Killing Game Signups The First

[Dimentio]

Ah ha ha ha, I bet you foolish gamers thought you'd seen the last of me when you defeated my L-Power so long ago, but I have been biding my time until I had the strength to exact my revenge!

I have created a world for you where you will be fitted into familiar roles, but ah ha! There's a catch! You see, this world is like a stage where you will kill each other for my amusement and the only way out is to crawl over the corpses of your friends... a lonely survivor. Everyone knows a good comedy needs a little tragedy, so get ready to dance my little puppets! For now, Ciao!

Pedigree here, the below introduction and rules (click the spoiler) are credited to Fun with Despair on Minus World. The Killing Games there inspired this one.

Spoiler

An Introduction

The Killing Game is a fast-paced do-or-die experience, in which you'll betray your friends, sacrifice some poor sap, lie about your special role, plan murders, and engage in some courtroom drama.

Unlike Kira Game, which was almost entirely a team vs. team experience, occasionally leading to circlejerkery, alliances, and generally securing the win for whichever team could jack themselves off faster, the Killing Game is every man for themselves. You can of course, ally yourselves with others to get further in the game and scheme to take down suspicious people, but it all comes down to the last man standing, and when the time comes, your partners will look mighty ripe for the picking.

Of course it's not always that simple. Every game will have a different set of secret special roles which each have different powers for every player. Some help you get away with murder more easily, some help you survive, and some help you catch the culprit.

In this particular iteration, we have roles based on Super Mario characters and some of their benefits are used outside of the Killing Phase!

It sounds rather complicated, but actually it's a very simple game, and a lot easier to get into than the other similar games, like Kira Game before it. Much of this game comes from your own creativity with your murders, and how you choose to use environmental quirks and special powers to pull them off or frame others, as opposed to convoluted rules in and of themselves. Speaking of which...

Rules: Killing Phase

As stated, this game is an absolute cakewalk to play. One "Phase" of the game lasts two days. One day is the killing phase which is probably the easiest to participate in. Once per Killing Phase, unless your role states otherwise, you may submit a "murder" to the host through PM. All this PM has to say is who you want to kill, how you want to kill them, and why you want them dead. Of course, you can also just not kill, and instead pull off some stupid action like making Gato's clothes into a Klan robe, stealing paint, etc. The world is yours basically, and how you spend your night is entirely up to you. The sky's the limit here. 

It's that simple! And be sure to use the locations and your special power to your advantage here, as the more detailed you make your murder plan, the more likely it'll be that it won't have any serious flaws, and the more likely it'll be that you'll get away with it in turn.

The successful killer is selected randomly out of all submissions, but watch out, because if anyone tries to target the same guy as you and fails, or you pass through a room someone else chooses to watch, you'll have a witness on your hands, and they'll have some hints as to who you are, unless your power obscures it.

You'll get a reward consisting of a chunk of the final pot (if there is one) and a special badge if you succeed, the former of which will be shared equally among all successful murderers and the survivor at the end. 

...Oh, and you'd better have at least one guy try to murder, because if no one does, I'll lynch a random instead!

Rules: Investigation Phase
This phase, also lasting a day, is where the more social aspect of the game kicks in. The victim will be discovered, the crime scene will be revealed, and the anonymous "witness accounts' will be revealed all in the OP for this phase thread. The witnesses may know more than the thread lets on, but if you're a witness, you might want to be careful about coming forward with the info you have received, lest you seem suspicious yourself as a result.

If you want an example of how these Investigation Phases go, there's plenty in the archives. They're overall very simple to understand.

But it's all in your hands now. Whether you're the killer or not, the evidence is laid out, the witnesses are around, and you'll welcome to request more info on the scene, body, or anything else. The host will answer your questions about the case and evidence, up to a certain point obviously. You won't just be able to ask who the killer is. 

Discussion and defense of your position, along with speculation on roles and private conversation with anyone you deem trustworthy is encouraged, but do try to keep a decent chunk of your revelations and accusations in the thread. There were some people who liked to observe the last one, and I'd like to keep it fun for them too.

Open this whole time of course, is the Class Trial thread, in which you can vote on who you feel is guilty. Be warned though, all your votes are public, and people would certainly be bothered if you voted for them while they're innocent. 

At the end of this phase, the one with the most votes is lynched, and the game resumes. Remember that if all the votes are equal, or no one votes at all, it'll go to a random lynch! 

NOTE: Early confessions do not close the CLASS TRIAL anymore. They will not be verified in any way and are no longer valid.

...And that's generally how this works. Pretty easy right?

If you'd like to join in, the buy-in is going to be 5 coins with the pool going to the last man or woman standing. There are only going to be 10 slots and the Special Roles are going to be distributed randomly as soon as all of them are filled. Expect playtime to be around 10-15 days. To sign up, simply reply with "me" in this thread and then donate 5 coins to @Dimentio.

This would probably start on Wednesday, December 13th but that's just an estimate. I will need a subforum made with Dimentio having mod powers in it around that time, but nothing too crazy.

Anyways, looking forward to seeing how this goes!

I should mention that we will probably break for the holidays, so don't let that be a concern.

Apparently "me" is too short for this website to let me post it alone. :/

Fun with Despair is currently busy but will sign up later, so one spot reserved for him. If he cancels his signup, I'll make the slot available immediately.

So these are the lengths that people will go to to spread their despair... Even enticing people on a children's forum into playing their twisted games. 



Turning these beacons of hope into your playthings... Disgusting! To think that even an agent of despair would go so far. I'm joining this game of yours myself, and I'll show you the power of hope!



Don't worry, everyone! We'll all make it through this together, because that's what hope is!

3 slots remain, and then I'll get roles out and make the discord as well as other stuff leading up to the game's start on December 13th.

Oh, my dear gamer, you think that letter you sent me was cute? Your witness accounts are gonna be filled with clowns. That I can promise you.

Two slots remain unfilled, I wonder who will claim them. For now, ciao!

Worth noting that I bumped up the Coin pool to 90! That means with two other people paying their fee, 100 coins will go to the survivor of this whole thing!

I guess I'll join. I don't see anything else to do with my time on the forums, so something like this can keep me occupied.
