No uncloaking, Phantom, dear. Just so that's perfectly clear.

I'll second his question though.

Just so we're perfrectly clear: Lovers are the only ones who are NOT allowed to reveal their true role (at least that's all I can see after being awake for about five minutes

). False revealments will be allowed....maybe...I don't know right at this current moment.

ALSO. I totally forgot about this earlier. THERE WILL BE NO DOUBLE LYNCHES WHATSOEVER. If there is a tie, it will be the last person to have recieved the vote (and yes, I will accept a vote at the DL).

So everyone can reveal aside from the lovers? All right then- supposing on the first day I pipe up and say, "Everyone reveal who you are." Everyone aside from the lovers reveals. Bang, we instantly know who three wolves and their three lovers are, not to mention that Ares would have no choice but to reveal as a role filled by someone else, meaning that we would have our choice in Ares narrowed down to two individuals.

The only way to avoid this would be for all three lover-wolves and their lovers to reveal as other roles, but again that would still narrow our choices down considerably, and perhaps based upon gender and logical pairings etc we could make a better than 50/50 guess at who was lying.

And of course everyone with an uncontested role would be entirely trusted at that point, and know better how to use their gifts. Is my scenario ignoring some obvious fact? I haven't had very much time to examine the mechanics or village make-up, so possibly I'm way off base?

satansaloser2005 · 07-24-2010, 12:51 PM

Yup, Phantom's back.

Glirdan · 07-24-2010, 02:21 PM

He definitely is....

In other words, I'm not even going to touch that one.

EDIT: Group consensus say 2am EST, so that is what it shall be!

That means if there are any last minute singups, do it now as you have 9 hours before opening narration goes up and Night 1 begins!

By true role do you mean Lover, or does it also include Wolf if they are one?

Lover and Wolf. And as phantom so nicely put it, obviously this SHOULD apply to everyone. However, if someone reveals or false reveals, I'm not stopping it. Makes it more fun!

EDIT: Also forgot to mention the, Sherrif's are also NOT ALLOWED to reveal. Okay, I think we're covered

Glirdan · 07-24-2010, 04:53 PM

Just a quick note:

I will be sending you your roles within the next few hours so keep an eye out and please keep your inbox empty! So, when I said 2am for signups, I lied. Oops, I forgot that I had to send you all your roles.

Second note, even though you are all veterans, I'll make a reminder: please put yourself to invisible between now and the next 7 hours.

Third note: I may be a TEENSY bit late with the opening narrations. However, seeing as it IS Night 1 and there will be no deaths, I will NOT extend the Night 1.

Now, due to the fact that I will be sending you your roles....

THIS THREAD IS NOW OFFICIALLY CLOSED FOR SIGNUPS

This thread will now only be used for those playing in the game and myself. Please notify everyone here of any absenteeism and RL type discussions. Also, if you need any clarification on any roles or rules or have any questions, please SEND ME A MESSAGE. Due to the fact that everyone has a role in this game, I would like to make things less obvious for people when there are role clarifications (also thus eliminating a bit of meta-reasoning from the game). Good luck to all players!

Glirdan · 07-24-2010, 06:38 PM

Roles have just been randomly selected and I will be sending them out to you shortly.

Glirdan · 07-24-2010, 06:50 PM

Please respond once you have received your role.

Oh, and I'm changing the Unicorn role slightly as well.

Really? Really?

Sorryyyyyyy! There was an impromptu Skype session with the sis involved right before I passed the heck out considerably before DL.
