Open 23 - Masons and Monks (GAME OVER) - before 458

JDodge · Post Post #0 (isolation #0) » Tue Jun 05, 2007 12:16 am

Something strange has been happening in a small town on the border between Italy and Switzerland; the once-proud village of nearly 300 has dwindled down to a meager 12. Roughly 250 left the town; the other 38, brutally murdered. Some shot through the chest with a single bullet, others viciously mauled as if by some wild animal. The other 12, however, have gathered to find the murderers, by lynching people one-by-one in broad daylight.

Hey, at least they're trying to do

something

RULES AND ROLES (Stolen from Open 12 and modified slightly)

Rules

1.) This game is a night start. Night 0 will begin as soon as everybody has confirmed via PM.
2.) During the day you can vote for a player that you think should be lynched. Votes must be in the form

Vote: Player

otherwise they won't be counted. It is necessary for players to unvote before switching their votes.
3.) When a player reaches a majority of votes, they are lynched. I will reveal their role, and the game will move into night. Players can still talk during twilight.
4.) If discussion is lagging or the day is dragging, I may set a deadline. Only half the normal number of votes will be needed to lynch someone at deadline.
5.) No talking to other players, dead or alive, outside of the thread, unless your role permits it.
6.) Once dead, you stop posting. A bah post is fine though.
7.) If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.
8.) Try to post at least once every 48 hours. Treat the game as a committment. If you go inactive, you will be replaced.
9.) I'll try to post votecounts every page. Feel free to ask for a votecount at any time. This being my first time modding, I may make mistakes. Point them out at your whim.
10.) Avoid excessive profanity, flaming etc.
11.) Have fun!
12.) The first cross kill each way (Mafia-Werewolf and Werewolf-Mafia) is negated.

JDodge · Post Post #5 (isolation #5) » Fri Jun 08, 2007 6:48 am

You awake to find that there are now only 10 people left in this humble town.

You search Yosarian2's house, finding that he has been shot. From his possessions, you find that he was just a townie.

Next, JordanA24's house; all you find there is blood spattered all over the house, and a single arm left lying in the hall. You find that he was also a townie.

With 10 alive, it is 6 to lynch.

It was by far a good news, bad news night in the fair little town.

The good news being that 8 of you are still alive!

The bad news being that Adel is dead. Or, at least, what's LEFT of Adel, as you find his remains ripped to bits, with a bullet hole through his skull.

Adel,

townie

, shot and eaten N1.

It is now Day 2, with 8 alive, it's 5 to lynch.

He is the major focus of my suspicions at the moment, and having that role inactive... is annoying.

It was another deadly night in the fair little town. Two of the citizens were missing the following morning.

You find that both Stewie, who had been fatally shot, and The Greg, who had been ripped to bits, were also the monks that inhabited the monastery on the outskirts of town.

Stewie,

monk

, shot N2
The Greg,

monk

, eaten N2

With 5 alive, it's 3 to lynch.

End-of-Game Vote Count:

LSU Tiger Josh - 3 (Sir Tornado, dylan41985, Sweenytodd)
Sir Tornado - 1 (LSU Tiger Josh)

Not Voting - 1 (Guardian)

In the heat of the day's discussion, and after realizing the hopelessness of the situation, Sweenytodd decides to send LSU Tiger Josh,

Mafia

, to the gallows.

And with that, Sir Tornado,

werewolf

and dylan41985,

werewolf-mason

each pull out a knife and stab Guardian,

mafia

, and Sweenytodd,

mason

.

Werewolves win.

(Before anyone asks why this is the end, it is because with the immunity from one cross-kill, there was no way anyone besides the werewolves could win.)

I think it's fairly obvious who killed who.

Does this setup finish always finish this soon? I remember reading another Mason and Monks (abandoned) which lasted for 8 or 9 pages too...

The town seemed to rush into lynches a bit more than in that one. ojpower's lynch wasn't even 1 page if I remember correctly.

Sir Tornado wrote:The Greg, had Sweenytodd forced a no-lynch, the game would have been draged to a deadline, because the wolves would not have voted for a no-lynch. We had voted LSU at the very start of the day, so at deadline, being the oldest last vote, LSU would have been eliminated. There would not have been any NKs at night because of the immunity to Night kills. So, the next day, you would have 2 werewolves, 1 mafia and 1 mason. A WW win was inevitable unless Sweenytodd voted for a werewolf lynch.

Actually, the werewolves would've won anyways.

Kill Sweeny (no immunity) and then you have a 2-1 majority over the other scumgroup going into the next day.

Huh? There were no cross kills yet, so if there was no lynch then they would have targeted each other, you'd be back with 5 people the next day, another no lynch, and then the crosskilling would begin.

Because I'm not

thinking

about things before talking about them.

They wouldn't, but the vote would be tied 2-2, with three to lynch. If a deadline comes into effect, then half the votes are needed... but since it's 2-2, there's two people, scum, who have enough for a lynch. I'm not sure if that would get both lynched, or neither, but there's really no reason to give the lynch to one team over the other.
I thought in such a case, the person on whom the final vote which has been cast the earliest goes to the gallows... right?

I forgot to put something in the rules about that, but yes, I would've done that most likely.

Although since I dislike deadlines, I don't think that would've been too much of an issue anyways.
