Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Comprehensive Werewolf Compendium

I'm currently modding my first game offsite (not using my own setup, borrowing someone else's)

It's actually a bit of fun to see how everyone plays each alignment, but knowing those alignments going in

Only 2 more days before I can mod on mafiascum though, so that's cool I guess.
 
I'm also modding my 2nd game on HT. We've got 30 players in the current DC-based one, with the first having 38.
 
I am currently modding on the Pokegym, and I do not mind having some sort of helping hand in keeping this around. I know things can get a bit tough with situations and all, but as a site mod I would not mind assisting the game mods for keeping the game fun.
 
I would also be interested in modding/co-modding if there is some sort of list forming. I have never modded before, but it sounds like a fun experience :thumb:
 
Normal Guy ~ The page numbers are correct. You have your "posts per page" set at the forum default, which is 25 posts/page.

I have mine set at 40 posts/page, which is the maximum allowed. At 40/page, the numbers are correct.

thank you for clarifying
 
If someone could please inform the WW people that I may be with out internet until Monday, it would be greatly appreciated.
 
Just letting you know im ready to mod a game got all the roles in my PM folder
but co modding is fun too plus I should play the game first before modding but to be fair I have read some werewolf games.
 
DP ~ This is not the place for that post. Please PM your game moderator for those notices or post in the game thread.



Normal Guy ~ Thanks for your enthusiasm. At a minimum, we ask that before you start the moderation process you play at least two games here on the Gym, and have some other experience playing Werewolf. Additionally, it is asked that you go back and read some if not all of the previous games to get a handle on how the metagame has changed over time, as well as look at roles and mechanics that have previously been used. This will allow for a more unbiased approach to setting out the game design.

Of deep note is the game balance, something that can be very easy to mess up. It is always exciting to throw in cool roles that do really cool things. The problem with that is the ease at which they can completely overbalance one faction versus another.

As such, reading through the previous WW games, (as well as the Pre-XVII Metagame Analysis Thread/WMAT, which is linked in my signature and in the Original Post [OP]), is a necessity.

There will be other criteria before becoming a moderator/narrator, which will be elaborated upon once they are solidified.


For both you and Vablakes, you will be given a shot at becoming a moderator, it will just take some time.


At this point, there are still three games that are planned before you guys would get a chance, and there are two other members who have requested to be considered before you two have.

Thus, deference will be given to those members ahead of you two in line. It may take a couple years, based on the length of time common to Gym games, to have some resolution to your questions, but I feel that this will be a great way to keep the ideas you have balanced, fair, and fun for everyone. If you've got that much time to work on your game, I have no doubts that you will come into your own and create a great experience for everyone.



If you want a preliminary perusal of your game idea, feel free to PM me and I'll look at your game. I can help give you some guidance as to balance and give you a head-start in the restructuring of your games. This is no way jumps you ahead of other members, but is just a small taste of what moderation can entail, which you may experience a while down the road.

No. That'll be something that you should mention once you enter the application process. As I stated before, I don't know what that will look like, or what kind of other prerequisites will be required of new mods.
 
I updated the OP to more adequately represent the list of interested parties.


Again, I do not know all that will be required for those desiring to mod a game. I hope to elucidate the process Soon (TM). Stay tuned.
 
Normal Guy ~ Nice.

Also, if you've ever seen it, the anime Death Note is also a great analogy for Werewolf as well.
