General Game Rules:
1.) Have fun. This is not an option.
2.) The mod is always right. Always. Yes, even then. However, if you think there’s some confusion, and it absolutely can’t wait until the end of the game, send me a PM; do not break my game because you died when you didn’t think you should’ve.
3.) (Corrected 1/9/09) Blocks will continue until one of two things happen: The end of a Choice Block is reached, or players vote to End The Block, which will progress to the next CB.
4.) If a block ends with no kills at all, there must be at least one kill in the next block to avoid an Annihilation.
5.) Voting must be done in the format Vote: bluesoul. You should Unvote if you wish to vote someone else. Unvoting is not strictly mandatory but highly recommended as it makes my job of counting votes much easier.
6.) I will keep a vote count as current as I reasonably can without interfering with the game. I am not infallible in this aspect (”But Sir, didn’t you say-- *cough, choke, shudder, die*”) and if you think the vote count is off, say so and I will double check it. Players may request a votecount at any time.
7.) Do not quote any game-related information from outside of the game thread. No Role PMs, no Mod PMs, no AIM logs, no random comments from strangers, nothing. This is a modkillable offense.
8.) Do not discuss the game outside of the game thread unless your role allows you to, in which case you may only do it with the specified players. This is a modkillable offense.
9.) If you have a question, ask it. Depending on whether you ask in-thread or by PM will determine how I reply. I may not be able to answer all questions but I will acknowledge them.
10.) You’re required to post regularly. I prod after 7 days of inactivity and replace after 3 days of no response to the prod. I will be trying to keep a better eye on this than I normally do.
11.) Once you’re dead, you’re no longer subject to the previous rule. As a matter of fact, once you’re dead, stop posting. I will permit one simple “bah” post and nothing more.
12.) Be nice. This is not an option. If you get too out of line I will replace you and that’ll be the end of it. It's a game.
13.) Have fun.
14.) Have fun.
Battle Royale Mafia Rules:
1.) Nameclaiming is forbidden.
2.) Nameclaiming is forbidden.
3.) NAMECLAIMING IS FORBIDDEN.
(Sorry, I didn't want to do it but it's just too prone to breaking the game.)
4a.) This game will use a system of Choice Blocks (CBs). These have set time limits, and during a CB players choose their lynch or lynches for the block, and also submit actions to be carried out for the next block.
4b.) All players that have roles that allow them to communicate privately with other players may do so at any time. A choice block is essentially a combination of day and night.
4c.) Players may lynch as many players as they want per Choice Block, but their roles are not revealed until the end of the block. Additionally, players can vote to End the block, which requires majority as a lynch would.
4d.) Choice Blocks will initially be 21 days (504 hours) long and will decrease to 14 days (336 hours) long when 20 or fewer players remain.
5.) Knowledge of the book is likely only helpful when the game's over due to the forbidding of nameclaiming. I'd recommend reading it anyway just because it's a good book.
6.) Role PMs are all slightly different.
7.) All students are fitted with metal collar Guadalcanal No. 22. Any student attempting to subvert The Program will have their collar detonate.
8.) In addition, if there are no deaths in the span of two consecutive choice blocks, all remaining collars will detonate simultaneously. Should this game state be reached the game will be said to have ended in Annihilation, which is not a win, loss, or draw for any faction. If I suspect players are actively trying to attain this game state I will push to have them blacklisted from playing future mafia games.
9.) Any attempts to vote yourself will have no effect apart from my irritation and your replacement.
10.) I like flavor in games, but I will generally not have it interfere with the flow of the game. So if your role PM seems a little bare it's only to minimize confusion. If I post something that needs clarification please ask instead of being confused, I'm not going to hold it against you.
11.) (Added 1/9/09) If a player submits a choice for the block and is lynched before the end of the block, their action will still go through. This behavior is not unlike the behavior of the stack in magic.
12.) (Added as clarification 2/4/09) If, at any point, a faction has their win condition or conditions met, and there are not any actions pending that would make them not win, the faction has won. If there are such actions pending, they have not.
I may add, remove, clarify and alter rules as I deem necessary to keep the game playable.
Okishima Island School,
Okishima Island,
Kagawa Prefecture,
Republic of Greater East Asia,
1997.
As the sleep-gas started to fade and the students began to stir in the dark, abandoned classroom, the dry crack of a gunshot shocked the students out of their slumber. Some few of them immediately went for the collar they felt around their necks, some screamed in terror at the surreality of the situation, most simply saw the sign at the front of the classroom and knew all they needed to know.
