Knights of the Elliptical Table (WW Game) (Game Over)

[smashbro]

Knights of the Elliptical Table

Welcome, distinguished Knights of the Elliptical Table! You have been called to meet and advise Lord smashbro, who will arrive in just a few days time. However, you hear rumors that some of your order have been bribed by a rival Lord, and are out to kill not only your Lord, but his Knights as well...

Roles:

Loyal Knights: Lynch the evil knights to ensure your Lord will not arrive to hostile forces.

Spoiler

Show

Knight of the Elliptical Table - regular townie, your job is to find the betraying knights.

Devout Paladin - You have gained magical power, which you may focus on one person for the night. That person will gain great resilience, and a blow that would normally kill the knight will do little to harm him or her.

Bribed Knights: How dare you betray your Lord smashbro?!? You seem to want to kill all of the Loyal Knights, so that you may slay me when I arrive.

Spoiler

Show

Betraying Knight - a knight who has decided (for money or power) to destroy the other Knights of the Elliptical Table.

[usourselves&we]

It is lucky we found this not too long ago. we also listened to it over and over, and got lost watching other Horrible Histories stuff. . .

[bladescape]

&we, that song is brilliant. I've never run into these guys before. *Hunts youtube for Horrible Histories videos.*

On the side note, this is totally not my name I'm slipping into a slot here.

[smashbro]

So, I take it both of you would like to join?


Also, if you do join, you shall be knighted Sir ______ the _____, feel free to choose the description. Or Lady, if you are indeed a lady.

[Amidus Drexel]

I'll play.

My Knight shall be named Sir Day, the Ambiguously Illuminated.

[Elemental]

I, Sir Elemental the Grey, am ready and willing to advise Lord Smashbro.

[usourselves&we]

Sirs Undwir The Plenty, should do alright. Knighted thus by way of over-generosity to all peoples, he doesn't know all that much German, closer to none actually.

[onionbreath]

This sounds fun.
Sir Onion of Halitosis reporting for duty

[Internet Flea]

Was trying to stay out of these for a while, but a moniker is just too tempting.

Sir Flea the Frenetic.

[Zjoot]

Sir Zjoot the Zesty at your service, my liege.

[HedgehogRanger]

I shall join as Sir Hedgehog the Defenestrator

[Hattish Thing]

I have arrived, all bow to Sir Hatter the Mad!

[bladescape]

I shall be Sir Blade the Doubted.

[Zar Peter]

Sir Peter, the slightly confused.
I think I sign up. Maybe. If I find my pen.

[smashbro]

k, so we have room for 2 more, and plenty of time, so if you know anyone else who wants to play, feel free to invite them. I think I'll start it next Monday. Let's see, there's a couple things I should probably go over...

• You need a majority to lynch, and if the day ends before a majority is reached, then whoever has the most votes will be lynched.
• If there is a tie, whoever got the votes first is lynched.
• 48 hour days, 24 hour nights
• We'll do day start.
• I live on the east coast, so when I say the day will end at whatever time, it's EST. If you want me to change it to your time zone too, let me know.

I know most of it is on the main thread, but just wanted make sure it was here too... anything I missed, or you guys need to know?

[Szilard]

In as Sir Szilard the Shiny.

[Internet Flea]

[*]You need a majority to lynch, and if the say ends before a majority is reached, then whoever has the most votes will be lynched.

So a majority ends the day early?

[smashbro]

So a majority ends the day early?

What do you guys want to do? Usually I would say yeah, but the Day period only lasts 48 hours, so I also want to let you guys use all of it.

So right now, I'm gonna say no, unless everyone wants it to.

[Zar Peter]

I live on the east coast, so when I say the day will end at whatever time, it's EST. If you want me to change it to your time zone too, let me know.

It would be really cool if you could write something like: Day ends on Sunday, 15.05.13, 16:00 EST, that's in about 48 hours from now on. That would be convinient for every time zone.

