WW XXXV ( night phase ends friday 9:00 AM,) SAW!!!!
 
Taking signups for a new WW game. I'm not sure what the number should be. The theme of the game is the movie SAW but you don't need knowledge of the movie to play. Since this is my first game I want to keep it small. Game wil start when 12 people have signed up. Rules and roles to follow.

1. sndvls- murdered night one-retired detective
2. lonestargirl
3. izulde- murdered night 2- prisoner
4. Saldana- killed day 3-prisoner, booby trap victim
5. Neuqua
6. oliegirl- killed night 3-prisoner
7. swaggs
8. tyrith- lynched day 2-prisoner
9 dodgerchick
10. blade
11. grammaticus
12. St. Cronin-lynched day3-prisoner

You wake up and immediately turn over and vomit, your head is splitting and there is blood caked to the back of your neck. Disorientation starts to take over as you try to remember how you got here. The last thing you recall is someone coming up behind you. You sit up and look around at your surroundings, it seems you are in an abandoned apartment building. You wander out into the hallway and see a group of other people standing at the end of a dark hallway. One of them looks at you and says, “ good the last one is here” Last one? Confusion starts to take over. As the group spreads apart there is a tape recorder on a table sitting directly in front of a door. There is a note on the tape recorder that says, “press play when all 12 of you wake up” Confusion starts to take over again and it seems the only way to make sense is to press “play”

“ You have all been bought here to play a game, and playing the game is the key to survival. Behind this table is a door, this door is the only way in or out. There are 3 locks on this door with 3 separate keys that open them. Successfully find the keys and you find your way to freedom. Each key has a number that corresponds to the lock it opens. 2 of the lock open the doors to freedom, find the third lock and I wouldn’t want to be the one to open it. There are 2 of my assistants among you who posses the 2 correct keys, discover who they are and you discover your freedom. The third key is on an prisoner known only to my assistants. My assistants have the keys hidden in an odd place, their stomachs, and are now playing the game themselves. It is their job to eliminate the prisoners before the prisoners eliminate them and release themselves. Now look underneath the taperecorder and let the game begin…”

You look under the tape recorder and find a scalpel as it all starts to make sense.

Rules-

Each day cycle ALL villagers MUST cast a vote to lynch one player. That player will be lynched and, searched, for a key. When a key is found whoever cast the first successful lynch vote must open the corresponding lock. If they successfully open the lock that player will be immune from the next days lynch vote for their bravery. If they don’t successfully open the lock the next days lynch vote will be the least of their concerns.

Each night cycle the assistants will attempt to kill one of the prisoners in order to achieve a 1:1 ratio. Since it is an abandoned apartment building you all think it’s best to spend each night in a separate apartment to make the assistants job harder.



As always there is no quoting of PM’s and no editing of posts. Since this is my first game I hope all goes well, any questions feel free to post or PM me.

In case of a tie there will be no lynch that day.

Victory Conditions-

Prisoners: Find both correct keys that open the doors and release yourself to freedom while killing the assistants in the process

Assistants: Kill enough prisoners to achieve a 1:1 ratio thus being released by the mastermind.


Game Schedule:

The game will consist of 2 game periods. The Daytime period which will run from 9:00am EST until the deadline of 9:00pm EST each night between Monday and Friday. The Nighttime period will run from 9:00pm EST until the deadline of 9:00am EST each night between Monday and Friday. The weekend schedule will be stated at the time based on popular choice.


Roles-

Prisoners: You have been bought here against your will and must find the correct keys before the assistants eliminate you.

Assistants: You are the assistant to an evil mastermind who plays games using human pawns. You thought you were getting a front row seat to his latest masterpiece but found yourself playing for your life.


Bodybuilder: Once per night you may guard another players room. If you successfully block a kill you have a 30% chance of discovering the attacker. You may not guard the same person twice in a row.

Retired Detective: Each night you may select a person to spy on. If you select assistant up to no good you have a 75% chance of discovering their identify but they have a 25% chance of discovering your identity and springing a booby trap on you.

