Taken literally from the GIM thread, and I'm forcing Irrel to play this game so we're running this game boyos.

Korina you should mod "everyone is a cult recruiter" in mish mash
It'd be like the confusing "Everyone is a Roleblocking Serial Killer" game but way weirder


The Rules and Such

Stolen, then adapted, from Pokerface, who stole this from shaft.ed, TSQ, Mr. Stoofer, Flameaxe, Jdodge:

-01a.
Follow all site-wide rules.
-01b.
Remember, this is a game. Treat it as such, and have fun. Don't get site-banned, nor do anything that would cause you to.
00.
I, the mod, reserve the right to edit these rules at any time should something truly unexpected occur, and I will tell you when this actually happens.
01.
All votes must be made bold
. Unvoting is not required but its nice. Vote-gambiting is allowed, however, if it looks like a vote, it is one.
02.
A majority of votes is required to lynch. If there is a lynch, no matter what you do, you're still getting lynched, (sorry.)
03a.
When you're alive, do living things, like breathing. When you're dead, do dead things, like rotting, and not breathing. Don't post when you're dead, post when you're alive. You are also not dead until I say you are dead.
03b.
I'll grace you with my powers of necromancy one time after you are dead, allowing you to make one bah post.
04a.
All days have a 8 day deadline. All nights have a 2 day deadline. The thread will not lock during night given that its more fun if you post whenever. No votes are counted during the night.
04b.
Prods are handed out every 72 hours. Failure to reply within 18 hours of that will result in forced replacement.
05.
Players
must
be voted out during the day. No lynching is
not
possible. If there is no majority by EOD, whoever has the most votes will get the noose. In the event of a tie, one of the tied players gets hanged first.
06a.
This is technically not a game of mafia. None of you have any PTs, nor are any of you informed in any way, shape or form. I also have Cuddly's permission to run this game because this isn't a game of mafia...
06b.
However, like a normal game of mafia, don't talk to anyone else outside of this thread about this game.
07.
Actions are compulsive. Failure to comply results in instant death.
08.
No small, encrypted or invisible text. Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts. I will modkill you if you do this, and you will lose the game.
09.
If it seems like it should be against the rules, it probably is actually against the rules. Follow the spirit of the rules, and PM me if you're unsure.
10.
I am certainly human. If I screw up and that mod error means you lose when you shouldn’t have, you get a technical win at the end of the game.
11.
Game starts on Night 0. This is so you can get a chance to submit actions before inevitably getting lynched.
12.
Saying if you were recruited, (or anything similar) is also forbidden. Do not say you were, because that breaks the game, and that's not fun for me. >:c
13.
Do not use
this color (#006769)
, or any similar colors, because this is my color when I need to tell you guys important things.

Recruitment Physics:

00a.
If you're recruited, you win if your recruiter wins, and your recruiter wins if you win.
00b.
Players you recruit cannot win with your recruiter, unless they directly recruit them.
00c.
If you're recruited by another player, you do not win with your original recruiter, nor do they win with you. You instead win with your new recruiter.
00d.
At no point does your role or alignment change. Only who you win with will be changing throughout this game.
01.
If multiple people recruit someone, only one of them will actually recruit that player. (This is done via a random drawing on random.org.)
02.
You're not informed if you successfully recruit someone, only the recruited player is informed.
03.
Once all living players win with someone, or they actually are the last man standing, the game is over.
04.
If two players try to convert each other, both converts will fail.
05.
If all players circle convert, (target the player below/above them; 1 targets 2, 2 targets 3, etc etc or the other way around), I automatically win the game.

TL;DR Rules:

00a.
Follow all site-wide rules.
00b.
This is a game, treat it as such. Don't get site-banned either.
01.
All votes must be made bold, and if it looks like a vote, its a vote.
02.
When you're dead, don't post. You may make one bah post however.
03.
Days last for 8 IRL days, nights last for 2 IRL days, unless said otherwise.
04.
Prods get handed out every 72 hours, then you're forcibly replaced 18 hours after that.
05.
Don't talk to others about this game outside of this thread.
06.
Actions are compulsive. You must send in something, or else you get mod-killed.
07.
Don't make your text small, encrypted or invisible. Don't edit or delete your posts either, if you do, you get modkilled.
08.
Don't say you were recruited or anything similar. Doing so results in modkill.
09.
Don't use
#006769
under any circumstances, nor any colors similar to it. That is my mod-color.

