Werewolf/Mafia - A forum game.

First topic message reminder :

It has come to my attention, that this forum had been lacking a thread for the game Werewolf, also known as Mafia up to now. Thus, I've decided to launch one of them.

Werewolf Rules:

At the beginning of a round of Werewolf, all participating players will be assigned a role, which will be determined randomly. Most players will be Villager roles, while there will be a small number of Werewolves and other roles as well, depending on the size of the game.

There are two alternating phases, a Day phase and a Night phase.
The game starts in a Day phase. In this phase, all players can communicate freely with one another. All players can vote for a player to lynch or to perform no lynch for the day.
Should a previously set amount of time (usually 2-3 days) have passed, the player, who has recieved the most votes, will be lynched and thus removed from the game. Their role will be revealed for all to see. Should a player recieve the absolute majority of votes before the time is over, the day ends immediately with that player lynched.
A lynched player can not participate in the current round anymore, including talking.

As the Day phase ends, the Night phase begins. In it, talking is not allowed.
The Werewolves use PMs to talk to each other and agree on a player to kill.
This target will then be PMed to the host of the game by one of them.
Other roles with abilities, that can be used during the night PM the host, which player they want to target, if they want to do so at all.
After the host has recieved targets from all roles capable of targeting or a previously set amount of time has passed (usually 1-2 days), the Night phase ends, and all dead players will be revealed, including their roles. As the night ends, another Day phase begins.

This cycle continues, until either the Villagers or the Werewolves have achieved their victory condition.

You are not allowed to talk about the game outside of this thread!
Quoting, Fakequoting and using screenshots are not allowed!


The Roles:

Villager: The Villager is the most common role. Villagers only know their own role in the beginning. They have no powers aside from the right to vote for a player to lynch in the Day phase. They are aligned with the Town Faction and thus win, should all Werewolves die.

Werewolf: The Werewolves are the antagonists of the game. While there are few of them, every Werewolf will recieve the names of the other Werewolves per PM at the beginning of a round. Not only can they vote for a player to lynch in the day phase, but they can agree on a player to kill in the Night phase as well. They are allowed to communicate between themselves using PMs. They are aligned with the Anti-Town Faction and win, should they outnumber the Town Faction.

Alpha Wolf: Functions exactly like a normal Werewolf, but shows up as a Villager, should it be investigated by the Seer.

Doctor: The Doctor is a Villager with a special ability. There will only be one Doctor in a round. The Doctor can vote on a target to lynch in the Day phase. In the Night phase, it can PM the host a player to protect. Should that player be the target for the Werewolves to kill that night, the kill will fail. The Doctor can protect itself. Since it is aligned with the Town Faction, it wins, should all Werewolves die.

Seer: The Seer is a Villager with a special ability. There will only be one Seer in a round. The Seer can vote on a target to lynch in the Day phase. In the Night phase, it can PM the host a player to investigate. As the next Day phase begins, the Seer will be told the role of the investigated player with a PM. Since it is aligned with the Town Faction, it wins, should all Werewolves die.

Vigligante: Can choose a player to kill every night, but doesn't have to. Wins with the Town Faction.

Serial Killer: Can choose a player to kill every night, but doesn't have to. Wins, should everyone else be dead.

Lovers: Always at least two players. Should one of them die, the other one commits suicide. All Lovers know of the innocence of their loved ones. They can talk with each other per PM. They win with the Town Faction.

Jester: Wins, should it be lynched. Loses, should it survive or die for another reason than being lynched.

Other Roles: While many other possibilities for roles exist, I'll keep it simple at first and only use these roles. Should I add another one for a later round, I'll explain it.


Voting: Every player has exactly one vote for each Day phase.
To vote, please use the following format:

Vote: Playername

If you would like to withdraw your vote, use the following format:

Unvote: Playername

You can cast your vote onto another player, should you withdraw your first vote.

Should there be a two-way tie, the lynched player will be determined randomly.
Should one of the tieing parties be No Lynch, the Lynch will happen.
Should there be a three-or-more-way-tie, no lynch will happen.


I will now wait for participants. Should we get enough participants, I will start the round and send out the role PMs.

Should there be any questions, feel free to ask me!




