Wanna be experimented upon?
No, I'm not gonna inject alien DNA into you. Or DocEmrick DNA (which would be infinitely worse).
I just want to do an experiment which takes actual voting patterns out of the equation. So:
This game will be very small. I'm looking at 7 players:
2 baddies
1 seer
1 angel
3 villagers
The twist is that NO VOTES MAY BE CAST IN THE GAME THREAD. ALL VOTES WILL BE DONE VIA PM.
The game thread will remain exactly as normal. Players may say whatever they want. They may role-claim. They may say who they voted for. BUT THE ACTUAL VOTES MAY NOT BE MADE IN THE GAME THREAD.
Otherwise, normal game rules will apply. Since this is just an experiment, deadlines will be very quick: 3 hours for night and day phases.
This will be mod-intensive, so I'll also be looking for a co-mod.
This may be the first in a series of experiments.
This may crash and burn and yield no useful info, but, what else have you got to do? Work?
I hope twc doesn't mind me running this strange, quick game while we wait for his latest masterpiece...
If anyone wants to do it, please consider this a sign-up thread. We'll start upon getting 7 players and a co-mod.

Re: Wanna be experimented upon?

Re: Wanna be experimented upon?
ps87 is in as co-mod.
I'm also considering NOT REVEALING ROLES in the write-ups. Any opinions on that?

Not revealing the roles? That's interesting, not sure how I feel about that. I kind of like the instant gratification of seeing who died.
