Game V.A (2017)- Ruins of Panem: Introduction

This month will take place in the ruins of Panem. It will take place over the course of the month with each 24 hour period either being a day or night phase. This game will be rather small and have a 30 person cap. During each Day Phase, a lynching will occur. During each Night Phase, special actions will be used.

#Rules:

1. Public spreadsheets will not be allowed. Make your own opinions and vote accordingly.

2. Ghosts are allowed to haunt the players but not give any information related to the game. Ghosts who break this rule will be banned from the ghost sub and the game.

3. As always, outside discussion of WW is not allowed.

4. Players must stay active by voting. Those who miss three votes during the game will be pulled from the game.

5. Players need to follow all of the established sidebar rules.

Please note that commenting is not required for this game. You may be as laconic or loquacious as you desire.

#Roles

There are very few roles in this game split evenly between two teams: Townspeople and Muttations. Players will not be aware of who is on their team.

##Townspeople:  

1. Mayor: The leader of the townspeople. They have the ability to attempt to save ONLY three people during the game from lynching. They save townspeople by sending a PM to u/CommanderofPanem during the same day phase. If the Mayor succeeds in saving someone, the Mayor is revealed in the following night phase post.

2. The Geneticist: This role has the ability to convert mutts into townies. However, each time they make an attempt, their success rate decreases. If they target a townsperson, the townsperson will die.

3. The Geneticist's Apprentice: This role takes the role of the Geneticist should the Geneticist die. Their success rate will start 10% lower than their predecessor’s final success rate.

4. Town Drunk: This player can spy on one person per phase to learn their role. However, due to their drunkenness, they may be misinformed. (Some days, the drunk has more control over their sobriety than others)

5. Townspeople: These players must work together to protect one another and find the Mutts that hide among them. In the event the Geneticist dies and the Apprentice becomes the Geneticist, a random Townsperson will be promoted to Apprentice. They are armed with their votes and their voices.

##Muttations:  

1. Alpha Mutt: Leader of the Mutts. The Alpha chooses one person to kill each night. The Alpha is immune to the Geneticist (i.e. cannot be converted to a townie), but can still be killed by lynching. Mutts can also be killed by the Alpha.

2. Beta Mutt: This role takes the place of the Alpha if they die. They are also immune to the Geneticist but can still be killed by lynching.

3. Camo Mutt: This role is a chameleon. The Camo can fool the Town Drunk by appearing as a regular townsperson when spied on.

4. Rabid Mutt: This mutt picks a person to distract from their role each night. If the player they choose has used an action, the action will not occur. If they choose a Townsperson or Normal Mutt, that player will be silenced for a phase.

5. Normal Mutt: The Normal Mutts attempt to throw the scent off the other Mutts by engaging in conversations. Subterfuge and misdirection are the Normal Mutt’s best friends. In the event the Alpha dies and the Beta becomes the Alpha, a random Normal Mutt will be promoted to Beta. They are armed with their voices and their votes.

All non-voting actions will be PMed to the mods (/u/CommanderofPanem). All lunch votes will be submitted through a Google Form. Only the Alpha is required to submit an action every night; all other roles are free to use their action as much or as little as they please. If the Alpha fails to submit their action twice, they will die and the Beta will take over. Every single player must vote during every day phase.

Players can only submit one lynch vote during a phase. Their first submitted vote can not be changed.
