The Hippocratic Oath (The Rules)

General Rules

• • Remember that this is a game. Please enjoy yourself! =)
    
  • Do not quote any PMs sent to you by me. This includes your role pm or any additional PMs I may send you. Doing so will automatically get you mod-killed. Mod-kills will automatically end the day. Period.
    
  • Please keep all conversation within the thread unless your role PM specifies otherwise. If I find out that chatting is going on outside of the thread, you will be mod-killed.
    
  • If you have any questions about the game, please feel free to PM me.
    
  • Please confirm your role to me via PM.
    
  • No invisible text may be used within the thread. If you have editing abilities, you may not edit your posts.

Voting, Lynching, and Death

• • Votes should be cast using the following format –
    Vote: Person X
    . I will not count votes that are not
    bolded
    . If you choose to change your vote, please
    Unvote
    first and then
    Vote
    again. Again, I will not count switches in votes unless an
    unvote
    is used first.
    
  • Lynching will require a majority of votes. You may
    Vote: No Lynch
    if you decide that you do not want to lynch during the day. No Lynching will also require a majority of votes. Once the number of votes reaches the number required for a lynch to occur, that decision is final. Any subsequent unvotes will not be counted. You may feel free to converse during this period (called Twilight) until the thread is locked.
    
  • Important: If you get killed or are lynched, you are dead. You may not post anything afterwards. Not even a “Bah!” post. Srsly. Save it for post-game discussion.
    
  • At deadline, the person with the most votes will be the day's lynch. In case of a tie, the person who reached the tied number first will be the day's lynch.

Activity

• • I expect everyone to post regularly. If I see that a player has not posted for longer than a 72 hour time period and the player has not notified me about this, I will prod said player. If the person fails to pick up his her/prod within 48 hours of the prod, that player will be replaced. If you are prodded more than three times, you will be replaced (negotiable). If you are prodded, you must respond to the prod in-thread.
    
  • Treat this game as a commitment and be courteous to your fellow players. I find that this is the best way for everyone to enjoy the game. Thanks. =)
    
  • Each day will automatically have a set deadline of three (3) weeks. In special circumstances, I may extend the deadline at the request of the players or my own discretion.

Golden Rule Reiterated

• • Again, remember to have fun! =D

Ze Set-Up

This Open Game will be using the following set-up:

• 7 Vanilla Townies
  
• 1 Hider
  
• 1 Weak Doctor
  
• 3 Mafia Goons

A special note about the Hider: If the Hider hides behind the Weak Doctor while the Weak Doctor attempts to protect/investigate scum, the Hider will survive while the Weak Doctor dies.

The following are the sample role PMs that will be used in this game:

Town-aligned Players

Weak Doctor

Flavor

:
- You are Dr. Good, a local physician in the town of Lethe who serves and treats patients who enter your private clinic. On January 4th in the year 2012, you realized that your normal, typical day of treating patients and serving the common good went slightly awry when a three-man group of cyborg mafiates entered your clinic and threatened to kill the residents of the clinic during the night! Unfortunately, they’ve disguised themselves well to match the appearance of all of the other patients in your clinic. Still, you and patients must stick together and try to stop them from wreaking havoc!

Role abilities

:
- You may choose to protect one player each night.
- If that player is targeted for a night-kill, he or she will survive the night-kill as opposed to dying off the next day.
- There is, however, a small catch: if you choose to protect someone who is a mafiate, he or she will kill you during the night!
- You will only survive through the night if you protect someone of town alignment and are not targeted by a night-kill yourself, of course.

Win Condition

:
- You win when all threats to the clinic are eliminated and at least one innocent is alive at game’s end.

Hider

Flavor

:
- You are Patient X, a patient who is absolutely terrified of the dark. On January 4th of 2012, you realized it was time for your physical so you headed down to the local clinic. Upon your arrival, you realized that something strange was going on. Dr. Good was informing his patients that a group of cyborg mafiates was in the clinic, and he needed everyone’s help to root them out and eliminate them!

Role abilities

:
- Since you’re afraid of the dark, during the night phase you may choose to hide with any player of your choosing!
- If the player you hide with is pro-town and you are targeted for a night-kill, you will be protected from any night-kills that night.
- If the player you hide with is targeted for a night-kill, you will die along with him or her.
- If the player you hide with is mafia, you will be killed.
- If you hide with the Weak Doctor while he or she protects a mafiate, he or she will die as per usual but you will remain alive even if you are targeted by the Mafia for an NK.

Win Condition

:
- You win when all threats to the clinic are eliminated and at least one innocent is alive at game’s end.

Townie

Flavor

:
- You are just your average patient in Dr. Good’s clinic. On January 4th of 2012, you went to the clinic for a regular check-up only to learn that the clinic had been overtaken by a three-man group of cyborg mafiates! Now you have vowed to help Dr. Good and the other patients overthrow the mafiates before they wreak havoc in the clinic!

