Schoolhouse Werewolf [Day Two], Game Begins Post 38

[TFT]

I'm definitely good to run this by the 1st, so even if I still have a low amount by tuesday night, we're going. Any rule changes will be up by tomorrow, and I'm planning on finishing the role PMs and opening narration tomorrow. Still taking signups up and until late tuesday though, so anyone looking into this, feel free to join.

[TFT]

Well...
I'll go with the short version:

Work screwed me over on hours(good for the wallet, bad for plans like starting a WW game), so I don't have as much time I thought I would to get everything started tonight. It will be starting tomorrow, even if the PMs nor narration are as shiny as I want them to be. I would do it tonight but I literally just got back from work and I have to be getting to sleep soonish and the time I do have is being spent fulfilling a favor for a friend. Short version of changes, which will be reflected in the opening post later.

1. Rule change: Everyone starts with 30 pieces of paper. There may or may not be opportunities for more throughout the game.
2. Rule clarification: The night quicktopics cannot be shared or used after the night phase. They are to be used only by the people in the room they night they are in it.
3. Writing clarification(Mainly because I think pizza misunderstood part of the rules, and probably isn't the only one): For the majority of players, given a random note they will not be able to determine who's note it is. All they'll be given is a style. Writing styles aren't revealed upon death.
4. No mass claiming writing styles or single notes from each player to claim writing styles. It would ruin the fun. Likewise, there will probably be countermeasures in place to discourage such actions from being effective anyways...

Roles have not been assigned, so you have until tomorrow to sign up still.

[TFT]

Recruitment is now closed. I'm finishing up the role PMs, and will be sending them out shortly.

One final rule change for balancing purposes:

The first 3 notes directly passed will pass without issue, but every one after will have 20% increased chance of getting caught.

I'll be sending out the PMs, then starting the game, and ending with updating the opening post. By midnight tonight, all of those should occur.

Finally, to help guard against any mass claim attempts, this is the villager PM (Yes, there are villagers)

Spoiler: Villager PM

Show

You are a Former Student (Villager)!

You are just an average student. You do not have any special powers, butare allowed to pass notes during the day and each night you are allowed to choose a room to enter.

You win with the class (Town)

Updated:

I figured out I need to note one more thing:

Any groups that share a night action(The main one being the wolves night kill) have a QT that is explicitly for the action only. No discussion of strategy of any kind, including who to use the action on, is allowed in these QTs. I will be very strict on this, but I figured that people need to know in terms of game play.

Role PMS have been sent to all players except bladescape (Since all players got a PM, I figure it's fine to publicly shame him like this ). As soon as I can send him his PM, hopefully tonight(Cough), I'll post the opening narration and the game can begin.

3 notes by everyone or each individual persons first three notes?

[TFT]

3 notes by everyone or each individual persons first three notes?

Each person can send 3 notes during the day phase to anyone in the game without risking it being revealed. Each day, the number refreshes(So you can send up to 3 day 1, 3 day 2, etc.)

I also updated the post above Duck999 before I saw it, so I'd have a look at that as well.

Sorry for the spam, by the way.

[Penguinator]

It's been tomorrow for bladescape for quite a while already.

[bladescape]

Wait is my PM box full...

The new system doesn't tell me if it is.

[TFT]

And all role PM's are submitted.

Day One

Jonathon had to quiet the crowd after his last revelation.

I know, many of you might not believe me. If I hadn’t found the clues myself, I wouldn’t have known either.” He paused a moment to let out a cough. “But there was a random note I found the night of the murder that bugged me. So I looked into it. It led me down a breadcrumb trail that allowed me to figure out the murders.” Another pause, another cough. “And tonight, we take our -”

His coughing turned into a fit of constant hacks. It didn’t stop. The crowd could only watch while Jonathan attempted to speak, sputtering incoherent syllables between coughs. Students tried to help, but to no avail. Within moments, he was dead.

The group checked his body, and on it was a note. It read:

If you read this, I’m most likely dead. I knew that the killers were onto me, which is why I wanted to convince the only people who would believe me about the killers. No one I contacted did. If you did not believe me before, my death should be the convincing argument. Hopefully, I have told you who the killers are and can apprehend them. If not, I hope what I said was enough for you to find them.

-Jonathan

The group stood in silence for a moment.

A subdued voice could be heard from the group. “We can’t let these killers escape.”

This led to a flurry of reactions:
“What if we’re next.”

"Who could do this?

“I didn’t sign up for this.”

What are we going to do?

“How could they do that?”

I hope I'm not next...

A voice rose above the others, however. “We need to stay calm. Here’s what we do: Go into lockdown. No one leaves until we find the killers.

The class agreed. They would find the killers, or they would die trying.

Jonathan(TFT) has been killed. He was the Narrator.

Narrator's note: Jonathan isn't my actual name, for the record.

Day One begins now and ends 7/6/14 at 11:59 PM PDT.

Internet Flea, because he's as close to #17 as I can get in a 16 player game.

[Ionbound]

Bladescape. I don't trust him, and I likely never will.

[Internet Flea]

No no, when there aren't 17 players you loop back around, so Count Dingdong is 17th.

Nonono, banjo is right, for the wrong reasons. TFT died in the opening narration so clearly he is a player, and player 1 since he was the first, so IF would be the 17th.

no no no no, see, when you include narrators you count with whole numbers, so you start at player zero.

Although then TFT becomes 17th when you loop around.

[TFT]

Reminder: Direct PMs are not allowed, and any private communication between players must be done with notes. I've heard of a couple violations of this rule already, but looking into them it wasn't substantial enough to affect the game. Just keep that rule in mind, and report any other violations to me. Thank you.

[Penguinator]

That BasketofPuppies seems like a rule-breaker.

I'm curious as to who the hell would send information to someone they couldn't verify at this stage.

That's either a really stupid villager or a really hopeful wolf.

Unless Masons/Wolves don't get a QT, or something like that.

[Duck999]

Well, TFT did say something about QTs for a group with an action can't be used for discussion, only for voting who to use the action on. Go back a couple posts and you will find his explanation of it.

[Penguinator]

Either way, the whole "No PM" thing was pretty clear in the rules. Or so I thought.

[Internet Flea]

Unless Masons/Wolves don't get a QT, or something like that.

I asked about team QTs and was informed there was no discussion allowed in them at any time. Wolves and Masons know each other but have to scheme with notes.

And information would be substantial. It was probably just a "so what do you think" thing.

I've been at RTX today. My phone has been dead since like 2:30. How could I have broken a rule if I couldn't get on the site?

[TFT]

One of you finds a note on the floor. It reads:

FEAR THE CATERPILLAR!

I... was kidding?

Joke votes aren't helpful! Sit up straight, pay attention! Don't make me send you to detention, etc.

[Duck999]

Wow.
Clearly the note system is very useful for us. I mean, look how well we are using it.

[Penguinator]

Joke votes aren't helpful! Sit up straight, pay attention! Don't make me send you to detention, etc.

And mine is worth mentioning when three out of four votes are joke votes?

[Bunny of Faith]

Askthepizzaguy! Don't be a teacher's pet!

[Askthepizzaguy]

Askthepizzaguy! Don't be a teacher's pet!

Ha! That's pretty good, actually.

[PirateMonk]

Murska seems highly suspicious.

[Aventine]

Random vote for PirateMonk.

[Count Dingdong]

Have I voted? No? Well then. Internet Flea to finally get a second point on someone. Oh, and revenge.

[Duck999]

Uhhhh...
Random vote on FD
