Alright, I will use this thread to handle who is going to sign up for this and such, it's easier that way. Just letting it out, so ask any questions here and not in the thread I would eventually end up making.
Scum and Villainy
Welcome to scum and villainy everyone. Below are the rules, and this thread is where people signing up will post, and where questions will be asked.
A very short summary of the rules is provided at the bottom of the thread if you can't be bothered reading this wall.
Night-time
This is where the murderers or assassins (whatever, bad guys anyway) will be working. This is not actually handled within the thread, but through PMs and etc. Night is in other words when 'round X' ends.
I personally will gather up who is to be killed, or not to be killed and then post it in the thread. This starts the next round (or day as it will be in the game-thread)
Day-time
This is where you are all active and talk about what happened Discuss what happened the previous night and try to figure out who the assassins are. Remember, the assassins are blended in to the society and thus will partake in the discussions and can try to put blame on other people or prove their innocence if accused, as anyone accused will try to do.
Executing
Every day you are allowed to execute one person. This is the people’s somewhat brutal way of trying to find and remove the assassin. You vote in order to kill someone. A simple majority wins this (50% of people left or the highest voted if abstain is in the minority), and as night falls the chosen person is executed thus if they are an assassin they will take no further part in the killings or discussions. I may or may not reveal the identity of the person, whether they were innocent or not, I may just give a clue or two. Obviously if there are no assassins left no one will be murdered at night and the game will be over so it will be revealed.
The only way I will accept a vote is in this form:
Vote: username
Note that you do NOT have to execute anyone. Especially in the first day or two, there will be little information so you may choose not to vote to kill someone if you want. You should mention that you are abstaining with an abstain vote so I know when everyone has put their voice out and it is safe to go to night. Eg. Vote: Abstain
Out of Character posting
If you want to discuss something out of character then state OOC before your information. And the most important rule: HAVE FUN!
Extras
In the game you will find 4 different kinds of players, depending on the amount of players signing up. They are as follow, in order of importance.
-Civilian; This is you normal people that are trying to figure out who is an assassin and who's not.
-Assassin; the bad guy(s) that are out to kill you all.
-Doctor; This is a civilian that has the right to, via PMing me can prevent a player from being killed, should they be the target of an assassin. It does not stop anyone from being executed however.
-Officer; A civilian that has knowledge of all the bad things in the world, such as knowing that you are an assassin. The player that is an officer can ask me via PM what one player's role is once a day. They may however not share this information.
Short Summary
When I say it is night, assassins will PM me with their target. After that, it will be day and the dead person will be shown, during day people will discuss who they think it is and vote to execute a suspect to try to stop the murders. The game ends when either the innocents are all dead, or the assassins are all dead.
When will this start?
I want to have around 10 people playing this, it is more interesting and generally just a lot more fun that way.
If you have anyone you know that could join, invite them! The more the merrier.
The signups are as follow:
