Rules: (by Forte and Silver, modified slightly in regards to Secret Powers)
Other things to be aware of:
The Innocent team in this game is split into Republicans and Democrats. If all evil players are defeated, the game will end. Whichever innocent team has the most support will then win the election and the game. Of course, if all innocents are defeated, the last remaining baddie team will win and the election will be irrelevant.
How the election works: Every innocent has a number called "Voter Appeal" at the bottom of their role. These are allowed to be discussed. Every day, each living player's Voter Appeal number will add that many voters to their side. If someone dies during the day, they will get credit for the fraction of that day they spend alive, starting and ending with 9:00 PM NST.
Day ends at 9:00 PM NST (Pacific Time). Night will happen immediately afterwards, so any lists not in by 9:00 may not be counted. If you send in a list, please put the number of the night you are sending in a list for in the subject line.
I think that's all. There may be a plot, but that won't come until later. Game on!

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, where there may be more than one baddy team. The last player standing's team is declared the winner, while all other teams receive placement ranking relative to when their last player was eliminated. However, beware everything is not always as it seems.
The game is split into two parts: A night, and a day. During day, the majority of events occur. Discussions, voting, and day-powers 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. An individual will receive either a role for the innocents or against the innocents (for one of many teams), and often this role is paired with a specific description--often which enables that individual certain privileges that helps his/her respective side end as victorious.
Roles are malleable. 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 received from every team member one day in advance (24 hours). Failure to abide by this rule will result in immediate expulsion from all following games led by this MC (Master of Ceremonies).
Secret Powers:
Roles are often paired with Secret Powers: distinct privileges given to individuals which enable them to engage in certain activities throughout the game.
It is essential to maintain that these secret powers MAY NOT BE DISCUSSED, except with your teammates if you are on an evil team. Although roles are allowed to be publicly discussed, secret powers are to be remained in secret. This includes any powers that have or have not been used. You may allude to what secret power you have, but MAY NOT refer to it directly.
Example: If you have a secret power which allows for a day kill, you may claim authority for the death after it happens, but you may not say that "He died because I had the secret power to day kill." This rule is very difficult to understand, so PM me if at all you are questioning whether your actions will bypass it.
Furthermore, you are not to discuss artificial secret powers. This is a game of deciet, lies, and trickery, but secret powers are to be remained independent of this. In other words, don't even mention secret powers because it may cost you're activity in the game. There are powers that are associated with a role directly that do not classify as secret powers (this will be explicit in the PM's that I send out), in which case those role-powers may be discussed. Often, what differentiates secret powers and role powers is the fact that secret powers can only be used a limited amount of times.
How to play:
The game itself is rather straightforward. There will be a day and a night. Day will begin from 10:31 pm NST and end at 10 pm NST. At that point, the innocents will execute their choice, and night will begin--which will ensue between 10 and 10:30 pm NST. The MC reserves the right to modify the times of day and night, so be attentive in the game thread in case my schedule cannot cooperate with those times.
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 one innocent-elected execution per day. 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.
To unvote:
Unvote: (Insert player's name).
In order to execute one individual, a plurality of votes must be reached. In the event of a tie, I will use a randomizer to determine who will be executed.
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 the time specified below. Any lists sent after that time will be discredited, and action will be determined based upon my discretion. Most of the time, I will delineate what happens if you don't submit in your PM (if this applies to you).
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 resurrected, and you may not post in the groupies thread unless you are dead. Rules involving the groupies are posted in the first post of the thread.
The Dead:
The dead have the groupies thread as their own.
When you die, you are not allowed to divulge anything that was not divulged during the game. You may however be resurrected, and so may persuade people to resurrect 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.
Rules (more summarized, but anything I may have missed that is referenced above still applies):
1. You may lie about everything in this game except for anything having to do with Secret Powers. 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.)
3. Exposing your team is not allowed unless written permission is given to me, the MC, 24 hours in advance.
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.
6. I reserve the right to interpret the rules as I see fit and arbitrate issues on that premise. I am the final authority on interpretation therein.
If you witness someone breaking these rules, let me know by PM ASAP. Tolerating someone who breaks a rule is just as bad as breaking a rule yourself.
