Basic Theme 4 - Murder in Marlowe - Replacements Welcome!

Prozac's Basic Theme 4

Murder in Marlowe[/align]


Forgive me for the awful name...


Image


Nina and Richard Jones drive up to the 5 star hotel, looking forward to the start of their holiday. The sea in the background, a light breeze in the air, intestines hanging off the hotel roof. Wait what?!?!

Just as quickly as they arrived, they left. They had seen too much bloodshed, in their many years together. But unfortunately, for the 18 poor guests locked inside the large, slightly creepy (but well stocked) hotel. They were about to enter a game of death, betrayal, affairs, drugs, dead pigs and back up mods being mauled by badgers. (whatever that means)

FAQ


What are the basics of this game?


This game is one with no unusual mechanics, but has lots of flavour that you don't need to watch a TV show or read a comic for.

You don't need to know FA Cup History 1986, nor will you need to know about obscure Japanese Anime, nor will you need to know how to survive Badger maulings. (unless you are the backup mod)

The roles aren't new and aren't made up off the top of my head, everything here has been found in the wiki and has been played before.
The game is more than likely to be swingy, but not bastard mod, I have done my upmost to keep the game as balanced as possible.

Can I join your game?


YES!

Well, probably. I need a few things from you.
- At least 2 games on site completed.
- If you are in your first year on site, gimme a game or two for reference. So I know you can handle the pressure when the going gets tough
- No hydra's

That's it!

Wisdon of the Crowds/Mod is in effect for this game.

Spoiler: Other less important FAQ's
I see you have ran games like this before, will I need to know the previous games to be able to play in this one?


You observant cookie, you! You saw the 4! Yep I ran 4 of these in the past... don't give me shit about numbering! The main 3 are here, here and here

Wisdom of the Crowds? What's that?


Wisdom of the Crowds is a technique to ensure everyone is happy. All players within the game are allowed to PM me to say they would rather not have someone in the game. 4 votes, and that person is voted out the big brother house. Or my game.

There must be a good reason for it. I won't accept "he called me bad names" or "he threatened me with a badger mauling".

Wisdom of the Mod is my choice, there may be 3 reasons I won't let you into my game. Over-Agression, Active Lurking or Being a general Asshat (not the Team, they're awesome).

Who reviewed your game and who is your back up mod?


My reviewers were:
The beautifully talented farside22
The fantastically intelligent quadz08
The effortlessly brilliant Ether (who did not review the final setup, so probably shouldn't be in this column)
The very killable Patrick who will also serve as backup mod/badger bait.

Can anything be in the game?


I have tried to make things balanced. You will not find any bastard roles in here.

Things you won't find in my game:
Jesters
Paranoid Gun Owners
Anything which hides a role name upon death.
Or anything in that god awful list that GiF has us post about in his signup thread.

Not convinced? See my pre-ins!

I was really only interested by the possibility of 1986 FA Cup final knowledge but, fine, whatever, I'll confirm my pre-/in. I better get a 200-word-plus role PM out of this.

Had a look and happy to put you in. I hope you don't mind, I like to make sure people not long on site can handle larger games.
