LoL I edited this from Gus, because im lazy, who coppied this from atak because it was thourough. Should work fine!

The Setup

There are 17 players. Of these, 12 are regular villagers and one is a seer; together, these 13 players constitute the good team. The other four players are wolves, who together constitute the evil team. The seer gets a peek before Day 1 begins.

This a completely "vanilla" game, meaning there are no roles other than these three.

The exact PMs to be sent to players are as follows:

Quote:
You are XXXXXX, a villager. You must help the village find the wolves before it is overrun.

You win when the last wolf has been lynched, whether you personally are alive or dead.

Good luck!
Quote:
You are XXXXXX, the seer. Every night, beginning tonight, you may submit the name of one player to the moderator, who will tell you the role (villager, wolf, or seer) of that player. You must submit your peek, by PM,before the thread is opened in the morning; if you do not, your peek target will be selected randomly from among those living players whom you have not yet peeked.

You win when all the wolves have been lynched, whether you are alive or dead.

Good luck!
Quote:
You are XXXXXX, a wolf. Every night, the wolves may submit the name of one villager to the moderator; that player will be killed. If no kill order is submitted before, at the latest, one half hour before the thread is opened the next morning, the kill we be selected randomly from among the remaining villagers (including seers).

You may communicate among yourselves by any means you desire when wolfchat is allowed. Wolfchat is allowed beginning as soon as you receive this message, and continuing through the night; see the thread for rules applying thereafter. If wolfchat is not open, all game-related communication with other wolves must take place in the game thread.

You win when there are as many wolves left alive as villagers, whether you personally are alive or dead.

The complete roster of wolves is:

Good luck!
Players were assigned their roles with a random number generator, without regard to, among other things, their experience, when they signed up, or whether they had confirmed their participation.


The Voting

Each day, each player is allowed (and encouraged) to vote to lynch a player. To do so, type the name of the player in bold; if you want to be sure the moderator sees it, you could be so kind as to write something like "vote: Helen of Troy", but it is not required.You may abbreviate the name of the player, provided it is clear to other players (and the moderator) whom you mean.

It is much easier for the mod if you put the vote at the beginning of a line, as opposed to in the middle of a sentence.

E.g., if you merely bold Coordi, it's not going to be seen as easily as if you put your vote on a separate line:

Voracious Reader

You may remove your vote by posting

"unvote" (again, preferably on a separate line)

You may change your vote simply by voting the new player; you do not need to unvote. (It wouldn't hurt, though.)

At the end of the scheduled game day, the player with the most votes is lynched, and his role revealed in the thread. If two or more players are tied for the most votes, one of the tied players is chosen randomly random.org.

If at any time during the day any player has a majority the possible votes on him (e.g., with nine players alive, five or more is a majority), the day ends immediately and that player is lynched. Any player who believes a player has reached majority should post "night", and all other posting should cease while the vote count is confirmed.

At "must lynch", i.e, when the village must successfully lynch a wolf or lose immediately, voting rules are somewhat different; this will be explained when the time comes.

The Timing

All times given are Eastern Standard Time.

I will open the thread every morning by posting "It is day." I will try to open the thread at 8-9am EST but I may open it early if I go to sleep at an akward time.

(Note: it will not be formally locked, as I lack the power to do that, so you need to refrain on your own.)

Day lasts until 9:30 pm. Posting at 9:30 pm is acceptable, and votes with that time stamp will be counted. Posting after that, even just a minute after, is not acceptable, even if I have not yet declared it night by posting "It is night." Do not post in the thread at any time, for any
reason, between the end of the day and the opening of the thread
the next morning.

Weekends are different: There is not "night" Saturday night -- the thread remains open from Saturday morning until Sunday evening. There is no scheduled Saturday night lynch.

If any player reaches majority and is lynched before 3 pm, the moderator may, at his discretion, reopen the thread for a second game day that same day. He will do so only if it seems clear that this will not unduly disadvantage either side.

Communication

Villagers and seers may not communicate with any other player in the game, other than by posting in this thread. Any communication about the substance of the game (i.e., anything beyond the fact that the game is being played and that you are in it) is prohibited.

Wolves may communicate with each other by any means they desire during wolf chat. In general, wolf chat lasts for the duration of the night, and ends immediately upon the opening of the thread in the morning. However, an exception is made in the beginning of the game, so the wolves may coordinate their communication: wolfchat begins as soon as role PMs go out, and ends at 2 pm the first game day (Thursday). It recommences that
night. Thereafter, no wolf chat is permitted while the thread is open.

Claiming

Character claiming will NOT be allowed in ANY form. Normal villager, seer, wolf (?) claims are obviously allowed

"Welcome to Battle School cadets." Bleary eyed the group arrivals shake off the trip and try to compose themselves before the headmaster, Colonel Graff. "You will all be assigned to the brand new Dragon team. Gather your things and meet your new commander."

Along the way, Graff further explained the situation. "You bunch of losers are going to be tossed in a series of battles meant to test the commander, Ender Wiggen. But to help make sure that accomplishing this will be as hard as possible, I have put agents in your midsts to throw the team down. Muahahahaha

****NOT IN GAME****

Man I love me some Ender's Game. That's probably my favorite book of all time. Sad I missed out here. I could really ramble about this book for a very long time, so it's probably best I stop now.

Probably a few repeated wolves in the rerand (just because). But you posting the list without being provoked is pretty villagery

random thought:
(fake) peeks should not be given too early in the day, because if you are not really seer you want to get some reads first in order to increase the chance of your fake peek being correct