REPUBLIC OF GREATER EAST ASIA
MILITARY PROJECT "THE PROGRAM"
YEAR 50 - CLASS 50
"Good morning, children!", an eerily pleasant man exclaimed, stepping out of the darkness and into the pale light the moonlit window provided the classroom. He had plain features, shoulder-length brown hair, wearing a simple white long-sleeved shirt and black dress pants. His eyes, however, were unsettlingly eager, seeming to scan over everything and everyone constantly. His left eye also appeared to have a nervous tic.
"My name is...well, it's not important is it? What's important is you all! You're here to help our great Republic!"
"You're going to kill us all, aren't you?" a shaky voice asked from the corner of the room.
"Heavens no! Of course not! I won't be killing any of you, that's your job, isn't it?", the man said before doubling over, howling with laughter.
"Ah, but forgive me my joke," he continued, "You are all a very special class! Do you know why?", he asked, looking intently at the room.
The students could only shake their heads dumbly.
"This is the 50th year of the program! And what's more, you're the 50th class to be selected this year! We think that this is a sign from God that you all are going to be a very interesting class to observe! Don't you agree?"
There was only silence from the room, then suddenly one of the students sprang to his feet and scrambled for the door. To everyone's amazement, the man only smiled beatifically at the boy as he ran out of the room and his pattering footsteps could be heard down the hall.
"Number eight, I believe! Hoho, that was quite a run wasn't it?! A pity, really. Excuse me a moment." With that, he walked swiftly to a laptop computer sitting at the teacher's desk which had gone unnoticed. There was a bit of typing from the strange man, and with a laugh of triumph he hit the Enter button.
A shockingly loud detonation could be heard some distance down the hall, intermingled with the boy's scream. Then there was only silence.
Yoshítoki Kuninobu is dead.
"They never seem to remember the collars," the man said with a look of puzzlement as the smoke started to fill the room, carrying with it a terrible stench. Then his eyes brightened. "But there are still all of you remaining!"
"You evil mother f***er! I'll kill you!", a distressed girl shrieked, running up on the man from his side.
For just a moment, it looked as if she may even have gotten to him. The man calmly pulled out the pistol he used to wake the class earlier and aimed it directly at the girl's face. She stumbled and stopped dead in her tracks.
"Would you be so nice as to sit back down?" The man said sweetly, staring at her maniacally. She mutely nodded her assent and turned to walk back to the spot on the floor she was seated at. No sooner did she turn than the man fired, taking her directly through the back of the head. She fell limply forward and cracked her head violently on the tile floor, her blood leaking slowly across the floor to where the students were seated.
Fumiyo Fujiyoshi is dead.
"Terribly sorry about that! You did startle me though. Ah well...how many of you do we still have left? Thirteen boys and thirteen girls? Perfect! When I call your name, you may proceed through this door and across the hall where a guard will give you your assigned Program survival bag and weapon. Mister Sakamochi will be escorting you all as well to make sure you all play nicely! Now, please listen for your name..."
----
"Everyone has their bags now, yes? Good! I see the guards didn't even have to kill anyone! You're doing much better than last year's class. Now, given how special this class is we're going to try something new! You'll note the collars are explosive, as one of your classmates already discovered. Not only do they explode, but they're fitted with a microphone! We'll be announcing regularly when the time comes for us to detonate a collar, and for the first time in over thirty years, you students will be able to vote on who it will be! It's very simple, whoever has a majority of the votes will explode, and so on and so forth. You simply say who you want to kill and we will hear you loud and clear! We're excited to try this again! Now, you should know that this school will become a forbidden zone in fifteen minutes, and anyone still on the premises at that time will detonate, so you should probably get moving! Good luck and God bless the Republic!"
The Program begins.
[Block1:504H:27A:14L]
Block 1 will end on January 30, 2009, 04:00AM, Eastern. Confirm receipt of role in-thread and begin play.
Esper Simperer; Even the court homonculi need someone to look down on.
Jund Fangirl; Few things can describe the bliss of the fangirl's cries fading to silence (broken by occasional munching sounds).
Grixis Emo; 'Why should I go out there? They're all uncaring zombies! *sniff* No one understands me...' Bant Wageslave; Behind every successful knight is a corporate drudge doing his taxwork.
Naya Overenthusiast; Because there is such a thing as too much enthusiasm.
Anyway, I am town and can prove it. Does that make me a threat?
Vote: desCoures
Are you my enemy?! Are you?! O_O
Trust is a weakness, Dagger.
And I forgot to random vote, didn't I?
/default Vote: Cyan
The above is now my new policy in every game with Cyan in it.

