werewolves - interactive people watching
After a week of eXtreme meeting (exact total to be calculated on the flight home)...at the point of exhaustion and stomach cramps from six days of hotel food, I took my game to the next level by playing werewolves until 1 a.m.
I think the game is less about being a good liar and more about being able to sooth anxiety, keep focus on the role you are playing, and being in the moment. When a werewolf, it is not so much that you are hiding that you are a wolf, but trying to sense who is the seer. More than anything, I found the game an excellent way to fine-tune my intuition. I'd love to play the game with other participants in our committee to discover how they disclose (or not) information. Although, now I worry that my co-workers will never believe me again since I did not raise suspicion when I was a werewolf. ;)
p.s. Instead of thinking, "I'm not the werewolf" think "I'm looking for the seer." Focus on what you are doing instead of what or who you are not.

You mean we might notice how super sneaky you are? I reckon you just act pretty trustworthy even if you aren't. :P You are so trustworthy you can't get out of the habit.
