Hi guys, I'm going to make a short game that will be played in quicktopic like the ONUW games. The game is not traditional mafia per say, but it has the same elements of voting, deception et cetera. I will post more details about it when I get to my conmputer, but here are the the info of who can apply, and what is needed:

You can apply if:
- You have played at least one Gafiagame, and have not dropped out during it.
- You know how Quicktopic works (anyone ever been there fills this)


Essential info:
- Game will be one day-phase long, and it will last five IRL days
- All voting will be done in the quicktopic, so no pm voting.
- You need to be very active. The gamw won't function if anyone ignores it.
- If you apply, look at who the other players are. It's important.
- During the game you can't use your usual nickname in the quicktopic. Your role pm will tell you what nickname you must use.

I'll tell later what the core idea is... For now I'll let it be a secret. I will tell you that I have played this design twice before, so I know it works.

Would love to try this out! Very intriguing.

Put me in, I'll likely be dead in Cthulhu soon anyways

This sounds fascinating. Playing anonymously will remove the metagaming from the game, or transform it because you could role play as someone else. I will not join as long as I am still alive in NX, but if there is a spectator thread, I would love to watch it!

How many players do you need? I'm tentatively interested. I assume this is not the same game that I helped with already?

Aw man, I missed the signups for Burb's game. I have to distance myself from the NX game so I can actually post again. I should get to work on my Avalon adaptation :p

The Quicktopic will have all information, but here is the short version.

You guys were right about impersonating someone else, because we are playing…

The Target Game


The Rules (Short version)

1. In the beginning of the game, one of the players will be revealed to be a scum. Everyone will know the identity of the scum from the start.
2. However, you will all play in the quicktopic with false nicknames, so no one know who the others are.
3. You are not allowed to reveal your real nickname at any point. However, you can lie that you are the scum player.
4. Voting is done by writing VOTE: PLAYER with bold tags. You can do bold tags in quicktopic by writing <b> *insert text* </b>
5. The day will last five irl days. It can end prematurely, if more than majority is reached (in 11-player version, it means seven votes for one person).
6. However, if majority is not reached, all votes will be reset, and we advance to a night phase, that lasts exactly 24 hours. During the night phase, you will all vote in the thread again, but you are forbidden to discuss about anything else.

What happens during the game:
1. You will mostly just have normal conversation first, while trying to deduce who the sum is. I will give you topics to talk about, if discussion dies out.
2. After a while though I will not give any discussion ideas, because you will need to start to figure out if you want to help on finding the scum, or if you want to try and act like the scum-player as much as you can.

Here’s the important part:

Win Conditions

1. The Scum will win if he is not voted out of the game.
2. The others will win, if they vote out the scum.
3. However, a player will also win, if they themselves get voted out at the end of the game…
4. So in short, if scum is not voted out but another player is, the winners will be scum and the one who was voted out. If Scum is found, everyone else will win instead.

So in short, your mission is to find out which player is the scum… while you all try act like him or her. Can you forget your playstyle, and try to play just like another player does? This is the reason why everyone had to play at least one gafia game, so that anyone can check the playstyle of the scum. And remember, no revealing of GAF nicknames. This game is not designed to be won by cheating, you know :p.

Next I will go to RNG and decide out the scum, and tell it here. Then I’ll post PM’s. You cna sk questions about the game here.

So now everyone has to make everyone else believe they're Blarg, and Blarg has to not be as Blargish? Thread link/spoilers PM pls.

I think Launchpad had managed to log into his wrong quick topic account 2 separate times during ONUW3, so that could be hilarious if it happens again.
