Death Note Game

May as well anyway, right?

 

Dammit Lucy! Next time you should be more careful about revealing your name! D:

 

Sorry Theodore, I was careless. I think the name Lucy fits in well with my character...

 

Come on, this can't die.

 

I am in next round

:/8D:

 

In next round.

 

Blast from the past!? Let's see if I can pull the other two into doing this one last time.

 

In. 'Bout time I saw this again. *waits on top of box to die*

 

Hey, guys, as this appears to be getting somewhat dead, I'm going to try out a new rules system this round, unless there are objections. It's a big deviation from the norm, and I'm mostly doing it as an experiment to dust out the cobwebs and the like. If it's liked, it can continue for a few more rounds. If not, we can scrap it.

Because it's different, it's only fair to have participants who have already signed up to this round re-express interest in playing. So without further ado, here are the rules for this round:

Death Note Game
Dustin' Out the Cobwebs Edition​

Shinigami

• There is one Shinigami.
• The Shinigami manages the game, selects the roles for each player and makes stuff work.
• The Shinigami is not a player, and as such does not count towards player-count, nor can he be targeted by abilities.
• The Shinigami PMs each person with their role at the beginning of the game.

Kira

• Two Kira are selected.
• The Kira consult together and can kill one person per day by PMing the Shinigami.
• There are no restrictions on who they can kill.
• The Shinigami will post their kill each day.
• If the Kira outnumber or are equal to the remaining Detectives (including L and Watari), they are victorious.

L

• L is allowed to investigate one person per day.
• He does this by PMing the name of one person to the Shinigami.
• He will be PM'd a result telling him whether the chosen person is innocent or guilty at the end of the day.

Watari

• Watari is able to shield one person from the Kira per day.
• He may not shield himself.
• If the Kira target the person he is shielding, they fail to kill that day.

Detectives

• Everyone else is a Detective.
• The Detectives have no specific abilities.

Voting

• Each day, everyone votes on one person to execute on suspicion of being Kira.
• Votes are made by posting in the thread with the line, 'I vote...'
• At the end of the day, the person with the most votes is killed.
• It is possible to vote to kill no one.
• If votes are equal, a RNG will be used to determine who is executed.
• Votes can be altered up until an hour before the end of the day (and will be accepted up until the day-end).

Everything else

• When a player dies, his role is revealed.
• Screenshotting PMs is disallowed.
• The 'day' starts and ends at a set time.
• Seven people minimum are required to play. (Excluding Shinigami)

No, it doesn't bear any resemblance to Mafia

 

P! Why have you turned so fascist?!

 

It's for the greater good.

 

Y'all, totally in.
Because cobwebs are sexy.

 

Hmm I'm unsure about it but hey I'll give it a go, I'm in. You might have to help us along as we get used to it.

 

Wait, so no names are actually needed to kill? Whatever, then I'm in. I <3 Mafia.

 

No names? Well, that certainly makes things interesting.

 

And makes this just a Death Note version of Mafia.

 

Well you can't have any. THE COBWEBS BE MINE!

*goes craft Necro Armor*

Oh, and I'm in.

 

I'm in and holy sh*t when did Tikem come back?

 

I been lurking.

 

Because I overlooked a few things, for this round people cannot join in partway, and will have to wait until the end of the round to participate.

The roles will be finalised and sent out at Monday, 25 July 2011 at 19:00:00, after which point participation is closed.

The first day of the round begins Tuesday, 26 July 2011 at 09:00:00. L, Watari and Kira will have to have PMed me their choices for who to investigate/protect/kill prior to that time. (This is essentially 'day 0' in which special roles do their thing, but voting is not done.)

Please don't reveal your role before Day 1.

Anything I've missed? Oh, yeah. This time round it's a team game. Either Kira win or Detectives win. Personal survival is not the priority.
