WW Small Game: The Tudors (Day4 EARLY START! deadline - Friday 5pm ET)
 

Getting the signup list here for people to sign up if interested. The game will start on Friday and play through the weekend (with a slightly extended schedule) into next week.

First dib goes to people not currently playing in the WW Spawn game (either didn't sign up or got killed/lynched and are out of the game). I'll fill up the rest of the game with people who are interested in playing but are currently in the big game.


This game will be a pretty simple game and will at most have 11 players. (No more than 11 allowed to play) This rule set if it is popular is one that can be expanded for a larger game for a possible future usage, but for this game the rule set will be mostly minimized.

Note this game is based on the TVshow "The Tudors" which in some cases is different than the actual history that the show is based on. There might also be additional liberties taken in the game where it is different from the show.

This is a basic game of Werewolf/Mafia, where lying and deceit is a common occurrence and often necessary to survive.

Teams and winning conditions:

Loyalists - You are true to England and the Catholic Church. Your goal is to remove any reformist and stop the reform from entering England

Reformist - You are tired of the abuse of the Catholic Church and will go to no end to overthrow it. Your goal is to remove enough loyal Catholics to reach a 1:1 ratio with the remaining Catholics and thus help England become protestant.

There are no hidden teams or third parties in this game.

Game Cycles (Turns):

This game will have a traditional Day/Night cycle to it.

The Day Cycle will begin each day at 7am EST. During the Day Cycle, the only action from all players (both loyalists and reformists) will be to take part in the lynch vote. The deadline for the Day Cycle, and the lynch is 9:00:59pm EST unless otherwise explicitly stated. Any votes that come in at 9:01:00pm EST or later are null and void.

The Night Cycle will begin each evening at 9:01pm EST (or immediately after the lynch results) and will end at the night cycle deadline of 6:59:59am EST the following morning unless otherwise explicitly stated. Conditional orders for Night Cycle actions are accepted and welcomed if your schedule prohibits you from being available 9pm or later.

Lynch Vote:

Each day cycle all players must take part in the lynch vote. The player with the most votes ends up lynched unless some other action blocks that from occurring. No lynch is not an acceptable vote for this game. In the case of a tie, there is an unknown tiebreaker that will still result in the lynching of a player.

Roles:

Each reformist and loyalist will have a role listed below. Not all of these roles will be in the game, however the reformist have spies that have informed them to which roles currently are not around and thus available for fake reveals if needed. Roles that have additional abilities are (BOLDED)

Loyalist roles:

King Henry VIII - King of England (DUKE)
Catherine of Aragon - Queen consort to King Henry and Aunt to Charles, Holy Roman Emperor
Anne Boleyn - Lady-in-waiting to Catherine and rumored to have the affection of the King.
Cardinal Wolsey - Cardinal of York and most trusted adviser to the King (SEER)
Sir Thomas More - A pious humanist and long time friend of the King
Edward Stafford, Duke of Buckingham - Direct decendant of Edward II and Knight of the Garter. The current Lord High Constable (BODYGUARD)
Princess Margaret Tudor - The sister of the King, matched to marry the elderly King of Portugal against her personal desires.
Bishop John Fisher - The Bishop of Rochester
Mary Boleyn - Sister of Anne Boleyn and one time mistress of King Henry
Lady Elizabeth Blount - One time mistress of King Henry, gave birth to his illegitimate son who later died.
Princess Mary Tudor - Daughter of King Henry and Catherine

Reformist roles:

Martin Luther - A German monk and theologian who started the reformist movement (BRUTAL)
Thomas Cranmer - Archbishop of Canterbury
Thomas Cromwell - Head Chancellor and advisor to the King. Secretly loyal to the reformist movement. (TRAITOR)

*note the traitor role knows who the other reformist are, but they do not know who he is. He is not allowed to communicate privately with the other reformist. He will scan as a loyalist but wins with the reformist*


Other Rules:

As normal with Werewolf games, no editing of posts are allowed, no outside communication regarding this game (via PM, email, IM or pillowtalk) is allowed either unless specifically stated.