Of course you could write it in your weird american date order, but, well... did I tell you the story where the american policeman didn't believe my brother that he was 21 because in his driving licence there stood born on 15.06.1970? Well, my brother conviced him that even in europe there is no 15th month.

[Elemental]

Just tell us the number of hours until the day ends as well. Saves on the maths.

[smashbro]

Alrighty, can do. I'll post both the end time in EST and how many hours.

[Lex-Kat]

I think they should extend it out to fifteen months, reduce the seasons to only Winter, Spring, and Summer (eliminating Fall/Autumn), give ten months 24 days, and five months 25. One of the months with 24 days will get a 25th every four years. It will, of course, still be February.

Oh, and the way to list the date should definitely be day, month, year. I personally always write in the first three letters of the month, as to not confuse my co-workers (ex: Today is 12May13).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'll still co-narrate, if you'd like. Or, I could join.

Either way, I am Lady Lexington the Kat.

[smashbro]

Whichever you would prefer Lex, doesn't matter to me. I'll put you in as a player unless you say otherwise by tonight.


Role PMs will go out later tonight (like, 6 to 8 hours from now), and I'll get everything else I need together then.

[smashbro]

Day 1 has started

Day 1 start is Sunday, 12th of May 2013, 23:50 EST





The Knights of the Elliptical Table gather around their non circular table to discuss the idea that not all of them have stayed true to their lord smashbro. The Knights glare at each other, wonder who could have dared betray such a perfect (and humble) lord.






Day 1 ends Tuesday, 14th of May 2013, 23:50 EST

48 hours remain

On a side note, I'll keep track of current votes in the first post, and update it when I come online. There'll be a time when I last updated it, too.

[Hattish Thing]

Hm... Well, let's look at the competition here.

I hereby elect that we of The King's Men hereby execute Sir Onion due to the sheer stench of him.

[bladescape]

((Are we using red or bold this game? I'm always so mixed on that. So I shall just do bold red.))

Sir Blade, the Doubted, sat upon his usual chair to the side, and pushed back from the table. Everyone knew that this night liked seclusion, and that he rarely took part in active discussion, but today was far different.

Today he leaned forwards, and speaking in a clear voice, he asked, "Sir Day, I hear you were talking with some people of unknown repute. Could you explain yourself?"

[usourselves&we]

Sir Elemental, because Sir Dark is not here.
the best way to sort that out would be to use all the colors, but we are too lazy for that. though now that we think about it using all the colors to point at Elemental would have a nice touch to it, still too lazy to do that.

[Lex-Kat]

Lady Lexington, the only Lady among the Elliptical Knights, looks around at her fellows knights confused. Sir Zjoot, what in all that is good and holy is going on here?

[Elemental]

The valiant knight, Sir Elemental, tired from his recent slaying of the great dragon Terrance, Scourge of the Northern Wastes, interrupted his nap to respond to recent accusations from the occasionally slanderous Undwir, an otherwise noble and courageous knight.
"You wound me Sirs Undwir. Never would I stoop to such a suspicious level of deceit as our dear brother in arms Sir Dark the Super, who is as we all know, preoccupied with a most important quest in foreign lands.
"By all that is righteous and good, I insist that you reconsider your accusation and instead seek to investigate Sir Szilard. It is my thought that an investigation into his financial affairs would be most illuminating."
Finally waking up fully, Elemental realised that Lord Smashbro had not yet arrived.
"Oh right, I can stop the overly formal language.
"Sir Szilard, just how are you so fabulously wealthy? We all know that the annuity we receive from our lord isn't that great. I had to slay two dragons and defeat an evil wizard just to get time off to go on pilgrimage!"

[Internet Flea]

Sir Flea shifts his gaze across the room, landing on Sir Zar who was looking slightly confused.

What's wrong, Sir Zar? Trouble concentrating? Thinking too much, perhaps? Thinking of betrayal of your brethren? Have your schemes drawn your attention away from us?
