	**A: It is refering to ''at any time''. The exact text on the card is "If you have this at the ''start'' of your turn, discard something else you have in play (a Keeper or a Creeper). You may discard this anytime it stands alone." So if you have only '''Death''' feel free to discard at any time.		**A: It is refering to ''at any time''.

This would be true, except the Indianapolis Convention Center (ICC) has massive ventilators and air conditioners that work to regulate the internal climate of the building. These systems are capable of compensating for the heat and moisture generated by GenCon's estimated fourteen thousand attendees in addition to the heat absorbed by thousands of square feet of roof. This would work great if the systems could be turned on and shut down with lightning precision, unfortunately they cannot be.

	The 500 Hall and other areas of the ICC can be quite warm while the system is off. Typically, the cooling cycle is not fully switched on while the exhibit hall is closed. Wednesday is warm and stuffy, and this continues until 10am Thursday. The cooling cycle works well, as noted above, and the temperature is comfortable for most of the day until dinner time. At dinner time, thousands of people leave the ICC for hotel rooms and restaurants. However, the cooling cycle is still going full blast! The temperature drops quickly into refrigerator territory, and if you're still inside you may become very uncomfortable. Complicating the matter is that regardless of the indoor temperature, the outdoor temperature may be sweaty hot, wet and chilly, or whatever.

	If you're the kind person who gets warm easily, keep in mind that a lab coat adds another (thin, but noticeable) layer. Prepare for the warm times by wearing thin or short clothing.

		+	== 2010 Email from Shane ==
		+	Hello all,
		+
		+	The reason that you are receiving this email is because you expressed some interest in helping with GenCon. That's awesome. The purpose of sending this email is fiverfold. First, I can delete all of the emails because I responding back to you. So, check...
		+
		+	Second, we can start planning the events. A review of last year's events can be found here (http://rabbits.continuation.org/wiki/GenCon_2009_Final_Report) and here (http://rabbits.continuation.org/wiki/GenCon_%2709_Event_List). I've set up a page on the wiki for this year's events (http://rabbits.continuation.org/wiki/GenCon_%2710_Event_List). If you can work any of those spots, let me know. I have to send it a list of events we're going to run and a list of personal that will be coming by March 10th. Therefore if you want a free badge, you MUST let me know which 12 hours of events you will be willing to run. Also, it give me a good idea on what resources I might need to request. If we run the events listed with the same amount of attendance, we will have 10 badges.
		+
		+	Third of all, I think it would be REALLY COOL if we could complete in some team events at GenCon. For example, NASCRAG I hear is awesome. If there are any events that we can rock the Lab Coat pride, let me know.
		+
		+	Fourth, I would like work on getting a suite or something like that that could act as our housing/base of operations. If there is interest, I could find out the cost.
		+
		+	Five, after GenCon I'm going to off the radar for a while. I'll be unable to come to GenCon or Origins in 2011. More likely I won't be on Facebook, Twitter or email for a while. Hopefully, I'll be able to explain later. With this in mind, somebody will need to be event coordinator for GenCon 2011. If there isn't and the Looney aren't coming to GenCon, well that's that I guess. So, I'll be sending out these shout outs every once and awhile from now until GC. So, catch ya later.

Martian Coasters

2010-02-02T12:47:49Z

room for more, but this is alright

←Older revision		Revision as of 12:47, 2 February 2010
Line 1:		Line 1:
-	{{stub}}	+	Martian coasters are, by themselves, considered a gaming accessory. A pack of Martian Coasters consists of 4 fairly cheap cardboard squares with game boards printed on them. The Coasters are intended to be used as a small, 3x3 game board, for a single Treehouse set. But of course, as with the entire Icehouse system, they are quite useful in a wide variety of other games.
		+
		+	==Background==
		+	In 2006, after seeing some success of the repackaging and rebranding of the Icehouse system as Treehouse, there was some interest in seeing more games available for just one Treehouse set. Martian coasters fit that need perfectly. A question Lab Rabbits will sometimes get is "Yeah, but what else can I play?" Martian Coasters are quite cheap, and open up a bunch of news games you can demo. (See also, [[World War 5]])
		+
		+	==Comments==
		+	Gameplay is fairly straightforward. You are trying to get your nest onto your home coaster, by shifting the coasters around and generally hampering your opponents. This is a truly stupendous game to whip out at bars, coffee shops, and wedding receptions.
		+
		+	There are three known variants:
		+	* The 5th coaster, [http://www.looneylabs.com/OurStores/product.html?ProductID=299 available directly from looney labs]
		+	* The 3D Coasters Cube [http://www.krisjohn.net/6-playerMartianCoasters.pdf available as a print-and-play PDF download].
		+	* 5-coaster Billiards, [http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/155251/martian-8-ball as posted on BGG].
		+
		+	Martian coasters is a pretty good game for younger players, but here's a nice primer on [[When_Kids_Show_Up_at_Your_Demo#Pyramids\|what to do when kids show up at your demo]].

