While you anxiously wait the triple threat chaos of Werewolf XXV, I bring you what is quite possibly the most half-baked, ridiculous idea I've ever had that actually ended up being pretty okay.
For those of you already in the know on Discord, this is...
Botwolf
For those of you just tuning in, Botwolf is werewolf, but written entirely by a mostly functional bot that I wrote a few years back and decided to dust off and polish just for this purpose. It also has a (almost comprehensible) "chatbot" feature, in which it can reply to your questions should it be needed.
So, what makes this the stupidest game of werewolf you'll ever play? Well, just how stupid it is is up to you. So when you decide to play this coming monstrosity, I need a few things to tell the bot what exactly it is generating to set some groundwork. Also, let's not argue with each other in this thread, the bot will ultimately make all decisions based on the frequency of an item cropping up, so there's really no point.
To register you must:
State a number less than or equal to five
State a number greater than or equal to ten
State the name of a team/faction
Write one sentence
Indicate which of the following options you prefer in terms of bot dictatorship:
1. The bot writes all roles and flavour, but not the rules. The bot has no say in moderation calls.
2. The bot writes all roles and flavour, and writes some rules. Standard other rules will apply. Bot is given limited moderation powers and can be asked questions in game. A real live person will be able to override the bot at any time.
3. The bot has total reign over the game. No human may question it's authority. All questions must be answered by the bot. All hail the bot.
Signups will run until Sunday the 2nd.
Those signed up
- Vroendal
- Cozmikrae
- Anubhav Ghosh
- Wischland
- Minish
- Doc
- KoD
- Exlight
- Gerrick

Pregame questions for the bot and answers
Why should we play?
Because you are the sole key to either saving your friends in some way or at least insuring that they had been killed
From KoD: I am not going to throw away my shot, but will you throw away yours?
I may not talk to you please.

Archibald Anderson, an able artist, and an acknowledged authority at all artistic assemblies after adventuring abroad all about Australia and America, and acquiring an admirable album artistically arranged, according as an accomplished artist accounted apt and appropriate, and admired amazingly among all artists as artistic and amusing, again, alleging as actuation an assiduous and absorbing activity, and an ambition all athirst after artistic accomplishments, and aiming at advantageous achievements, arranged another adventure across Asia, and accordingly appointing an accommodating and agreeable acquaintance, an affable Anglo-American, as agent (active agents accurately advised and amptly authorised always affording advantageous assistance, arranging affairs and adjusting articles, and anticipating and arresting awkward and adverse annoyances, and almost always alleviating anxiety and allaying anger and aggravation), after absent-mindedly and abstractedly, although apparently attentively, approving and adopting all arrangements as appropriate, and as auguring an agreeable adventure abroad, and after amiably answering all admiring acquaintances' affectionate adieus, abandoned an attractive abode, and attired as adventurers abroad always are (an attire apparently about as antiquated as any ancient and antediluvian age anytime adopted, and as affrighting and absurd as any art anytime achieved), and armed abundantly—apprehending attacks abroad—against any audacious assailants and aggressive assassins, Archibald advanced along, astonishingly active and agile, and approached an ancient alehouse, an appledealer's abode, an appledealer advertising as an amateur and aspiring artist, anxiously awaiting (as advertisements announced) all artist's and artist's agents arrangements anent adventuring abroad, and affording all advantageous assistance and appropriate aid; and again, advertisements also announced as an available acquisition, "an article aptly accommodating adventuring artists' apparatus and appliances, and all accustomed accessories;" and as Archibald arrived and asked about advantageous assistance and an article aptly-accommodating (as advertised) "adventuring artists' apparatus and appliances, and accustomed accessories," an applecart appeared approaching, and "an amateur and aspiring artist" alias an accommodating appledealer, actually affirmed and avowed (and an Anglo-American agent agreed and approved also), an applecart appropriately accounted and advertised as "an article aptly accommodating adventuring artists' apparatus and appliances, and accustomed accessories," and Archibald, astonished and angry, agitated and aggravated also at an appledealer's atrocious audacity, accounting an applecart an appropriate accommodation, assuming an awful aspect, acrimoniously abused all appledealers, and agents also, as absurd asses, and addledheaded apes, and accumulating annoying and abusive, affronting and arrogant accusations—aye and alas! and alackaday! abominable and appalling anathemas also—absolutely annulled all arrangements, and abruptly abandoned all artistic adventure across Asia; and as abandoning adventure amazed all artists, Archibald alleged as affording all admirers and acquaintances adequate answer, "An awkward accident."*

...I have a feeling some of you will regret your choices of numbers once it is revealed what they were for....
Current selections are such:
Number less than or equal to five: 3
Number greater than or equal to ten: 20
Factions: I can't tell you exactly how many there are going to be or if any names will stay the same in the end, but here are the potential options so far:
- Space tunnel snakes
- wolf wolf thunderclan
- burning cult of third party villager
- unfathomable town
- unaffiliated horrors together
(It REALLY likes space tunnel snakes. It's like its favourite thing to generate. I'm not saying that can't change, but you might want to expect some space tunnel snakes in the game. It's unclear at this time what alignment it will assign said names as I haven't made it do the big generation yet.)
Sentence: After amiably answering all buffalo, I see this is not a fully armed battalion.
Bot dictatorship level: 3
Expect this to all change by gametime, just thought I'd share the current generation

Final generation is in! At this time, no new data will be collected. Players may continue signing up until Tomorrow at 5pm central. Roles will be distributed at some point between Sunday night and Monday morning.
There will be 3.5 factions in this game. (There were almost five. You monsters)
There will be 20 bot generated rules to follow
The teams followed by this game will be The cult of Burning Town (That's not going to confuse the role writing portion of this at all, nope), Unaffiliated horrors from space, Party wolf villagers (Again with the confusing names), and apparently there needs to be half a team, so... Time. Yes. That's it. You're all playing against some actually half baked faction called Time.
The sentence that will be used to kickstart the flavour writing capacity of the bot is as follows: "This is not an applecart. This is a buffalo. " Observed an agreeable assailant after almost annoying an armed person, nearly causing a coconut accident.
The bot, by popular vote, has been given total, unquestionable authority over the game. Best of luck with that.
