<div class="IPBDescription">on TWG VI</div> I read through the FAQs and I hope I'm not breaking any rules here, I'm not going to comment on any player's actions or try to influence the game.
All I wanted to say is that this looks like a really cool game, and if I have the time I'll almost definitely apply for the next one.
I do have a few questions, though:
Am I right in assuming the human 'team' don't know who the seer/psychic are from the start, and must determine this by PMs and the like? If the latter was true, then it sounds quite fun not knowing wether you're PMing a wolf or human with what could be crucial information <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
How many hours are in a 'day-night' cycle?
---
I'm gonna be speccing this one and I might share my thoughts in the aftergame thread. I already have my suspicions <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Comments
The humans don't know who any of the people are with special roles to begin with. That's a huge part of the game.
A night is generally 24 hours, while a day is typically 48 or 72 hours, give or take a few hours depending on special curcumstances.
If you want to spectate, join #ns-twg on gamesurge.net. You won't be able to talk in the channel, but you can watch what the rest of us say.

Enough stuff is said in IRC that it's a pain when players don't use it.
Just download it from <a href='http://www.mirc.com/' target='_blank'>here.</a>

I really must emphasise something here, but I'm not going to be so brash as to use big red lettering (this would be particularly true if I were jumping to conclusions without having enough information on which to base them).
"I don't have access to IRC". Perhaps I should have specified another element in that sentence, say: 'at the moment'. Also I think your statement is emphasised enough in the FAQ, which if you check two posts back you'll find I said that I had read. Postcount +1, I guess <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Secondly I said I wanted to apply for the next TWG. Now, up until now I didn't know how often these come around, but I can see that one is started roughly once every month, so I'll change my statement to: <u>when</u> I am back in the UK (and, naturally have access to IRC) I will probably be applying to a TWG (this is subject to the scenario for that game).

FYI I'm using a public computer atm because I'm out of the country, and just to make things clearer: <b>IRC is not an option.</b> (almost used the big, red letters there). :roll:
I'm not going to comment on Legionnaired until the postgame thread. Or until he's dead, whichever comes first.
Crispy - I would advise that you read back through the last 2 TWG's as well as spec'ing this one because there is a lot you can learn <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
It's cool that TWG continues to get people's interest. Hope to see you in the next sign up thread, Crispy. (:
