Ruleset


These rules were developed by obtaining a single length of rail, putting RedCoyote's ruleset on a train going west, the BaM ruleset on a train going east, and then tastefully arranging the wreckage.

Since everyone loves skimming, rules are in roughly descending order of importance.

First, a big happy thank you to:
Sotty7, who has all of the QT links and role PM's, and will serve as back-up mod in the unlikely event of my absence. Vi, for her excellent modding guide that I've referred to repeatedly while setting this game up. Herodotus, for nominating this setup in the Open Setup ideas thread. Adel, whose “Aldus” open setup idea was the original inspiration for Rusty Guillotine mafia. And finally, all of you wonderful people, for indulging me as I try something new.

The setup is completely open:
The setup is somewhat complex, but it is open. I will answer any set-up questions asked via PM or in thread. Quoting any PM from me is forbidden, so it's generally better to ask in thread. Please don't hesitate to ask questions!

Play to your win condition:
I want you all to have fun, but you must always be trying to secure a win for your faction. This is especially important with the guillotine aspect of the game. Even when on guillotine, you can and must attempt to steer the game in a way favorable to your faction.

The flavor is meaningless:
I've written a lot of flavor for this game, because I enjoy writing flavor and (I hope) some people enjoy reading it. This is for entertainment purposes only; this is an open game, after all. To stress the division between flavor and gameplay, all flavor will be
purple
and in
tags.
You have my guarantee that you can ignore anything I post that is purple in area tags with absolutely no negative repercussions.


Placing on guillotine:
A majority of votes will immediately place a player on guillotine, as normal. If no majority has been reached by the deadline, the player with the most votes on them will be placed on guillotine, with seniority of the most recent vote breaking ties. If no votes have been cast all Day, a random player will be placed on guillotine. I will say each vote count who would currently be placed on guillotine if there are no new votes until deadline.

First rule about ongoing games:
Don't talk about my game anywhere else, and don't talk about other ongoing games here. ESPECIALLY don't share the QT links with anyone. I don't want to modkill but I want the integrity of this game compromised
even less
.

Mistakes:
Everyone makes them, myself included. Call out vote count mistakes with a bolded note in thread.
All other mistakes should be pointed out discreetly via PM.


Activity:
I will prod a player after 48 hours of inactivity. (Saturday hours don't count; go party!) Prods can only be 'picked up' by actually posting in thread – a response to me will not cut it. Players will be replaced upon receiving their third prod, or if they take more than 24 hours to respond to a prod. Players are also free to request replacement at any time. Remember,
you are still expected to remain active while on guillotine.
Don't make me replace someone in with a blade over their head. (Also, the prod checking will only be done once a day, so there might be up to 24 hours of imprecision.)

Kills:
I will accept kills that are either bolded in the scum QT, or sent via PM. If I receive multiple kill orders, I will use the most recent one. You can only submit a kill order you yourself are carrying out. If I receive no kill orders all night, I will chose a random scum player to kill a random town player,
superseding whatever night action that player sent in.


Deadlines:
Deadlines will be three weeks for Day One, and two weeks for each subsequent Day. I may extend this in some circumstances, though “we all decided to lurk and flake” is not one of them. Rest assured that any significant site downtime
will
merit a deadline extension. Nights will be 48 hours from when I post the lynch scene. In all cases, I will have those nifty timeanddate.com countdowns so there's no ambiguity.

Votes:
Votes must be
bold
, and be on the start of a new line. A vote inside a paragraph doesn't count. Unvotes are nice but not necessary. Don't play 'vote tricks' – whether you voted for someone or not is ultimately for me to decide, not you. ;)

New Vote Rule Added 3/5/2011:
I will not end the day if the number of votes stated in the last VC + the number of additional votes is not great enough to lynch - I won't penalize the town for a mod error.

My color:
is
blue
. Don't use it. Also, no invisible/small text, and no quoting the mods PM's.

Bah?
: No bah. When you die, you're dead. There will be a dead QT for you to hang out in though!

Twilight:
Standard site interpretation. If a majority is ever reached, it's twilight. Anyone can talk, including the about-to-die person, but all votes after the hammer don't count.

Setup:


Special Lynch MechanicWhen a majority is reached on someone (or a plurality at deadline), the mod will announce such and the day will end. However, instead of being lynched, that player is on guillotine. An on guillotine player cannot be nightkilled or take any actions (though the Redeemed Soul's ability will still trigger). They still can vote the next day, and they are counted for determining the to-lynch threshold. The on-guillotine player is killed when a new player is put on guillotine the next day, at which point their alignment is revealed as normal. You cannot no-lynch or no-kill.


Spoiler: Unflavored Role PM's
8 players will receive this role PM:

Vanilla TownieYou're just a normal townie caught up in all this. Your only weapon is your vote – use it effectively to kill the scum invading your fair home.

Even if you are mistakenly mislynched, don't give up – you can help catch the scum even while marked for death!

