    Default Mascarade : EoFF edition #1

    In the game of EoFF, everyone can be a winner. We gather now to see who the real winner is, and in order to do that, meet the cast:

    Del Murder, the Judge
    Linode, the Bishop
    BoB, the King
    Psy, official Jester of the premises
    Danielle, Queen
    Shlup, Wicked Witch of the West Coast
    Two EoFFChatters, peons and casual members,
    Cid, Cheater of fate.
    Aexoden, Spy, watching your every chat on #eoff.

    In Mascarade, players (you) will have to pretend to be who they are not, and lying is not only allowed, but encouraged, as long as you don't get called on it.

    The goal
    To collect 13 gils, unless someone loses all his/her coins, in which case the richest wins.

    The rules
    • Players play in fixed order (pretend we're around a table). Each player must take exactly one action on his turn.
    • There are three possible actions :
      1. Swapping cards
        If you decide to swap cards : announce SWAP with <playername>, PM me if you do a real swap, or do a pretend swap. Only you and I will know, the rest of the players will be left to guess what was done. You don't need to wait for me to reply, the next player can make his move.
      2. Role-checking yourself : announce ROLECHECK. I'll PM you your current role. Same, the game can still move forward.
      3. Role-calling : announce ROLECLAIMING <role>. From the moment you post until 6 hours after, everyone can CONTEST or ACCEPT. After 6 hours, anyone who has not ACCEPTed will be considered having done so to let the game move forward. If everyone has ACCEPTed, apply the role's power immediately. If one person at least CONTESTed, I'll reveal cards in the thread (see next point).
    • CONTEST rules : the CLAIMer's and CONTESTer(s)' cards are revealed, I will post them in the thread and leave the information visible for roughly 6-12 hours. If CLAIMer is who he pretends to be : he can apply his power ; if he lied : he pays a 1 gil penalty to the tribunal. If a CONTESTer lied : same penalty ; if he really is the role that was claimed, he can apply that power immediately out of his turn. If the player immediately next after the CLAIMer CONTESTed, he will be forced to take the SWAP action next.
    • Everyone starts with 6 gils
    • The first four players are forced to SWAP.


    The peanut gallery (roles)
    1. Del Murder, the Judge : Del takes all the coins that are sitting in the tribunal.
    2. Linode, the Bishop : Linode takes 2 gils from the richest player of his choice.
    3. BoB, the King : BoB wins 3 gils, because all those Amazon links, man.
    4. Psy, official Jester of the premises : Psy wins one gil, and takes two cards of his choice among the other players, and does a SWAP between them. PM me whether you really swap or pretend to.
    5. Danielle, Queen : Danielle wins 2 gils. Joint account, ho.
    6. Shlup, Wicked Witch of the West Coast : Shlup swaps her entire fortune of gils with the player of her choice.
    7. Two EoFFChatters, peons and casual members : the EoFFChatter wins 1 gil thanks to a sweepstake. If the other casual CONTESTs and reveals himself to be the other EoFFChatter, both earn 2 gils instead.
    8. Cid, Cheater of fate : Cid wins if he has 10 gils instead of the 13 needed for the others. Cid is Cid, you know.
    9. Aexoden, Spy : Aexo can look at his card and at his target's card, and then decide to SWAP with him/her.


    Tips
    Contest someone who will gain too much and who you know is lying, even if you are lying too. You both lose 1 gil, but you will know your role for sure and you prevent the other from taking an action. This is especially true if you are playing one move after the next.
    Lie through your teeth. If everyone doubts, it's a good time to call a good role. While no one will know for sure if you swapped cards, no rule pretends you from claiming to have done so in the thread. Confusing other players through words is a valid strategy.
    Subscribe to the thread, you do not want to miss too much

    And since the game is now starting...

    The player order is
    1. Jiro
    2. Tasura
    3. Shauna
    4. MDNA
    5. Foa
    6. Shion
    7. Sharky
    8. Kent
    9. Bleys
    10. Jinx



    Tribunal is empty.

    And then there is Death

    Jiro will be the first to move, then Tas, Shauna and Madonna. Since this is the start of the game, all four of you must PM me if you really SWAP or pretend to and announce in the thread who you (pretend to or really) SWAP with. After that, foa will take the first real move of the game.

    And then there is Death
