Thread: Mini Game: Vanilla Game 5 [Concluded]

    Default Mini Game: Vanilla Game 5 [Concluded]

    Unfortunately this can only be seven players not the ten I normally have.

    Going to be testing out a few new ideas this time around, as with my other games. I will try to make a balanced and enjoyable game, but I cannot guarentee balance.

    Rules:
    •24 hour days and 24 hour night phases. Phases may be extended if needed and if I require.
    •You can contribute after death, can't use private offthread info though, can't PM people, etc.
    •You may not post your role PM or quote anything by me, however you may paraphrase
    •No screenshots, etc.
    •You may talk to players outside the thread.
    •You will vote for players you want lynched during the day, using the format, Vote: Visorslash. Votes must be in bold to count. If you wish to unvote, simply: Unvote; Vote: ATPG. You don't need to do a semicolon, I just think it looks nice.
    •If you are replaced or WOG killed, please do not post in the thread anymore unless it is an apology. If you are replaced by choice, please don't comment in the game.
    •If you think you won't be around during the night phase to give your night action, you can always PM me your night actions in advance.
    •Votes that end in a tie, will result in a duel
    •No lynch and Abstain are allowed.
    •Do not edit your posts. If you want to fix a grammar mistake or fix tags, that's fine, but don't alter your content. If you have another thought, just double post.
    •Other stuff may happen. Don't be scared.
    •Also, there is to be no lurking. If you miss three day phases in a row or 4 in total with any reasonable excuse or informing me why you will be WoG'ed. No exceptions.
    •Have fun. This is not an option . If you don't think you'll have fun with this game... don't join it. Nor if you feel you won't be able to participate.
    •Roles will be revealed on death.

    Players 10/10:
    1. Nightbringer
    2. Jarema
    3. SalmonSoil
    4. atheotes
    5. Ishmael
    6. LazyMcCrow
    7. Montmorency
    8. BSmith
    9. DaveShack
    10. Arjos

    This will be an open setup game.

    The roles are as follows:
    • Third Party
    • Yakuza
    • Yakuza
    • Roleblocker
    • Bus Driver
    • Town Yakuza
    • DayKill OneShot Vig


    Any questions, just ask. I would like to have more players, but the rules constraint me to 7. Any balancing ideas are welcome.

    I am assuming yakuza = night killer
    and daykill oneshot vig = able to force the vote to whatever they want once in the game.

    How does bus driver work?

    Yakuza kills themself and converts a player of their choosing to their faction.
    Day kill vig can kill someone in the day. They just have to shoot me a PM in the day phase they want to kill someone.

    Bus driver switches actions. Everything targeting Player A will target player B and vice versa.

    I would really like to bump this up to 10 players, for balance reasons.
    I'll send a PM to the Mods if I can, in which case I'll put you in.

    I'm assuming if the Bus Driver is Yak'ed they retain their ability as a Bus Driver.
    Would a Yak overwrite a Third Party win condition?

    I'm still deliberating on whether yaked players keep their abilities. I'm leaning towards no at the moment.

    And a yak would change the alignment, therefore the victory condition of the player.

    Reserve, or in if the size goes up.

    The title really shouldn't be "vanilla".

    For those who exited the Yakuza game early like me or didn't play, maybe a reminder is in order. A Yakuza can either kill or "Yak", where "Yak" converts and suicides?

    Seems hard for mafia, at first glance. Though I haven't worked through statistics to confirm anything, and don't know what the odds are supposed to be...

    Wait, so yakuza have a choice in this? I thought that converting + suicide was the only option.

    that might make an interesting game though actually.

    The mafia can either use a factional kill, or one of the Yakuza can yak, killing themself and converting another player to their faction.

    I'm tempted to make the one-shots either backups, or remove them, now that you mention them.

    Thoughts?

    Actually, I'll make them vanilla townies. They already have a roleblocker and a bus driver plus a townie Yakuza.

    Alright. I'll write the role PM's and send em out.
