Convoy VI: Run Bandit, Run
Welcome to the sign-up thread for Convoy VI: Run Bandit, Run. This is the tale of a legend in the South, they call The Bandit. Legend has it that he was able to smuggle 400 cases of Coors from Texarkana, Texas to Atlanta, Georgia in only 28 hours. They even made a movie about it!
But this hears the real story behind the myth. Follow along as we find out what really happened.
Rules
SpoilerLex-Kat's Typical Rules
NO 25% majority rule: That's right, for this one game, I'm eliminating the 25% rule. Let's see how it works out.
Striking Through Votes, if you want: Please strike out old votes. But if you do not do this, I will count your last vote.
End of Day Ties for lynching: The first to reach the most votes is lynched. The other gets to wipe the sweat from their brow.
Autolynches: We will be autolynching players only if they do not post for 3 days straight. Of course, if you let me know that you will be gone for more than a week, we will give you a pass.
Helgraf's Scry Interference: If two characters with a scry ability look at the same player, both will get "Interference" as a result.
FC's Rule of Narrator Invocation: If you claim that the Narrator made a mistake, and the Narrator is asked about it, the Narrator will answer honestly. So don't use the Narrator's name in vain.
Role Reveal Upon Death: Roles are revealed upon Death, except...
Seer/Fool Death: When the first Seer/Fool dies, the role reveal will be as Seer/Fool. When the second dies, both of their true roles will be revealed.
Have Fun: If you are not having fun, please let me know so we can change your mind.
Roles
SpoilerTruckers
SpoilerThe Bandit - (Baner) The Bandit is blocking for Cledus "Snowman" Snow, with his brand new 1977 Pontiac Trans-Am. Each night, he can try to keep Justice and his Smokeys away from his cargo, and also his co-conspirators.
Sugar Bear, Little Beaver, Mr. B, and Hot Pants - (Masons) Hidden among the civilians, these Smokey detectors have allied themselves with the Bandit, to help him get a clear run to wherever he's going.
Carrie, a.k.a. "Frog" - (Seer) The Bandit's latest "friend". She hopped into his car at the beginning of the run, and knows what Buford T. Justice and his son, Junior look like. (Though she doesn't just "see" them, for game purposes.)
Lisette Hocheiser - (Fool) What would the the world of Convoy be without Micro-Bus hippies? Some say easier. Lisette is higher than a kite at midnight. And she thinks she can see what she actually can't see. (She's always wrong, btw.)
The Snowman/Truckers - (Villagers) These are your basic, run-of-the-mill truckers, who are pretending to be The Snowman. Except one of them is the legitimate Snowman.
Smokeys
SpoilerSheriff Buford T. Justice - (Alpha Smokey) His idiot son's bride just ran off with a Sumbitch, and he's determined to get him. Needs 50% of the Actual vote to be lynched.
Junior Justice - (Idiot Day-Baner) Can only protect others, never himself. Not even if he's the last Smokey standing.
Undercover Trucker - (Devil) A bear in trucker's clothing. He's trying to ferret out the information, and report back to the Sheriff. Does not start out with the Smokeys.
Deputies Enos Strate and Cletus Hogg- Deputies from Georgia, helping out in pursuit of the Bandit.
Neutrals
SpoilerHooper - ??
The game will start with the first 20 players. After that, any who join as Auto-Lynch replacements can will be introduced into the game every fourth day, whether there is an Auto-Lynch or not. And just like in the original, the player decides which team he wishes to join.
Stolen from the original Convoy. with permission, of course.
Game starts if/when we get 20 players.

Re: Lexi's Name That Game Werewolf
Convoy seems interesting. Though having no idea how many people are floating around, I have no idea if more than two teams is a thing we can feasibly do.

Re: Lexi's Name That Game Werewolf
I'm in! Convoy looks fun to me, although I do agree that the teams might need some tweaking for low player number.

Re: Lexi's Name That Game Werewolf
Sorry for the slowness in coming in Lex, I noticed the thread but got a little busy. As much as I love the idea of Convoy and its awesome ridiculousness, I doubt we will have enough people to pull it off so if that is not possible than assassins would be my second choice.

Re: Lexi's Name That Game Werewolf
Perhaps you should try PMing any of the people who have recently played WW or BatHotH in the recent past and asking them to join. I got like five people to come to my game just a few months ago by doing that.

Waiting for a new load to drive to DC and nothing better to do, so following the Convoy it is!
A neutron walks into a bar and says, “How much for a beer?” The bartender says, “For you? No charge.”

Re: Convoy VI: Run Bandit, Run
I see we're only starting if we get 20 players. Since we didn't get that many for the last few werewolf games here... can we each play two characters if we only get around 10? If I wind up on both sides I promise I won't help myself.

Re: Convoy VI: Run Bandit, Run
I know I said I was in before, but now that we have confirmed the game type, I figured I would re-confirm. Also, the idea of each person trying to run two characters is rather interesting...

Re: Convoy VI: Run Bandit, Run
Handle: The Rabid Goat
Cargo: Its either goats, rabbies vaccines, both or the Crown Jewels of England. Either way, he is not telling anyone what he is actually carrying (but everyone can tell it at least includes goats by the noise the truck makes).
Vehicle: A trailer that has been heavily modified so that the housing part is a living quarter for the goats. The truck has been suited with stolen pieces of armored cars which have been clumsily attached to the exterior. Its an amazement this thing can drive considering the complete unbalance of it really.-
