Pelly's Paradise Day One: Huh?

[def]

The Story

A pile of costume materials lies on the floor. What could it be for?

Pelly addresses his captive audience.

"..."

Def steps in. "Yes, if you haven't figured it out, you are all vanilla. Well, except the ones of you who aren't."

Pelly sniggers.

Def continues, "Here's the deal. Costumes will be available for you to wear at two points in the day, loosely 12 hours apart." He pauses. "Pelly can't be counted on to be absolutely clockwork, but he will do his best. Why, in a previous game, someone accused someone else of postponing the posting of 'costumes' in order to torment someone in another time zone, when in actuality, the host had drank wine on a Friday night and fell asleep before posting. Pelly will do no such thing, within his abilities."

Pelly nods.

There is a little grumbling among the captive audience.

Pelly steps in.

"..."

"He would like you to know that a) your costumes may come with abilities and b) those abilities will be consistent from day to day. As well, the scum among you will be able to use the abilities at their discretion, while the vanillas will have no choice but to don their costumes at night. And the scum may select their killer, so 'staying at home' at night does not prove them innocent."

There is more grumbling among the bald denizens.

"..."

"This is being told in order to have a more level playing field, so you can get to the business of play rather than debate how everything works. Some of you have experience with this game, so I want the young 'uns to have fair knowledge."

Pelly sternly looks across the room.

"..."

"He says he is delighted by your hairless heads."

The game is afoot.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Costumes

In the first 24 hours of the game, all town players must wear a costume. Scum may or may not wear a costume.

Costumes will be offered in two shifts, roughly 12 hours apart from each other. There will be two separate assortments for each shift. Players may not wear the same costume on consecutive nights.

Players who choose not to select their own costume will be randomly assigned one from the remaining stock. Costumes taken by lynched or killed players will be removed from the game and not offered again.

Players select costumes by:

1. copying the entire updated list.

2. adding their name after their choice, and striking it off the list,

ie.

Costume A

Costume B def

Costume C

etc

Failure to do either of these steps will make their selection void, and other players may feel free to make that costume their selection.<players, feel free to police yourselves on this, since I both have a job and sleep>

If this system is too confusing for you, simply do nothing and receive a random selection, with no penalties.

<ALWAYS COPY THE WHOLE LIST>

Rules (deviations from the normal EB rules are struck-through)

1. Each player will be given a character to play, who will be aligned with either the Town or the Scum. To win the game, the Town must kill off all the Scum, while the Scum needs to outnumber the Town. Third-party (neutral) characters have their own win conditions as outlined in their roles.

2. Each day you will be able to vote to lynch a player. Voting should be done in the following format; Vote: Character (Player). Similarly, unvoting is to be done in the format; Unvote: Character (Player). No other format will be accepted. A majority vote is required to lynch a player. The player with the most votes will be lynched. In the case of a tie, the first to achieve their vote will be lynched. Voting is mandatory. Failure to vote will incur a vote penalty the following game day.

3. A game day will last a maximum of 72 hours. You may not vote in the first 24 hours. The day will end when a majority vote has been reached after 72 hours or if a unanimous vote is reached by the 48-hour point. After the day has been concluded, a night stage will commence, which will last 24 hours (or 48 hours if an emergency comes up). Night actions must be sent to the host in the first 24 20 hours of the night stage.

3.5. Players may not target the same player two nights in a row, and may not target themselves.

4. The alignment of lynched players, as well as those that died during the night, will be revealed at the beginning of the next day.

5. You may not quote or pretend to quote anything sent to you by the host via PM or by other players. No quoting PMs. That includes all the details of your character and role, as well as any night action results. Role claims and reporting of night action results are acceptable, but in your own words only. Do not attempt to use the structure of your role PM to your advantage.

6. Do not play the game outside the thread. Similarly, do not post out of character inside the thread. Game tactics and roles may only be discussed in the game thread or via PM with other players. Private discussion is done at your own risk and should be treated as part of the game.

7. If you are dead, you may not post in thread or discuss the game with any of the players. Any information you had becomes void, and may not be passed on.

8. You may not edit your posts.

9. You must post in every day thread.

10. If you encounter a problem or have a question, please contact the host via PM

11. Violation of the above rules will result in a 5 vote penalty vote penalty per every 4 living players against you, and death on your second offense.

You're getting the hang of it.

It's 'bracket' S 'bracket' then 'bracket' /s 'bracket' to close it

Ahoy thar Lady K. I do believe that Mr Dave has already selected that headpiece.

Arr, too slow.

Can we quote the previous list as Lind did or should we rather repost it in a new post?

If you can't use tags, delete the quote tags in the post you're using, and manually surround the struck through costume with these tags:

People can't quote quotes, so that will be problematic pretty quickly. Better to copy paste the list.
