Non Vanilla newbie game - Night Three - No lynch

**** THE RULES ****

1. I can't break the law. I am the law. In any situation, I have the final say, although your input is welcome.

2. Vote and unvote in blue. I.e. Vote Fircoal, even if he isn't in this game. No blue = no (un)vote.

3. If you vote for someone and then wish to vote for someone else, you must unvote first, or the new vote won't be counted.

4. Days will last no more than 96 hours. Nights will last no more than 48. That is, 96/48 hours plus whatever time I need to get to the computer and declare the day or night is over. Until my announcement, you may continue talking and doing what your role allows you to do.

5. Lynching requires a majority of valid votes. Once that majority is reached, the lynch will happen no matter what. Unvoting will no longer have an effect at this stage.

6. Do not discuss this game outside of this thread, unless your role PM says you may.

7. If you have any questions, ask me. If they are of a general nature, you may ask the vets in this thread (like: if someone is lynched and turns out to be a jester, and you want to know what a jester does, ask the vets in the thread. If you yourself are a jester and you don't understand the role, ask me in a PM.)

8. Don't worry about that example. There aren't actually any jesters in the game, nor are there lynchers/lynchees, since I think they suck and I am the law. See rule 1.

9. No talking at night, unless your role says you may talk.

10. Try to keep the irrelevant spam down, please.

11. Be active or you will be replaced.

12. Don't ever edit your posts. If you have something to add or correct, do it in a separate post.

13. Once you're dead, you're dead. You may under no circumstances reveal anything about the game. Calling everybody a bunch of idiots and promising you'll haunt them till they die themselves is fine, but no suspicions or revelations of any kind ever.

14. No typing in small fonts cause it annoys me.

15. No quoting of your PMs, other than your role. The rest, you may loosely describe in your own words.

All new players: this is the first thing that needs to be done every game, if ga7 is in the game makes sure he's lynched. :)

DAY ONE

Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away, a group of eager neophytes gathered on the central square of Scumburg.

"Master," they said. "We want to learn how to kill and survive. We want to learn how to track down scum and tear them to tiny pieces in your mercy. We want to learn how to lead the good people of this town to victory in our ongoing battle against the mafia. Although it is whispered that there are those among us who seek to eradicate us good folks by sneakily slaughtering us when we sleep!"

Cries of outrage went up, although an unidentified voice was heard to whisper: "Damn straight!"

"So it shall be," the Master replied. "You shall vote to lynch one among you every day, until all evildoers have been waterboarded into extinction. Get them all as quickly as possible, for at night they will come knocking and you will not be happy and not just because they woke you up."

Day One has begun. No valid votes yet.

Vote Count:

ga7 (aka Frenchie): 2 (Lord Voldemort, Tripitaka)

I added two rules:

1. Be active.

Both are very important. A violation of either one will result in severe penalties.

Votes AND unvotes in blue, or they don't count, Mr. Vet Sir.

***

Is there a logic to these votes? Excellent question. The answer is: no, there is no logic yet, because there are no clues yet. And yet, voting is a good thing, because it's the only way to get discussions going on Day One.

The goal for town (for scum too, by the way) is to gather information. You can do this using your various kinds of investigations, but at this point in time, you haven't been able to do that yet.

Another way of gathering information is to vote for people and see how they react. The first votes are inevitably completely random. Nonetheless, at some point, people will find a reason or at least an excuse to massively vote for the same person. This is called a bandwagon.

When the bandwagon person comes close to being lynched, he or she will claim: i.e. say what role he has and what he's done with it so far, in an attempt to convince town to spare him. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

When someone is lynched, I will reveal his role. This, again, is information. Depending on what he turns out to be, you may gather additional information from analysing who voted for him, and how and when. To give an example: mafia will generally be reluctant to kill their own. On the other hand, once they see that their scum buddy is beyond salvation, they may join the bandwagon to appear innocent.

Given the way the game is set up, the first lynch has a very high chance of being a mistake (there are more townies than scum, so statistics demand a random lynch is likely to kill a townie"). As the game progresses, though, town will gather more and more information, and sooner or later solid eveidence will turn up that Soandso is scum.

So, no, there is no logic to these votes yet, but they are a necessary first step to get to a point where the votes become less random and more logical.

In my personal opinion, Day One is the least interesting phase of the game, but if you get through it, things will soon become much more fun.

Is there a list of roles? Because, with this bandwagon thing you're talking about, and the person telling who they are to try to save their life, seems like it could be worthless if someone was like "Spare me! I'm the secret magical ecuadorian princess!". Because well, let's face it, nobody wants to kill the secret magical ecuadorian princess, but if we don't know what she does than she might get lynched.

I think that's part of the fun. Not knowing if I really am the "secret magical ecuadorian princess" makes it more strategic on my end.

Hint: I am the SMEP. Bow down.
