I kind of want to see how Vic's game plays out. Also, that'll give me time to hunt down my copy of Dark Cloud 2 and play it. =P

Re: Twg - lxxxi host sign ups

wait so what is the deadline for the supervisor? or can he just see that someone already has 6 votes and then just choose them?

and your game really seems to encourage phantoms. especially the forager

taking my vote off for now

Re: Twg - lxxxi host sign ups

I don't think you read correctly; the supervisor can overthrow a lynch, and that gives everybody phantoms who voted for the lynch. So there can be a lot of phantoms that are not necessarily due to inactivity.

All of these games seem pretty human biased to me. I'll withhold my vote for now.

Added a new tactic to reduce human bias.

The Backdrop:

Soon after Knuckles’ and the Chaotix defeated Dr. Robotnik and Metal Sonic at Carnival Island, Mal, the interim proprietor of Newtrogic High Zone, shut down the park “until further notice”. Granted, those who frequented the monolithic amusement park were disappointed, but the presence of homicidal robots violated local safety codes, and besides, people were willing to sacrifice if it meant a stop to Eggman’s shenanigans. In the proceeding media interview, Mal hinted that the park would reopen soon, but never gave any official word. Several months passed, and there was still no word on any preparation for reopening, so many assumed that the park was abandoned and moved on. Carnival Island has been absent from the public consciousness – until now.

Out of nowhere, Mal has proudly announced that Newtrogic High Zone has been reopened, bigger and better than ever! Turns out that Mal spent all that time planning and building his dream park! In a stroke of genius, he reprogrammed all the badniks left on the island and made them into friendly staff members, and with their help he was able to build “like, the greatest amusement park ever, dude!” Due to a prominent feature in World Treasure magazine, customers came in from all over the world. Things were going great for everyone.

However, someone has come along to ruin the fun. The Chaotix returned to Carnival Island, and were innocently exploring the rebuilt park, when suddenly they happened upon a strange sight…

------------------------------------------------------------

What did they see? What happens to Carnival Island? You’ll have to play to find out!


Knuckles' Chaotix 2!


The Setup:

This is a mystery game. You will only know the amount of each type of role, and even this info will not be conclusive. Each role is unique in its own way, and everyone can be part of the action.

16 Players:
4 Reds
5 Blues
7 Greens

NIGHT TALKING: ON
INSTA-LYNCH: OFF
ITEMS: ON
CORPSELOOTING: ON (Anyone who participates has a fair shot at getting any items the player had upon death)
NONSTANDARD GAME

What's Goin' On?

This is a nonstandard game and does not strictly follow the usual objectives. Most significantly, the game is not won for the town by eliminating all the reds. The humans must accomplish a mission by strategizing and collecting items. All the reds can be dead and the game won’t be over, or the game can be won with reds remaining alive. Even if all the reds are dead, the game can still end in a draw if the town is foolish enough to believe that there are still traitors among them, and kill each other until there are not enough humans left to accomplish the mission. As such, the reds’ objective is to whittle down the humans until there are no longer enough to complete the task.


YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT:
You must restore Carnival Island by acquiring the 6 Chaos Rings and reactivating the Power Core.

Instructions:
1. Any blue or green who has one or more Chaos Rings (each person can carry two items) must PM the host during the same phase saying that they wish to reactivate the Power Core.

2. In addition, one other person must volunteer to be the Medium to channel the energy of the Chaos Rings. They must send in a PM during the same phase as those who have the Chaos Rings saying that they wish to be the Medium. In the case of multiple people volunteering to be the Medium, the winning candidate will be chosen at random.

6 Chaos Rings + 1 Medium = 4 humans, minimum, needed to win the game.

- If all the PMs are sent in the same phase and all the Chaos Rings are present, the reactivation will be a success and humans win the game.
- If all the requisite PMs are not sent in the same phase, if any of the Chaos Rings are missing, or if a Red participates in any way (by presenting a Chaos Ring or volunteering to be the Medium), the reactivation will fail.

Thus, it will take teamwork and thinking to set up this situation. The reds will try to lead the humans into a situation where they can easily prevent or sabotage the reactivation. It is the humans' job to recognize such trickery and gain the upper hand.