You win when two scum are dead and the third is on-guillotine.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One player will receive this role PM:

Town TrackerBy day, you're a normal townie, using your vote to try to kill the scum. At night, though, you become a master of espionage. You may choose one target, and at the end of night, you will receive a PM telling you either "X has targeted no one tonight" or “X has targeted Y tonight.” Your sanity is guaranteed. If you are roleblocked, you will be told “X has targeted no one tonight”.

Even if you are mistakenly mislynched, don't give up – you can help catch the scum even while marked for death!

You win when two scum are dead and the third is on-guillotine.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One player will receive this role PM:

Town Redeemed SoulMost of the time, you're a normal townie, using your vote to try to kill the scum. However, if you are placed on guillotine, your towniness will make itself evident, and you will be confirmed as town the morning after you're placed on guillotine. It is impossible for anyone to be placed “off-guillotine”, but you get one day as confirmed town. Note that if the Mafia Lengthy Roleblocker targets you the night after you're placed on guillotine, you will NOT be confirmed as town the next morning.

Even if you are mistakenly mislynched, don't give up – you can help catch the scum even while marked for death! Remember, the entire point of your role is to be more effective while on guillotine.

You win when two scum are dead and the third is on-guillotine.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One player will receive this role PM:

Town One-Shot Impatient VigilanteIn most respects, you're a normal townie, using your vote to try to kill the scum. However, at one point during any day, you may PM the moderator saying you'd like to take your shot. The player who is on guillotine will be killed, they will flip, the lynch threshold will be lowered by 1, and the day will proceed as normal. This shot will not be attributable to you in any way, though you are obviously allowed to claim before you take the shot. Note that if the Mafia Lengthy Roleblocker targets you at night, you will be unable to use this ability the subsequent day. If you are blocked, you will be informed at the end of the Night.

Even if you are mistakenly mislynched, don't give up – you can help catch the scum even while marked for death!

You win when two scum are dead and the third is on-guillotine.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One player will receive this role PM:

Mafia GoonYou are a Mafia Goon, and along with Y and Z, you are trying to bring this town to its knees.

You can talk with Y and Z every night in your Quicktopic, located at link. Note that, if you are on-guillotine, you are still allowed to talk to your scumbuddies that night.

Every night, you may kill by submitting a kill action to the moderator. To do so, simply state that you'd like to kill whoever in your Quicktopic or by PM to the moderator. The most recent kill submission by anyone will be the one that goes through at the end of the night.

If the town does catch you, though, don't give up – you have one more day to try to confuse them and hinder their progress.

You win when there are as many or more living Mafia as there are living non-Mafia or if nothing can prevent the same. (Someone on guillotine is still alive.)

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One player will receive this role PM:

Mafia RolecopYou are a Mafia Rolecop, and along with X and Z, you are trying to bring this town to its knees.

You can talk with X and Z every night in your Quicktopic, located at link. Note that, if you are on-guillotine, you are still allowed to talk to your scumbuddies that night.

Every night, you may kill by submitting a kill action to the moderator. To do so, simply state that you'd like to kill whoever in your Quicktopic or by PM to the moderator. The most recent kill submission by anyone will be the one that goes through at the end of the night.

Instead of killing, you can use your Rolecop ability. To do so, simply state that you'd like to investigate whoever in your Quicktopic or by PM to the moderator. At the end of the Night, you will learn their role name.

If the town does catch you, though, don't give up – you have one more day to try to confuse them and hinder their progress.

You win when there are as many or more living Mafia as there are living non-Mafia or if nothing can prevent the same. (Someone on guillotine is still alive.)

Spoiler: Flavored Role PMs
Eight people will receive this role PM:

TownspersonYou're just a normal townsperson caught completely by surprise by the news of the Drekava invasion.

Your only weapon is your vote – use it effectively to kill the scum invading your fair home.

Even if you are mistakenly mislynched, don't give up – you can help catch the scum even while marked for death!

You win when two Drekava are dead and the third is on-guillotine.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One person will receive this role PM:

Aria Tor, the TrackerYou are Aria Tor, the Tracker.

You've spent most of your life as a huntress, taking down larger animals for the village to eat. However, once you became skilled in the art of shadowing animals silently, you realized it applied equally well to people.

By day, you can use your vote to hunt down the Drekava in your town. Each night, you may select someone to track. If they visit someone else at night, you will learn who it is they visited. Note that if you are Hexed, you will not know such – you will simply be told they targeted no one, regardless of the truth.

Even if you are mistakenly mislynched, don't give up – you can help catch the scum even while marked for death!

You win when two Drekava are dead and the third is on-guillotine.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One person will receive this role PM:

Sylwar Karios, the Redeemed SoulYou are Sylwar Kairos, the Redeemed Soul.

You are the descendent of a celestial being. Your grandmother was an angel, and the blood still flows through you. However, your parents decided not to tell you the truth, hoping that you would never need to know that you were on one side of a great war. You don't know how to prove your heritage; but on the Lancrel Guillotine, it will reveal itself.

By day, you vote as normal. However, if you are placed on Guillotine, it will be made known the next morning that you are not a Drekava. Note that if you are Hexed the night you are placed on guillotine, the Hex will obscure this effect and you will not be confirmed as a non-Drekava.

Even if you are mistakenly mislynched, don't give up – you can help catch the scum even while marked for death!

You win when two Drekava are dead and the third is on-guillotine.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One person will receive this role PM:

Natalie Foroes, the InheritorYou are Natalie Foroes, the Inheritor.

Unlike the other people in the town, you were prepared for the Drekava. Your father was a veteran of the Black Times, and unlike most of those survivors, he refused to let you grow up unaware of the danger. Unfortunately, he has passed away, but he left behind his considerable knowledge – and a single, enchanted arrow.

By day, you vote as normal. However, once during the game, during any day from Day 2 onward, you may fire the arrow . This will immediately kill the person who is currently on-guillotine, even if they are Drekava – this is a powerful arrow that can kill even a Drekava in their mortal form. The shot will not be attributed to you, though you can claim the shot if you wish. Note that if you are Hexed, you will not be able to fire your arrow the following Day.

Firing this arrow will also make it take one vote fewer to immediately end the day for the rest of the day.

Even if you are mistakenly mislynched, don't give up – you can help catch the scum even while marked for death!

You win when two Drekava are dead and the third is on-guillotine.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One person will receive this role PM:

Kroseus, the Drekava FledglingYou are Kroseus, the Drekava Fledgling.

You have only been in existence for half a day, but already you are fully developed and dangerous. Such is the nature of the Drekava. Your creation is the impetus that has forced the final confrontation between the town and the Drekava. In time, you will find your specific niche, but for now, you only have your natural ability to kill.

You can speak with Myeus (X) and Typheus (Y) at the Quicktopic [here]. You may only do this at night, but you can speak here even the night you are on-guillotine.

Each night, you may covertly kill a single member of the town.

You win when there are as many or more living Drekava as there are living non-Drekava or if nothing can prevent the same. (Someone on guillotine is still alive.)

If the town does catch you, though, don't give up – you have one more day to try to confuse them and hinder their progress.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One person will receive this role PM:

Myeus, the Drekava AgentYou are Myeus, the Drekava Agent.

For years, you've been manipulating Tranvar from behind the scenes. You brought Typheus and Kroseus into the world, and now you're ready to start your plans in earnest. Tranvar is one of the oldest villages in the area - with them out of the way, very few survivors of the Black Times will be alive to spread the warning as the invasion begins anew.

You can speak with Typheus (Y) and Kroseus (Z) at the Quicktopic [here]. You may only do this at night, but you can speak here even the night you are on-guillotine.

Each night, you may covertly kill a single member of the town.

As a Drekava Agent, instead of killing, you can instead infiltrate the house of a single townsperson and investigate them. You will learn their role name at the end of the night.

You win when there are as many or more living Drekava as there are living non-Drekava or if nothing can prevent the same. (Someone on guillotine is still alive.)

If the town does catch you, though, don't give up – you have one more day to try to confuse them and hinder their progress.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!


One person will receive this role PM:

Typheus, the Drekava HexerYou are Typheus, the Drekava Hexer.

Myeus spawned you about a year ago. The ritual was performed on a vagrant that no one missed, and since then, he has been training you. You have developed a knack for hexing people into confusion. And, of course, you still have your claws.

You can speak with Myeus (X) and Kroseus (Z) at the Quicktopic [here]. You may only do this at night, but you can speak here even the night you are on-guillotine.

Each night, you may covertly kill a single member of the town.

As a Drekava Hexer, instead of killing, you may hex a single target. This will disable any night abilities they may have, and prevent them from using abilities the subsequent day (this includes the Redeemed Soul's confirmation.)

You win when there are as many or more living Drekava as there are living non-Drekava or if nothing can prevent the same. (Someone on guillotine is still alive.)

If the town does catch you, though, don't give up – you have one more day to try to confuse them and hinder their progress.

Please confirm by responding to this PM with the name of your role. Good luck!

Sending out Role PMs now. Confirm via PM. (There is a specific way you must confirm; read the whole thing!). The names in the "Still Surviving" section will be
bolded
as they are confirmed. I will unlock the thread when 12/14 people have confirmed.

The Scum/Drekava Win Condition has been slightly amended.

It was:
You win when only Drekava compose the town, or if nothing can prevent the same.
It is now:
You win when there are as many or more living Drekava as there are living non-Drekava or if nothing can prevent the same. (Someone on guillotine is still alive.)
This change will likely have no effect, and was implemented due to an odd consequence of the impatient vigilante shooting in LYLO. Imagine one townie on guillotine, and a living Drekava and living Impatient Vigilante, both voting for each other (with the townie abstaining). With the previous win condition, if the Impatient Vigilante had fired in that situation, the winner would have been the first one to vote (most senior last vote also breaks ties for two tied lynches after an Impatient Vig shot.) That answer was unsatisfying to me; mafia shouldn't be about the first one to log on. With the new win condition, if the Impatient Vigilante had fired in that situation, the winner would be the Drekava.

Because every Day besides D1 will have an odd number of players (forced lynches and kills), this change is ONLY relevant in specific situations with the Impatient Vigilante. If the Impatient Vigilante never fires, the two win conditions are synonymous.

Tranvar had a village square, as most villages do. It was usually just a place where people socialized between chores. It was rare to see more than a few people there at one time, but now the entire village had turned out.

In the center stood fourteen people. They were all able-bodied, but had little else in common. The crowd standing around them was composed of the very young, the very old, and Mitch Connerry, who had lost his arm to infection some years ago.

There was a small Speaker's Stage, with three people on it. One of them was Roland Manistro, the village elder. The other two were young Kara, and old Ilwar, both dead on the ground when yesterday they had been standing.

The two bodies had little in common. One was a little girl, eyes frozen in horrified shock and a sheet mercifully covering what remained of her ruptured chest. The other was an old man, hands serenely folded over his chest, and with only a thin red line on his neck indicating his cause of death.

Two of three struck down; and yet Roland seemed to stand three times as high. He had been well-known as the kindly old man who wandered the village and spread good cheer. But now, his face has transformed from a warm smile to an iron mask of determination. The words marched off his lips like soldiers as he spoke.

“Kara was found dead this morning. Her chest had burst open. The Drekava are upon us once more.”

The silence was heavy with painful memories. It had been almost forty years. There were people who were now fathers who had never known the Black Times. The fourteen in the center were all too young to know, but the older crowd – they remembered. A burst open chest only meant one thing.

An old woman, Sherry Rhav, raised her voice. “And what happened to Ilwar?”

Roland recoiled as if struck, and had to pause before speaking. “When Kara's parents showed us her body...we both knew what it meant. It's possible, using certain rituals, to see what she saw in her final moments. We needed to, to understand the threat. But the old powers...they have a cost.”

“You killed him?”

“He killed himself. And in doing so, he fed his power to me. We had both sworn off magick when the Black Times ended, but with Ilwar's sacrifice, I was a Magister once more. I saw the true face of the threat.

There are three Drekava in this town. Myeus is the oldest, a Drekava Agent skilled in stealth and guile. Typheus is a Hexer who can addle your mind while you sleep. And Kroseus...Kroseus is a new Drekava, born last night as they used Kara's life to fuel their sick ritual.”

One of the fourteen tentatively raised their hand. “You said...in this town?”

Roland sighed and turned to face them. “Yes. In this town. They wear human faces and by day masquerade as one of us. But the disguise isn't perfect.”

“They cann'ot appear too weak,” Sherry finished. “They are strong beasts, and if they take on too weak of a form, it won't work at all.”

The ponderous solemnity of the crowd began to creep upon the fourteen as well. Suddenly, it was becoming clear why this division had been ordered.

“You understand now?” Roland sighed. “Fourteen of you stand before me. Three of you are Myeus, Typheus, and Kroseus.

The fourteen, who had been standing close together, suddenly burst apart as they appraised each other with wild eyes.

“Be still!” Roland yelled. “There will no brawling. If a Drekava is killed in a man-form, it will simply take another.”

“Then how do we kill them?” another one of the fourteen cried.

A lifetime of pain and fear flickered upon Roland's face. “Follow me.” He stepped off the stage. “Sherry, please give the bodies a proper burial.”

“Of course. And then...I think then, I won't be following you.” The crowd nodded silent assent.

“I understand.”

Roland began walking to the outskirts of town, followed by the fourteen, still sneaking fearful glances among themselves.

Sherry began to cry. “King in heaven preserve us, the Black Times are upon us again...”

<>

The old machine, they had always called it. Sure, their parents had a strange fear of it, but that didn't stop the children from daring each other to touch it. It had been overgrown by vines and, for as long as any of the fourteen could remember, had been a simple fixture of the village.

There were no more vines. A small, hunched over man had cleaned off the machine and was busily polishing it, and the fears of their fathers become more apparent. The machine had two long tables, each fitted with straps. Above one table, a guillotine blade sat ominously. Above the other, there was an abnormally large spike.

The small man turned away from his labor. “'S ready, lord.”

“Thank you, Boggart.”

Roland looked at each of the fourteen in turn. “This is, as far as we know, the only way to kill a Drekava in human form. The Lancrel Guillotine. Boggart knows how to operate it. I leave it to you to find the Drekava in your ranks.

If a majority cannot be reached, you must still pick someone. The Lancrel Guillotine...” and again, the shadow of the Black Times darkened his face. “Well. Just pick someone.

I've warded the entire border of the town. The Drekava won't be able to leave of their own volition until they abandon their human forms. Their only chance is to get enough of you killed on the guillotine that they can shed their false skins and finish the rest of you off. You must kill them first.

And now, I take my leave.”

Roland walked away, taking care not to make eye contact with any of the fourteen. He had put forward an impossible charge, a conflict they had no choice but to see through. Now it was just the fourteen, milling around hesitantly; Boggart, idly polishing the Guillotine; and the dread contraption itself, looming, snarling,
waiting.


It is Day One. With 14 alive, it takes 8 votes to end the day.

Deadline is on Feburary 27th, 2011, at 11:00 PM central time.