11.) (Added 1/9/09) If a player submits a choice for the block and is lynched before the end of the block, their action will still go through. This behavior is not unlike the behavior of the stack in magic.
Will totally mess it up.
Well, I imagine that if we win, that'll stop later abilities from going off, but that's just an assumption. I really wanted to find out how you're going to make sure that, at no point during our mass lynching, there are as many mafia members as non-mafia members alive.
This vote will stand until Seppel does something non-annoying.
Vote Lampdwellr
Your backward logic works against you. Seppel will now feel the need to keep posting until something not annoying comes out, thus leaving us with a whole lot of annoying posts.

Oh god I did not think of that. Unvote Unvote Unvote Unvote Unvote
I love Joboman, Poggy, Niv, and Vezok, because, while they may not be the best players, they still try to win. Having fun is the most important thing to a game, but I've learned that if you don't try to win, then you're ruining everyone else's fun.

I guess this won't hurt since it's twilight, so Vote loran16 for living 20 minutes away from me (at least when he's at college anyhow). You play Magic in the triangle?

Twilight? nah. Go read Court Mafia Day 2 or the end of Hat Mafia day 1.
20 minutes away huh? You wouldn't happen to be a tarhole would ya? We already got one of them here. :-P
As for the question: not really, I usually play magic mainly online, and I've kind of stopped over the last 6 months. Given how i'm a second semester senior, maybe i'll pick it back up.

Are you trying to dismiss the accountability of yourself voting loran?
Are you trying to dismiss the accountability of yourself voting loran?
lolwut. This is the random vote phase and I was trying to start an off-topic conversation. I think any accountability for voting Loran should not exist in the first place since were DATBF right now.
Also no, I'm not a UNC fan, I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Duke fan; I live in Raleigh and worked at Duke library in 2006-2007. And loran, you should go to All Fun N Games in Apex for FNM or a Saturday tournament sometime; it is a really good store with a lot of good but almost never obnoxious limited players.
lolwut. This is the random vote phase and I was trying to start an off-topic conversation. I think any accountability for voting Loran should not exist in the first place since were DATBF right now.
Mmm. Just checking.
Then why bother voting in the first place? You could have just asked the question as it was.
What would you say if I were to tell you scums use inane out-of-topic conversations to give the impression they are participating in the game as part of their lurking-openly facade?
The opening scene says there a Mr. Sokosomething that accompanies the students. But since we're supposed to play nameless, I don't think it's very important.

For just a moment, it looked as if she may even have gotten to him. The man calmly pulled out the pistol he used to wake the class earlier and aimed it directly at the girl's face. She stumbled and stopped dead in her tracks.
"Would you be so nice as to sit back down?" The man said sweetly, staring at her maniacally. She mutely nodded her assent and turned to walk back to the spot on the floor she was seated at. No sooner did she turn than the man fired, taking her directly through the back of the head. She fell limply forward and cracked her head violently on the tile floor, her blood leaking slowly across the floor to where the students were seated.
Fumiyo Fujiyoshi is dead.
"Terribly sorry about that! You did startle me though. Ah well...how many of you do we still have left? Thirteen boys and thirteen girls? Perfect! When I call your name, you may proceed through this door and across the hall where a guard will give you your assigned Program survival bag and weapon. Mister Sakamochi will be escorting you all as well to make sure you all play nicely! Now, please listen for your name..."
----
"Everyone has their bags now, yes? Good! I see the guards didn't even have to kill anyone! You're doing much better than last year's class. Now, given how special this class is we're going to try something new! You'll note the collars are explosive, as one of your classmates already discovered. Not only do they explode, but they're fitted with a microphone! We'll be announcing regularly when the time comes for us to detonate a collar, and for the first time in over thirty years, you students will be able to vote on who it will be! It's very simple, whoever has a majority of the votes will explode, and so on and so forth. You simply say who you want to kill and we will hear you loud and clear! We're excited to try this again! Now, you should know that this school will become a forbidden zone in fifteen minutes, and anyone still on the premises at that time will detonate, so you should probably get moving! Good luck and God bless the Republic!"
The Program begins.
[Block1:504H:27A:14L]
Block 1 will end on January 30, 2009, 04:00AM, Eastern. Confirm receipt of role in-thread and begin play.

