Ok, I'll in.

By the way, the OP reminds me of this sketch.

I'll be honest: I read the entire damned thing and didn't notice that anything was wrong.  I only really got it when I went back to look for deadline info, after Apost's post.

My computer has regained stability! Somehow. I think threats with a claymore had something to do with it.

In again. Even if it completely breaks down, I'll be able to post at least once a day until I get a replacement.

Awesome!  We're at 10/13, and if we're lucky we'll be able to get 3 more before game-start~

Welcome to LASD, Leafsnail, and Alsark, and welcome back Nirur Torir, glad you could make it!

You're right, Leafsnail, it is rather like that sketch (though I'd never seen it before). Thanks for the link.

And, thank you to Vector for the recruitment. Only two slots left.

And that brings us to 13. I'll be writing the flavor and distributing roles this weekend, for game start around 10:30 board time on January 11th.

Role PMs sent out, locking the thread in preparation for the beginning of the game. If you have any questions about your role, please don't hesitate to ask (privately)

Well, that was certainly odd.

There each of you were, minding your own business (being dead, in some cases), when suddenly you ended up here.

Nothing but a swirling mass of colors for a sky. Or for the ground, for that matter. There seem to be thirteen houses, though, so each of you might as well take one. They aren't doing anything else.

As you're looking around at the twelve other people, though, the sky resolves itself into letters


Welcome, Welcome! We're glad you've all made the trip!

I'm sure you all know the rules, and (if it it isn't yet obvious) some of you have already formed a plot to take over (my, my, that was quick). Naturally, if the rest of you object to whatever their vision of the future is, you'll need to vote for their elimination.

You probably do.

Don't worry about how all of that will work, we'll take care of all the messy details of what happens to the ones you choose. It'll be fun! In case you don't remember, here are the supplemental rules:

Rule 0: It's a very simple game, with some small additions
Rule 1: The first rule is that I can't tell you any of the other rules
Rule 2:
Rule 3:
Rule 4:
Rule 5: (currently inactive)
Rule 6:

But I'm sure you remember that if you violate the rules, you'll get a warning the first time, and lose your voting privileges for the day the second.

Now, with that preliminary accounting out of the way, let's proceed!


The message hangs in the air for a few more minutes before the swirl retakes it, leaving you alone with a dozen other people in the swirling of colors and houses.

What a very interesting game, Zai.  Tell me, do you think this will play out like a roughly standard mafia game or do you think it'll play out like a bastardised puzzle?

Halmie, what do you think the best way to discover the hidden rules is?
