'Are You A Werewolf? - The Final Lynch? p374

[DML]

[youtubeuk]http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=GS-dFiIu1q0[/youtubeuk]


The planet of Gamesradar has imploded. A select few have managed to successfully escape the implosion on a rengade now unregistered spaceship - the USS Esperanto. The mainly male crew has one job, and one job only - to find a new home for humanity to thrive and grow. On their travels, they find a forest moon codenamed RCadia, a planet covered in rich vegetation. The whole ship travelled down to check out the A-Class planetoid, but unfortunately all was not well.

A disease has struck the ship. An alien disease. One that threatens the mission and humanity itself. The Lupus has been unleashed, and only good judgement can stop it, at a time where democracy and basic human rights will slowly crumble.

'STARDATE..........errr.......1.


I don't know how, but it appears the ship has been taken over by a virus, one that threatens us all. The scanners indicate that there are nine non humans on board, and they are of lupine or 'wolf-like' quality. It must have been something on the moon RCadia, and now the whole ship is in jeapordy....'


The wolves shall make their FIRST KILL at 11pm, then and only then can the first accusations be thrown about. Tommorrow, as Captain, Denster will be the very first Mayor. But we'll come to that when it happens...

Note that I will be updating all the major events in this first post under the new 'Major Events So Far' spoiler box. It also means that people watching the game can dip in and out when they like without the action being spoiled for them!

Good Luck Everyone! Let the Games Begin!

TRUST NO-ONE.



Welcome to 'Are You A Werewolf - The Next Generation!'


How does it work -


The game is a role-play game which is simple to learn, and very hard to master. Its a game where the uninformed majority are pitched into battle against the informed minority.

Most players in the game will be 'Crew Members', normal humans. They must try and sniff out the 'Werewolves' - players who have been infected aboard the ship. The humans win if all the Werewolves are eliminated and killed. The wolves win if they can get the numbers down so low that there is an equal or lesser number of humans than 'The Pack' and overwhelm them.

Every day players will be slowly killed off, votes shall be carried out - lies, deception, betrayal, teamwork.....and its all here in this thread!




RULES - EVERYONE MUST READ THESE NO MATTER IF YOU HAVE PLAYED BEFORE OR NOT.V V V

1. Each player will once the game begins recieve a PRIVATE PM that states whether you are a Human or a Werewolf. There are other 'special roles' a couple of which may be kept secret for now, but fundementally you are on either the side of the good guys and the uninformed majority (The Humans) or the bad guys and the informed minority (The Werewolves) The Werewolves will know who all the other wolves are, but the Humans will have no idea for definite who is innocent and who is a bloodthirsty wolf.

The roles are as follows -

Human - A normal human, the most common in the game. Has no special powers, but has the power of humanity and democracy on his side.

Seer - A psychic human, who once a night can 'seer' individuals to see what their identity is. This works in almost all cases. The Seers are the most powerful weapon against the pack

Other Roles - ???

----------------------

Werewolf - The aim of the game for the wolves is simply to kill enough Humans to be able to overwhelm the ship. Can communicate with other wolves in secret freely, and kills every 'night'.

Alpha Wolf - the biggest and baddest of all the wolves, and leader of 'The Pack' - the Alpha Wolf is undetectable by seers and is the biggest scalp for the Villagers. He by default leads the wolf team and is one bad 'motherf*cker.

1a. All decisions based on who is what are totally RANDOM, and are not selected deliberately, and as such this should not influence your decision on who you think 'DML would select'.



2. Once you have died, you cannot win. There is no victory in death for a human. However, if you are a wolf and you die, you can win if the Pack win at the end. Once dead and out of the game, you may no longer communicate with players in the game and cannot post in the thread. Telling secrets to other dead players is also massively frowned upon, especially werewolves as this can ruin the game.


3. Sharing of your PM, via MSN, Xbox Live, via PM, or any other way is absolutely BANNED. No-one can see your private message stating your identity by you. Faking of PMs to post in the thread or otherwise is also outright banned.


4. Every day, a Mayor must be selected. That Mayor must be selected by a general concensus in the thread. The Mayor will make the main decision of the day, and will be immune to Wolf kills that night. This time around, until otherwise stated, this Mayor must be someone who is part of the 'Bridge' the top eleven officers, including the Captain. Once elected, the Mayor will select two prisoners to send to the 'Prison Deck' and the public then vote via PM to myself who they think should be 'lynched'. That player in Mockmaster fashion will be thrown out of the airlock.

