Werewolves Revamped - story

Day 0 | The Opening Ceremony As @Currently Diving Water lit the torch in the centre of arena, a chorus of howls rose up from the surrounding stands. It was finally time for the Howlympics, where humans, wolves, and various other denizens compete to see who the superior sportsmen - and saboteurs - are! Good luck, all! May the best wolf win! @Participant

Midday 0 | Oops Unfortunately, due to current events, it has been deemed that the cardboard beds are no longer suitable for use. Instead, in return for being allowed to compete, @Mr. Triathlete has offered to pay for new, comfortable beds that don't have 5G hidden in the mattresses. [@Mr. Triathlete has subbed in for @Cardboard Bed Boy] (edited)

Night 1 | The Last Night The sportsmen settled into their new, soft, comfortable beds. It would be a week of harsh competition, where everyone would do whatever it takes to win... up to and including littering. What would the morning unearth? @Participant NOTE: From this point onwards, phase changes will be at 10:00 UTC (Night -> Day) and 08:00 UTC (Day -> Night), in accordance with standard phase change times.

Day 1 | The First Casualty Everyone arises in the morning, ready for the day of events. At first everything seems to be going smoothly, until the track event call out, "We're missing @Ethletics., has anyone seen him?" The Howlympics officials head to @Ethletics. room, his things are packed and he is gone. What remains in his room however is a very in depth investigation into one of his competitors. His research reveals that @Shoot Eclair, is a Citizen ------------‐-- @Ethletics. is a dead ranger, and has revealed @Shoot Eclair as Citizen (edited)

(I'm sorry for the confusion, this happened during night 1 but only announced now because of a misunderstanding. We discussed if it should've been announced as the role info could be interpreted for both ways.) (edited)

Night 1 | The Competition Starts To Splinter After a hard day of events, it was finally time for the day's highlight - polevaulting! The atmosphere had been tense in anticipation. However, just before it was due to start, @Shoot Eclair ran onto the track, waving their arms madly. "Stop the event! The poles have been sabotaged!" Further investigation revealed that, as he'd said, the poles appeared to have been tampered with. Mutters floated round the group. "It was @Judanna!" someone cried. "I saw her walking towards them earlier!" The organisers gathered in a huddle. After some discussion, they ruled that @Judanna should be disqualified for potential sabotage, and that @Shoot Eclair should be rewarded for his hand by a special @Badge of Responsibility (<= 15). With no polevaulting able to be done, everyone headed to bed, considerably discouraged. @Participant

Shoot Eclair 07-Aug-21 11:15 AM

Hey guys. I'm your new mayor

As you can see from my nickname, I have a way with guns, and shoot down all the wolves here

Day 2 | Missing equipment After waking up, everyone heads to their events ready to compete for the Howlympics gold medals. @Shoot Eclair wanders around for a moment around the shooting range, confused. "Has anyone seen my gun? I can't find it anywhere?..." BANG. @Shoot Eclair falls to the ground, shot by a rifle. By the time officials reach the shooters location, the shooter is gone, but the murder weapon remains. @Shoot Eclair's own gun! Standing next to him, @Heptathlette faints, and when she comes back from unconscious, she makes the decision to bow out of the Howlympics, for good... @Participant

Night 3 | Dreams are Crushed After the... mess at the shooting range is all cleared up, the organisers decide that the modern pentathlon can continue to go ahead. The contestants all greet their horses, getting a feel for them. Everyone hopes that they won't end up in tears when their horse refuses to jump. A worse fate seems to await someone else, though. Nearby, a reporter is furiously scribbling down notes, when the gates behind them swing open, and a group of horses stampede out, trampling them in the process! As EMTs flood the scene, further investigation reveals that the gate's latch had smudged marks around it, as if loosened, and recently... all eyes turn to @Tramprohpline, who was standing the closest. The organisers decide, once again, that this deserves disqualification. @BMrMXing, who called the EMTs, seems like a prime target for @Badge of Responsibility (<= 15) - but at the last moment, organisers decline to award it, citing "what happened last time". Modern Pentathlon delayed til tomorrow! blare the news anchors, but a few contestants wonder if they'll even have the opportunity to take part... ------------‐-- A Corrupt Wolf cancelled the election @Participant (edited)

Day 3 | A change in plans The Howlympics organisers spend all night in discussion about how to proceed with the event. Between people disappearing, getting shot, and equipment tampering its clear that this years events haven't gone to plan. As such, the officials decide to call off the penthalon and instead wish to focus on only the single events. So, with the announcement of single events going ahead, the remaining competitors head to their events hoping for a stress free day. In the Howlympics however, there is no such thing. @Göölf hobbles over to the golf field achey and in pain. Speaking to the officials, she complains of her awful night sleep recently, and how tired she is. Soon after, @Göölf collapses from exhaustion and officials rule that it is best she is removed from the competition. After a short investigation, it is revealed that not all of @Mr. Triathlete's kind donations were entirely kind. He has been involved in some high stakes bets, and hoping to make some easy money, put some nails inside of some of the beds to ruin the sleep of those he was betting against. Naturally, he was kicked out of the arena and no longer recognized as a sponsor for the event

Night 4 | It seems no event is safe from the mysterious saboteurs. Shortly after @Jump_Longaboo dives into the swimming pool for the 400m Freestyle, she cries out, thrashing wildly. @BMrMXing manages to haul her out of the pool, but, traumatised as she is, she decides to bow out of the competition for good. @BMrMXing, meanwhile, is awarded the @Badge of Responsibility (<= 15). As staff take her swimsuit away, they notice how unusually heavy the costume is, and find weights sewn into it. How unfortunate! @Participant

BMrMXing 09-Aug-21 10:39 AM

I feel like I should take the opportunity to post in here at least once! Hopefully Wolves have realised how close Hell might be to winning, but if not and I die shortly, please look to Heron for guidance. Thank you and have fun

Day 5 | More Sabotage! @Skatedørding heads to the skating arena and begins their routine. Everyone is wildly impressed with their performance and are on track to receive top marks from the judges! That is until one of her wheels pops off, she loses control of the board and spins out across the skate arena, incurring some nasty injuries. The Howlympic Paramedics team escort @Skatedørding out off on a stretcher to an ambulance on standby, but just before she gets on she points to an onlooker. "It was him, I saw him messing with my skateboard!" The onlooker is @Canoeptain Slaluffy, and the crowd around him gasp, and take a step away. Appalled at his attempts to so dangerously Sabotage another competitor, he is disqualified from the games. ------------ @Skatedørding was a Fletcher's Customer that targeted @Canoeptain Slaluffy @Participant

Midday 4 | Well Fuck In the midst of the road cycling race, @BMrMXing lost control of his bike and swerved to the side of the road, crashing badly. The road had been coated in oil! Furious, he stomped off. "I'm done with this shit!" @Participant

artisticphiliac 09-Aug-21 09:59 PM

Midday 4b | Well, Fuck! @Orcuestrian and @Modernastery Pentharrython, who were a little further down the road, were talking to each other about all the sabotage going on. They were unaware, however, of the earlier crash, as they didn't have radios. Distracted, they also slipped in the oil, and tumbled over each other comically. @Participant

End Game | The Closing Ceremony The road cycling was finally over - but only four competitors remained! As they slowly pulled over the line, the organisers muttered to each other, before @Currently Diving Water stepped forward. "Considering there are so few of you remaining, it seems remiss to continue the competition. You will, all four, be considered winners - and you will be the only winners. I suppose congratulations are in order!" @Participant @Dead Participant Hell Team tie with Remaining Town!
