WW Dukes Versus Hunters (GAME OVER!!--See Post #1387)

[Chief Rum]

The player list is coming along nicely, so we should be able to start this coming Monday. Roles will be sent out Sunday night.

I am finalizing the ruleset details, and if I finish before the end of my work day, I will put them up before I leave. If I don't finish them today, they will go up tomorrow night at the latest.

[The Jackal]

sidenote: pretty sure I was deciding between The Duke and The Jackal when setting up a forum name here

[Raven]

So the Hunter's kill gets processed immediately (well, as soon as Chief sees it), and not at the deadline, correct?

Generally, correct.

Keep in mind there will be modifications to some Hunter roles that could affect this. But by and large, that is how the Hunter works, yes.

[EagleFan]

So half of the game is killed of about ten minutes after CR says go.

[MrBug708]

I'm game

[Autumn]

I sent my kill order in yesterday.

Maybe you can strike font from beyond the grave. We don't know the rules just yet.

[Autumn]

Font has already caught the wolves, don't worry folks.

[Chief Rum]

I am putting up final roles tonight and will actually send out roles first thing in the morning for a Tuesday midday deadline. I came to realize how silly it would be to run a Day One for either a half day (Monday deadline) or a day and a half (Tuesday deadline).

[EagleFan]

Looking forward to the carnage...

[Chief Rum]

Rules and roles have been set out in the second and third posts of the thread.

The only additions to be made there going forward will be a handful of items I will add to the third post before the start of the game.

Roles will be sent out when I get to work in the morning, and the game will then begin.

Please let me know if you have any questions about the ruleset.

[Narcizo]

Is the hunter who executed a kill order revealed on killing? Is the duke who moved a vote revealed?

[Narcizo]

Oh and the rules look really interesting - particularly the wolves being in on the minor victory condition with the villagers.

[JAG]

Love the rules, nice work.

[timmae]

Ready for a messy day... See everyone on the backside!

[The Jackal]

Very cool ruleset. Makes it much less likely that everyone will die on D1

[Autumn]

This is going to be nuts. the good kind of nuts.

[Narcizo]

Cashew.

[fontisian]

I love cashews.

Yes, both the hunters and dukes are revealed when their actions result in public consequences.

[Chief Rum]

Okay, putting in some items on the front page, then rolling for the random roles and then sending PMs out.

If you receive your role, please do not post anything game related before I start the game.

[Chief Rum]

Items have been added to the third post.

[Chief Rum]

Key change: I have added a Cultist role. See the third post for details.

[Chief Rum]

Roles going out.

[Chief Rum]

Roles have been sent out. The next post will officially start the game.

[Chief Rum]

It was just another peaceful day in the Bayou in the sleepy swamp village of Rollette.

That is, until someone discovered an oil deposit on village lands.

All of a sudden, the area was swamped with sweet talking carpetbaggers, trying to work their way into the village and stake their claim. They are the Dukes.

The local gun-toting yokels are having none of that. They don't care about oil or money. They just want to be left alone. They are the Hunters.

Whoever wins out will claim the oil.

But is that it? No! There are suspicions of a more insidious nature, a group of oil profiteers who will stop at nothing to claim all the oil and the money coming from it. They will kill every last Hunter and Duke if they need to to get it.

But who are they? They could be Hunters or the could be Dukes?

Can the village find them--and keep the oil--before the profiteers can get their hands on all that oil money?

DAY ONE HAS BEGUN.

The deadline for Day One is Tuesday (tomorrow) at 4 p.m. EST/1 p.m. PDT

A reminder: Hunters may not shoot on this day. No shooting is allowed on Day One at all, or in the last hour before the deadline on any day.

[Grover]

Oil? Obligatory...

"I drink your milkshake!"

[timmae]

This is a very complex ruleset from a strategy standpoint. Many roles, a few items, quite a bit of cause and effect. Holy shitballs this will be fun.

OOG: Just a heads up that I have offsite meetings from 8am until 4pm CST tomorrow (Tuesday).

I am so annoyed, with all these cool abilities and items, I managed to roll the vanilla-ist of vanillas. I cannot believe.

[JAG]

Vote The Jackal

Because he's always a wolf (except last game).

For the record, items may be passed at any time, not just at the deadlines.

Cool.

I am become death, destroyer of worlds.


My goal this game is to be responsible for the death of someone. Luckily, that probably be very easy.

[Vaimes]

Oh, sweet.

Quick, everyone, funnel me your goods.

Dunno Vaimes.. That was the fastest vote/unvote I've seen. Your play style is rather chaotic, and you are impossible for me to read.

timmae is scum because he felt the need to justify his RVS vote.

[Grover]

I guess we'll just have to lynch timmae, and then I can Cop check fontisian toNight.