4a. Every player gets one vote. The USS Esperanto works by democracy.

5. Every night, the werewolves can kill. On the first night, they shall kill just one player, but after that its THREE kills a night. If a werewolf is killed, its down to two kills a night, and if three are killed, its down to just ONE kill a night. If the Alpha Wolf dies, the Wolves will not kill due a 'night of mourning' and will from then on be able to only kill one player every night.

5a. The werewolves cannot kill the Captain directly due to him having the 'Captains Cabin'. However, the Werewolves can kill anyone else, and the Captain can be killed in other way, albeit lynching or any other death.

5b. If a member of the Bridge is killed, another player shall be drafted in to replace that member of the Bridge. First Officers take priority, but after that, anyone can be promoted. This decision shall be made completely at random by the 'promotion computer'.

6. Some days will see different events happen, that may affect voting procedures, or how players are killed.

7. Players can be killed and thrown out of the game for cheating, being inactive or bending the rules of the game unfairly - or for spamming. Players who are dead and mess with the game may result in players from their own teams being killed. You have been warned.

8. I withhold the right as judge to change the game/rules/elimiantions as I see fit, but always know that I make my decision based on what best for the game, and always consider that I know more about the game from my standpoint then you may know yourself. For that reason, the judges decision is final!


If I think of any more rules they shall be added here! If players want any rules clarified, or anyn added here so they are clear - I shall also do that!

BRIDGE RULES - (Including Denster's original choice of Commanders!) V V V

REALLY IMPORTANT!!! MAKE SURE YOU READ!



CAPTAIN DENSTER CHOOSES HIS BRIDGE COMMANDERS

The following players have been selected to join Captain Denster on The Bridge;


CAPTAIN DENSTER

VICE CAPTAIN DRUMSTICK

Commanders of the Bridge

HEXX
MCN
CLARKMAN
EIGHTHOURS
PHOENIX TENNANT
HUW JAZZ
ROONMASTOR
ANUNG UN RAMA
ZARTAN


Drumstick has become Denster's 'Riker' and is now Vice Captain of this vessel.

Rog, Danzig, Echo, Psychicsykes, Raze, Johnny Blaze, Poncho, Oh Teh Noes, Herbi, Mr Plough and El Diablo Rojo 52 either remain or are demoted to First Officers.


The eleven on the Bridge will have a special power (and this is as complicated as its going to get in the long run people...), only one of THEM can be Mayor every day. No-one can be Mayor more than once in a row, and Denster will be the first Mayor.

Denster also has the Captains Cabin. This means that he CANNOT be killed by werewolves if he isn't one himself. However, he can be lynched, or killed in other ways. This goes for all Captains in the game from now on.

If a member of the Bridge is killed, a random computer decision will PROMOTE one of the First Officers to the Bridge, and they will be able to be put up for Mayor.

EVERYONE on the ship gets to vote and have a say on matters.

Make sure everyone is aware of these few additional rules, I shall now be adding them to the front page in a seperate box.

[Poncho]

Yay!

[Hexx]

Wolves get first kill?

[Kanbei]

Just to reply to Eighty's post in the last topic...

Yes the wolves can kill their own if they want to, hasn't happened in any of DML's games I think. A mayor can choose whoever they want to put in jail they can take in arguments from everyone but it's ultimately their decision. Everyone gets to decide who to lynch though. It's democratic in that respect

[DML]

That was about to be one of my "noob" questions: whether we know if a wolf has been killed. Obviously, given the above, the answer is yes.

Does the Mayor have to take anyone else's suspicions into account when nominating people for a lynching, or can he be a... er... LONE WOLF on the matter?

How will the Mayor be elected by the Commanders?

Presumably the Mayor can be a wolf and choose to lynch either humans on purpose or sacrifice one of his own kind to avoid suspicion?

Mayoral election should be decided by a 'general concensus' in the thread for that person to be Mayor. This is decided by everyone. Although for now only Commanders and Captains from the Bridge can BECOME Mayor, they arent the only one who has a say. No-one will be able to just 'take' power without some sort of concencus.

