	A							B					C
1	Town Jailkeeper				Vanilla Townie		        Vanilla Wolf
2	Wolf Roleblocker			Town Cop		        Town Doctor
3	1-shot Bulletproof Townie	        Vanilla Wolf			Town Tracker

The proposed setup for this game is called Matrix6. The setup will consist of one of the six rows or columns above, with the remaining players being Vanilla Townies and one Vanilla Wolf. The setup is not announced, meaning if you are Vanilla Town, you do not know if its setup A, B, C, 1, 2 or 3 at the beginning of the game.

Vanilla Townie - You have no special powers except your intelligence. The most common role in TWG.

Town Jailkeeper - Whoever you choose in the night is protected by the wolf nightkill but also is roleblocked, which means if they have an action, they will not be able to perform the action. You cannot target the same player two nights in a row and you cannot target yourself.

Town Cop - Each night you get to target one person and are returned with a result of their alignment (e.g. "red","green"). Red means they are a wolf, green means they are town.

Town Doctor - Each night you get to target one person and save said person from the nightkill. You cannot target the same player two nights in a row and you cannot target yourself.

Town Tracker - Each night you target someone and see if that person targets anyone. If you target someone who doesn't have an action, you will get "no result." Visiting works such as "Player A targets player B with a night action, and is targeted by player C. Player C sees that Player A visited Player B."

1-Shot Bulletproof Townie - If you are targeted by the wolves for a wolf kill, you survive once. If you get targeted again however, you will die then. Does not prevent death via lynching.

Wolf Roleblocker - Each night you can block someone from doing their night action, and you get to make a nightkill w/ your partner.

Vanilla Wolf - Same terminology as Wolf Goon. You just make a night kill with your partner.

Wolves have a factional chatroom in a private location where they can discuss anything they want, game-related or otherwise, at anytime.

All town players (living or dead) win when all the wolves have died.

All wolves (living or dead) win when the number of towns is equal to the number of wolves, or nothing can prevent this from occurring.

Voting for players is done using the tags of [twgv]the sun fan[twgv] but including a / at the beginning of the second tag.

All players who have questions for me should ask them privately (via FFR PM or discord). My discord info is thesunfan #0147. Take care not to specifically mention anything I told you; posts along the lines of "I asked sunfan to clarify [insert thing here] and he said that it works like this" as these kinds of posts are against the rules. If you believe you cannot play the game any longer, please request a replacement privately.

Take care to only post in the thread during the day phases. Posts slightly after the day has ended (up to 5 mins or so) will not be punished unless I believe you are attempting to abuse this grace period.

In TWG's context, a post is collection of thoughts about an event that leads to dependant events or random fluctuations based on the value of the content. Dependant events would be like someone saying something logical leading to another logical post who would eventually unveil a part of the truth either about other players or themselves. Another example would be someone claiming a role and becoming clear because no one else claimed the same role which means it should be true (don't do this unless you have a good reason to because will most likely become the night kill). A random fluctuation is usually chit chat which are like attempts at drawing a picture of how the game should be like. This can be read as a progression and it's like the third component after actions and intentions that helps read players. (does their story makes sense despite having good actions/intentions ?)

The post can be used to express the actions of the player (what they're trying to do), the intentions of the player (why they're trying to do it) and we're here to try to validate the authenticity of what's being said (the progression) to find out who's town/wolf.

Note that wolves will have to mislead others and make it look like they're town so, they may appear as townier than town players because they know more information due to the fact that they know they're wolves so, they also know who are all the town players except their role which is something they may try to figure out and to keep an eye on. Therefore, wolves at some point are likely to try to shift the game in another direction if they're in danger. Early game it's more difficult because we can't rely as much on this due to the high likeliness that wolves didn't need to do anything to get a town player lynched.

I'm about to go work. I'll be more active later on.

[who_cares973]

I have a red check on charu

[who_cares973]

Charu pls explain

[who_cares973]

1) who_cares973 -town thru n thru
2) jessiebessie - probably town because my sister is a wolf and you can't have two wolves named Jessica
3) NinjaSM- I have pretty good vibes from you and your posts are overall really good so far I can definitely see these posts being made by town
4) Syhto - probably town but it's hard to say because my tone read doesn't match my meta read
5) Anti-Pearl - WILD CARD
6) Yoandri- super wofy behavior because she wanted me killed before the game even started
7) funnygurl555 - she was super excited to play and that's town in my eyes
8) Charu - definitely a wolf
9) Hakulyte - 3 vest guy you can't even kill. Probably town but his posts have me on edge

My sides have lifted off, oh my goodness.

[Hakulyte]

Charu, I may lend you a vest if you tell me why a post is a miserable pile of words in a jTWG game!

That's a pretty safe statement, but I'm curious why you said "Probably".

It's like you don't know or that you know, but you didn't want us to know that you know so you used "Probably".

That's debatable tbh.

gtg work for now.