Current Players:

-Savato
-Pichupichuuu






Hosting order:


-Suds, Madness of Intellect

-MexterInfinite, Winner of the Vietnam War

1 mex
1 sav
1 pikashock

Oh, I should also probably clarify my thoughts in case I didn't make sense. Pikashock did not actually search me, so I'm not guaranteed to be a non-wolf in everybody other than Savato's eyes. The only person guaranteed to not be a wolf is Sakura, who is the only person here that roleclaimed doctor.
If we go ahead and not vote for anybody, or vote in such a way that nobody gets lynched, then the wolves will kill either Savato, Myself, MexterInfinite or Pikashock (not Sakura, as she is confirmed innocent and will thus be protected by herself). If I am killed, my role will be confirmed, and Mexterinfinite will be outed as a wolf, but we won't know who the other wolf is for sure. If Mexter is killed, both myself and Savato will be outed as wolves. If Savato is killed, both Pikashock and mexter will be outed as wolves, since I will be confirmed to be a villager. Finally, if Pikashock is killed, Savato will be outed as a wolf, but whether I or Mexterinfinite is a wolf will be left unknown. It is in the wolves' best interest to kill either me or Pikashock, assuming that neither of us are wolves ourselves.
(I did not say what would happen if Sakura is killed because her death is a worst case scenario. Her decision to protect somebody else would not be worth the risk.)

I believe Mexter's a wolf because he didn't object to you being a villager Ant, and he doesn't seem to be defending himself. He knows that if another villager dies we'll lose, so either he doesn't care or he's a wolf and knows Sav a has a chance of finishing.

Hm.
Well, we could just vote for Mexter now.
Obviously, it's extremely risky; if he isn't a wolf, Sakura has a 33.3% chance of protecting the right person, and then everybody would be stuck not knowing whether you or Savato is the other wolf. But there's currently a 25% chance of winning if we do nothing (50/50 chance of beating the wolves tomorrow, then 50/50 chance of beating them again the next day disregarding the doctor). If you think that Mexter's wolf nature is likely enough to risk nigh-immediate failure, feel free, because if we abstain today, we'll be leaving everything solely to lady luck - which is, at least, better than leaving everything to the wolves.

As it stands, if nobody changes their vote I think nobody goes out. I'm probably not getting targeted, because if I Am they see I'm the Seer, and those two are seen as wolves. That means either Ant or Saku are at risk of getting voted off. But, I have a feeling Tex is the wolf. Unless of course he's a villager, or Ant, Sav and Tex are all working against because of my prior comments. I find that highly unlikely though, and I trust my gut.

Unvote: Savato.
Vote: MexterInfinite.

Vote: Pikashock

Well...it seems Mexter is the best choice right now....

Vote: Mexter

It's funny as technically the round should've ended 40 minutes ago... PICHU YOU FAILED TO KEEP YOUR SCHEDULE! NO EXCUSES!

*throws added time*
ADDED 42 HOURS. ACT LIKE I POSTED THIS AT 6:22

Some Updates.

Basically I told Pichu about his failure to keep correct timing on werewolf (6:22 PM EST for this day cycle) in the chatbox. Sav was there was well and we talked about him not doing anything. He said he had to do stuff, Sav said he should say a day beforehand. Pichu said about how he isn't very exact on his timing, and me and Sav said that the game is about being exact and the timing of a half hour can change what happens in a game. So yep. There's an update.

Then Pichu adds a whole another 42 hours to the game... The heck...

This subject is mostly brought up as Sakura's post is a half hour after the expected time to update the game.

I lied. IM DOING HAPPILY AFTER EVER... wait i spelled that wrong. anyways i think werewolfs loose but okay. IM JSUT GONNA RAGEQUIT HERE


The villagers woke up to something strange. Everyone woke up and went to the still-remains of the town hall and noticed that there were two players fixing up the town hall-- for no apparent reason. The villagers felt this was a bit strange. They approached and conversation happened and then something happened. The server crashed. The server died. The server.. Shut down. It went kaput. The computer died. YOU ALL WIN LOOSE BECAUSE IM CRUEL LIKE THAT.
ROLES!
Ant - Villager
Sakura - Doctor
Pikashock - Seer
Savato - Werewolf
Xeryd - Villager
Shadow - Villager
Mex - Werewolf
Golden - Jester WON

I'll be in the next game.

Also, I have so much to say about Pichu's post, but won't for many other reasons.

Well...that certainly was an eventful round. Congratulations, everyone!

Signups for the next round are now OPEN! It will be hosted by Antonm1103!

Ok not joining, but I'm just going to say that is complete bull sh*t in my opinion and that's not what Happily Ever After is.

^THAT is happily ever after, this is just the host calling it quits JUST because of a few complaints, although instead of extending it he should have just ended the day phase or smite the complainers for being picky about the time, if it was off by an entire day, THEN it's alright to complain in my opinion, but less than an hour? Dudes...seriously...
Okie, i'm done complaining about this and will resume being a spectator once more. *poofs*

I'm in for the next game. I'm sure Ant has something cooked up.
