GM ANNOUNCEMENT

I will be away on a short vacation this weekend. I am not sure if I will be able to access the internet by then. Therefore, I will be extending the deadline by another 24 hours.

Enjoy your discussions.

@Haseo, why me all of a sudden? You don't seem to have any reasoning within your post and on top of that no one voted upon me during Day 1.

If anything I suspect Lilac as he was the one to generate the "list of activity" during day 1.

You've got a point there, but saying that whoever generates the "list of activity" suspicious also makes Kyte suspicious.

I'm new to this

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Quote:
Day 1
---
Gagged and bound, sent here with six others. Not sure how long I've been knocked out. Speakers slapped all around the establishment, with monotonous voice booming from them. Recognized this as my superior. He must really want me to tackle the investigation.

---
Killer claimed his first victim already. I could tell because LadySuburu has the integrity not to foolishly fall to death. I could smell his hands dripping in blood already.

---
I have to get these guys to trust me on this. In this twisted game, we have to cooperate to survive.

---
Investigated Ph0x. Had an initial suspicion of him knowing a lot about psychological warfare. Turns out he's just playing it smart.


Quote:
Day 2
---
Can't investigate today, or Killer will break his own rules and finish us off. We have to wait.

---
No... We have to wait...

---
I haev totel ltheambo-


DeathxShinigami was holding his journal when he fell into a deep slumber. A very deep one. Most likely a permanent one, judging by his lack of pulse.

DeathxShinigami has been killed.

Day 3... And Beyond.

"... I hope you got your wish, Killer. Six detectives, and you played them around on a silver platter. If I was as sick-minded as you are, I'd be impressed by you taking only two days to win at your own game."

The man, alone in a dark-pitched room, looked at the only door as it opened. The Killer stepped inside, making his presence known.

"Azure_Kyte... You sick maniac..."

Azure_Kyte kept silent. He would not want to waste his breath on a dead man, anyway.

THE KILLER (Azure_Kyte) HAS WON!

Quote:
Killer:
Azure_Kyte

Chief Detective:
DeathxShinigami

Detectives:
Haseo
Lilac
LadySuburu
Ph0x
animask


The game was abrupt, but I learned a lot of things to develop along the way. I appreciate all your cooperation during this brief tenure.

If you have any questions, or would like to leave a comment about the game itself, feel free to do so. I will mostly likely hold another round soon, preferably with the other variant.

TRI-EDGE WAS THE KILLER? WHY THE POOT DIDN'T I NOTICED THAT?
That was fast. I was going to go all PW on everyone, yet screaming Image at quotes can only be a dream

Thoughts:
I think that this game was really a clear Killer win in the first place.
Killer had to kill Chief Detective. He could do this once per day.
Detectives had to find killer. They could do this once per two days.
Basically Killer has a higher chance of winning because he has twice the number of attempts the detectives have.
And both are targeting one person.

Perhaps you could make it equal?
Or add a role that could target and guard someone and die instead of the target?

I was playing more on the what ifs. Also consider the following:

Seven players, one killer.
Killer has 1 out of 6 chances to kill CD. He kills each day, and if he kills a non-CD, his chances increases. However, he has no clue who the CD is, no matter what.
Detectives can only investigate once every two days at most. They also have the same chances. However, even a failed investigation can give them an edge, because it means they can actually trust that person they investigated. There are underlying psychological benefits from investigations that I kept in there.
That, and even with the chances, the Killer makes his own risk. Sure he gets a bigger chance of finding the CD for every kill, but that also gives the Detectives the same amount of chances.

I will admit, however, that the "no consecutive investigation" rule was added in late because otherwise, there wouldn't be much thought given into nominating a person up for investigation. Because it's basically one versus everyone else, I figured the bigger group has to give a much deeper thought into their actions, and sum them all up together to find a good plan in figuring out the Killer.

I'm very reluctant into adding another role for a variant targetted towards a small player pool because new mechanics would potentially break the whole "let's figure out who the Killer is" mechanics.
