe that because 13ricity is the first person to vote following my prompt, they are the least likely to be the little bird. Hydra's strategy at this juncture is likely to wait until one person is voted for that isn't a bird, then pile on the person that is voted for in order to draw the voting into a 50/50 game. That's what I would do. This strategy means that he must reserve his voting bloc until such a pile can occur, which means after the aforementioned vote takes place.

Thus, in my estimation, 13ricity, that leaves you to suspect either Gatto or yourself. You have influenced me by virtue of voting immediately after being prompted instead of waiting to strike as if you were Hydra.

Therefore, I cast my vote for Gatto. It makes the most logical sense at this juncture. There still exists the slim possibility that 13ricity is the bird, but I'm ready to roll those dice.

@13ricity, you may freely vote as you wish, but voting for Gatto would dispel my suspicions towards you entirely.

Accuse: Gattoartico

That logic against me is about as good as if I voted for you because you edited that post, and that makes me suspicious of you. I strongly urge you to vote for Gatto, but of course, I can’t control you.

"Here he is!" called out a Lannister guard.

Vardis Egen, until recently the captain of the Arryn guards, heard the guard yell and ran.

Vardis had been stripped of his command when his liege, Lord Arryn, had been sent north for treason. Now, he had been forced into working for the remaining Lannisters.

He soon arrived at the source of the yelling. The last little bird had been captured, pinned down. Together with the other guards, Vardis escorted Varys' agent away.

A little bird, a.k.a. 13ricity, has been voted off and sent to the Wall.

The night phase begins now, and ends tomorrow, Thursday, February 15, at around 7:00 PM PST.

"I'm having trouble sleeping," Lancel Lannister said to the Grand Maester.

Pycelle thought for a moment, and responded, "Here. Have some dreamwine. It will help."

Lancel murmured his thanks, then departed the room.

After Lancel's footsteps had faded away into the distance, Pycelle stood up and stretched for a bit. He then walked to Varys' chambers, and once more gave him the gift of sweetsleep.

With Varys well asleep, it was not difficult for Ser Jaime Lannister to arrest the eunuch. By daybreak, the Spider was well on his way north on the Kingsroad.

Varys, a.k.a. Hydra, has been arrested by Ser Jaime Lannister (a.k.a. Aragonn) and sent to the Wall.

Furthermore, Grand Maester Pycelle, a.k.a. Mathyland, drugged Hydra (and his fellow teammate Evelynx, a.k.a. Lancel Lannister, at her request).

The game has now ended in a Lannister victory!

@Gattoartico, a.k.a. Vardis Egen, Master-at-Arms of the Arryn guards and a pro-Baratheon courtier, you have the option to swear allegiance to your new Lannister overlords and have the game now end for you, or be exiled to the Wall. You have 48 hours to make your decision.

Additionally, as a recap, here is an archive of all the votes and night actions from this game (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CQg1nCwWiWoQ7uUh74pzNX6Suj-A6XCvyts9KuMRXag/edit), which I hope that you will enjoy.

I was going to try to play both sides, though, since I'd count towards  each faction's total -- couldn't think why someone would expose me unless they were definitely going to lose (which is why I scanned Laurentus but didn't contact him, since he ended up getting lynched next phase, spelling the end for the Baratheons).

The Baratheons could have won right up to the last phase.. it would take squeezing by two 50/50, but it could have been done. That's why it was important to keep the narrative focused on Gatto/13ricity right up until the end.

Yeah, but none of the Baratheons at that point were able to be in contact with each other, so it would've been riskier to expose myself to just one of them since they could expose me and the others wouldn't even know I'm on their side. And I seriously doubted the Baratheons would win since the other two factions had members in contact. Thought it better to hedge my bets with Varys and then the Lannisters -- apparently that wasn't a good bet, though.

Yeah, honestly at that stage in the game I thought that Varys had it in the bag.. I never thought he wouldn't have scanned Aragonn and taken him out at the earliest opportunity. Getting on his team would have been awesome.

I was in contact with the Lannisters because Cersei got lucky on round #1 and scanned me, who just happened to be her most ardent admirer.

Mmm. I suppose you must be right, but that just seems screwy to me.

At any rate, since the match is finally over, Tau, can we know what exactly Varys' win condition was? Unless he really did just count as his own faction, which seems a bit dull.

In my estimation they had a pretty good chance of winning.. more than I thought at first. Having the protective little birds really ups the ante.

While the Lannisters did gain an advantage early on, a lot of that was luck and good communication. I was worried about an unbalanced game, but from what I saw most of it was pretty okay (though being Werewolf, there are still a lot of random elements there).
No, they couldn't.
