Rules/Info (MUST READ!):

Quote:Werewolf is a classic RPG, role playing game, in which each player has a specific role and is responsible for cooperating with his/her teammates in order to help his/her section win. The game is generally pitted with baddies versus innocents, or good versus evil, where there may be multiple teams. The last player standing's team is declared the winner, while all other teams recieve placement ranking relative to when their last player was eliminated.

The game is split into two parts: A night, and a day. During day, the majority of events occur. Discussions, votings, and day-poweres are executed. At the end of the day, the innocents vote to execute one member in a Survivor-esque process. Voting will be discussed later. After day, night ensues, where a variety of events occur.

Roles:

Roles are given out when the game begins, and are in effect immediately. You will recieve a role relating to your team, and often this role is paired with a specific description--often which enables that individual certain privaledges that helps his/her respective side end as victorious.

Roles are maleable. They may change, and often do. The conditions under which they change are not discussed here, but may be visible during game play. Roles of an individual are allowed by discussed, but there is a very fine line between the role and a secret power (to be discussed later).

Roles group individuals into teams, and it is forbidden to explicitly state any of your team members unless written approval is recieved from from that team member first. Failure to abide by this rule will result in immediate expulsion from the game.

How to play:

The game itself is rather straightforward. As I alluded to earlier, there will be a day and a night. Day will begin at 9 P.M. NST and end at 7 P.M. NST. At that point, the innocents will execute their choice, and night will begin--which will ensue between 7 and 9 P.M. NST.

During both day and night, discussions are allowed in the game topic. Voting for innocent executions may only happen during the day. Any votes placed at night will be discounted, and you'll need to revote during the day.

Voting ensues as follows: There is a maximum of two innocent-elected executions per day (as long as more than 10 people remain). In order to execute, you must vote in the following fashion:

Vote: (Insert player's name)
OR
Vote: Nobody
in case you would like to vote for nobody. The former of these options can be done twice--but unless special circumstances are in effect, they must be done for different people (one for each potential execution).

To unvote:

Unvote: (Insert player's name).

In order to execute one individual, a simply majority (50% + 1) must be in effect. For the second execution, a 75% majority must be established. Once voting reaches a simple majority on that individual, unvoting my not occur until another individual enters the simple majority range. By that same token, a 75% vote will result in a vote lock on that person, which, for all intends and purposes, guarentees their execution. If one person is in the simple majority range and the other is in the 75% range, both of them will face an execution, guarenteed.

In other words if Nobody recieves a simple majority and the public changes their minds and want to execute somebody rather than Nobody, they must elevate another individual to the 50% + 1 level before they can unvote Nobody. If Nobody has already entered the 75% realm, then it's too much, too late.

A number of events will happen during both day and night, none of which will I delineate here. I will say this much: If you have a role which requires you to submit a list, that list must be submitted by 7:00 P.M. NST. Any lists sent after that time will be discredited, and action will be determined based upon my discretion. Most of the time, I will deliniate what happens if you don't submit in your PM (if this applies to you). If you cannot cooperate with the schedule, feel free to send in lists ahead of time.

If you die at any point in the game, you will move down to the groupies thread. You may no longer post in the game thread unless you are reserected, and you may not post in the groupies thread unless you are dead.

The Dead: The dead have the groupies thread as their own, but they are also allowed special rights.

Once in the duration of the game, the dead may claim a living player as part of the groupies. To take a living player down to the groupies, 10 people or more must be dead, and the command for lynching is as follows:

Claim: (Player's name).

You may not "Un-Claim" so be sure your decision is desirable before continuing to vote. A 66% majority here is necessary, and if this is not reached, then all votes are discredited and you may re-attempt this the next day. The ability to claim a living player disolves when there are 10 or less players in the game.

Once in the duration of the game, the dead may resurrect a dead player back into the game. To resurrect a dead player, 10 people or more must be dead, and the command for doing so is as follows:

Resurrect: (Player's name).

You may not "Un-Resurrect" so be sure your decision is desirable before continuing to vote. A 66% majority here is necessary, and if this is not reached, then all votes are discredited and you may re-attempt this the next day. The ability to resurrect a living player disolves when there are 10 or less players in the game.

When you die, you are not allowed to divulge anything that was not divulged during the game. You may however be ressurected, and so may persuade people to ressurect you so that you may divulge what you know when you are alive.

Finally, after death you MUST NOT PM people alive in the game about the game. This is an honor code, but out of respect of your peers and the work they/I have put into it, I expect you all to abide by this.

Inactivity: This is the game that will root out good players from bad. Not due to inexperience, but rather to inactivity. If you are inactive for more than two days in a row (which means not PMing me, not posting, not voting, and not using role abilities), then you will be mod killed / replaced.

Rules:

1. You may lie about everything in this game. If you don't understand the rules regarding them (see above), you'd be better off not posting about them at all.

2. You may not quote from independent threads (i.e. from PM to main, from groupies to main, from PM to groupies, etc.). You may not quote any PM's, instant message convos, etc. recieved from the MC or other players.

3. Exposing a team mate is not allowed unless written permission is given to the MC beforehand.

4. Live players may not communicate with the dead independent of the main thread. The same applies to the dead--they cannot communicate with the living except through their groupies thread. In other words, a dead may not post in the living thread, and NO PMing at all. Again, honor system here so please respect the game, the gamers, and myself.

5. Upon death, you may not reveal anything not exposed during your time alive.

All other rules are deliniated in the above prose description. I behoove you all to read it, since those rules apply whether you've read this or not. Please abide by them, and if you become a witness when they are not being followed, please let me know ASAP by PM.

Copied from previous WW games and slightly edited by Yoshi. I assume all of you already know how to play, so just a few things to highligt on:
-There are two executions in this game (as long as more than 10 players remain). If no majorities are reached I may randomly kill one of you.
-You must vote every day, if you don't wish to execute someone then feel free to vote for nobody. He won't mind.
-Day ends at 7 P.M. NST. All lists and votes must be made before then. Night is from 7-9 P.M. NST, all nightly events will happen during that time. Day begins at 9 P.M. NST.
-You may not quote any PM's or conversations relating to the game whatsoever.
-There are no "secret powers," just different role abilities. You are allowed to tell those / make up fake ones. Remember, no direct quoting or faked quotes.
-Everyone has a unique role which does something. There are no plain innocents in this game.
-No spamming. I don't care if you are obsessed with owls; they will not be clogging up this game. Every post must contain some substance pertaining to the game.
-The groupies can kill as well as resurrect once during the game.
-There is a no spamming rule but you are expected to be active. You must vote every day as well as send in any required lists.
-I am very serious about the rules. Those that ignore them will be mod killed. Ben is also helping to enforce these rules.

Players:

Prologue:
You are surrounded by civil war. A few have resisted the ruthless rule of the Sith over the galaxy. There are heroes and criminals on both sides. Some are caught in the middle and only use this to increase their own well being. Others are completely unaffected. One thing is for certain, only one group can rule the galaxy, be it the dictatorial ways of the Galactic Empire, the Rebel Alliance's attempts at restoring democracy, or some new leader rising up from the shadows. Everyone can't hold the power they long for. Only one can come out on top; and the rest will die trying. The future of the galaxy is unknown. The actions that you take now will dictate how this all ends. Good luck and may the force be with you....

The game has started.
All roles have been sent out. If you did not recieve one let me know ASAP.
Day 1 ends at 7 P.M. NST on Monday.
