So in.

Does Rarity find a random amount of jewels in the night?

Does Trixie only scry 'twilight sparkle or not twilight sparkle' or actual roles?

If the beast ability goes off and murders Prince Blueblood, what happens?

Beast ability specifically takes out a member of Ponyville (the village), so that shouldn't be a problem (unless I'm mistaken).

Ponies you say, how in the world could I not?
Yes, the very idea is an interesting lot.

Could I, perhaps, book an empty slot?
And the team I'm on, will win at a trot!

Can I stop, my silly, little rhyming game?
No! For like other ponies, I'm not the same

Why isn't this in the mane thread?

Intriguing game, though Blueblood seems OP in every way.

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.

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?

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?

The roles are randomly assigned, using a random list generator.

Well, they can use logic or gut-feelings along with their votes. And some may find themselves diseased.

Yes, the "secrets" in the OP Role PMs will be explained in their Role PMs.

Yes, Team Nightmare Moon know each other. In fact, though Nightmare Moon is chosen at Random, she gets to choose her team.

And I'll be making a Quick Topic for both TNM and the CMC.