-	* [[How to use the G8 Game Timer for running an Advanced Are You A Werewolf tournament]] - by Jim Dunaway	+	# If you have a large group, more than 15 people, consider breaking up into more than one village. Some of the bigger conventions may have more than a dozen villages going at once! If you have more than 30 players, consider cycling players into forming new villages as old villages start to empty out.
		+	# At it's heart, werewolf is a game of lying and mistrust -- things our society does not encourage. Sometimes, people can get upset at what happens in a game.

		+
		+
		+	== Moderator's Script ==
		+	The game has a certain patter to it that must take place, and it is the moderator's job, first and foremost, to see to it that villagers get the information they need, no more and no less. [[Media:alternate_moderator.pdf\|Jim Dunaway formalized a script (PDF)]] which some players might find useful.
		+
		+	'''First round only:'''
		+	It is night. The moon is full.
		+	Everyone, close your eyes.
		+	Werewolves, open your eyes, and find each other
		+
		+	The werewolves open their eyes,
		+	find each other, then close them again.
		+
		+	Werewolves, close your eyes.
		+	The sun is rising. The night is over.
		+	Everyone, open your eyes.
		+	A new day has begun.
		+
		+	'''All other rounds:'''
		+	It is night. The moon is full.
		+	Everyone, close your eyes.
		+	Werewolves, open your eyes.
		+	Werewolves, choose a victim.
		+
		+	The werewolves silently agree on and gesture
		+	towards the player they wish to kill.
		+	The moderator silently confirms them.
		+
		+	Werewolves, close your eyes.
		+	Seer, open your eyes.
		+	Seer, point at someone.
		+
		+	The moderator gives the seer a thumbs up
		+	if the indicated player is a werewolf, and
		+	a thumbs down if he or she is just a villager.
		+
		+	Seer, close your eyes.
		+	The sun is rising. The night is over.
		+	Everyone, open your eyes and see that this person has been torn apart by werewolves.
		+
		+	The moderator points at the victim,
		+	who reveals his or her card and says
		+	nothing for the rest of the game.''
		+
		+	== Variants ==
		+
		+	As mentioned above, there are many, MANY variants of werewolf. Some of them have been published by other game publishers. As a Looney Lab Rabbit, you should not be surprised if one of these non-looney decks shows up at an event. Official Looney-sanctioned events will always prefer the Looney decks, of course.
		+
		+	This is not the place to list every variant known, and many players agree that additional villager roles only serve to dilute the game. Nonetheless, a few common alternate villager roles are presented:
		+	* '''The Hunter''' - When the hunter dies, by werewolf or by angry mob, they immediately choose to kill someone else.
		+	* '''The Masons''' - Typically two villagers secretly identify each other on the first night, so they know who each other are, but have no other actions to be taken at any point in the game.
		+	* '''The Bodyguard''' - The bodyguard chooses, every night, who they are going to protect. Werewolves cannot kill the protected person.
		+	* '''The Cultist''' - The cultist works for the forces of the werewolves, but does not wake in the night to kill, and does not appear to the seer as a werewolf. In short, the cultist is a villager who wins when the wolves win, and so should try to swing the vote against the innocents.
		+	* '''The Lunatic''' - The lunatic wins if he is lynched by the angry mob. While this sounds silly, it discourages whimsical lynchings.
		+
		+	Sometimes, villages might want to try some other flavorful alterations to standard game-play. Examples of variation in rules and game play are:

		+	* '''The Silent Village''' - No-one in the village (except the moderator) may speak at any time. Anyone who speaks during the day is considered instantly lynched, and the day ends immediately.
		+	* '''Timed Game''' - Each day is limited to a set amount of time. 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 2 hours .... Time limits should be clearly established at the start of the game, and the moderator should warn the village when their day time is nearly up.
		+	* '''Reveal / No Reveal''' - When all villagers are killed (whether by being eaten or lynched), they should or should not reveal their character card. This must be decided at the beginning of the game. Most commonly, people do reveal their card, but perhaps it makes for a more interesting game if roles are not revealed until the game's end.
		+	* '''No Werewolves''' - Unbeknownst to the village, the moderator has not included any werewolves in the village. Instead, the moderator chooses people to kill in the night. ''WARNING! this has been known to greatly anger some villages, and is widely regarded as a bad idea!!''