There are 13 boys and 13 girls according to the mod, so clearly the 27th person is an abomination of some sort and cannot be trusted.

Trust is a weakness, Dagger.
And I forgot to random vote, didn't I?

That depends on your alignment, of course.
Are you scum?
Also, trust is a double-edged weapon. Its lethality depends on its wielder.

Oh, I am most assuredly town.
I'll note you didn't answer said question though.
That's very very suspicious.
Vote confirmed until further notice.
I do know it.
The question is, is trusting the mod a weakness?

Welcome to Club Everyone.
I'll vote:The Mad Tapper. Because I should have last game.
Exactly what order do you propose to do this in?
Vote Seppel
This vote will stand until Seppel does something non-annoying.
Well, I imagine that if we win, that'll stop later abilities from going off, but that's just an assumption. I really wanted to find out how you're going to make sure that, at no point during our mass lynching, there are as many mafia members as non-mafia members alive.
/confirm
Vote Akid - he's gonna be lynched eventually for scummy behavior, may as well take care of that first
Vote Some One
Vote: Emo Pinata
Vote Lampdwellr
Your backward logic works against you. Seppel will now feel the need to keep posting until something not annoying comes out, thus leaving us with a whole lot of annoying posts.
Vote: RobRoy. Why? I dunno.
Oh god I did not think of that. Unvote Unvote Unvote Unvote Unvote
vote Cubus because Castro isn't used to being voted for.
.
for being first on the list
and for lacking the letter "E" in your name
vote: seppel
hahaha and lol @lampdwellr
Logical Reasoning is dead; Long Live Stupidity
Oh, you two are just sore losers. :3
Vote Seppel x 13
Done.

I guess this won't hurt since it's twilight, so Vote loran16 for living 20 minutes away from me (at least when he's at college anyhow). You play Magic in the triangle?
My role name is Harry Potter.
Way to ruin my fun. Jerkofff.
Twilight? nah. Go read Court Mafia Day 2 or the end of Hat Mafia day 1.
20 minutes away huh? You wouldn't happen to be a tarhole would ya? We already got one of them here. :-P
As for the question: not really, I usually play magic mainly online, and I've kind of stopped over the last 6 months. Given how i'm a second semester senior, maybe i'll pick it back up.
Logical Reasoning is dead; Long Live Stupidity
SCUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
I'm Voldemort and I know Harry Potter is EVILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!
Logical Reasoning is dead; Long Live Stupidity
OMG. I cannot believe I missed this logic. How true do you think this is?
Are you trying to dismiss the accountability of yourself voting loran?

And while I can confirm that there is, in fact, no Harry Potter in Battle Royale, further nameclaims will result in modkills, full stop.

lolwut. This is the random vote phase and I was trying to start an off-topic conversation. I think any accountability for voting Loran should not exist in the first place since were DATBF right now.
Also no, I'm not a UNC fan, I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Duke fan; I live in Raleigh and worked at Duke library in 2006-2007. And loran, you should go to All Fun N Games in Apex for FNM or a Saturday tournament sometime; it is a really good store with a lot of good but almost never obnoxious limited players.

It seems that topic should be left alone since even joke claims will result in modkilling.
I mean to guess roles from a flavor perspective.
Mmm. Just checking.
Then why bother voting in the first place? You could have just asked the question as it was.
What would you say if I were to tell you scums use inane out-of-topic conversations to give the impression they are participating in the game as part of their lurking-openly facade?