Mayors should of course listen to what the public has to say, but they can if they so wish choose of their own accord, whether openly or secretly. However of course, all your actions will be analysed by every other player in the game, so be careful!

It happened in the last game.

Hear this epitaph, to xenos from xenophobe,
Hate is our strength, and hope drapes us robe,
Man will ascend, victorious not ye,
So crawl back to hell, brutes of devil-glee.
Hexx is human

Wed Oct 01, 2008 12:26 am - day 9
Judge never vermin, your insistance to stay,
In a state here alive, under night must you all prey,
Not on each other, for that would be swell,
Instead condemning the good, to your stomachs of hell.
JV is human

Tue Sep 30, 2008 12:17 - day 8
Promise of hope, that old damned emotion,
It not appears, instead fast xeno motion,
Today survivors each, though none are not proud,
Help for us few men, begs a fearing night crowd.
phoenix tenn human

Mon Sep 29, 2008 2:35 pm - day 7
Down are raw spirits, under darkness must we steer,
Our time of influence, may collapses if kills clear,
The island of ship, the home of us all,
Must be absolutely human, no monster at all.
Drumstick is human

Sat Sep 27, 2008 11:51 pm - day 5
Such violent events, with evil they rage,
In ether they dwell, the prey with out cage,
No soul claims light, hope is of dank note,
In order to win, we decide who earns such a sad dark vote.
Seered poncho now dead

Sat Sep 27, 2008 10:45 pm - Day 4
The morning is over, the ravagers descend,
Eat us they will, hell offers a trend,
No monster of wolf, none killed except,
Poor victims of innocence, their ghastly loss inept.
titde than one vigi (?)

Sat Sep 27, 2008 1:08am - Day 4
Man and calm trust, not partners in stone,
So I hope soon, under hope most attone,
All fight null darkness, of monster and mind,
Lets pull ourselves up, and fight for our kind.
MCN is human

Fri Sep 26, 2008 2:36 pm - Day 3
Days are early, and none are so guile,
Those dark empty cretins, ravagers so vile,
Should I promote guesses, should I yell loud,
With absent information, none can tell the crowd.
Though I'm not vocal, I'm not out of game,
Its simply a case, of having none to blame,
Label me as inactive, if that is your choice,
But a player can read, without using thy voice.
denster vigi

Wed Sep 24, 2008 3:15 pm - Day 1
They stir in evil, they emerge from raw fright,
I sense such forboding, it haunts under night,
So they emerge from Cadia, its old damnable dark,
Earn all our souls, like fish to a shark.

We make our stand, but where to begin,
On a mission through stars, we've attracted raw sin,
So who is now accused, on a day so early in choice,
Who has suspiscions, who offers their voice?

Seer is i use code
oltsmswbamsbtb........(?)

Hexx died on day 8
JV died on day 7
Drumstick died on day 5

But theres something wrong there with my day count - can someone help me out please? It looks like im 2 days out in the numbering?

But the death of Drumstick, JV and Hexx are all close to BoRs clues - I would say perhaps the wolves picked up on BoR very high risk (and potentially stupid) strategy and killed of the big human threats, but that may be wrong because why not kill BoR straight away? Perhaps BoR was being fed names and was being used by the wolves? Joer was found quickly by a wolf and killed quickly, if they found the second seer quickly they could have manipulated him even more.

Interesting

Theres still the possibility of either MCN or PT being the Alpha wolf.

Post counts in this thread upto Fri 3 Oct ~6pm

I think i have to clarify that the people at the bottom of the list i dont have data for (because the AYAW thread is not theyre most posted topic. I will need help filling in those blanks.

[Eighthours]

A virus? Who was retrofitting the probes that scanned the moon? Why didn't they pick it up? This is something new, folks. Something bad. Our teleport officers tell me that, unlike any virus we've come across before, this one can't be removed by the teleporter's biofilter.

Nine in the crew are wolves, that much is certain. But who, and why? Why can't we reprogram the sensors to be more specific about which life signs are which? We've sent out a general warning call, advising any other ships in the quadrant not to approach us. This ship is on lockdown until Captain Denster comes up with a plan to root out the wolves. We've had no capital punishment for hundreds of years, but I fear that this virus may spread or that those with it may not be able to control their potential violent impulses. We may be FORCED to Space those we suspect of being wolves. One thing's for sure: we have to take this ship back before it's too late!
