Welcome, one and all, to the greatest Phalla EVER MADE. Everyone gets a special power that can change the game, and-

SHUT THE FUCK UP, MOLYNEUX!

But it is!

I WILL END YOU!

Okay, I'll shut up!

Thank you. Welcome to Albion, the setting for Phable: The Lost Phalla. You all have an important role to play in its ultimate destiny, whether you realize it or not.

Here's the breakdown: Albion is home to Heroes, who watch over Albion or try to get rich off it. However, a great evil is rising in Albion: Bandits. An ex-Hero, Twinblade, has united the bandit clans and turned them into a serious threat. The Guards can no longer effectively combat these brigands, and so they have turned to the Heroes to save them.

This is a game that can get as big as we need it to be, and I'd like it to go somewhere in the 50-60 range. Vote close is TBD, but consider it to be at 10 PM EST (6 PM PST) for now.

You only have one vote you need to worry about right now. The traditional !red elimination vote. You will not be targeting anyone with special abilities publicly.

Depending on the PM you receive, you may receive side-quests. These are additional conditions that you should work towards. Depending on the condition, you may receive in-game benefits for fulfilling them.


Clarifications

Wasn't your last game horribly imbalanced?
Yes. This one less so. I missed the orange text.

How complex are the rules?
They're self-explanatory. There's a traditional mafia involved.

Does everyone get a special ability?
CLARIFICATION DENIED.

How do I get the Singing Sword?
CLARIFICATION DENIED.

How big of a teetotaler are you?
A very big o- I mean, CLARIFICATION DENIED.

How many times will we be insulting Molyneux?
HEY!
STFU! Does that answer your question?

Are we going to have to send in orders after vote close again?
No. All orders will be sent in before vote close. I am NOT repeating that again.

How many people will be playing?
Green light will be given when we reach 50. 60 will be our maximum.

Reserves
1. lonelyahava
2.
...

We now have sixty people playing. Sign-ups are closed, though reserves are still being accepted.

A few ground rules before we begin, yes?

Here are some basic rules, most of which are stolen from another game:
- No forwarding, paraphrasing, or quoting Role PMs, screen caps, or anonymous contact.
- Please send me a link to any proboards made during the game.
- Vote in Bold Red for one person to vote them out, and Ask for Clarifications in Orange. Clarifications can also be asked through PM if it pertains to something private.
- DO NOT edit any post with a vote or I will not count it.
- Inactives will be removed. You must vote for someone everyday. Failure to vote two days consecutively is grounds for removal.
- In the event you must resign or be removed for inactivity, a reserve will take your place. If there are no reserves, you will be killed.
- You may make 1 post after death, a 'ghost post'. This post cannot contain game information.
- No talking about the game with dead players.
- DON'T BE A DICK. I will replace you.
- Vote will close at 10:00pm Eastern Standard Time.

Also a rule of my own.... one that I feel needs to be put out there due to events that occured in a recent Phalla.

-Alts are not permitted to play. Ever. In any capacity. If an alt is found, your shenanigans will be reported to the mods.

    It's easy to talk about gamebreaking when you
    1) Know how to do it and
    2) Want to do it

    But when you're trying to play as a Bowman because that's how you always approach that genre of game, you're in for a world of hurt.
    plus the only way I ever completed that game was by relying pretty much solely on that health-stealing thing

    The multiple arrow shot was actually my favorite move.

    Problem was that the bouncing arrows friendly fire was far more dangerous to anyone you were escorting in a mission than any evil mercenary.

    The thing I remember about Fable is the spell that slows down time. Whatever that spell was, it was ridiculous. Only spell I ever used besides some healing.

    I shouldn't sign up right now, but if circumstances change, I may.
