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!

I am not going to post who I think is the seer and who I think is the doctor since it doesn't really matter anymore. All that matters CURRENTLY is who's good and who's bad.

Ant, you're not getting this. RIOLU IS CLAIMING TO BE VILLAGER. If you REALLY ARE the Seer and since you claim you researched me, YOU WOULD KNOW. Since you are NOT what you claimed to be YOU ARE A WOLF.
<If you're somehow not then may I be trampled by my own horse....AND LIVE! *shot*>

When someone claims to be a 'villager', he could be claiming to be on the villager's side. Docs are technically villagers as well, as are seers. They do live in the village, and they win upon a villager win.
Incorrect terminology doesn't immediately mean wolf.

But what's the point in hiding it currently? The wolves know that one person is seer, one person is villager and one person is doctor. Either way, if a GOOD GUY gets voted out this turn, villager side is screwed. If a wolf gets voted out, Wolves are screwed unless they can convince one good guy they are good.

Then look at it from his perspective (assuming he's a doc):
If I'm a wolf, and I'm lying about you, saying that he's a doc is a death wish. For all he knows, we're both wolves, and we're doing this as a plot to reveal who the doc is and who the villager seer is. Or perhaps he believes that I made a lucky guess. Either way, he doesn't want to reveal himself to a wolf.
If I'm a seer, it'd probably be smartest to reveal himself, but that's only if he's willing to take the risk. Which it appears he doesn't.

EDITED to say seer instead of villager.

It doesn't matter if the doctor reveals himself(i'm assuming he since i'm the only female left) either, even if he gets killed, if a werewolf is killed this turn werewolves are screwed because then we will know who is lying and who is not and the villagers win.

Question to Pika though: WHY U NO SAY ANYTHING?!?

Honestly I have to agree with Kat about how Ant and Riolu would be the remaining two werewolves. From the very beginning Ant's been playing exactly how I figured he would if he was a wolf, and unless Kat is working with him somehow privately during this discussion then I doubt that she's a werewolf. Suds voted for Mex, so that would be a really stupid move if he were a werewolf so it probably isn't him. I know I'm not a werewolf, and Riolu has even from the beginning of the game been voting to kill someone, the first time voting Suds for no real reason, and yet Ant wasn't as frustrated with him as he was with the people who voted Bronze. I believe that Kat's a villager and Suds is one of the special classes.

There's probably a 99/1 chance that he's a wolf. That is a chance I'm not willing to take, because if it IS revealed that he's a doc, defeat is assured. I'm not voting for either of the characters that may be a doc, and am thus voting for the definite wolf and researching Rio on the next night.

You know what? I've got an idea!
Everybody should lynch ME. Right now. Just lynch me. When it's proven that I'm a seer, the Doctor (either suds or rio *edit*) will have a one in two chance of saving the correct person, which is sure as hell better than the insane chances we have right now. I'll even go ahead and Unvote: Pika and Vote: Antonm1107. Then, both villagers will vote for Pika, and it will be a 50/50 chance of winning again, and if it's revealed, Kat will know who the last wolf is (assuming he doesn't join in the lynching of Pika, which is also a good thing, since the doc certainly knows who the remaining villager is and who to protect. And stuff. It'll be confusing, and I'll be leaving much to chance, but it's better than everybody just killing each other and being suspicious of each other.)
Seriously. Vote now.

Fair enough I suppose, if that's really what you want. I'll call your bluff.
Unvote: Riolu
Vote: Anton

After a long evening full of exhausting discussions, Antonm1107 decided to sacrifice himself for the greater good. He had already known, that it would come to this. He had already known much of this. Thus, he didn't flinch at all as he was stabbed through the heart with a sword.
With a smile on his face, he sunk to the ground, muttering:
"I told you...maybe now you'll listen..."
A search of his house revealed various crystal balls, tarot cards and the like.

Antonm1107, the Seer has been lynched. It is now Night. The Night phase will last 45 hours and 50 minutes from the time this post was made or until I have recieved all relevant PMs.

As the morning rose again, RioluOmega, the Doctor stumbled out of his house, having apparently slept through the night. Shocked, he realized, that in front of his house the Werewolves Pikashock and Suds were waiting, behind them the bloody corpse of BlueKat12 the Villager and a map, that had apparently been written in her blood. Sighing, he took a large amount of various drugs and passed out almost instantly as the wolves maimed him.

The town had fallen...

The Werewolves have won.


Congratulations to the wolves! The sign-up for the next round begins now! If you would like to join, please add your preferred setting as well. (Portal, hacked site, another village etc.)

Remember, sign me up forever!

I want another village every time

Sign me up again!
Edit: I'm gonna go with another village.

I'm in for another game. And for my preference I think overusing the same village concept every time will get a bit stale, and so something different would be nice.

I'm in for another game and i'm not bothered with what setting as long as it's clearly explained. I'd prefer not another village since we should give the other ideas a try x3
