The Werewolf Game
Game #2867: The THING
This private game is moderated by The_Spider. Please read the rules and contact the moderator with any questions or concerns about this game.
This game finished in 5 rounds.
Welcome to Research Station 31, Antartica. A nearby base of Norwegiens has unearthed an ancient horror from deep within the Antarcitc ice shelf. This horror, this monstrosity, this Thing does what all things do in the prescence of Norwegiens, it absolutely flipped out, killing and maiming at the ratio of its choosing (but mainly killing).
Out in the open, a lone husky races across the landscape, away from a helicopter in pursuit. As it nears Research Station 31, the Norwegiens try to shoot it down, wounding one of the American research team. In a bid to cease the danger, the American Commander Garrey kills the Norwegien just before he can kill the fleeing husky.
What in the earth was he doing, maniacally trying to kill a dog? Cabin fever? The whole Norwegien thing again? Or perhaps the reality is far more sinister. That husky was a shapeshifting Thing, capable of imitating perfectly any life form....and now the unsuspecting residents of Research Station 31 are in jeaopardy....and only you, or perhaps Kurt Russel can do anything to stop it.
"
"I know I'm human. And if you were all these things, then you'd just attack me right now, so some of you are still human. This thing doesn't want to show itself, it wants to hide inside an imitation. It'll fight if it has to, but it's vulnerable out in the open. If it takes us over, then it has no more enemies, nobody left to kill it. And then it's won.
There will be no theme to this game, but I will be giving out Kurt Russel points based on the overall level of each post. At the end I will rank the members of the game to their equivalent The Thing character. From 1st and the prior named hero, to last and....this guy.....

If we're going for movie quotes that are (almost) relevant:
They're eating her...
And then they're going to eat me...
Oh my Gooooooooooooooooood.
Sends a shiver through my very being every time.

Koin, I'm not a wolf, get over it! lol
Maybe the dog only brings the ball back because he thinks you like throwing it.

Rule #1
1) The phrase "too defensive" cannot be used in this game
2) No carrying over of petty feuds from last game(s)..except I am allowed to continually point out how much better a mod I am then Har

1) Can I claim that someone is being "overly combative" regarding their perceived role in the game?
2) That's a given (the mod claim)

Hi. I'm planning to be more active in this one earlier on. So, what exactly is the theme of this game?
1) What about "strange defense"?
2) Sensing a double standard here But okay.
A little tired of a special role, human would suit me just fine this game.

Happy ever after in the marketplace, Desmond lets the children lend a hand. Molly stays at home and does her pretty face, and in the evening she's the singer with the band!

Hey spid, you should do last words with this game. Dead players can send one final message to the remaining players via PM with the mod. It was a theme back in the day, it should make a come back.

double post
i just noticed the negative's at the top part
Not Logging In and Forcing a TimeOut: -35 MegaKurts (Can be waived if you are Deb, and were busy at the Water Park and have photographic proof)
ewww i am afraid it would cause mass hysteria, self inflicted eye gouging and/or coma inducing drugs to forget the image that a glimpse of photographic proof could provide....maybe that should be a - 100 megakurts

I always hate the "too defensive" reasoning to shoot someone. If you're not being defensive then you're not doing your job as a human or a wolf.
Hopefully this game will be more enjoyable than last game...

Probably the 1982 one no one prefers the remake to anything.
It actually looks like a pretty cool movie.

I sort of figured that, but wanted to be sure. Koin, you're right about remakes not being as good as the originals, but 2011 was not a remake, it was a prequel. But prequels usually suck (in comparison) too. The Original Star Wars movies, I liked, the 3 newer ones not so much..
Most of my favorite movies are OLD (as in 90% of the actors in the movie are dea old)" But gotta love the movies of the 80s too.

Is this only if the wolf is shot that round, or it doesn't matter?
