Breaking the 4th Wall: WW [Finished]
Breaking the 4th Wall
Disclaimer: The following is entirely a work of fiction. None of the characters mentioned participated in events resembling those recounted here.
The following are excepts taken from the Time magazine Interview “Techno Terrorism: Modern Viral Warfare”. The interview was conducted by Mr T. Durden.
Mr T. Durden[TD]: Good morning Mark. Thanks for joining us tonight, We’ve been wanting to get a few words with you since it happened.
Mark Smith[MS]: *Laughs* Good morning. It’s no trouble, I’ve just been a little busy recently. What with Christmas and then all this happening. I’ve had a few things to set straight. I do apologise.
TD: I know the feeling! You have to admit the story when told beggars belief.
MS: I know. So what can I tell you about it?
TD: Well, everything to be honest! I can’t promise some sections won’t be edited out of the final piece but the meaning shall not be changed and you will have veto power on anything before it goes to print.
MS: Fair enough.
TD: Ok. Then for the benefit of our readers – Mark. What do you do?
MS: Oh nothing really. In the real world I manage a nightclub but that’s largely irrelevant. I post at the forums in question because I’m a fan of an online webcomic called “Order of the Stick”.
TD: You and many others [Editor’s note – around 48000 at time of printing]. So what exactly happened?
MS: *Snorts* Well it started just around the end of January this year…

Role Descriptions
Spoiler
Responsible Users
SpoilerUsers: You are a loyal forum user. You only want to relax and commune with fellow posters. Your job is to stay alive and hunt out the Trolls. (Villager)
Old Timers: You’ve been around the forums for a long time and know each other. It’s your job to protect your fellow Old Timer(s) and protect the forum you love by rooting out the Trolls. There will always be a minimum of 2 Old Timers in a group. The Old Timers are told each other’s identities. (Mason)
Admin: You have the power to look into a forum members history and profile. Each night phase, you may PM the Narrator the name of one player to investigate. When you select a player, the answer given to you will be User, Script Kiddy, or Troll. Admins see the 1337 H4><02 as a Troll. (Seer)
American Mod: You wield the Ban-Hammer with poise and guile. Each night you may choose someone to ban. This will keep them safe the following day, that person cannot be Ejected. (Day-Baner)
Script Kiddy: A guy you met online has given you a piece of code to give you Admin powers in any forum you like. You like this one. You think you are the Admin. You are told that you are the Admin. With a Script Kiddy nightly investigation, you get a random chance as to what you see. When you examine the Admin, you will always see the Script Kiddy, and vice versa. (Fool)
English Mod: You are awake when the majority of the forum population is asleep. You also wield the Ban-Hammer…possibly with even greater poise and guile since you are British. Each night you may ban someone to keep them safe from the Trolls’ attentions. (Baner)
Trolls
SpoilerTroll: You are using a program that allows you to post on infected forums as if you were a registered member. Each night phase you choose among yourselves who you want to target and send this in to the narrator. That night you annoy that user so much they up and quit the forums. (wolf)
1337 H4><02: You wrote the program to allow you and your band of trolls to hijack user accounts on online forums. You wrote in a backdoor that gives you greater powers (Equivalent to that of an Admin) however a small bug stops you from knowing your fellow trolls’ identities. You get more precise results than the Admin (Specific role rather than just User, Script Kiddy, or Troll). (Devil)
Vengeful Troll: You have added a little code of your own to the hackers program. When you are ejected, one of the people who voted for you will also be ejected. This player is randomly selected. (Beast)
Victory Conditions:
For Responsible Users to win, the Users must eject all of the Trolls.
For Trolls to win, they must simply reduce the number of Users (Including special roles) to equal their current numbers.

Re: Breaking the 4th Wall: WW [Recruiting]
Oh it should. It should more or less play like classic. Too many confusing rules make logic next to impossible sometimes and that's the thing that makes these games fun (IMO).
Or did you mean there had been a "breaking the 4th wall" styled game before? If so I do apologise to whoever it's itellectual owner is. I didn't mean to steal your work.

Re: Breaking the 4th Wall: WW [Recruiting]
More or less what it sayd on the tin. Getting everyone to fess up to a role and then trying to catch people out. Someone does it via PM and trys to catch doubles out.
Usually wouldn't work so well in a game like this anyway as all wolves would claim villager. The restriction is more for games like USB where everyone has a defferent role but, for reasons you'll see, it could be used in this game quite easily. Hence the ruling.
EDIT
Afraid of Internet Flea aye? I thought he went alphabetically anywayLast edited by Qwaz; 2011-01-09 at 12:23 PM.

Re: Breaking the 4th Wall: WW [Recruiting]
In, randomly. I should start getting in character.
If I creep into your house in the dead of night and strangle you while you sleep, you probably messed up your grammar.
I'm always extremely careful to hedge myself against absolute statements.
