Roles: (All roles were assigned randomly.)

The Civilians (Pro-Town): – win once they’ve eliminated the anti-town party.
4 Civilians

Aidan McCollin – can resurrect deceased players, but this reveals the identities of himself, Josh, and Sally to the player he resurrects; can trigger Josh's kill ability by use of one of two key words known only by himself, Josh, Sally, and Bishop; goes into the game knowing who Josh and Sally are.

Josh Radcliff – if triggered by use of one of two key words known only by Aidan, himself, Sally, and Bishop, he randomly kills a player in the night phase; goes into the game knowing who Sally and Aidan are.

Sally Malik – protects a player during each night phase but can only protect a player (including herself) once throughout the game (unless there comes a time when every surviving player has been protected at least once); can trigger Josh's kill ability by use of one of two key words known only by Aidan, Josh, herself, and Bishop; goes into the game knowing who Aidan and Josh are.

The Vampires (Anti-Town): – win once the combined number of pro-town and independent players reaches the current number of anti-town players.
2 Vampires

James Bishop – leads the anti-town party and has the opportunity to convert human roles into vampires (i.e. Aidan, Josh, Sally, and Ray are conversion immune but Danny is not, so do not equate human role with non-power role) but gives up the anti-town’s kill in doing so; can trigger Josh's kill ability by use of one of two key words known only by Aidan, Josh, Sally, and himself, though this risks exposure for him to the other three.

Ray (Independent Party 1): – can choose to call on the wolf within him during the night phase in order to kill (unlike with Josh, Ray's kill would not be random due to his control over the wolf) and wins once he has killed Aidan and Bishop; if, at any time, his win condition becomes impossible to complete, he becomes a pro-town power role.

Danny Burge (Independent Party 2): – uses his amateur exorcist abilities during the night phase in attempt(s) to kill Sally and wins once he has successfully done so; his attempt at a kill is only successful if he actually targets Sally; if, at any time, his win condition becomes impossible to complete, he becomes a standard, pro-town player.

***: This is not an RPG. You do not have to sound like any of the characters specified as roles above unless you want to give clues about your role. The roles simply represent what you can do in the game. You play as yourself – not the character.

***: As the game progresses, I will relate what happens in a short narrative at the beginning and end of the day phases.

***: Anti-town players begin the game knowing who each other are. Aidan, Josh, and Sally begin the game knowing who each other are.

***: All players are free to PM me or any other player in the game at any time.

That’s it. Play continues until a side wins.

With Bishop and his two vampires making their intentions known to him, Aidan decided he had to put a stop to his former partner-in-crime. With his new friends, Josh and Sally, at his side, he called Bishop out, ready to wage a war for mankind.

But things were slightly marred by four normal humans getting caught in the crossfire as well as the werewolf that made Josh, Ray, deciding he wanted the two lead vampires' heads on his own silver platter, and Sally's wayward ex, Danny, wanting her eliminated forever to hide his secret murder.

Day Phase 1 Begins

Deadline for Day Phase 1: Monday, July 4, 2011 at 10 PM EST

Day phases also end when a majority vote has been reached and that vote count has been retained for one full, real-time day. In order to reach a majority for Day 1, 7 votes must be cast against a single player. Voting for "No Kill" is an option.

First poster! Woot! :cheer How's everyone doing?

whohoo, second poster.

Small Rule Change: Due to the fact that we have so few players, I am only allowing one kill per night phase (unless the consensus in the day phase is "No Kill," in which case I'll allow two kills in the night phase). Whether this kill goes to the Vampires, Ray, or Josh will be determined on a first-come-first-served basis. Danny has the ability to kill every night phase because his kill only takes if he hits one specific target.

This sounds like a lot of fun. I see Lily only used one Woot...smart girl.

Yay! I'm so excited to play another game!

:P Kinda what I thought. Lol!

Ah, but I love to live dangerously so I'll match Lily's Woot and add another Woot! ;) :lol:

This game sounds like fun.

:)

I'm sure there are times when it's not so fun. Usually at the beginning, when nobody has a clue what's what and trying to figure out everything from nothing. I prefer the end.

