Hello fellow GDers,
You may have seen people talking about werewolf from time to time on here, especially in places like the Song Contest. If not you're about to see me talking about it.
Werewolf is a game we play in The Club Room there is a game starting up there now, but I'm going to run one here on GD
Sign ups are open until 2pm AEDT Sunday 26th of November, anyone who plays their first game gets a shiny new badge
To help out with the game we've got a bunch of experienced players that will join the game, so there will be plenty to offer advice and show new players the ropes.
The way Werewolf works is everyone who signs up gets randomly assigned a role and a faction. Each faction has it's own win regarding who has to be killed, and the object of the game is to identify and kill the people you faction needs to before the others can do it to you.
The factions for this game are
The game is played in two phases, Day and Night, each phase will last 12 hours.
During the night players with actions will submit actions and targets to try and move their faction towards victory.
During the day good will want the group to vote for and lynch evil, whilst the evil themselves will want not to be lynched; herein lies the fundamental strategy of the game:
Can good identify evil whilst at the same time convincing the rest of the group that they're not themselves evil? And can evil convince the group that they're not evil at all and thus avoid being lynched?
The phases will continue until one faction meets their win condition.
Basic rules:
Roles will be randomly assigned and communicated via PM (except villagers). The villagers must identify and kill all players not aligned with the village before these players can kill enough villagers to satisfy their win condition. Only one faction can win the game.
Each day will consist of two phases:
Night phase (8:00pm – 8:00am AEST)
Players with night actions will nominate targets via PM during this phase. Nominations will not be accepted after 8:00am whether or not deadline has been announced.
Day phase (8:00am – 8:00pm AEST)
After the results of night actions have been announced all players will publicly vote to lynch one player during this phase. Votes will not be accepted after 8:00pm whether or not deadline has been announced.
May vary depending on my workload, commitments etc but please get your actions in early.
Voting:
DAY PHASE VOTING
All votes and change of votes must be bolded, it makes it so much easier to search and see votes. If your vote is not bolded it will not be counted. You do not have to provide a reason for your vote for it to be valid.
No multi lynching, in the case of a tied vote the lynch will be determined by coin toss.
Werewolf etiquette:
DISCUSSING THE GAME
While the game is running players are not permitted to discuss the game anywhere but in this thread, the Dead PM or PM’s related to this game, if you have one. Posting screenshots and quoting PM’s are prohibited. Players caught breaching these rules will be modkilled without warning and will be abused relentlessly in the dead PM.
Deleting or editing your posts in the game at any time will result on in a modkill. You can post screen shots, logos, words etc but just don't be a dick and delete/ edit your posts outside of the few moments you get before the post will display as edited.
Other Modkillable offences:
DEAD PLAYERS
Players who are killed are permitted to post a farewell post provided that it does not impact the game (eg. “thanks for the game” or “good luck”). Dead players must leave the game immediately and are not permitted to post or like posts in the game thread or any PM they are a part of (except the Dead PM) until the end of the game.