No, they do not. I don't know where crypto drew that, but you definitely do vote as normal the day you're on guillotine. Note that this "bumps LYLO up a day", in effect. If there are 9 living players total and three of them are scum with a non-scum on guillotine, and they place a townie on guillotine that day, I would then call the game for the scum.

@mod: Would a blocked vig shot just go wasted or count as not executed and bullet preserved?
The Impatient Vigilante will be informed via PM at the start of the Day if they were roleblocked the previous Night. (This is also true for the Redeemed Soul; though the fact would be obvious for them anyway.)

@mod: since town wins with 2 scum dead & one on the guillotine; that means if we lynch 2 scum and have a 3rd scum on guillotine the game will immediately end without us having to play out that next day while the 3rd scum is already gonna die, right?

Unvoting and voting for the same person in one post DOES clear your wagon seniority. Think carefully before casting joke votes.

Are you perhaps on mafSepia? There were just some changes that make mafSilver look quite a bit nicer, but a quick switch to sepia revealed some icon sizing issues. You may want to switch to mafSilver for the time being.

Percy has not picked up his prod and is being replaced. zoraster has been prodded.

On a general note, I'm switching from VC-based counting to the new activity checker. This should hopefully lead to more timely prods. It also means there's nothing significant about my evening vote count.

Arguing over who to kill –
who to kill.
It was a frightening and alien concept. This was a small, close-knit village. There were no strangers. To think that three of them were Drekava was unthinkable.

Paranoia quickly flared up. Only three of the assembled were Drekava, but it seemed that everyone had suspected everyone else at one point or another. Every nervous tic was scrupulously analyzed. For a while, it seemed like there would never be consensus.

But as the day dragged on, eventually the suspicion settled upon only a few. Then two. And finally, Simenon alone was singled out from the crowd. He, it was decided, was one of the Drekava.

Thirteen pairs of arms dragged Simenon to the guillotine and forcefully restrained him. Secured in place by a dozen straps, Simenon was trapped under the guillotine blade, still pleading for survival.

Boggart silently walked to the middle of the device, where a large arch connected the two tables of the Guillotine. He produced a key from his grubby pocket and slipped it in to a nigh-invisible keyhole. With a pronounced click, a small needle extended from the arch.

“Bugger, do I hate this part,” he muttered. Boggart rolled up his sleeve, revealing an arm covered in scars. “Lesse...” Gritting his teeth, he grabbed his arm and plunged it into the needle. There was a dreadful slurp, and the straps fastened even tighter of their own accord.

“You can all go to your homes now. Nothin's opening those straps.”

It was an anti-climatic send-off, after the drama of the vote. One person timidly muttered, “isn't he going to die...?”

“It takes moonlight to prime the spike, as you should – oh, you're virgins to the Iron Lady, yeah. Well,” he sighed, “go home. Enjoy the last night where you don't know how this works.”

Keyed up on adrenaline, sleep did not come easily for any of the thirteen. Especially knowing that, even if they had picked correctly, two Drekava would still be wandering the town freely...


Simenon - Placed on Guillotine Day One.


Deadline for night actions is Februrary 26th, 2011, at 2PM Central time.

It was cold and overcast as they silently shambled back to the guillotine. The hot passion of last night had been replaced with a dull apathy. Perhaps Simenon was Drekava; perhaps he wasn't. Either way, he looked so damn pathetic that no one could muster any hate for him. His eyes were unfocused and dried blood caked his ankles and wrists where the straps still cruelly dug in. Normally, they would spare at least a soft hello, but now, seeing him, they couldn't bear to meet his eyes.

The air was heavy with the wish – please, let him be Drekava.

Boggart broke the silence. “One man on the guillotine. Twelve standing before me. I don't know which one of you blokes it is, but someone is absent.”

Indeed, there was one missing. Ythill. Only one person needed to go looking for him, but they all jumped at the chance. Better to be walking around in the village they had grown up in, instead of this small clearing with the machine and the condemned man.

He was not in his room, he was not anywhere in the village. It was remembered that he was fond of hunting, and so they dutifully fanned out in the forest and looked.

They found him there after a few hours of searching. He was carefully concealed in a bush. His entire torso had been torn apart, and his face was frozen into a screaming visage. It was plain to see he was killed by a Drekava. Sadly, it was also plain to see that he had been tracking them down. He had been the only one with the skill to silently stalk the Drekava, but last night, he had been the prey.

The only flicker of hope in the night, the only one among them who could face the beasts at their time, on their terms, and now he was dead.

Morning had turned to afternoon, and the sun was free from the veil of clouds. This did little to lighten their spirits. And after seeing that corpse, when all they wanted to do was sleep the grief away, they still had to face that damn guillotine.


Ythill, the
Town Tracker
, Killed Night One.


It is Day Two. With 13 alive, it takes 7 to end the day.

No one saw exactly who had fired the arrow. It flew from a cluster of people, unerringly flying straight toward Simenon.

Normal weapons won't work on a Drekava in human form...


