I do use EST. However, if you do have a very different time zone that can cause issues with being here every day and/or just having a problem with the deadline in general then I'll try to compensate.
Notes:
With DreamThorn coming in, the signups are now closed as are the requests for quirks and role changes. The setup and flavoring will be in asap: I'm happy to report that 95% of the work is already done.
Meanwhile, I can leave you with a very nice bit of evil to talk about:
Below are the rules that made it in, along with what they actually DO. As you'll see, you guys have made this into one very ....interesting.. game.
Note that this is NOT a bastard mod. As such I will happily help to make sure everything here is made VERY *VERY* clear.
Sidenote: 'lean' does not mean ALL roles.
Do You See What I See?:
- Roles will lean towards what you see (tracking, watching, 'seeing through other people's eyes, ext.).
IT'S A TRAP!
- Flavor text has players as their opposite gender (compared to the player, not your role)
Leafsnail talks like this, desu
- Roles may lean towards SLIGHT post requirements (nothing like "can only post 10 times a day" or other such mess)
Only the Good Die Young
- Roles will lean towards performing negative but nonlethal things to other players
At least things couldn't get any worse
- Roles are more likely to weaken in some form as time goes on (i.e. won't work as often, or have a set limit of use like how JOATs work)
Complete Bullshit
- Something about your role is not true.
Damn you, logic.
- Host is not required to fit your powers with your role
Dead Man Walking
- When a lynch occurs, the the condemned is not instantly killed. Instead, during the following night, the condemned may PM those that voted for them for a final plea, though the voters may NOT speak back. The voters are then allowed that same night to PM the host if they wish to remove their vote. In the morning, a new vote count is made and, if the condemned no longer has the majority then they are set free (no one is lynched). Note that the roleflip will happen only after the actual lynch occurs AND the condemned cannot perform actions during the night, though they may be targeted.
I'm Feeling Lucky!
- Roles will utilize RTD rules in some aspect of their role (though not the ENTIRE role).
- QUICKY explanation: Roll To Dodge means that the results of the action is determined by a die toss. The nature in how this fits your role will be explained in your role PMs.
It's Super Effective!
- Players will receive double votes from some players, and half a vote from others. Determined by element.
Now you're thinking with Portals
- All players receive an Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device. With this you can create up to two portals to other players: portals can be added and moved at any time and is a free action. Portals remain open until closed, moved, or the target cannot be targetted (i.e. death). You also cannot aim one at someone who's condemned. You cannot open two portals to the same person. Actions are sent through a portal to the other player. An action done against you can be redirected if you aim one portal at the sender and another portal at another player. An action can redirect multiple times if the portals are set up properly. If a 'loop' is created, the action trapped inside will spin at high velocity then jump out suddenly, hitting one of the people in the loop at random (the original person CANNOT be hit this way)
Pen is Mightier than the Sword
- You are not allowed to choose a target naturally. Instead, you are given a set of words. Your available targets for the night will be either:
1. Anyone who has said one of those words, or
2. The person before and after any post you make containing one of those words.
Quotes of the word count. Note that this doesn't determine who you WILL target.. just who you CAN target that night.
Trust Me, I'm a Doctor...
- Doctors are not ordinary doctors. Slightly higher percentage chance of a 'doctor' role.
CAN involve time travel(last part struck out because of another rule that does the same thing)
Holy shit this is insane!
- The need for crazigonutz overwhelms the need for balance. Means that although I have not rigged the game, if it was a difference between perfect balance and something that sounded cool, I went for the Cool. Be warned.
USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST
- One person is the Mod. The mod, each day, decides a posting voliation that must be followed (i.e. No saying the word 'ebonezer'). The violation cannot overly stifle communication (no 'no vowels' roles, for example) and the actual vote process cannot be affected (i.e. if they ban the name "Dakarian" you can still write that name in red for your vote, but ONLY then). Breaking this violation results in a tempban, which means the person cannot perform actions and cannot vote. The mod CAN be banned for his own violation. If the mod dies, the rule ends.
We need a slogan!
- Each day, a slogan must be decided upon by the town along with their lynch. That slogan becomes the rule for the next day. The host determines the interpretation of the slogan.
Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey... Stuff
- Time travel! All roles have time traveling aspects to them.
Xanatos Roulette
- BIG one so listen up!
-- Each person will be given the first of three goals, inspired by a TV Trope they receive. When completing that goal, they receive their second, then third. If someone completes all three of their goals, they have achieved a successful Xanatos Roulette and have won. Yes, only THAT person wins: all else looses.
- Note that the normal win conditions are also in effect (town win, scum win, ext.) and if one of those win conditions occurs then the game ends with that team winning naturally. However, if someone achieves their Xanatos Goals before then they trump all others. If a team win and a Roulette win occur at the same time, the Roulette win will take priority.
- Note that the goals are not the simple "kill Buddy, Kill Buddy 2.." style. Note that it's very easy for a goal to be made impossible (i.e. If you need to give someone a virus and that person died beforehand, you can't really give them anything). Also note that the goal MUST be done in proper sequence (if Goal 2 = Litia dies, but Litia dies while you are still working on Goal 1.. you won't be able to succeed unless you somehow rekill them
). It's also perfectly fine to ignore the Xanatos Goals and just aim for the team goal as you wish.
Welcome to fucking Boatmurdered (Biggest one)
- Along with the regular mafia game, the players must also run a dwarf fort. Details will come in another post (OMG this rule requires it's own post!?) but the KISS of it: The fort has a full set of buildings with magma power (magma forge, kitchen, Depot, ext.). Each player has a beginning profession and can learn others as they practice in it. Each Dwarf Season will be 24 hours, though only 2 seasons can occur in each game day. During each season, you may decide what major action you will do (i.e. Mine, Make a Sword, Farm). Things are made more simple here, but food/drink will still need to be worried about. Also Elephants.. Elephants WILL be an issue. Elephants can kill if you aren't prepared. Your goal is to become prepared.. or at least last long enough to finish the game. Of course, the Elephants can finish it for you, but you may not want to do that, since THIS is the way that Everyone Can Lose.
And that's what you have to 'look forward' to. Questions, discussion, ext, can be offered. Note that no one has their PM yet and the details to Boatmurdered will be coming shortly (note, if you're worried about item quality and what to do about winter, you're thinking too hard
). Otherwise, ask away.
(hides from the freakouts and complaints)
