Default Ye Olde West V – True Wit - Game Started.

Ye Olde West V – True Wit!
You must pay for everything in this world, one way and another. There is nothing free except for the grace of man.

Narrators - Supagoof and Zar Peter

The Outlaws
Spoiler


The Bandits
Spoiler


Town (Good Guys!)
Spoiler


The scenery for YOW5 will take place in Oklahoma, USA circa 1875.

Anyone can transfer credits via PM to the narrators. If the Outlaw kills or Bandits's take from a person exchanging money that night, the transfer fails (as if it never happened). When you transfer money, your name will be given to the person you transfer to. Both will receive the PM. example: Supagoof gives 5 coins to The Valient Turtle.

Everyone starts with coins (via PM and at random). Outlaws and Bandit’s are to be hung for killing or taking. When number of Bad Guys = 0, Townspeople win. Anytime someone dies, the money and stuff they are holding is lost to the auction.

The desert! (dessert) Each day, you can choose to go comb the desert for lost loot. The desert grid will have loot from killed persons placed at random amongst it, along with profits from the store. Each day you can publicly post which sector of the planet you want to search by posting the number in blue. First one to search the area shall receive what loot lies in it. The number of sectors in desert is determined by number of players in the game. Like 30 alive = 30 sectors....ANY TREASURE NOT FOUND WILL AUTOMATICALLY FLOW INTO THE BANDITS ACCOUNT. So, it pays to search!

General Store! A small store in which you can spend your credits on useful items. Things like maps to find where stuff is buried, knives and traps for hunting or to kill anyone who sneaks into your home, a scout to figure out someone’s role, and others to be placed into the store. To purchase an item simply PM a narrator. Prices subject to change daily upon availability of items. Gold spent at the store is paid out to villagers first, then remainder is buried lost in the dessert. (35 villagers & 50 gold spent in the store = 1 each villager and 15 buried in desert. Power roles do not receive pay.) Items in store may not be traded. *NOTE - Group Pricing is for Masons/Outlaws?Bandits - or basically the people who start the game knowing each other. This should help encourage more townspeople to buy and prevent the groups from grabbing all the good items.


GENERAL STORE Store Closed
Store Items are Here!- Please note that for this game, players will not be able to hold more then 2 items at a time.
Spoiler



Auction! Every time someone is killed, their stuff goes up for sale at the auction. Players can bid on the items publicly to obtain what the person had – including money and stuff bought at store. Highest bidder wins the auction. Auctions end and day’s end.

Days to last 48 hours. Nights to last 24 hours.

I'll post the starting number of total credits at the beginning of the game, for those who want to keep track. Credits from YOW4 will be carried over as Credit in YOW5. Those who won at the end of YOW4 will have 1 more credit given as reward for winning.

Starting Credits - $500 Bandits have $278/$500 in their Bandit Vault.

Sounds interesting, I'm in.

Edit: Since I guess I wasn't around for the previous game is there perhaps an early signing bonus?

I'm maxing my personal WW threshold, but an Old West game?!? SO IN.

Maybe you've heard of my RP character, the Arizona Ranger?

Here's some more inspiration.

Ah, the good old wild west. A lavish land of dirt, dirt, and whisky. Where the deer and the cantaloupe play. This... this was the land I was born to tame.

I'm in.
