Gaming Swapnote Werewolves - Test round

[RedJiggly]

Hello there, everybody.

A while back I saw This Video about playing Dungeons & Dragons together with friends trough Swapnote.
A very amazing idea, and I want to thank Ben 'MNCdover' Clay for it.

Anyhow, it made me think to try something a bit in a similar style: Werewolves.

Never heard of it? In the USA it is known to some people as 'Mafia'. It is virtually the same game, with other names for the roles.

Allright. For the test round of Werewolves for Scrapnote, I need 8 victi... volunteers that would like to take the role of players on them for this game. I myself(or in fact, my very beautiful mii) will be Game Master for this round.

The Rules

Each player gets a class. DO NOT tell other players about it. It is secret, and it is your key to victory. There are three classes in this basic Werewolves round:

-The Villagers5)
These are the common people. There is absolutely nothing special about them. They are all the people that don't get a special role. They win the game if all wolves have died.

-The Wolves2)
These pesky creatures are extremely hungry and eat a villager every night. They try to avoid suspicion at all costs, and will try to look as an ordinary villager towards the other players. The wolves know eachothers identity.

-The Seer1)
The seer is a special villager. Every night he can see the true identity of one player. He is the only player that can know FOR SURE if somebody is a wolf or an innocent villager. He works together with the villagers; He wins when all wolves have died. Because of the seer's mighty powers, it is the main target for the wolves. This is the reason that the seer should not tell others he is the seer too soon.


The game revolves in rounds.

Each of these rounds is divided in phases. It's very simple.

Night: ( 'everybody' sleeps. do not converse with other players during the night)
1. The seer wakes up, and looks in his crystall ball. He will askthe Game Master (in a swapnote adressed only to the Game Master)for the true identity of some player.
2. The wolves wake up, and have to agree with eachother as to which player they want to feast upon tonight. When agreed, they send the Game Master a swapnote with the player they want to kill.
3. The game master tells the seer, in a swapnote, the identity of the chosen player, but only if the seer would not be killed this night.
4. It becomes morning. The Game Master sends a Swapnote to all players, and tells what player got killed last night(using a gruesome story). The role of that player is revealed.
Day:
5. Now all players are allowed to talk with eachother. Send swapnotes to whomever you like, talk about your suspicions and why you yourself are totally innocent. This will keep going for a while (is two days a good time?)
6. The Game Master asks all players to vote.
7. Each player sends a swapnote to the Game Master with the person they want to kill.
8. The Game Master sends a Swapnote to everybody with in there a list of who accused whom, and the final result.
9. The Game Master tells another gruesome story about how the accused player got Lynched, and the role of that player is revealed.


Players that get killed are removed from the game. That is: They can no longer talk nor vote. They will however,(if they would like) still get the results of the swapnotes that are sent to everybody(about the players killed at night, during the day, etc)

Sounds fun! How can I join?

You have to post a post here with your FriendCode. You also have to add my FC(1289-8233-0120). The first 8 people to post will be the players for this round.


I have a question!

Feel free to ask any questions in this topic. I'm also new to SwapNote and I might not have explained Werewolves so greatly, so please, any input is appreciated.

[saberjoy]

thats a preety elaborate post you got there and i gotta admit you explained the rules clearly

3. The game master tells the seer, in a swapnote, the identity of the chosen player, but only if the seer would not be killed this night.

so wouldnt the seer get to know instantly if he is being killed when he doesnt get a name from the gamemaster telling who is being killed?

5. Now all players are allowed to talk with eachother. Send swapnotes to whomever you like, talk about your suspicions and why you yourself are totally innocent.

so are the players who are dead allowed to talk???

and yeah i have played this game but all the characters were different and i am pretty good at convincing people that i am not a wolf/mafia/killer but i have only played it in real life
so anyways
my fc is in my sig! and i want in!
EDIT: yay ! first post!
and btw wouldnt the different time zones affect the game? for eg i am from india and at the time of this post i was just about to go to bed

 

[ScarletCrystals]

Sounds interesting, count me in. FC in siggy. Too bad deception is not in my blood....or is it?

 

[SifJar]

I LOVE this game. Although I play it with many more characters (hunter, witch, little girl...). However, I do not have a 3DS, so I cannot join.

Thanks for your quick replies, guys . Awesome that you are interested. Also, do not forget that you need to add my FriendCode as well (see the first post).

The seer will only recieve his response after the wolves have chosen a victim. He will recieve this response right before everybody sees who is killed. If he does not get a response before somebody(i.e., he himself) is shown to be killed, he would in fact know that he died just at the same time as everybody else.

5. Now all players are allowed to talk with eachother. Send swapnotes to whomever you like, talk about your suspicions and why you yourself are totally innocent.

so are the players who are dead allowed to talk???

Nope. Dead players are not allowed to talk with other players (at least, about the game, that is ). Of course this cannot be controlled by the Game Master, but I trust the players in this .

and btw wouldnt the different time zones affect the game? for eg i am from india and at the time of this post i was just about to go to bed

Each interaction-sequence (i.e., the choice of the seer, the choice of the wolves, the conversation of the people during the day, the lynching at the end of the day) needs to be completed during a certain amount of time (for instance two days (48 hours)). When everybody is finished earlier the night or day continues quicker. In this way, everybody has time to respond, even if they live at the other side of the globe.

However, I have no clear idea of how long this time should be in this case. We will find out after playing a couple of rounds of Scrapnote-Werewolves. For now, the time limits will be 48 hours .

Thanks for your post .

Come on! I'm sure there are more people that love this. Don't be shy .

 

[DinohScene]

I've played this dozens of times in Minecraft.

Hit me up~

 

[iFish]

What's funny is that I bought this game recently at the card shop. It's a really fun game.

But honestly, I think it would be better suited for IRC or forum play. But good luck getting it all setup!

It might be. But we will never know if we don't try. I think using SwapNote might open some very original options of story-telling.
