Gods and Mortals [Phalla] - Game Over: Village Victory!

edited June 2008 in Debate and/or Discourse
Gods and Mortals Phalla


The Gods have chosen their pieces and the mortals have been informed, but will the combined power of the younger Gods be able to hold back the influence of the dak Twins? The game is set, but who will make the first move? Day 1 begins...


The Pantheon:
- Elsaan, the Snake - A dark god, twin to Artol.
- Artol, the Raven - A dark god, twin to Elsaan.
- Mewin, the Owl - A wise god, all-knowing and sad.
- Hin, the Smith - The strongest god.
- Luko, the Monkey - A trickster god, intrigued by humans.
- Gunto, the Fox - A greedy god, shunned by the other gods.
- Syl, the West Wind - A quiet, forgotten god.
- Uil, the Rising Sun - The light god, holiest of the gods.
***

This is a Phalla. If you are not sure what that is, check this or ask.

Please vote in Red and retract in Lime. Retractions are not necessary (as in, if you make two votes, your latest vote counts), but they are handy and helpful, so I would recommend them.

If you have any public clarification requests, please post them in Orange.

The standard rules apply, including the ban on anonymous contact (so if the person you are talking to does not know it is you, you are breaking this rule) and the ban on screenshots/forwarding PMs to players. You may, of course, paraphrase as you will. Also, there is to be no communication with/amongst the dead until after the game is over.

Activity is highly recommended and greatly encouraged. There are no hard and fast rules for judging inactivity (it's up to me), but please make an effort. If you do not think you will be able to commit the proper amount of time to this game, please let me know and bow out graciously. There is one Reserve at the moment (I am always happy to have more), but even if there isn't, don't drag down the game for anyone else by staying in if you cannot play. You'll be thanked for dropping out rather than hated for being inactive.

All actions and clarification requests should be PM'd to LaOs.

Each night will close at roughly 11pm EST, however, the official Vote Closed is the signal that the night has ended. I do not forsee being late, but there may be five minutes here or there. Either way, all votes for each night are valid until the official Vote Closed notice. This goes for action as well.

    Clarifications:
    1) Any proboards or other centres for communication that any of you set up should be forwarded to me. If you have to allow people to see it, remember to be quick about activating me. :P
    2)The Villager PM (sent to everyone):
    You are a villager: Living at the foot of the Sacred Mountain, you have come to notice the subtle hints of the otherworldly presense of the Gods and have grown accustomed to the calm sense of home you feel throughout the village. Everything you could possibly need is within easy grasp and the Gods of the Sacred Mountain provide ample opportunity for you to exercise, stretch, and grow your mind's capacity. Your peacful existence may seem strange to some, living without many of modern life's miracles, but you feel safe and calm at the foot of the mountain and cannot imagine life anywhere else.

    Of course, the news that the Gods are now using you as pieces in a giant game of succession has rocked your worldview some, but your faith in the Sacred Mountain helps you accept things. One of your beloved Gods has chosen you, placed a great burden on your shoulders, and you are sworn to carry the weight in the battle against the dark Twins.

    Before he left, the Elder God instructed you to gather with your fellow villagers nightly and vote to put one of you to death, hoping to remove the Twins' chosen villagers before they can gain the power needed to overtake the Sacred Mountain. The task will be grim, but your faith will lend you strength and shield you from disaster. You hope.

    =====
    Vote publically for the person you think has been chosen by one of the Twins. The highest vote count will decide who dies, so vote carefully.

    Already with the tricky questions??

    Well, something happens. It may or may not be worth finding out. But, is a tied village vote ever really good?

    I've answered this a couple times, so I'll just say it in public:

    Everyone gets the Villager PM and you cannot use the names in the To: field in the Villager PM you got to assume anything about anyone. I am limited to sending to 8 people at a time and sending five PMs was faster than 40.

    The Villager PM is posted in the Clarifications post because everyone gets it.

    Clarification:

    The results list Dead Players and Dead Roles, but they do not necessarily match up.

    [Edit]
    Match up as in match the same order in each list (so Greeper is not necessarily a Roommate).
    6)
    LaOs wrote: »
    Request for clarification: if there is a guardian and they used their power to prevent a kill, would the narration reflect that?

    I enjoy Narrations that matter. My style is to have the Narrations reflect the actions of the day.

    If something happens in the day with respect to Actions, the Narration will reflect that. Sometimes the reflection is subtle, sometimes it is not. Remember, there are two aspects to the Narrations in this game.

    I thought you couldn't post pm's word for word

    You can do whatever you want with PMs from other players (barring the screenshots and other trickery) but you cannot quote/copy word-for-word PMs from LaOs.

    So, do I bandwagon with everyone else, or do I get creative? Hmm.

    Well, there's 4 people neck and neck in the wagon, and hours to go, so do I vote now, or wait for a bit? Dump on the Mod, or on a total interweb stranger? I'll have a think for a bit.

    And am I totally sad, cos I've just put it all into a spreadsheet so I can keep track of voting?