But it was clear that this was no normal weapon. As it whizzed through the air, an amethyst glow danced around the arrow head. The air was charged with the smell of lightning.

It didn't embed itself in Simenon. Instead, it passed
through
him, moving his body aside like a broom through dust. He didn't have time to scream.

Around the guillotine, there was a large circle of blood. On the guillotine, nothing but a pile of ash, where seconds ago Simenon had laid.

Boggart broke the silence. “A Lilac weapon...cor, thought we'd seen the end of those.” He stirred up the ashes with his finger. “Wasted shot, though. Only a human would leave ashes. Drekava corpses don't stay around in our world. Without their power to keep their matter together, our reality tears them apart.”

He shrugged his shoulders. “Still, good for an answer, I guess.”


Simenon has been killed by the Impatient Vigilante. He was a
Vanilla Townie.


It will take one less vote to end the day today.

I will remind you all of this clause of my ruleset:
Votes: Votes must be bold, and
be on the start of a new line. A vote inside a paragraph doesn't count.
Unvotes are nice but not necessary. Don't play 'vote tricks' – whether you voted for someone or not is ultimately for me to decide, not you. ;)
VV's vote was not the start of a new line, and thus, did not count.

Additionally, even if it had been a valid vote, I will not end the day if the number of votes stated in the last VC + the number of additional votes is not great enough to lynch - I won't penalize the town for a mod error.

My vote wasn't meant to be a trick vote, but it apparently fooled everyone but AGM. I really question the wisdom of a rule set that actively discourages voting gambits, while passively encouraging them.
The point of my ruleset on voting is threefold:
1. Never punish the players for a moderator error.
2. Make sure players cast votes that I can see (I did in fact miss your vote on AGM, because I only look on new lines for votes.)
3. Prevent vote gambits (such as "V0te: X) and later claiming that it is invalid.

Normally, I follow the rule, if it looks like a vote, it's a vote. Votes that don't start lines are the only explicit exception. Perhaps this is "passively encouraging" vote gambits, but the alternative is to force myself to dissect walls and see if they contain votes.

As the day dragged on, Boggart was busy cleaning off the guillotine in preparation for the next victim. Simenon's death had left a considerable mess. It was strange, in a way, that a man so closely tied with the machine of death would be so fastidious.

The townspeople cut it extremely fine. The sun was almost below the horizon, and yet two candidates stood before the guillotine. Both of them were brought to within an inch of the ultimate fate. Finally, with no more time to debate, it was Shadow Dancer who was ultimately placed beneath the looming blade.

“Never did need to guillotine ol'wossname, so the spike is still primed. Thank the King in Heaven for that.” Boggart rubbed his forearm. There was an ugly welt where the needle had stabbed him yesterday.

The villagers quickly hurried back to their homes. After what had happened to Ythill, no one wanted to be out at night.


Shadow Dancer - Placed on Guillotine Night Two.


Deadline for night actions is March 14, 2011, at 2PM Central time.

They knew better than to head straight to the guillotine the next morning. Ten of them in the village square, Shadow Dancer on the guillotine...yes, one person was missing. GlaDOS.

No scrounging around in the forest was needed. She was in her home, laying in bed. At least the Drekava had taken her sleeping, and her eyes were mercifully closed. Ythill's terrified face still haunted all of their dreams.

Under her arm, they found a small, leatherbound journal. The corners were dog-eared and the binding was soft. It began:


My darling Natalie:

If you're reading this, then I have either died or decided you're mature enough to learn the truth.

The Drekava are no fairy tale. We lived through the Black Times. The older people in the village are veterans of the terrible war. All any of us want to do is forget...but that's irresponsible, and it's unfair to you younger people. The Drekava will find a way in. They always do. And you need to be ready.



A bit of cursory scanning confirmed that the Lilac arrow had indeed belonged to her, an heirloom from her father.

The procession glumly marched toward the guillotine. With the huntress and the interior dead, and Simenon's blood still staining the grass, it was hard to be cheerful.


GLaDOS, the
Town One-Shot Impatient Vigilante,
killed Night Two.


It is Day Three. With 11 alive, it takes 6 to end the day immediately.

Deadline is March 28th, 2011, at 5PM Central Time.

I've finally gotten around to writing flavor. If you're interested:

Here is the Vigilante kill flavor.
Here is the end of Night Two flavor.
Here is the start of Day Three flavor.

Remember, ignoring the flavor has absolutely no negative repercussions.

Concission, crypto, and Shadow Dancer have been prodded. By my activity rules, this means that Jarti, Concission, and Shadow Dancer should be replaced (Jarti has yet to pick up her prod.) However, because of the difficultly in finding three replacements for a 60+ page game, as well as the fact that I'm heading out the door right now, I'm going to give a grace period from now until later tonight when I'm back at my computer.

Jarti and Concission have just been sent PM's notifying them they have been replaced - they are not permitted to post in the thread, even if they come back before any potential replacements. However, note that I am on a roadtrip Saturday, and will not have computer access until late in the day. Even if I get offers to replace, they will not be finalized until late Saturday (unless one comes immediately tonight before I go to bed.) I won't replace Shadow Dancer. There will be
no
deadline extension, regardless of whether or not the slots are filled.