Yes, another game underway! Can't wait to see what transpires. :)

Ah but to get to the end, one first has to start at the beginning ;)

But since we only have until Monday and it is a holiday weekend, I'll get us started with the first random vote:

vote=hukie

This is purely random and as always, I can change my vote later on. So Lucky, will you be voting this round? :P

YAY!!!! Ok, I am warmed up and excited to start another game. :D

Weee another game :)

Vote: Angel

Because the voices in my head are telling me to. And because I can.

well the voice is wrong, unless you're an anti. lol

let's see. I'll cast my vote and pick on Raven, least until someone starts acting more suspicious.

Vote: Raven524

Well Raven did do the whole 2 woot thing.

VOTE:LUCKY

Just because. But we do have the option to vote for no kill. Hmmm that's interesting. I'm not sure what I think about that option.

then there could be two kills at night. Would that mean from the anti and Indy or can a pro role kill too because I'm having a hard time understanding the roles. Not sure if I like the fact two pros could die at night, if that's the case, voting no kills during the day might be bad. :unsure:

From what I understand, the pro role would have to be triggered in order to kill at night, but I'm not sure if he kills someone random or gets to choose his kill.

EBWOP

Does Josh get to choose who he kills, or does he randomly kill anyone in the game?

yay another game. I see voting has already started. lol. I think i'll waot until I get home before I vote.

Josh Radcliff – if triggered by use of one of two key words known only by Aidan, himself, Sally, and Bishop, he randomly kills a player in the night phase; goes into the game knowing who Sally and Aidan are.

James Bishop – leads the anti-town party and has the opportunity to convert human roles into vampires (i.e. Aidan, Josh, Sally, and Ray are conversion immune but Danny is not, so do not equate human role with non-power role) but gives up the anti-town’s kill in doing so; can trigger Josh's kill ability by use of one of two key words known only by Aidan, Josh, Sally, and himself, though this risks exposure for him to the other three.

Ray (Independent Party 1): – can choose to call on the wolf within him during the night phase in order to kill (unlike with Josh, Ray's kill would not be random due to his control over the wolf) and wins once he has killed Aidan and Bishop; if, at any time, his win condition becomes impossible to complete, he becomes a pro-town power role.

Danny Burge (Independent Party 2): – uses his amateur exorcist abilities during the night phase in attempt(s) to kill Sally and wins once he has successfully done so; his attempt at a kill is only successful if he actually targets Sally; if, at any time, his win condition becomes impossible to complete, he becomes a standard, pro-town player.

Shannon there is only one anti kill a night, however, he can choose to convert and doing so he can't kill.

The indi Ray can choose to kill or not. So there is the possibilty of 2 kills at night. However Ray wants to be careful as he needs to kill Aiden and Bishop in order to win as an indi.

Danny's kill only counts if he hits Sally.

From the description, SPN, Josh's kill is random, so he has a chance of taking out a pro as well as a anti..that worries me.

Then there's the stipulation Stokes put in about kills which I forgot to paste here and can't remember right now.

Here's the rule change Aislinn. Based on this, if we vote for a no kill, then it is possible to lose two pro's at night.

I actually think the no kill only becomes an advantage later in the game to pro's especially once some of the power roles are gone. The only time it would make sense for us if I understand it correctly is if we aren't sure and the possibility of a double kill at night is reduced.

Besides, one of the ways of telling who is anti is to see how people vote, or don't vote. So I'm not sure that helps the town figure out who the anti's are. :shrug

Don't forget, we could also get a conversion at night, which means we could lose 3 pro's in one night phase. Unless I'm not understanding the conversion role correctly.

so there could be no kills during the night if Bishop fails trying to locate and convert a townie except Ray's kill and if Danny hits Sally, with the added kill from Josh if triggered. I'm guessing he only has one kill throughout the game. I think I'm getting it. lol

There could be a chance of three kills during a night phase? Or is it one now with Stokes rule change only if we don't kill anyone in the day which would be two then.

As I understand he can only convert townies and Danny, but if he fails to hit one of them then he gave up a chance at a kill and a conversion so in that case, Bishop really did nothing throughout the night and the night kill could be from Ray, Danny (only if he kills Sally) and Josh if he's triggered. :shrug

Allow me to explain thoroughly the night-phase kill situation:

One kill per night phase means only one player can die or be converted. Here are the possible scenarios...

