It's getting late here so I probably won't start this tonight, it'll have to wait until tomorrow.
If people wanna discuss the last game or discuss the game in general, please use the old thread.

Changes of note:
* There will be three werewolves. Still one Seer only.
* The Seer's death, should it occur, will not be announced - his death will be announced as a villager's is. A werewolf's death will be announced as before.
* Night-time communication is now ok, as I noticed that there was no reason to ban it provided I'm careful about handling the seer.
Full rules listing:
All the players together constitute the Village.
Most of you are innocent "Villagers", but THREE of you are secretly "Werewolves". In addition, ONE of you is a "Seer", and while you don't have to keep this a secret, you have no means of proving you are the true Seer.
I will choose, at random, which of you gets each role.
At Night, the Werewolves choose a villager to murder. The werewolves are aware of each other and allied. They conspire in secret between them to choose - so they may choose the Seer (except that they don't know which one of you he is), but they won't choose themselves.
Also at Night, the Seer receives a Vision. He may ask about one player "Is X a werewolf?”, and I will give him a True answer to his question.
At Dawn, the Village will awake to find that one Villager has been murdered by the Werewolves. You are all told who this is. Dead players are out of the game and should no longer communicate with live players.
The Village then votes on a player to Lynch. This may be anyone - Seer, Werewolf, innocent Villager - indeed, the game hinges on the players not being certain who is who.
Voting works via absolute majority. The village must lynch one player each day. If voting is deadlocked in some way, players are encouraged to break the deadlock somehow. In extreme circumstances where deadlocks are slowing down the game interminably, the moderator reserves the right to accept a plurality of votes. In the unlikely event this still does not resolve the matter, the moderator will be very unhappy. Be decisive, you wimps! He may flip a coin or do something equally arbitrary if pushed.
The player with the most votes is killed, and is out of the game. You are all told, after the player has been killed, whether he was a Villager or a Werewolf. The Seer's death is announced as a Villager death.
The Villagers and Seer win if they kill the Werewolves.
The Werewolves win if they kill enough Villagers (through direct murder and misdirecting the lynch mob) to reduce their numbers to equal with the Werewolves (i.e. three villagers left, or two if one of the werewolves is dead, or only one if two of the werewolves are dead).
--------------------------
You may post any discussion in this thread. There are no restrictions on speech for the living - anyone and everyone may freely claim to be the Seer, a Villager, or even a Werewolf (if you want), make predictions, threats, accusations, tell blatant lies, subtle lies, half-truths, misleading truths and even unvarnished honest truths.
You may also communicate via PM, to anyone you choose, saying anything you choose.
On restriction exists: The dead should not speak to anyone. As soon as a definite decision has been made on who to Lynch, that person is dead and should speak no more. Obviously I can't (and won't) enforce this, but keep it in mind as being not in the spirit of the game. Dead men tell no tales.
I will personally declare the changes between Night and Day, who has been murdered by the Werewolves at Night, and the results of all votes for Lynching.

. Maybe I'll just play a game all by myself. It will involve a nightly self-lynching and self-gutting followed by daytime paranoia. Man, I don't think I have legal access to the kind of drugs that would make that fun.
