.
.
.

7 of you are regular PEOPLE (VILLAGERS)



You are being watched, monitored, your privacy is irrelevant. Your opinions and your beliefs are subject to intense indoctrination. We are rapidly losing our liberty. Some of you care deeply about this. Others use it as an excuse to play the bongos and not take a shower as a form of "protest." Some of you don't give a shit at all and are more than happy to be sedated. No matter, you are all in this together now. You goal is to ELIMINATE THE NSA.

3 of you are THE NSA (WOLVES)



Your sole goal is to keep the people under your thumb. While you claim noble motives in the pursuit of ending terrorism, your activities suggest otherwise. You are a nefarious evil organization who aims to oppress the masses. FUCK YOU GUYS.

YOU WIN WHEN YOU REACH PARITY WITH THE PEOPLE.

.
.

.

1 of you is EDWARD SNOWDEN (SEER)



You are on the side of THE PEOPLE. Every day you keep releasing more and more documents giving the people a broader and broader scope of the real reality we live in. YOU ARE A HERO.

Special Notes:

• Game moderator reserves the right to MODKILL inactive posters. MISSING EVEN 1 VOTE WILL BE AN IMMEDIATE MODKILL.
  Exception to the above: Majority night happens before you get a chance to vote. In this scenario, you are fine.
  
  You are all very active posters on JPP, and I refuse to accept that within a 12 hour period, with many of you likely owning smartphones, that you are unable to get on to JPP for the 5 seconds it takes to cast a vote, even if it's done haphazardly. Real life happens, we get it. But in the event of that worse case scenario of you being unable to be on JPP, oh well, you lose an internet messageboard game.

• Infrequent posting may/will result in a modkill. 1 day of sparse voting may get a pass, the second time it happens will not. If you want to be safe try to have at minimum of at least 3 posts not including your vote (i think that's more than generous) per day. Posting to avoid modkill is a good way to get modkilled. Don't expect "hi guys i'll be around later" to count towards your post total. Though some may view infrequent posting a strategic device, at it's core this game is meant to be fun and that cannot be had if no one is posting in the thread. As such everyone should try to participate at least some amount each day, to the best of their abilities.

• Impending modkills will not be announced during the day phase of the game. They will take place promptly after day has ended.

• In the event of a modkill, or through the actions of a vigilante the roster has an even number at daybreak, the village will have an option to vote "NO LYNCH." Doing so will save a villager from being lynched that day and immediately bring upon night. The "No lynch" option is necessary to have if a roster becomes evenly numbered as games are best ended in a Final3/Final5 situation, rather than wasting days only to end up with a tie.

• In this round, the Seer has a TRUE N0 peek. For night zero, Seer will choose whoever they wish to peek.

Rules

• NO EDITING YOUR POSTS. Part of the game depends on people going back to look at your past comments. If you slip up or say something stupid, just hope someone does not notice it.

• No talking when dead. Most game mods will allow a post with some sort of funny comment, however no strategy content should be included "I knew I had it coming" is ok but "durron and Jared are wolves, look into their voting history" is not. After this post do not post anymore in the thread until the game ends. Dead wolves are dead in wolf chat as well. They may not give any further strategy input

• Please DO NOT groan or thank posts when dead. This is virtually equal to saying "I agree with this post," or "I disagree with this post," which is equivalent to giving strategy input. This can and HAS influenced past games, and dead players should not be influencing the gameplay.

• You can vote and unvote as many times you like throughout a day, however when someone receives a majority of votes, it is immediately "night" and the villager is killed.

• Villagers/Seer should not be PMing each other at all. Confine your activity to the game thread, because the challenge of the game is to read what has been posted and to draw conclusions that way. Its okay to post lists of who is most likely a wolf and who is most definitely a villager out in the open.

• Please DO NOT discuss the contents, or lack thereof, of any pm's from the Gamemod concerning this game within this thread or anywhere else

• In the event of a MUST LYNCH situation (i.e. a day where village must lynch a wolf or lose), ONCE YOU HAVE CAST YOUR VOTE YOU MAY NOT UNVOTE OR CHANGE YOUR VOTE TO ANOTHER PERSON. ***YOU ARE LOCKED IN.***

• Village wins by killing all the wolves. Wolves win by obtaining numbers equal to, or greater than, the village.

• The Moderator reserves the right to MODKILL inactive players or those that frequently break the rules. It is up to said mods discretion. If there are multiple non-voters or inactives at the end of the day, we may conflip a modkill. This will be up to my discretion. Don't put yourself in this situation and then complain after the fact. ASSUME by NOT BEING ACTIVE that you are going to be modkilled!

[BRUTALITOPS]

CHANGE IN VOTING FORMAT. READ:

• To vote, just type in lynch watermark or unvote yurt accordingly. If you do not use this format your vote will not be counted.

I would like votes to now by bolded. When counting votes and scanning a thread, underlines don't stand out too much, but bold does. It makes it easier for me to mod. DON'T FUCKING COMPLAIN about this, it's trivially easy to adapt. And yes I have to be strict on format otherwise wolves can just "pretend" to vote someone and purposely do it wrong or something so it's not counted.

BOLD YOUR FUCKING VOTES.

[BRUTALITOPS]

​ IF AT DAYBREAK YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED YOUR ROLE, DO NOT SAY SO IN THE THREAD. PM ME INSTEAD. IF YOU SAY YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED YOUR ROLE IN THE GAME THREAD, YOU RISK BEING MODKILLED.

The reasoning for this is that wolves typically pm each other and say what's up. So saying you don't know your role, it typically makes you a villager and you are a clearing yourself. And yes wolves can play a weird meta game saying they did not get their role but this opens up an unnecessary can of worms. Players should be clearing themselves within the boundries of the game, through wit, strategy, and written skills, not through a game mechanic. It's angleshooting and not within the spirit of the game.

There is no upside to it and there are potential downsides, so just don't do it.

[BRUTALITOPS]

IGNORANCE OF THE ABOVE "SPECIAL NOTES" AND "RULES" IS NO EXCUSE.

Don't assume everything is the same. In fact, there have been a few changes this round.

Take a minute before charging into this thread and make sure you know what the standards and rules are going forward.

Questions about game mechanics should be pm'd to me, and I may answer them in the thread (with your name redacted) for all the thread to see if it's a pertinent question.

Thank you all, and good luck tomorrow. Roles will be pm'd shortly.

[BRUTALITOPS]

ALL COMMUNICATION WILL BE DONE THROUGH YOUR ALTS

The people have come together.

[Moxy Fruvous]

Yo Yoda....you supposed to have some mad skills with this force thing man. You'd better be showing us some wolves dude.

[Moxy Fruvous]

Whoops...my bad...I mean NSA agents.

[Moxy Fruvous]

This is some pretty fucked up shit man.

[BlargityBlarg!]

Blargity thinks the NSA is here to help.

Maybe little crackbabies would be wise to put down the pipe and take up a cause.

Like finding NSA to congratulate them vigorously.

Are you already casting aspersions?