Maemuki replaces Jarti. Welcome, Maemuki!

As an aside, note that Maemuki had no input as to who she was replacing - she replaced into Jarti's slot because Jarti has been away from the thread for longer. I forgot to mention this policy in my ruleset.

On the subject of me not extending the deadline: remember that there is plurality lynching. I would probably be more amenable to deadline extension in a majority-or-no-lynch game. However, in plurality, a non-voting player does not make a lynch any less possible (because a lynch is guaranteed).

It was a long day. The deaths had hit them hard, and with no dead Drekava to show for it, morale was flagging. People began to wander away from the dread machine, unable to continue focusing on. They were called back, of course, but not without delays.

They placed cat and mouse with the setting sun, until finally someone had to be chosen. Concission was chosen. It was less than a full majority, but it was enough.

He was strapped down on the other table. Boggart grabbed the large spike that hung above and unceremoniously shoved it into Concissions chest. She screamed.

With a dreadful
slurp
, the spike lurched Concission's body upward. And again. And again. And if you looked hard enough, you could see the clumps of blood travel down the line, as the life was literally sucked out of Concission.

Out of Concission, and in to the blade. The guillotine began to crackle with the same lilac energy from the arrow that killed Simenon.

A final
slurp
, and the blade reached the tipping point and fell.The blade easily tore through Shadow Dancer's neck.

"Wait for it..." Boggart whispered.

And slowly, subtly, Shadow Dancer's body began to change. His skin ran off of his body like water, revealing a dull grey hide. Without the protective shell of the human skin, the Drekava's body quickly turned into dust and was carried away by the breeze.

"That's the merciful thing about the Guillotine. To keep their form, they need either a human shell or their lifes essence. The Lancrel Guillotine robs em of both simultaneously. We don't have to look at the bastards body."

The townspeople hurried back to the village, both for security against the night and to learn the identity of the fallen. Roland had been avoiding watching the proceedings, warweary as he was, but he was enough of a Magister still that he knew which one had died the instant it happened. It was Myeus, the Drekava Agent.

For the first time, sleep came a little easier. The most venerable and experienced of the beasts had been slain.


Shadow Dancer, the
Mafia Rolecop
, killed Day Three.
Concission placed on Guillotine Day Three.


Deadline for Night actions is Wednesday, March 30th, at 5:30 PM Central time.

The last thing they suspected to see coming from a dead body were flowers.

zoraster was not particularly difficult to find. Apparently, he had awoken in time to try to run to safety. Did he not scream? No one had heard anything of note, and yet here was zorasters mangled body laying in the dirt. And all around him grew pale purple flowers.

"Lilacs. There's a reason for it." Roland had tried to avoid the death as much as possible, but now it had come to him. "He's of Saintsblood. The same sort of heritage as the old Lilac weapons." He sighed. "The old Saints could craft those weapons, and reveal their true nature without dying for it. His powers must have been dillute, passed down through too many generations without being renewed. The old powers are leaving us."

The towns thoughts turned to Ilwar, the ex-Magister Roland had killed to restore his own magick.
And what a price we pay to bring them back...


"At least the flowers are pretty." His smile was grim. "Something has to be, these days."

The procession marched back to the guillotine, resigned to another day of horror.


zoraster, the
Town Redeemed Soul
, Killed Night Three.


It is Day Four. With 9 alive, it takes 5 to end the day.

Deadline is April 13th, 2011, at 6PM Central time.

AlmasterGM and crypto have been prodded. Fate and Maemuki are due prods very soon (remember, when using the activity overview, it must display three days absent, because I discount Saturdays.)

crypto and Maemuki have both failed to pick up their prods. However, I'm going to re-prod them (without BCC this time) and give them a little bit longer (
not 24 hours
) because I'm dead tired and not going to go through the hassle of asking for replacements until tomorrow.

Looks like it ended up being 24 hours after all.

I'm going to ask for replacements now, but given the extreme game-length,
I won't
replace the players out while I'm searching. If they can return before I confirm a replacement, I'll let them stay, because this is a single access failure instead of chronic lurking. (I would replace immediately if this was a third-prod-received situation.)

A quick PSA.

There are two big differences between this set of replacements and the last:

1.) These players have complete access failure (the prods are still in my outbox) as opposed to repeated lurking, the latter of which I dislike far more (my future activity policies will reflect this).

2.) I deliberately gave them more time due to the extreme game length, instead of following my activity policy to the letter.

Due to these factors, there
will
be a deadline extension. I'll pick an exact time when the two slots are filled. In the meantime, do not worry about deadline.

The long day had taken it's toll on everyone. People would periodically leave the group until they were called. The talk was slow and dull. There was even a point when some of them went outright silent and the sun itself seemed to stand still.

But as the sun began her descent, new livelihood found it's way into the town. They buzzed with activity and arguments. This was not a quiet trickle to the night - this was a loud roar of arguement, a sprawling conflict of words.

