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: Please strike out old votes, when changing to another. This helps out the narrators when counting the votes. When I tally the votes, if you do not do this, I will count your first vote.
Autolynches: We will be autolynching players only if they do not point 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.
Have Fun: If you are not having fun, please let me know so we can change your mind.

I don't think I've ever in my entire life encountered a pony themed wolf game... Anyway seems like D&D ww is reaching it's ending fast so I might as well join this.
I guess I'll join. Though I probably can't RP much. :(
Prince Blueblood is not particularly OP in that once he's found out, either by a scry or by a failed lynch at him, his powers will be useless. Though it might result in hilarity: If the wolves have more than one fourth of the votes at that point and if Rarity is dead, he'll become like the Joker in that Batman game.

Does Rarity find a random amount of jewels in the night?
If she looks, she will have a % chance of finding 1 Jewel per night.

Not really. Murska has pointed out his flaw. The first time he pulls someone in front of him, he's found. It's up to the players what they want to do with him next.

This sounds interesting, but I have absolutely no idea how it is supposed to be played. I mean, I have a rough idea on what is supposed to happen (secret ballot on who to murder each day), but have no clue what the players do and don't know how this "disease" works out.
I don't suppose you have a link to some comprehensive instructions?
@Erikun take a look at WW Central. It should explain most things.
Much appreciated, that clears things up! Am I correct in that you don't choose which role you end up playing, but are assigned it by the person running the game? (Lex)
Just two questions. First, do the generic Town Ponies do anything beyond making votes throughout the day? And second, does team neutral get more information about their tasks?
Other than that, I'll go ahead and sign up!
EDIT: From the Ponythread:

So does Team Nightmare Moon know who they all are, and can strategize together through PMs?