*Josh is triggered. This has to happen during the day phase because, to be triggered, Aidan, Josh, Sally, or Bishop must use one of the two trigger words in general conversation in the thread. This means that Josh pretty much has first pick at getting the kill - but he has to be aware because if he's triggered, his kill is random. If Josh is the night-phase killer, the only person who is safe is Josh himself.

*If Josh doesn't kill, then the kill could go to either the Vampires or Ray. If it goes to the Vampires (which means they have to send their kill target in before Ray), then they have the option of killing or converting. If it goes to Ray, then he gets to kill, but the Vampires do not get to convert (Bishop has to give up the anti-town's kill in order to convert, so if they don't have a kill to give up, then they don't have the option to convert).

*Only one person will lose their life (or their alignment) each night phase. The only exception to this is if "No Kill" is the consensus during the day phase. With this in mind, I will allow two kills or one kill and a conversion (whatever's the case).

And also, I saw a question about the limitations to Bishop's conversion:

*If Bishop chooses to try to convert and he targets Aidan, Josh, Sally, or Ray for that conversion, the conversion does not take. He'll then know that the player he targeted is one of the four above. However, he won't know which of the four.

If there are any other questions, please feel free to pose them.

I hate the randomness of the first day phase... any of you vamps want to flash a fang for us?

Do you guys think it's in the town's interest not to use Josh's ability?

Sorry for the double post, but

Do we get to know who killed who during the night phase, or only that someone was killed? Will you tell us if e.g. Josh's ability was used or something like that?

Because there are four killing roles, I'll tell you who it was. If there were only one or two, I probably wouldn't, but for four, I will.

Hey Erebody!,

So…. I have read everything, thanks for clearing up the whole how many kills a night thing because I was wondering the same. :hi5

Anywhoo, I have been working pretty late this week so I will post my vote hopefully Saturday evening. If not a vote than an update. I HATE THE FIRST ROUND!!!! There is nothing to go off of, and no facts or list i can make :cry

WOOT! Another game! *Dances*

Death's Headcount:

1 – Hukie: Raven524
1 – Angel325girl: Hukie
1 – Raven524: Angel325girl

Deadline for Day Phase 1: Monday, July 4, 2011 at 10 PM EST

Day phases also end when a majority vote has been reached and that vote count has been retained for one full, real-time day. In order to reach a majority for Day 1, 7 votes must be cast against a single player. Voting for "No Kill" is an option.

As a matter of randomness, I'll...

Vote: Angel

That's not random if my name is already up on the list. :P

Do seven people need to vote for one person in order for someone to die or would it be like before where the person with the highest votes dies?

Only seven people need to vote in order for a death to occur. Seven people need to vote for ONE person for the day phase to end early.

ah shoot, so I guess one more vote them I'm dead? *shrugs*

Angel:

I make it 2, not 1, as 3 is not a majority of 7 while 4 is. Also, a lot of people haven't voted yet, so it's my opinion you're still nowhere near the chopping block.

I think it is in the pro's best interest not to have Josh's kill triggered. There's a chance that he could take out one of the other power roles or even a townie. But that's just my opinion.

I agree that voting for a no kill this early is dangerous as it opens up a greater opportunity for two to be lost at night.

Hope everyone is enjoying their holiday weekend. (those of you who celebrate the 4th) and those who don't hope you have a good weekend as well.

Hey,

Nothing new has really happened on here and I don't want to post a random vote. Plus we still have 2 more days. I played anemone mine mo and Night came up. Lol, that's just too soon to be voted in a first phase… again.

Also, the whole random kill by Josh terrifies me. Because These games always have more pro's then antis so the chance of killing a pro is greater. So my semi safe security blanket has now turned into a hand towel. :lol:

I agree about the Josh thing. I'd feel safer if he was like a hunter and could choose someone he thinks is a vamp to kill. There's a chance he'd get an anti and it would benefit us, but the risk is too big that we'd lose a power role or a townie.

I hate the first day phase. There's never really anything to go on. My vote will probably be random unless we get any new leads by Monday night.
