Werewolf Game #1: The Werewolf Game
Dawn
It begins.
The game's participants are flown to a distant town via private jet; the town has all necessary amenities, including a fully-stocked store with no clerk so the participants have access to all the food they will need.
The participants have all been informed that they will each have their own small house to live in, complete with water and sewer service, all paid for; they have each been given directions to their house from where the plane lands.
They have also been given, as a group, an instructional DVD, which they have been told to go view as a group at the center of town in the town square, which apparently has a large pavilion with a plasma TV.
The group of fourteen walks to the pavilion, and the DVD is put in the player.
On the screen is Ace Of Hearts, whom they recognize as their Host. Ace speaks to the participants as follows:
"Hello my contestants.
You fourteen were selected for this violent experimental game, which, by the way, will be televised outside this region for others to watch.
As you already know, you each have a house to live in, complete with all things necessary for daily life. In fact, we've even provided each of your houses with a computer with internet service, as well as a flat-screen plasma TV with cable, as well as a PlayStation 3, XBox 360, and Wii, with a large stock of games at the game rental store, all of which have been paid for by the company.
The reason why all of these amenities has been provided for you is because of the nature of the game you are about to participate in, and the reason why all fourteen of you signed a waiver, which only made vague statements that your lives could be at risk.
And they are.
While you were sleeping in your hotel rooms last night, five of you were injected with a DNA-altering substance; one which turns you into a violent wolf every night.
That's right: five of you...are werewolves.
As a live audience watches your daily lives here in this isolated town, the purpose and entertainment of this game is to see whether the wolves will kill off all the ordinary humans, or whether the ordinary among you will be able to pick out the werewolves and systematically kill them before it is too late.
To do this, each one of you still living must cast a lynch vote every day. At sundown, he or she who has the most votes against them will be publicly executed in a lynching: they will be hanged at the gallows located in the back of the town. Any who refuse, are too scared, or forget to vote by sundown for any reason shall receive a phantom vote which counts against them the next day.
If the humans win, all participants still alive at the conclusion of this game will, as a reward, be taking home their new computer, plasma TV, game consoles, their choice of games from the rental store, and one million dollars each.
If the wolves win...well, that's just too bad. I guess we'll then just have to bomb the place afterward for the ratings.
You are free to do anything you like in this town; there are no rules or laws here, fitting for a scenario where most of you will not be living much longer anyway.
Welcome, my participants, to The Werewolf Game.
Good luck."
The DVD stops at this point.
Day 1
During This Phase: Free discussion and lynch voting.
Deadline: Sundown will be 3:00 PM EST on May 4, which is approximately 3 days from the time of this post. He or she who has the most votes against them at this time shall be lynched.
