tengaku squared

End of day.

END OF NIGHT 1. IT IS NOW DAY 1. A loud voice boomed through the hallways. "It appears you are in a state of confusion. If you fail to find Mrs. Scarlet's killers, great misfortune will fall on you all..." Everyone looked around in confusion. "Since you haven't found any suspects, you must vote for a punishment that your group will suffer. You can choose from Forced Participation, Madhouse, and Bad Accident," the voice continued, then it went silent. ============= For every night that nobody uses Catch, everyone must vote for a punishment. Although right now, the punishments are relatively weak, if nobody uses Catch during say, Night 5, the punishments will be extremely severe. Voting poll is up. Have a rotten day! (Note 1: Should there be a tie for lead, ALL tied punishments will be carried out. Yes, I'm a jerk, I know.) (Note 2: I can also vote for a punishment.)

Maxwell took a glance at the running Aki, face flushed red. He looked around the room in confusion, and noticed one person missing. He twiddled with his mustache, then noted that she likely came from the weapons room. He turned around, a experienced facade covering his concern. "Misaki, eh. She could be a nuisance." ============================================= Ta-dah! Did I forget to mention that all the NPCs have their own agendas? Maxwell is now more likely to target Misaki for his night action. (Yes, stuff you type in here will influence NPC actions and decisions, so they'll eventually become less random. Looks like Maxwell has something to hide.) (And also, yes, I will announce when an action you do will influence NPC behavior. I recommend you try manipulating them for your own purposes.)

2 more days, 6 PM Mountain Time until day.

The role playing aspect of this round is simple: fill in what the 'game' does not. I would like to see more role playing in this thread. ^ With the exception of some, I probably already sent a conversation PM to you. Just use that to PM me with the name of your roommate. If they conflict, I will default to random. If one of them don't respond, I will default to the only PM I have.

There are people out there with those same actions, and should they want to explain those actions, they have the right to do so. They are (with the exception of Lead, in my opinion) pretty obvious with their name. I will hint at Lead's function: leading, as in leading people. More like herding people. I will say one thing about Silence's function: it has nothing to do with speech.

I want to argue against this idea, but I have no argument against it, so sure, why not.

PMs now coming out, and official news too! A) NPCs are here! 4 of them in the spoiler, and all of them can potentially use actions (on random targets), though of course, they may also Lock Door (see below). Also, all NPCs are valid targets for actions. (There is a 40% chance that both NPCs of a room will go out on the same night, and a 55% chance that both NPCs will stay in the room. The 5% means one will lock the door and the other will leave the room.) NPCs do not count as civilians for the winning condition of the murderers. There are night and day phases, each last 3 days.. For this night phase, the only thing you may do is pick a roommate. It's completely unsafe to remain alone while murderers are around, so your group has decided to bunker up into rooms, 2 in each room. I expect a PM by the end of this night phase (which ends in 3 days) with your roommate. Also, should your roommate be injured, you will be immediately notified and by whom. C) After you pick your roommate, all of you gain the ability Lock Door, which you can use at night, which causes you to lock your door for the night. If anyone attempts to visit you, unless they are using Catch they will fail, and you will be notified (specific names, but not for why). In addition, if your roommate happens to leave the room the night you Lock Door, they will be locked out. This means that they will be unprotected for that night, and you will not be notified of injury. D) All civilians have a one-time night ability called Catch. Simply, you catch someone you believe is suspicious, and they'll be brought to the whole group, where a vote will commence. Note, there are roles unable to use Catch, but injury doesn't affect Catch. E) It is required for you to play your role. Questions? Note: I have been unable to PM Ren-kun, Heksu and Rosie. Please open up your private messaging capability and clear your inboxes. You will be kicked in 6 days if you do not do so, due to the importance of PMs in this round.

Signups are now closed for this round! PMs will be sent out in 1 hour (and the first post will be updated with the most recent information). (Mod comment, please disregard) It came out looking a lot like Mafia. This'll be fun.

^ Great way to spur "motivation" in students.

Nope. :V In all seriousness, I have decided on two things. One) there will be special roles, but two) I will not release specific information on those special roles until the game ends. ...I will give out general information though.

That's because you decided to make it Doctor Who instead of Detective Conan or Touhou D:

Sign up in the topic after the sign-up time passes. No sign up posts required, in fact I discourage them.

:V

You choose your names, but I 'assign' you a 'role'. 8, as always. I imagine there'll also be about 4 NPCs. Who cares? But seriously, I haven't given it any thought.
