Well, ScottNak just gave me the word to begin the next game of Werewolf. Soooo.... You're all programs and other related things on a server.
I tried to make this concise. That's my way of saying, "I didn't want to type very much." Ask me questions, though. I'll answer anything.
Some content shamelessly taken from the WereWiki...
When I say "day" or "night" in your role or the rules, I don't really mean anything. If you send a PM with an action in it, it nullifies whatever you sent me since the "day" began. Remember that! I won't be considering actions strictly in the order I get them, either: All actions are presumed to take place at the same time, with some differences based on day or night.
Rules: (If you have any questions, ask them NOW!)
Your objective in Werewolf is to win. (Pretty obvious.) You do that by eliminating the other players. (Alright, slightly less common.) You do that by killing them. (WHAT?!?) Your role (which you will receive before the game begins) will determine how you do that. One person might just vote for people; another person might kill them in broad daylight. Your role explains your powers, but you might have questions. PM those questions to me!
Voting: Every day, you will have the option to vote for somebody. Whoever has the most votes will be executed. Vote like this:
Vote: Person. To unvote someone, write
Unvote: Person. DON'T FORGET TO BOLD IT!!! No action is needed to vote for no execution. You can't vote for two people, either. (Yes, I know, all you veterans hate me now. I don't care.) A 51% majority is required to execute someone. There is no "lock", so even if everyone votes for someone, they are not guaranteed to die. (Now you really hate me. Again, I don't care!)
Roles: Your roles are concise (there's that word again!), but you can ask questions by PM. I will end any confusion. A few notes that concern everyone: 1. If your role doesn't specify how many times you can do something, assume you can do it as often as you like. 2.
You may never target yourself. Evar! 3. If your role states that you're part of a team, you may not, under any circumstances, reveal who your teammates are. You will automatically lose, and at the discretion of future Game Masters, you might not be allowed to play future games. 4. Post an avatar that you want associated with you to sign up, along with the phrase, "Sign me up!" to sign up. The avatar will be used to show your game-status in my signature. 5. If your role requires you to post something in the thread, you MUST PM me. I won't be looking for this, so if I don't catch it, it's not my fault. 6. If your role does not state that you have a shield, don't despair! You can be given one. You will NOT be told about it, though.
Special Powers, aka Secret Powers: You might get a special power; I'll notify you if you do. No, you can't find out what it is in advance.
Shields: A shield protects you from dying. Everyday, the % diminishes 10%. The % is the odds that you will survive an attack. I am armed with a D30, since i don't trust random generators... If someone attacks you, it will go down by an additional 40%.
Death: When you die, you can't post in the game thread anymore, unless someone uses a role power to resurrect you. You CAN post in the Dead Thread, which will be created along with the game thread.
Times to remember:
Approximately 16:00 GMT -6: Day scene posted.
Approximately 16:10 GMT -6: Night scene posted.
The rest of the time: You, voting, sending in lists, etc.
The game will take place on Mondays through Fridays. My weekend is extremely busy, so there would be disaster if I attempted to schedule myself like that.
Inactivity, while not good, isn't going to be punished. If you choose not to send in a list one night, I won't modkill you.
The switchblade. If you're voted for by a majority, expect this to be rammed through your heart.
Signups, questions, random posts to annoy me, go here.
EDIT: There is a cap of thirty players. If you realllllllllly want to paly, I'll try to fit you in, but I can't guarantee it.
EDIT2: Hey, lucky me, my spelling errors are bolded.
EDIT3: Special powers? Of course I remembered to mention those in the rules!