As things may get heated, please refrain from any name calling or personal insults that go beyond the game.

I withold the right to make modifications to this rule set as needed.

IN

I'll play unless there are others not involved in Spawn who wish to play.

spawn is to complex.

In

in

Rules, roles and storyline have all been updated.

I'll play.

I will play, it will be fun to double up in werewolf if you have room... I need to get all my Werewolfing in before school starts in august

lol, I needt read a little more carefully. I first didn't like the idea of the game with everyone having a role (seen that end very quickly with everyone revealing and the wolves left flapping in the breeze) until I saw the stipulation that not all are used and the "wolves" will know the vacant ones.

Sign me up.

I stayed out of the other game as it seemed to be way too complex for the time I had available for it. I also need to get my werewolf fix in over the next few weeks as I'll be back in India in August for about a month.

Just a quick bump. We have 7 interested. I would like to get a few more if anyone else is interested. Planning to send out roles tommorrow.

I would double up but I'm going to be busy this weekend so all my WW time better be restricted to Spawn.

I want to play but the other game is so intense, I'm not sure I can handle both of them. :(

I had my travel plans change just slightly so I'm not going to send out roles today for this game. Roles will go out either tommorrow evening or Sunday morning.

Day 1 deadline will end at 9pm EST on Monday.

We'll run with the 7 that have signed up plus any others that wish to sign up over the next 24-36 hours.

Well some people finally died, you know like a normal game, so perhaps Telle and mccollins will want to play.

Since we currently only have 6 people, I'll hold off a bit longer to see if I can at least get 7 players for this game. Would like to have that number minimally at least. If we can get 1-5 more people signed up, we'll aim for a Sunday night or monday night start.

lets get some people in this game!!!

I'll play.

Ack.. i forgot I'm going to be away Thursday afternoon through Monday afternoon. Depending on how you're doing weekend play though I might be able to cover that with conditionals.

If you're playing, I am starting this game later today/tonight with first deadline tommorrow. With that schedule a 7 person game would be over by thursday or thursday night at the latest, so you should be fine.

Ok I'll play then.

3 more dead today, so that might help fill this one up.

With 7 people signed up, game will start tonight after my softball game (around 9pm ESTish). I will send out roles then with day one ending on Tuesday. Still time for anyone else to join up now though, I'll take up to 11.

Sign me up, I used to play on another forum, but no one was every playing, figured I would give it a try here.

Now I need a new game. :( Sign me up.

welcome

sorry

thx lathum, cant wait to get this started, and to learn from a new bunch of guys and gals, should be fun

Are you in town yet or in transit?

got in last sunday.

Welcome to summer. Hit me up once you get settled.

Alan, if I end up dying in Spawn before this game starts, I'll play.

Ok closing up signups and sending out roles in a little bit. Don't start the game until I officially start it!

Nice to be playing again.

So all the king can thing about is populating the world with his genes, typical man, cant say that I blame him though

Vanilla villager checking in.

I likely won't be around much tomorrow, so I'm going to vote early. This is a respect vote for one of the stars of the draft game:

VOTE EAGLEFAN

I appear to be a vanilla villager. I have one of the roles listed above, but it doesn't seem to come with any abilities.

Plain boring vanilla villager checking in. Sigh.

Oh, I have a role listed above, but no special powers.

i prefer strawberry, but vanilla is always a safe bet...lol

Wow, I don't even make it 10 minutes before getting a vote... :(

At least it wasn't olierage getting me. ;)

Hey, I had to vote somebody.

I think we all have a "role listed above"... :)

jb?

(Sorry, couldn't resist)

vote Path

Random selection wasn't kind to you. Also wanted to get a little action on someone out there and not just make a "revenge vote" just to get some kind of talk going.