Role abilities

:
- All that you have is your voice, wits, and power to vote. These are still very strong weapons to have so use them well and use them wisely!

Win Condition

:
- You win when all threats to the clinic are eliminated and at least one innocent is alive at game’s end.

Mafia-Aligned Players

Mafia Goon

Flavor

:
- You are a cyborg mafiate. Along with your fellow cyborgs XXXXXX and YYYYYY, you have decided to overrun Dr. Good’s clinic to try and obtain a serum that can help your cyborg population become invincible so that you could rule the Earth! You thought this would be a walk in the park but it turns out that Dr. Good and his patients are ready and willing to put up a fight!

Role abilities

:
- Every night, you and your mafiates talk with one another.
- Your group must decide on a night-kill once per night.
- One of you should submit the choice to me by naming the target in a private message.

Win Condition

:
- You win when any combination of you, XXXX, and YYYY are the only players alive or nothing can prevent the same.

Role PMs are now out. Mafia may talk privately during pre-game. The confirmation phase and pre-game phase will last for as little as 24 hours or as long as 72 hours depending on the length of time it takes for all signed up players to confirm. Please confirm ASAP. Thanks!

[Incognito]

I made a couple of mistakes while writing the Hider role PM which I have corrected now. I am still awaiting confirmation from Clausewitz whose role PM is still sitting in my outbox. If he does not confirm by tomorrow, I will begin the game and find a replacement for him. Thanks for your patience!

[Incognito]

Clausewitz hasn't opened his role PM, so I will be finding a replacement for him. Otherwise, let's get this game started.

With 12 alive, it takes 7 to lynch!

Your Day 1 deadline is set for

Monday, January 19th at 7 P.M. EST.

Good luck and have fun!

[roflcopter]

woohoo

vote: korts

, you know why

fos: caboose

, you might not know why

[Incognito]

Netlava replaces in for Clausewitz effective immediately. Thanks, Netlava!

[Netlava]

Original Roll String: 1d12

1 12-Sided Dice: (4) = 4

[GIEFF]

Glad to see this started!

Rofl, I don't know why you voted for korts, can you explain?

Also, why so lurky korts and caboose? You haven't said a word since you got voted/fos'd by rofl.

[Netlava]

Vote: Gamma

[sekinj]

hi guys.

[popsofctown]

Glad to see this started!

Rofl, I don't know why you voted for korts, can you explain?

Also, why so lurky korts and caboose? You haven't said a word since you got voted/fos'd by rofl.

Lol... you expected their response within 17 minutes?!?!

i second the request for an explanation from Rofl. That's not a challenge, but i'm generally from the camp that thinks meta info is very helpful so i'd like to hear what he knows

[roflcopter]

its a random vote. i random vote korts in every game we play together, because he has an alarmingly high rate of being scum when i'm in the game. almost 100%.

[Caboose]

hi guys.

Post #1 with no random vote?

Vote: sekinj

Die scum die

Glad to see this started!

Rofl, I don't know why you voted for korts, can you explain?

Also, why so lurky korts and caboose? You haven't said a word since you got voted/fos'd by rofl.

I hope this is sarcasm.

[BlakAdder]

vote: GIEFF

Why so inquisitive?

[ryan2754]

I agree about Sekinj. Just saying hi in a game like this isn't very effective.

GIEFF, I can't think to believe you are serious about your comments...

ROFL, if you "random vote" someone every game you play, that doesn't seem very "random."

Of the three, GIEFF's saying people are quiet after 17 minutes of being accuses is sketchy.

Vote: GIEFF

[BlakAdder]

BTW, just to clarify, my vote was mostly random. Only slightly serious.

[Badguy]

Glad to get this started.

Vote Caboose.

Because I just had a bad string if games in halo 3.

[GIEFF]

@ Caboose: Yes, of course I was being sarcastic. Accusing someone of lurking in the third post of the game is ridiculous. I thought this would be clear.

@ ryan: "Random" voting is standard practice, and just about every game starts that way. Without it, it's difficult to transition into the real game because there is no content to build on. Random voting is good for testing reactions and trying to find something concrete to latch onto to transition into the "real" part of the game.

[Korts]

its a random vote. i random vote korts in every game we play together, because he has an alarmingly high rate of being scum when i'm in the game. almost 100%.

Every single one except for The New C9 so far of our finished games, but rofl replaced out of that one.

So yeah.

vote: Netlava

The dice are a lie!

[EsoMonty]

vote: ryan2754

He is last on the list and therefore must be guilty!

OOooOOh.
I've found scum then!

vote: Korts

.... gambler's fallacy, what's that? go away!!

[Badguy]

Unvote, Vote Gamma.

Still hasn't posted anything... lurker much?

[Netlava]

First person to vote me in random tends to be scum in past games. So I'm suspicious of Korts.
