Spyfall - Game Over -- GreyIce Wins

[Narninian]

Very Simple Game - Should be fun. Should be fast.
We'll play 5 rounds.

Premise:

The Bad news: The enemies have sent a spy to infiltrate your location, if you don't find him within a week he'll blow everyone up.
The Good news: Since the spy will have to die in the process, the enemies only got a spy who is absolutely terrible to volunteer. He has no intel, he has no idea where he is, and for some reason he can't figure it out by looking.

Everyone will be given a location (from a large list of possible locations) and a role (somebody who might be at that location) except for one player - who will only know that they are a spy. Starting with a random player (or whoever was a spy in the last round following the first). Players will ask a player of their choice a question about the location they are in. The player asked must answer the question as if they were in that location. They can't be too vague, otherwise people will think they are the spy, they can't answer too specifically or they spy might figure out what the location is. That player then continues, and asks another player a question (anybody but the person that asked them) and the game continues.

Once per round each player may accuse one player of being the spy. If anyone disagrees (but the accused player) then nothing happens and the game continues. If everyone agrees (but the accused player) then that player is revealed. If they were the spy, everyone else gets 1 point, and the accuser gets 1 bonus point. If they were not the spy, the spy gets 4 points.

A spy, if not the asker, or the person just asked a question. May reveal themselves and guess a location. If they spy is wrong, then the round ends and everyone else gets 1 point. If the spy is correct the round ends they get 4 points.

At the end of the round (7 days) - Then everyone has one last chance to guess the spy. You'll be able to *briefly* discuss your suspicions and vote (1 day). If everybody votes for the spy but the spy, then everyone gets 1 point, otherwise the spy wins and gets 2 points.

....

Example: Everyone is given the 'Space' Station location but Player b who is the spy.

Player A (Space Tourist) asks Player C 'Could you open a window for me?'
Player C (Scientist) 'No, I'd rather not' ---- This is fairly vague, but acknowledges that opening a window on a space station is a bad idea.
Player C asks Player B(Spy) 'Would it be appropriate to sleep here?'
Player B Answers 'I wouldn't want to be caught doing it' --A lot of locations it would be bad to sleep in.
Player B asks Player D (Doctor) 'Whats the Temperature Like'
Player D answers 'Climate Controlled'
Player F accusses Player B of being a spy for answering the sleep question wrong and having a generic question that doesn't help narrow down the spy. Everyone agrees. Since B is a spy, F gets 2 points, B gets 0 points, everyone else gets 1 point.


If you can't respond *at least *within a day, you probably shouldn't be playing. (or playing with a partner)

--------

Any spectator (somebody who is not currently one of the 8 'players') may receive a point if they correctly identify the location (Through PM to me) or spy before the end of the round. You may only guess one location and it must be done before the round ends (before the 'voting' phase if there is one)

[McMenno]

It sounds very hard to be the spy, but /in

[Narninian]

You'd be surprised. If people are too specific with their questions then the location can quickly be deduced or at least narrowed down enough for the spy to be able to answer questions.
If they are too vague, then the spy can easily blend in. That being said it *IS* harder for the spy, but this is why they get more points.

let the spy fall...

[ChannelDelibird]

/in like mad

[McMenno]

Question: How are roles relevant? Is it to give us something to claim? For role asking?

[Aronis]

/in

[RedCoyote]

/in, please! This sounds like a lot of fun.

[GreyICE]

/in

[Narninian]

No, you don't 'claim' your role - its just allows you to frame your answers.

For example: If Broadway theater is the location, then somebody might get the role of actor, somebody else might be a critic.
An actor might answer the question how often do you come here (every day) differently than a critic (Once every couple weeks?)

[McMenno]

Oh, I see, so the spy would have to come up with a role to stay consistent... I get it now.

To clarify - people shouldnt be saying their roles...

[Save The Dragons]

My role is a Roll Roller, I roll dinner rolls around the bakery. Don't tell the spy.

[ChannelDelibird]

My role is a Roll Roller, I roll dinner rolls around the bakery. Don't tell the spy.

Don't worry. We'll roll with it.

[vonflare]

/in, if it's still taking signups

[RedCoyote]

My role is a Roll Roller, I roll dinner rolls around the bakery. Don't tell the spy.

Don't say muffin!

[GreyICE]

I'm a Juggalo!

[ZZZX]

And I am optimus Prime

[Narninian]

Damn it- there is no way the spy won't know where they are now; where else but the closet would have optimus prime, the juggalo and a role roller and a muffin?!

[Narninian]

Alright; Everyone's got their roles;

Anybody that wants to ask the first question can.
From then on, the persons answers the question and then asks a new person other than the previous asker.

[Empking]

RedCoyote: How large is the largest thing around here?
