    Multitasking

    , Masqueraders force pairs to exit.

Samples
Spoiler: Invitee
Music

Welcome to Masqué! You are an
Invitee
.

You are bringing the following item with you:
  • Mask - You own a mask, protecting your identity. If you lose it, you'll have to exit the masquerade.
You win if all threats to the
Invitees
have exited the masquerade and at least one
Invitee
remains.

Confirm by replying to this note with the answer to the question, "How many items are you bringing with you?"

Spoiler: Intruder
Music

Welcome to Masqué! You are an
Intruder
with .

You are bringing the following items with you:
  • Mask - You own a mask, protecting your identity. If you lose it, you'll have to exit the masquerade.
  • Automaton - You own an automaton, which you may use at any time during a
    Session
    to help you wrangle masks off. Unfortunately for you, the automaton doesn't have a return function so you may only use it once. Furthermore, you must tell it the true identities of both masqueraders in the pair that you want to target in order to successfully wrangle off their masks.
  • Paper - You own a piece of paper, which tells you the location of a secret hideout located here where you may converse at all times. You can place your automation at that hideout if you ever have to exit the masquerade.
You win if at least one
Intruder
remains and all other masqueraders have exited the masquerade (or if nothing can prevent the same).

Confirm by posting in the
Intruder
hideout or by replying to this note with the answer to the question, "How many items are you bringing with you?"

Regarding Masks

Inspired by penguin_alien and Ydrasse
Known only to their possessors!

Alas, those
Intruders
, they'll be the guessers!

How they wish to unmask you all!

How they want to use them to cause your downfall!

Beware, friends, and confide to none!

Heed this advice or you're done!
Notice
  • I'm going to be lenient and allow you to change anything you want except the Login Information and all parts of your profile except Pronoun.
  • Please use the Secret Alt as though it is your only account and only in this game.
  • Main-slipping (or alt-slipping) will result in immediate force replacement.
    • If somebody else is force-replaced through this, avoid talking about them in the main thread.
    • Similar to what P_A did in Mini 2250, you may PM me to send your condolences.
  • Avoid referencing mains.
  • If there's anything else that you're unsure about, contact me or Datisi.

9/9 Confirmed

The game will commence when all players have confirmed or in (expired on 2022-09-25 20:09:39), whichever happens earlier.

Also, I'll be on vacation in Queensland from 26 September to 3 October, so Datisi will take over for that period.

Flavour
Why does a Bal Masqué have a DJ?

RH paced back and force as the Masqueraders strode into his vision.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

He was pretty sure that only 7 of them said that they were coming.

2 of them must be
Intruders
, then.


"Salutations!" greeted Masquerader Red. "What plagues you, RH?"
RH gradually began an explanation as a group of Masqueraders strolled around the venue and talked with Datisi.
Seeing RH had finally ceased speaking, Datisi seized the microphone and gave instructions to the assembled crowd.
Find your dance partners and we shall commence!
[/mech]
Reception Commencement

Not In A Pair
- Masquerader Red, Masquerader Green, Masquerader Blue, Masquerader Yellow, Masquerader Cyan, Masquerader Magenta, Masquerader Olive, Masquerader Purple, Masquerader Teal

Notes
  • The combined mod ISO is here.
  • As long as both players reciprocate the pairing, the pair will be formed.
The
Reception
concludes in (expired on 2022-09-30 14:50:00).

Hello Red and Magenta, I'm here as well. I'm about to fall asleep on the floor and have a dream (or nightmare.) It would be best if I can talk to you first, in case my dream is about this game.

Hello.

Red, Purple and Yellow are Invitees.

Magenta and Teal could be Intruders.

Hello, Magenta.

I like My Songs Know What You Did In The Dark (Light Em Up) and Immortals. I don't know any of their other songs.

I find you suspicious because you said "Yay, roleplay!" even though we aren't really roleplaying. We're using false identities, but these identities aren't known to us in any way. We have no basis of a character to imitate.

I find Teal suspicious because they would rather interact with the DJ than their fellow guests. This could be to avoid the glare of suspicion.

I also would like to know what is going on with Yellow's 'confirm the sample role PM'. On second thought, I may not want to know. It doesn't seem game-related or important. I don't find Yellow suspicious for this though.

Evening, my fellow Masqueraders, do forgive my late arrival!

I do not necessarily endorse the opinions or reads of the previous guest with the blue mask.