As the last rays of light trembled on the horizon, it was clear that one of Fate or VP Baltar was to be lynched. Chesskid was alone in casting the hammer. He chose Fate.

Fate was rushed on to the table and underneath the dread spike. He screamed as one of the frenzied villagers placed the spike in his chest.

Slurp...slurp
...

As Fate's life drained away, charging the terrible blade, someone whispered what they all knew; what they had all known for some time.

"Equinox...you're not Drekava, are you?"

She nodded sadly.

Thunk.


Her head bounced on the ground. It didn't turn to dust. No one expected it to.

The fury of their arguments forgotten, they hurried to their houses.



Equinox, the
Vanilla Townie
, killed Day Four.
Fate placed on Guillotine Day Four.



Deadline for Night actions is Thursday, April 21st, at 2:30 PM Central time.

The town had been drowning in its sad situation for so long, it was beginning to seem routine. AlmasterGM was found dead in the morning. No tears were shed; no prayers were given. Instead, the survivors (how few there were!) numbly walked to the guillotine. They said nothing. There was nothing to say.

It was too long. Too much arguing. Too many good people dead.

It was a quick decision to lynch VP. We couldn't make ourselves fight so hard, care so much, argue so passionately anymore. It was the last mistake the Drekava needed.

I'm sure they'll find me soon enough. There's only so far I can run. I'll accept my fate.

Simenon, Equinox, Fate, VP...innocent people. Innocent people we put on that damn machine. We're murderers.


The inquisitor turned the note back and forward in his hands. It was covered in dirt and blood. He had been lucky to find it at all, lying under the rotting corpse of some townsperson.

That damn machine...so, this was before the Drekava walked openly. This village had fought them The Old Way.

Fought them, and lost. The inquisitor sighed. He had seen this sight too many times over the last few months, but at least it had usually been a melee. Here, there apparently weren't enough Drekava for them to show their faces. There had been a hunt for Drekava, with the guillotine, in the old fashion.

He shivered. Not enough to show their faces? By all accounts, every other attack had been with dozens of the beasts. Was this town the epicenter of it all? Was this failure the one that tipped the balance, letting the Drekava prey on wanderers in ones and twos, bolstering their numbers?

Were these the people whose failure had sent the whole world to hell?


Fate, the
Vanilla Townie
, killed Day Five.
VP Baltar placed on guillotine Day Five.

It is no longer possible to stop a win condition from being fuffiled!

RedCoyote (Mafia Goon), Vigilante Ventriloquist (Mafia Roleblocker), and Shadow Dancer (Mafia Rolecop) have won the game!

I think we're all glad that's over! That replacement hell was awful. Thanks to those who stuck it out, and thanks to those who replaced in at that terrible bleak end. (GreyICE and Equinox in particular, I owe you two a cross-replace. Chess got his!)

As you all know, this was the debut run of Rusty Guillotine, and farside has asked that you answer these questions:
1) what players thought of the set up
2) did they feel with the delay in knowing the roles that it may not fall under the Open guidelines
3) would they play it again. If so why/or why not?
Post your answer here, and I'll compile the responses to farside and PM her. You can PM her directly if you want to say something like "not only do I hate this setup, but I actively and passionately hate its designer".

In addition to farsides questions, I'd like to hear about me as a moderator. What worked well, what didn't work well? Did you like my votecounts? Were my activity requirements too harsh and bad for the game? Other criticisms? I'm looking to mod a newbie and then a Large Theme, so if I have bad moderating practices I'd like them pointed out immediately so I can rectify them.

Thanks, and feel free to talk about whatever in addition to the questions.

Players who were just observing are free to jump in as well.

Those who would like to see the role distribution need only look at the first post.

I winced when I saw Ythill draw Tracker - he always walks around with a "nk me!" sign. Scum actually thought he was a very UNlikely tracker, but shot him N1 anyway.
3) if the town had had ANY POWER ROLE DO ANYTHING it was probably balanced. As it was, it was basically 11:3 with 2 known 'earls' who had to be shot.
Yeah, it's a shame how the PR thing shook out.
4) Tracker was just a cop with the scum having that many power roles. Lemme rephrase the scum roles a bit 'You may do X. If you do not, you investigate as town.' I strongly suggest a different investigative role, since that just really annoys.
That's by design - so the scum have to think whether or not they use all their PRs.

So, it seems the consensus is this:

Rusty Guillotine is perfectly fine as an open setup. It MAY be slightly scum favored but with the way this game played out (i.e tracker dead N1) it's worth testing again before talking about balance. However, more than that, delayed flips just aren't really that fun. This game could be run again, but only if the PLAYERS specifically want to play with delayed flips - mods shouldn't just chose it to chose it.

That sound about right for a summary?

Regarding the 14 - it's a consequence of the delayed flips, to put the town on odds from D2 on (except when the vig shoots).

The general rule is to start on odds to STAY on odds, but in this setup, you need to start on evens to land on odds.

As for more power, I'm open to ideas, but nothing that will block a kill. Otherwise there are silly interactions with the guillotine I want to avoid. There needs to be one lynch a day, one kill a night.
