The Traitors- Boards/FOG Edition

[Dora the Explorer]

Buen día! Good question and very specific. Why ask Boris?

was always asking someone and dont like those opening. hey guys, delighted to be here

Yeah fair enough I get that with the intros too. It just looked like a big leap into game mechanics early on so was wondering why you picked Boris.

[Vincent the Artist]

The voting system will be interesting given there's less opportunity for people to gang up on others, unless the Traitors wait until later in the voting period to see how play is progressing and then jump on top.

[Vincent the Artist]

Also curious if there'll be any "Murder in plain sight" type shenanigans as well.

So the round table discussions start at 6pm and that’s when I can openly say that I’m going to vote for X. Does that mean before 6pm I can’t say I’m voting for X?

My reading of it is I can say I am voting for McDonald at any stage, but once I put Vote McDonald after 6pm, my vote is locked in

I think it means after 6pm we all have to start posting about who we think we are going to vote for, everyone needs to debate it and then later on in evening we actually cast our vote. I think you can still call someone out at anytime though doesn't have to be after 6pm.

[Dora the Explorer]

Yeah I'd imagine it's basically same as the show. When you sit at the round table it's your chance to get answers but you can still query and poke and form opinions and give opinions.

voting only takes place between 8:30 and 9:30,  i guess any mention of declarations before 8:30 will not count.

This is my reading of it also. The discussion starts at 6:30, but you have to make your VOTE XXXX after 8:30, and once posted it is locked in then.


I'm getting a lot of SQL errors on the thread today. A few times now I have tried to catch up but get a MyBB SQL error.

[Prada the Seamstress]

Sorry I didn't realise that was so big and would be embedded in the post!

Off topic but just realised Lilly the millennial is now on the list. 👋 👶 xxx

[Boris the Fool]

would you accept the invite to turn if you're currently faithful?

Buen día! Good question and very specific. Why ask Boris?

Why indeed - probably because of my alleged foolishness. Isn’t the invitation usually more of a threat … as in become a traitor or be murdered next time?

[Amy the Singer]

"9) Daily competitions will run on the first three days minimum beginning with Monday. A prize or prizes will be on offer for the winners. Further information to follow after the morning announcements regarding this. NO CONFERRING ON ANY TASKS BETWEEN ANY PLAYERS, INCLUDING TRAITORS."

How do we play this when someone wins a prize? The traitor can lie about any prize or how they use it, but should the faithful declare?

If we're in teams and one player wins a shield that could in effect protect the whole team of it's not declared until after it's been used. Thoughts?

Are millennials attracted to farmers? You seem very excited to see her name, was it not always on the list?

she’s a “born in 2026” addition. 

Based on the show the prizes could be a shield, a dagger or a seer peek. I don’t know why we’d be split into teams and what we’d have to do if we were but if someone gets a shield they either say nothing or we all do a Spartacus on it. Dilemma for traitors would be the same either way.

I'm referring to the last traitors game here when players were grouped into teams. Player x on team a wins a shield, Clorcandia announces a player on team a won. If player x doesn't declare the traitors will likely kill in team b as they won't want to risk targeting the protected player.

I don't follow your first line, I think Lilly was always a ww account here.

i'm going for a nap so will miss the start of the vote discussions

There isn't a vote tonight, Benny boy, today is a soft launch.

[Laura the Lace Mistress]

Hey everyone, I'm.... Laura the Lace Mistress. Just call me Laura. My mother was the Lace Mistress. I merely inherited the title.

[McDonald the Farmer]

I’ve never played traitors on here before. What happened with the teams? How were they split, what did they have to do?

Are you sure lily the millennial isn’t a new name on the list this year?

Whatever makes life more difficult for the traitors we should go with

The games mod divided us into teams in the last game, the traitors buried some players alive etc. You can see the previous game here, but Clorcandia might have new games up his kilt for this one.

Reminder,  thread closes at 11pm

[Benjamin the Alchemist]

well i suppose we reconvene tomorrow where the real carnage will begin

[Zeena Warrior Princess]

No banishment if you don't post? So people can be silent observers?

[Vincent the Artist]

No minimum posting but everyone needs to vote or 2 misses and out of the game. I'd be keen to see people getting involved and not being sneaky hiding in the shadows. Would have to assume that there'll be some Traitors hoping to keep under the radar and might keep quiet in the beginning.

are you running the opposite tactic for the traitors?

[Vincent the Artist]

And even just posting this has drawn suspicion it seems. Just going to get involved where possible really, but have often seen traitors/wolves play quiet games and get far along before drawing any notice.

[lorcand1990]

The Boards/FOG Bell has chimed, off to bed everyone & no more posting until 8am tomorrow.

Unfortunately we have no car sponsor for this series of The Traitors, so you'll have to hitch a ride to your sleeping chambers.

[Vincent the Artist]

Considering there was no offer of a lift, do we at least get a fancy breakfast?

Cook is on holiday supposedly, but the baker will surely have a few croissants at the ready.

Busy day yesterday, great weather for robbing graves.

Any new players?
Happy to give them a pass for the first round table

[Vincent the Artist]

Good call on the new players, no harm to make yourselves known if any, so ye get a fair shot at the game.

I dont get this, obviously we want to give new payers a chance but everyone has an equal chance of being a traitor. Anyone can say they are new especially a traitor.

FWIW, I'm not new to WW but new to traitors.

We've done this for some recent wolves games to prevent brand new players being yeeted night one but not sure if we have antly actual newbies either way.

Def possible a new player could be a traitor as well.

I'd frown upon a non newbie claiming to be one tbh.
Whether faithful or traitor, gives newbies a chance to get into the game a bit more, ask a few questions and hopefully come back again to play.

You could never rely on that Gordon fella. Busy morning in the bakery today - tuck in.

Like the oth shave said we have an unwritten rule the last few days of a new player amnesty to give them a good go in the game and help grow the number of players that return. It only covers the first vote - after that they are all fair game!

[Donald the Spoofer]

Yea I get the rationale on giving new players a bit of time to get into the game. I guess it's the unwritten rule that we should trust everyone to be honest when claiming to be a newbie.