The Combi System


LET'S WORK TOGETHER!

A distinguishing feature of this game is the ability to partner up with another player. By doing so you will be able to use each-other's abilities. However, who you are able to pair up with is outside of your control. It might seem dependent on luck at first, but with the advantages granted by this mechanic, and with some creative thinking, both sides can use this to their advantage.

HOW IT WORKS:
At any time you may use the Combi Catcher Too™ to net yourself a Combi (partner). It’s much more compact than its predecessor, but is very unpredictable; there's no telling who you'll end up with!

Catching a Combi:
- Instead of selecting a definite partner, you must select a number from 1 to 7. These numbers represent targets in range.

- If you wish to pair up with someone, simply send a PM saying “I want to pair up with target #.” If successful, you will have a new partner.

- If multiple people attempt to pair up with someone, the winning candidate will be picked randomly. Pairing requests will be handled on a first-come, first-serve basis for ordering purposes.

Your New Friend:
- When you pair with someone, your abilities cross over to each other; you gain any powers your partner has, and vice versa. You also learn about any items they may have. This can give you a distinct advantage, depending on who you pair with, and can also promote trade of information. I'll leave it up to you to figure out how.

- If you are killed while paired, your Combi dies as well, so be careful.

- If you wish to unpair with your Combi, you must do so at the cost of your night action. (For example if you are a guardian role, and you wish to break with your Combi, you must either break the pair or guard; you can't both break the pair and guard.)


Day Voting

Voting will work a bit differently due to the nature of the game. As mentioned before, there is no insta-lynch – any lynch takes place at the end of the day. You have three options:

- Vote to lynch a player. Plain old voting, the player that wins the vote is lynched.

-Vote: No Lynch. If a “No Lynch” wins the vote, the game will be sent to night phase without a lynch.

-Vote: There are no reds left. This is a special case. Every player in the game must vote for it to pass, and if it passes, the game ends immediately. If it passes and there are indeed no reds remaining, the town automatically wins. If it passes and there is even ONE red alive, the reds win. If it does not get a unanimous vote, it will be treated as a “No Lynch”.

Special Stages

Under certain circumstances, a Special Stage may be triggered. If the requirements for a Special Stage are met during a certain phase, the game will enter a Special Stage at the end of the phase.

A Special Stage is a sort of "twilight" phase. Discussion in the thread and on AIM may continue, but the flow of action will stop and statuses will not be updated until the Special Stage concludes.

WHAT HAPPENS:
Four people will be secretly picked to join a special stage and instructed of what to do. Only those selected may know about the special stages. Players may not disclose ANY information regarding the nature of special stages, including but not limited to:
-- What the Special Stage entails
-- How to get picked for a Special Stage
-- How to trigger a Special Stage
-- Any method of cheating or utilization of game-breaking tactics in a Special Stage

Any person who discloses this information will be subject to IMMEDIATE ejection from the game. No questions asked.

At the conclusion of a Special Stage, one player will triumph and gain a Chaos Ring. Special Stages will be the main method of acquiring Chaos Rings, but there is a possibility of getting one without entering a Special Stage. There may also be a possibilty of losing a Chaos Ring, so be vigilant!

Other Stuff

Phantom Policy:
I will be cracking down on inactivity, starting with a little gem of a policy proposed by Cyrenics. You are allowed one and ONLY one phantom. A second phantom will mean replacement, who inherits only one of the phantoms. If that person phantoms out as well, the role will be removed from the game.If no subs remain, you may accumulate 2 phantoms, but that is the absolute limit. If you accumulate a third phantom, you will be modkilled and probably game banned.

Even if you do follow these rules, you may still be replaced if the players and/or I have reasonable cause to believe that you are being inactive or not contributing properly to the game. You are expected to be involved in this game, not just post useless comments every couple of days. If you expect to be inactive for a certain time, tell me so.

Re: Twg - lxxxi host sign ups

hosts sign up here and we vote for what game we want to play. Once a game has been voted for, the selected host will make a player sign-up thread. You'll be signing up there and then.
