The Black Plague: Fourteenth Century Europe.
Smallpox: Sixteenth Century America.
Cholera: Nineteenth Century Europe.
Sometimes, when nature's most successful experiment isn't doing a good enough job of killing itself off, its erstwhile mother steps in, culling the flock, tending the herd with the steady hand of the most experienced butcher. An effective contingency to our own relentless need to grow, to expand, to propagate, a virus will sweep across the land we have laid claim to as our own. Over a period of years, hundreds, thousands, millions will perish as disease and contagion holds sway over what once was governed by man. Despite the rising death toll, no matter how great the numbers of our fallen must be, we have, as a race, rebuilt and carried on the torch of our forefathers. The greatest plagues, wars, catastrophes, have done nothing to loosen the knot we tie around planet Earth.
America: Present Day.
If there had been time, news stations would have switched to a 24-hour broadcast of "QUARANTINE IN PLACE", with snappy graphics and booming sound clips. If there had been time, medical institutions all across the world would have done tests and, perhaps, discovered the nature of the virus and the means by which the virus, a small bacteriophage under the scientific classification of Phallogolus Immune Inhibitor, with alarming alacrity, committed a genocide (after a manner) of every white blood cell within the victim's body, as well as conveying the properties of the common flu. If there had been time, the United States Military would, undoubtedly, have set up thousands of roadblocks across the country, quarantining cities and towns with signs of infection.
If there had been time.
Welcome...to Viral Phallology.
Do you have what it takes to overcome zanies, zealots and...z..xylophones in a post-apocalyptic America? When some ridiculously improbable virus ravages the hot, young bodies of some and leaves others intact, will you answer the call to duty? How about now? Will you answer the call to duty now?
Miscellaneous Gamery
This is a 50-player game. Reserves are certainly welcome.
Voting will close nightly at 10PM EDT/9PM Central/8PM Mountain/7PM Pacific. I will start as soon as all spots are taken.
An inactivity policy will be strictly enforced. You must make at least 2 posts per day, and must vote every day. Your two required posts
must be posts of some substance. If you're only going to be making two posts per day, they will not be of such wonderful content as "I like cheese" or "!vote blah" "!retract blah, "!vote Wiggin". If you do not think you will be able to at least attempt to contribute at least twice a day, please consult me before signing up. I will give warnings before kicking people. I am the final word on the substantial quality of posts.
There are 8 different roles occupied by 18 different players. There are two different groups of "bad guys". Many roles are present here that appear in most Phallas - however, every single one has at least one twist.
This game uses a hometown mechanic. Your hometown can link you with similarly-roled people, or give hints as to your role.
This Phalla is very, very loosely inspired by the Stephen King book The Stand. I borrowed from it, but did not make it entirely based upon the book, because I did not want to leave non-King fans high and dry. However, King fans, keep your eyes open: in both the narrations and actual gameplay there are clues that can aid you in your pursuit of success.
The original post of the game thread will contain more information about the actual game. Do not expect more role information.
To sign up, type
!I, ____, would like to watch my loved ones die (#__). You MUST specify a number when you sign up - this will assign you your role and hometown.
For clarification on any aspect of the game or signing up, type
!clarification ____. I can refuse to answer any clarification, and probably will to most.

Congratulations, Bergy, you're retarded.
I've been trying to reach you, but your extension cord doesn't reach that far.
It's a Phalla.
They're fairly common.
Sorry to lame all over your parade.

If any of you are First Responders or EMS personnel, do whatever you can to keep away from the Silent War book. It's hideous.

there's no stu redman role
no nadine
no harold
I went original, here. I wanted the King nublets to know their way around.
yeah
You ain't down as Randall Flagg on the playerlist, boy.
It's a game where one team only knows the other wants to kill them, but they don't know who they are or even what some of the rules of the game are.
The bad guys get to pretend they don't know what's going on either and sidle up behind people and shank them, then casually wander off whistling.
