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!