Fasttalker: Once per game you have the ability to either

1. Talk your way out of a lynch. The person who has the second most votes will be lynched instead.

2. Choose someone else to unlock the door, the person you have chosen will gain immunity if the lock opens successfully.




ROLES TO COME SOON

Great to see this game. Might I suggest putting something like WW XXXV SAW (12 Player Game) in the title so people know it's a short game?

oliegirl 10-15-2006 04:10 PM

Is it going to be very complex/complicated? I'd love to play but since I've only played the beginner game st.cronin did a week or two ago, I don't want to ruin it for anyone else...

I won't be in this one, BTW, but will read with interest.

Alan T 10-16-2006 02:02 PM

Im going to be reading along in interest too :) I thought about doing a Saw theme at one point, so interested to see how it goes!

Lorena 10-16-2006 03:30 PM

Let the game begin


Lorena 10-16-2006 03:47 PM

Hmm... since I've yet to see Saw II, in honor of this game, I'm renting it tonight.

BTW, have there ever been several WW games with similar themes? I'm curious because AlanT mentioned he was gonna do a Saw theme.

Neuqua 10-16-2006 04:19 PM

I'm not much of a horror movie guy, and the first Saw (haven't seen the others) was a bit too freaky for my tastes, nonetheless, I'm looking forward to playing!

SnDvls 10-16-2006 05:09 PM

I've never seen either movie so it should be interesting.

Grammaticus 10-16-2006 05:59 PM

It's all about choices......

same here


Lathum, a couple questions.
1. you say everyone MUST vote...is there a penalty for failing to do so?

2. is the "least of your concern" bit only if you open the door that doesnt lead to freedom?

Sorry, forgot to mention the non vote penalty. If you miss the vote you are automaticlly the person designated to attempt the key if there is one discovered but if you are succesfull you do not gain immunity.

The answer to number 2 basiclly means if you attempt to open the one lock that doesn't work something bad will happen. This is in the spirit of the movie where there are several bobby traps.

SO for example there are 3 keys labeled 1,2,3. Two of them will succesfully open the doors the third one will not. The key numbers have been pre determined.

saldana 10-16-2006 08:20 PM

thanks....that pretty much guarantees that i will never cast the first vote.

saldana 10-16-2006 08:20 PM

dola, at least not until i see what happens to someone else :D

There are only 3 keys, so chances are you wont hit one today.

Lorena 10-16-2006 08:29 PM

Got my role. Time to watch the movie

LoneStarGirl 10-16-2006 08:33 PM

Ooooh this seems spooky. I just need to find the two assistants now. I've never played a game without jail or something like it. This one should be interesting

Lorena 10-16-2006 08:53 PM

Wow, I just read the rules. Right now, I'm scared outta my mind . I think I need to be held... someone hold me.

LoneStarGirl 10-16-2006 09:07 PM

*holds dodgerchick*

I am ready to see Saw 3 now!!

Your the GM, make it happen!

Swaggs 10-16-2006 10:31 PM

This should be pretty interesting.

Tyrith 10-16-2006 10:38 PM

2 bad guys out of 12 is somewhat low. A conversion ability seems possible to me, especially if it's like the other mechanics and only has a probability for success and not a certainty. But that's for Night 1.

And the first key found gives us a 66% chance of hitting a good door.

Grammaticus 10-16-2006 10:44 PM

Wow, it feels weird without 50 different roles flying around.

Blade6119 10-16-2006 10:46 PM

VOTE ST.CRONIN

Im not afraid to start things off, though it amount to a random vote for someone who earned it with recent actions in past games.

Grammaticus 10-16-2006 10:52 PM

Since it is back to basics, I am putting a random vote out. It came up with the five spot

VOTE NEUQUA

Grammaticus 10-16-2006 10:52 PM

dola, subject to change of course

If you open the bad door, does it kill you outright or is there a chance you might live or do you have to pick a fellow prisoner, etc?
