[Mini] Ignorant Phalla - Day 7 - Finale

DaiusDaius Registered User regular
edited May 2010 in Critical Failures
Ignorance is bliss. A great man once said that, apparently. I can’t say I know who though. Could have been a philosopher. Could have been a scientist. Hell, it could even have been the guy who comes around to collect the bins. It’s just one of those things, isn’t it?

My name’s Daius. You may not know me; and that’s nothing to be ashamed of to be sure. There’s a lot I don’t know myself. Throughout our lives we learn so much, experience such an amazing array of emotions, events, locations and sensations. And yet even all of those things are but the scrapings from the tip of the iceberg of existence. We’re all ignorant, each and every one of us. It’s time for you to learn the full extent of your own knowledge.

This is a game known as a Miniphalla. The rules to such games can be found here; essential reading, for too much ignorance can be disastrous. It will be a game for 25 players; however, this will not be like any other Phalla you may have played before.

Usually, these games are split up into “days”. Throughout that day a public vote is made, and orders are sent in by the mafia and the various players who have abilities. This is all taken into consideration and a “narration” is posted, showing who has died that night and heralding the start of the new day. I am afraid none of this will be happening in quite the same way here.

There will still be days, starting at Midnight BST and lasting 24 hours. In these periods each player is asked, politely but sternly, to post at least twice in this thread. However, they will not vote in the thread. All votes will be PMed to me, leaving everyone else ignorant of your true decision. When the day ends, the next day will start immediately. All players will post and vote again as usual.

Those who died that night will be completely blind to their demise.

Orders by the Mafia and by Village specials will continue being sent regardless. The game will only end when either the Mafia or the Village has been named victorious

Additionally, some players may have abilities yet be completely blind to possessing them until certain condition are met.

Usual rules apply. No anonymous contact, no screenshots, and all proboards must be linked to me. The dead may however speak as freely as they wish; it’s not like they’ll know.

If you believe you are ready to embrace the ignorance within you, then please !Sign up

    That's the full 25 then. More reserves will still be appreciated.

    PMs are now going out. If you do not recieve one, then you are an Ignorant Villager, and this is your role PM :-

    You are... Ignorant

    You are just one of twenty five in this little private universe. You know nothing of it, as do they. At least, that’s what you would hope. But it seems that some people here know too much. They seek to purify, to eliminate you for your lack of knowledge. This would definitely not be a good thing. You will win when the Knowledgeable are eliminated.

    So I guess that means Kime is definitely doomed to bite the vote. Who will be able to resist the urge when no one can reprimand you for it?

    On the other hand, he won't notice so he probably won't mind.

    Perhaps we should vote publicly anyway, even though it's not required.

    I mean, obviously the Mafia will lie about who they're voting for, but I can't think of any reason for the village not to get together and be ignorant together.
