The Curse of the Deathly Hallows **GAME OVER NANE06 WINS!**
 

The Game has BEGUN! All PM's have been sent. You are all standing in the lobby where the stairs to the second floor are, you must cross through the lobby to change floors, erach floor of the motel 6 is a single straight hallway with odd rooms on the left and even rooms on the right in sequential order from #01 (closest) to #25 (farthest away) The hallways are well lit and anyone can be seen entering any given room.

Each Day/Night ( 1 per game cycle) you may choose to search a room. Anything found is usable immediately.

Each night you must choose a room to sleep/stay in and you must tell me in a pm if you intend to sleep or stay awake (extended periods without sleep will affect your performance and results!)

As always PM me with any questions you don't want known to the general public.

Hello! my name is Rendaro Monmoya, you have all been accused of theft, prepare to die!

Wisked away by magical means unknown to you. You find yourself in a motel6 just outside of Waukesha, Wisconsin. The date is irrelevant.

What IS relevant is that you have all been accused of stealing the Deathly hallows. By whom is again, irrelevant. The fact is there was enough evidence to require further investigation.

You will stay in this location, locked down by powerful magic until the situation, and the Hallows are settled.

You are, who you are. Nothing more, nothing less. You might all be muggles of ill repute, greatly respected or neither. You might also be powerful wizards and witches. Who knows?

The game begins when you receive your PM, I will post deadlines as needed to further our investigation.

The Deathly Hallows are all within the game as follows:

The Wand: Allows a single spell to be cast on any given night. Anything from the Harry potter universe that is a specifically stated spell and effect, is allowed.

The Stone: Gives protection from death (IE an attack or spell casting that would kill the holder, will fail so long as the target holds the stone)

The Cloak: Makes the wearer invisible. Details and specifics will be in your PM

The object: Collect them all and become the Master of Death itself.

There may be other random objects in the game as well. The rooms of the hotel are numbered 101-125 and 201-225. yes floors matter.

Soooooo... starting Monday?

Are we sure all the people copied from the other game still want in? Anybody else to invite?

I'm sending updates/invites tonight

JAG and Narcizo and hoops and Lathum need to get their butts in here

Waukesha, WI... I remember the good ole' days back in the late 90's. We did work on the Les Paul museum at the Waukesha Historical Museum. The Wizard of Waukesha!

Not worth much, but I'll assume we got to this Motel 6 first!

Aaaaannnnnd I totally forgot to send the PM's.... LOL On it now! Sorry!

Okay, this is wild. I'm looking at the new rule additions and now realizing this is not purely a Werewolf game, more like a dungeon crawl.

Render, do we state our moves publicly in channel or in a PM?

Checking in... vanilla.... or not?

Say my name... or don't dare?

In a house... or not?

Anyway, checking in...

Let the fun start! This is definitely a bit unusual. It appears that we can search each day within the thread and then send a PM each night for actions overnight. My guess is that we will want to know as much about the items in all of the rooms as possible.

Hmm. Nothing about roles. Are we all vanilla?

What are the mechanics of search/stay orders?

Is everyone permitted/required to provide them? (Given the suggested need for sleep, I would assume so.)

Are these orders submitted publicly or privately?

Are movements published, and when?

Sleep is a dynamic that we can certainly investigate N1. Maybe have a certain amount of people stay awake and then test out staying awake multiple nights once we learn more? Should we have half of us search the rooms?

It seems that collectively, from the rules, we need to determine the location of the Hallows, so a group strategy to search the rooms makes sense. To answer Timmae's suggestion, I think that we can all search every day, and then all choose to sleep or stay awake, so we shouldn't need to limit searching.

Yep, all search. For some reason I tied the two actions together in my mind. We'll want to clear the rooms in an orderly way I think. Maybe start searching down on the 1st floor rooms 101 through 109? Then no one goes in those rooms to sleep. That way we can get as many items as possible and start eliminating rooms. We can see who goes in what room so we should be able to post a person on each floor as a look out.

2 Groups? Muggles and wizards/witches? There are 3 items we know of. Cloak is interesting because that person can leave their room (or switch rooms?) without anyone knowing. So crazy.

Checking in. Won’t have a chance to look at this in any detail until after work.

Putting in orders to test my understanding of how this all works...

would it be better to all sleep in the same room or different rooms... being in all different rooms seems safe but i feel like we could find out who the "bad people" are sooner if we were all together bc the we could have people keep watch...

Search Room 109

I may be sleeping there tonight unless a dead body is in the bed.

Super helpful, thanks!

FWIW, I searched 222 (found nothing) and am sleeping in 223 tonight.

...what happens if multiple people crowd into a room for the evening? :D

Hmm, this is interesting. I guess for the moment I will ...

Walk up the stairs to the second floor

I like the idea of watching others. Kills could be too easy otherwise. Room 109 is rocking.. music is loud and some will be up all night!

I suppose if we were in rooms in pairs then if something happens we'd have a pure look at who was involved. Obviously the safest thing would be if we all moved as one group but I'm sure the ruleset will punish us from acting that carefully.

Checking in

What does "note lynchings are not required, I leave that in the capable hands of all you morale upstanding humans" mean?? Does that mean there are no lynchings or that it's up to us if there are or not? If it's optional and we do a lynch, what happens if that person had one of the three objects? First one to loot their corpse gets it?

I don't see anything in the posted rules about night attacks (other than if you have the wand) or stealing from anyone, so I'm very confused as to how anyone is supposed to "collect them all" unless you happen to either be lucky enough to find them all yourself or somehow convince others to give them to you (assuming giving an object to someone else is even a game mechanism).

So the results of searches are given publicly?

Ooh, a ghost!

Okay, interesting to know that searches happen in real time.

I will sleep in room 202 folks.

I'm counting only 2 publicly stated search actions, plus one person mentioning about what they PM'd. Does just mentioning your PM'd action make the results of that action public?

Post 19 by britrock says he is sending in his action by PM
Post 22 by timmae has publicly stated search action for room 109
Post 23 by britrick says that his PM was to search room 222
Post 26 by EagleFan has publicly stated search action for room 117

i would assume it might be in our best intentions to not kill anyone until we have good evidence that they are bad or otherwise we might kill any special role good people.

britrock made his PM action public (post 23)

Ok, so mentioning the details of what you sent as a PM'd order makes it a public order? That's an important detail.

What happens if a person sends a PM order and then says something publicly that is different than their PM? Not stating it as an order, just mentioning their PM'd order the way britrock did, but giving misinformation about the room number. Does the results of the actual search get made public, even though we don't know that it was a different room? Or do the results remain private?

wouldn't saying that it has not happened yet be giving away that everyone that said things about their rooms has been truthful, basically outing that people have not lied telling us that there is nothing there when we were only going off of their word for it till now?

ick, that wasn't supposed to be bolded

RendeR, btw, unless this whole "mentioning" thing is a planned game mechanic, might I suggest you provide a standard format you want publicly stated game actions in? Such as in traditional werewolf, a lynching vote must be bolded, on its own line, and clearly stated.

Kinda seems like RendeR and Telle may not be staying in the same room this evening. ;)

I will also be sleeping in room 202 (the room Autumn is sleeping in) due to the proposed buddy system.

Funny thing.. when I first read this I thought you meant in the game and I got confused for a moment :)
