My Little Werewolf: Friendship is Deceit (NIGHT 1 HAS BEGUN)

[UGXwolf 2]

So, there's this fun game called Mafia. This game consists of lying to other players to keep them in the dark about your identity. After all, if the town were to know that you were really in the Mafia, well... let's just say you might not see another sunset.

 

Now, when this game is transferred to a forum board, it becomes a little more interesting. The players personality get involved and arguments can drag on for days as the players try to decide who to take out of the game. One-by-one, the mafia picks off people at night, and one-by-one, the town picks them off by day.

The rules are simple: If the Mafia, or Werewolves, as the forum game goes, outnumber the normal players, the wolves win, but if the wolves are entirely removed from the game, the town wins. Some players have third-party roles that have their own win conditions, but let's keep things simple for the first game, hmm?

 

Now, naturally, with a game like this, one might be concerned for the bloody events that might follow. That will not be a problem, however, as I will utilize my writing skills to keep things roughly PG. "Deaths" will be comical or anticlimactic. They will be entirely bloodless, and usually won't even involve an actual death.

 

Now, if you have any questions, PM me, ask me here, or find me on Skype and ask me there. Other than that, we begin with a sign-up. If you wish to play, all you have to do is reply to this topic, saying that you want to, and your role will be explained when we begin.

Somebody already tried to start one of these fairly recently, but never got enough players.

 

If this one ends differently I'd be happy to play.

Did they? That's rather discouraging. I mean, it doesn't require too many players. I can make due with just 8, though more is always better. All the same, welcome aboard. :3

[Moon Rat 4,772]

I'll give this one a go

[Champion RD92 8,658]

It sounds interesting, but I have absolutely no idea how to play. 

[Rocco 567]

im in, i was down for the last post but it never worked out!

[UGXwolf 2]

It sounds interesting, but I have absolutely no idea how to play. 

Well, how you play the game depends on what role you get, but the simple versions are this:

 

Innocent: It's your job to try and figure out who the Werewolves are. Each day, the town will get a chance to lynch (or in this case, comedically banish) one player. They will not know who the wolf is.

 

Guilty: The wolves get a kill (or mysterious disappearance) every night. They know the other wolves, and their job is to try and fool the town. Their goal is simply to make it to the end, because once there are less villagers than wolves, the wolves win.

 

As for "how to play," the game kinda explains that on its own. Any special instructions will be given to you via PM, if you earn any.

 

Oh, and when the game starts, I will absolutely PM all players to ensure that everyone knows the game has started.

[Antismurf9001 1,271]

I'll join.  This sounds amusing.

[FaZe Vinyl 521]

Yes please

[UGXwolf 2]

I think that's six players? I have a friend that I'm going to direct to this site, now that I feel certain this game will go through, and within two days, this game should be up and running.

As an added update, there are two other roles that are both village-sided. One of them will be left out, if  the numbers don't add up, but they are both roles that can protect the town at night.

 

One of them is the Doctor, who chooses someone to visit at night. This will save them from wolf attack, should the wolves choose to attack that person. Doc can choose to protect himself, of course.

 

The other role is that of the Body Guard, which acts a lot like the doctor, but with a more dramatic result. Body Guards have a 50/50 chance of killing the wolf, should they choose right, and should that chance fail, the body guard will die, instead of the wolves' chosen victim. Body Guards cannot guard themselves, this time, and if there aren't enough players, I won't be using it.

Well I am the person who has the game similar to yours

 

I have read that they think my gane has been closed but the fact is that I need 10 players at least and I have 8

 

I just wanna say that if my game doesn't turn out with 10 players then I will start with 8 but if it fails I will be glad to join or even help you

[UGXwolf 2]

I did see your topic, after I was informed about it. I also assumed, as the others may have, that it was closed, and if it's all the same, I would be /more/ than happy to join your game, and I do believe I have a friend that's willing to play, as well. However, since we have two topics, how about we treat them as two separate games and let things run their course for the time being? After all, I'm not going to let this game disappear into the ether.

That's nice you do whatever you want and since you joined mine I will join yours

[UGXwolf 2]

That's definitely at least seven players, if Lemon ever gets here. >.>

[AwesomeLemon 3]

Suppose i'm obligated to attend this crazy game of Were-ponies.  (lol)

 

Count me in.

[UGXwolf 2]

That's 8. Plenty to play a respectable game. I'll wait for the other game to start out of respect and so I can modify this one to make it not the exact same, should the need arise. Also, it'll give everyone else ample time to sign up, should they so choose.

[~EM002~ 11]

Mine looked closed because it was not the most eye-catching one but now thanks to yours I have 10 (maybe 11 if your friend joins)

[Rfaliuntbtoewrdsahsyh 5]

I'll play, I'm also part of the other, they both look interesting

[UGXwolf 2]

Alright, I'll be starting this game within the next two days. It'll either be in the evening, tomorrow (GMT -6), or it'll be when I get home from work Wednesday. The players thus far are:

 

Kamil
~ds8~
Dash Blast
antismurf9001
MrXwwetok
EM002
AwesomeLemon
Rfaliuntbtoewrdsahsyh

 

Champion RD92 Is pending. They have yet to respond to my message, so I don't know if they're actually playing.

 

If the roster stays the same, the roles will be:

Alpha Wolf

Beta Wolf

Doctor

Cop

Vanilla townie x4

 

The cop can investigate people at night to try to figure out who they are.

 

9 players will result in this setup:

Alpha Wolf

Beta Wolf

Gamma Wolf

Doctor

Cop

Gunsmith

Vanilla Townie x3

 

I'll explain Gunsmith, if we get there. I'd rather not have 9 players, though. That'd be utter chaos. >w>

 

Any more will force me to create another setup, which I'll do, if necessary.

[Shift 4,272]

I guess I'll play. If Champion RD3 doesn't answer, because as you said, that would be utter chaos. I like Mafia. 

 

Isn't Gunsmith when you give a gun to someone? There was this one setup called gunsmith setup. That was fun, everyone was shooting each other and the mafia guy was all like 'lol losers'.

[ShyForever 284]

Sign me up.

I don't care what I am; this game sounds fun!

[UGXwolf 2]

Mmm, fun times. Alright, I'll sign you two up and add you to the roster. And yes, the funsmith setup is hilarious. I may set that up just for laughs, at some point, but for now, we'll stick to more simplistic setups.

 

Also, for anyone wondering about how this game will interact with the other one: It won't. They'll be two separate games. The differences will be in how the setup plays. While Pinkie's will be a touch silly in gameplay, mine will be more serious. Although, it's hard to say what will happen. That's really up to the players themselves.

 

So, I'll go ahead and make it official: I'll be passing out the PMs at 11PM CST (GMT -6) and I'll be making the actual story post at some point the following morning. Most of you will be asleep, so the exact time isn't important.

What do you mean silly game play?

[UGXwolf 2]

I mean yours game wound up with an RP style, whereas I intend mine to be more to-the-point. At the same time, your stories will be more serious while mine will likely be pretty silly, since I plan on killing characters without actually killing them.

[Kamil 315]

It may just be that there's nothing to do on the first day. I mean, nobody's even done anything yet to start the metagame of "Who would have done that if they had the ability to do so?" let alone get any results back from abilities, and voting is private so there is no questioning of motives there.
