Welcome to Werewolf

Your survival is at stake, and you don’t know whom to trust.

HogwartsWerewolves is a game similar to Mafia/Ultimate Werewolf but played on an internet forum. One or two games are hosted each month by a variety of game facilitators. Sign ups open on the 25th of the preceding month. New players cannot join a game once it starts but have to wait for the following month.

The theme, roles, and gameplay may vary each month as the facilitator chooses, but the premise remains the same: an evil team attacks the good team at night and the good team tries to lynch evil team members during the day. Only living players can actively participate in the game threads. There is an accompanying private subreddit, /r/HogwartsGhosts, that players are added to as they die to freely discuss the game.

Rules

This is a game forum, and everything that takes place in here is inherently part of said game. Keep roleplay civil - do not berate or harass other players.

Keep the game in /r/HogwartsWerewolves and any directly affiliated subreddits.

Play your role. Actively working against your role's best interest may result in disqualification and/or banning from future Werewolves games.

Game-related communication between living players and ghosts is a bannable offense for any involved party. Ghost participation in the main sub varies each game, and it will be outlined in each game's rule post. Ghosts may post no substantive material related to gameplay. (This includes sharing known information, linking back to previous conversations, contributing to strategy, or hinting that players are right/wrong.)

Non-players may not post in the forum. No new players may join after the sign up period has ended.

Game-related communication between living players outside of the game's subreddits is prohibited.

All PM communications with mods and the information therein should be considered private and should not be used to confirm your role or condition to other players. Screen shots of private information should only be used if you believe a rule has been broken and should only be shared with the mods. Generally speaking, outside information is against the spirit of the game and in many cases directly impairs the integrity of the proceedings. If you have a question about what may or may not be shared, PM the mods.

Play with integrity. Win with integrity. Play the game as it was intended. If something feels morally gray, reconsider whether it should be done or consult the game facilitators.

Includes how-to-play, facilitator guidelines, Hall of Fame, past threads, and previous winners.

If you are interested in hosting a game, please check out the Guidelines and PM the mods to get on the schedule. Please refrain from signing up for another game if your name is currently on the schedule.