Basically, if you can follow the rules of a normal game of mafia, and not say you were recruited, you'll be fine.


Spoiler: Rolecard
Everyone's Rolecard
Everyone Is A Cultist Recruiter I

Welcome! You're a
Cultist Recruiter
, just like everyone else. You're only aligned with yourself, those you recruit and whoever recruited you. One other thing... you don't know if the person you recruited actually was recruited, nor if they're still aligned with you... Isn't that fun? :D

Abilities:
~ Each night, you may attempt to recruit someone.
~ You're not informed if you successfully recruited someone.

Victory Condition:
~ You win once
all other living players win with you, you are the last man standing, or if nothing can prevent either from occurring.


Please confirm you're ready by
sending me a player to recruit
.


Spoiler: Recruitment Feedback...
You were recruited by [Name]! You now also win if they win!

Spoiler: ...Unless you get recruited by Irrelephant
You've been made relephant.

so either everyone wins, or you win
i don’t get it

No, not everyone can win.
Everyone's constantly getting recruited, and so if you get re-recruited, the original player doesn't win.

Basically it's a clusterfuck game.

From what I understand, this is a game of 10 cult recruiters
cult a

cult b

cult c

etc

If you're the recruiter for
cult a
, and you get recruited into
cult b
, you remain the cult recruiter for
cult a
, but now you also win with
cult b
. However, if you're recruited the next night by
cult c
, you retain your
cult a
recruiter role, but you lose your allegiance to
cult b
. In this way, there are almost always two groups you can win with, both of which are always changing size/shape, and meanwhile you never know if your own recruiting is actually going through or not (because maybe someone else recruited the same person instead or that person tried to recruit you at the same time, causing both of you to fail). Your goals for the lynch will never be simple.

Come on, it'll be fun!

Yes, that is exactly how the game will play out. You're always a recruiter for your own side, however, you always have others you may win with.

The only thing is, if
Cult A
recruits
Cult B
who recruits
Cult C
,
Cult A
cannot win with
Cult C
, unless
Cult A
directly recruits
Cult C
.
That prevents the entire "well we're all recruited with one another, ergo we all can win".

The rules basically are the same as a game of mafia.
Don't throw, don't be a dick, don't edit or delete posts, don't post when dead (bah post excluded), don't talk to others about this game outside of the thread, etc etc.

The only other rule that's different is you can't say you were recruited.
Saying something like "I was recruited by X last night" or "I wasn't recruited last night" (or anything similar) isn't ok.

Omg lol

You know what I mean :p
But yea, just follow the same rules that you would in a mafia game and don't say you were recruited, and there'll be no problems from me

Are the cults going to have PT's? Because I think that would arbitrarily increase the level of complication for the game and thus love the idea immensely.

Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2018 1:51 pm
by Korina
Wdym by having a PT?

Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2018 1:52 pm
by the worst
I think that would defeat the thing about not knowing if your recruit shots went through and stuff (though I'd probably also prefer a version where recruit successes were confirmed & had a PT lmao)

Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2018 1:52 pm
by Jingle
Ah, nvm. I see the answer in your rules. No PTs, because that would confirm recruitment.

I have an idea for a spin-off game. it'll be a large theme with two cults recruiting simultaneously but they can only recruit VTs.

also there's only one killing role and it's town aligned, and there's no lynches. instead you can make people unrecruitable

I expect the game will go on for several months and virtually no one will die so it should be wicked who wants in????

Part of me would, however, that would technically make it mafia (I think), and since the player got recruited elsewhere, you can just lynch them instantly, knowing that they are no longer aligned with you

I unironically would join this game only because it has a cult

I mean anything with cults is.... not really.... mafia because it's such a pain in the ass to play to a wincon that can swing at any given second (and would constantly)

but yeah agreed it's a completely different game format to this one :P

Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2018 2:01 pm

I mean, everyone is the same role, and my thought is that there is an informed minority.
Also, that'd be hell for me to mod.

Sure, it's certainly closer to mafia than this game or EIASK are for instance. but we can argue the case about cults all day, ultimately they're still bastard by definition (VTs in a game with cults lose their ability to stably play to their wincon etc. etc.)

still lit fun

and yeah that would suck to mod :lol:

Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2018 2:05 pm

IT WOULD
That's why I made the no PT rule.
So much PT changing is just... bleh.
