Welcome!  There usually is at least one Werewolf game on tap.  Just 
issue the "list werewolf" command and look near the bottom of the list 
for games that are forming.  Most of the time, there is some kind of 
theme, and the person organising the game starts out with an alias that 
names the theme (then resigns that player when the game is actually 
about to start).

Right now, game #280 is forming, but I don't see a theme names the way 
it's typically done.  That could mean that someone other than one of the 
usual people started the game without being aware of how it is usually 
done here, or it could mean that the game's organiser has already 
resigned the fake player with the theme's name, and the game will be 
starting within less than an hour (maybe much less).  The theme of #280 
APPEARS to be "words starting with the letter E," so if you decide to 
try joining that one, be sure to specify an alias that begins with E, 
otherwise, you may get voted for lynching early, since your name 
wouldn't fit the theme, and would appear "suspicious."

We don't usually have more than one game going at a time, but there 
isn't any specific rules against it, so you may start your own 
challenge, if you like.  The thing is: most users who DO participate in 
Werewolf do so VERY regularly, and don't usually want to participate in 
multiple games, so you may not have many people sign up if another game 
is already underway or pending.

Good luck, and enjoy!

P.S.  For quality, my choice would be beta.  Unfortunately, marketing 
won out over quality, so VHS wound up taking over.
