The sun rises and there is a new feeling in the air.......that oppressive weight has been lifted! The slayers both unanimously voted for The First! Yep, drusillacakes was defeated. The goodies win the challenge!!
Sad that it ended so quickly. Maybe leaking who you were so fast was not such a good idea. Also, the next game, when research is done, it will be on a person by person basis. No more voting to research. In the first round, all bringers were able to find each other and same with scoobies. Made it too easy.
Points will be awarded tomorrow. I am wrapping up loose ends now, so look for the final update tomorrow. I just didn't want to keep you waiting!
Let me know what you guys want to play next! We could try this one again with the new rules, do the glory/key version, or go back to a classic, just let me know!

The mob has spoken! They seize Just Willow Wait......her eyes! Bringer!! Well, at least the mob was right this time. Night should be more than interesting......
Night 3 will last from 1:15pm Sunday until 1:15pm Tuesday (unless votes are all in early).
REMINDER: As stated in the rules, screenshots of PMs from me=CHEATING. I need to be able to communicate with players without that being used against someone. You may use others' PMs, etc, but NONE from me. Excerpt from rules on page 1:
screenshots are forbidden in the game. If you wish to use them in your PMs, that is okay, BUT ONLY FROM OTHER PLAYERS, such as seers, etc. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD SCREENSHOTS OF PMS FROM SPIKELUV ABOUT ROLES< RESEARCH ETC BE USED. You may use screenshots if I have clarified rules or gameplay and you wish to help another player, but no PMs where research or roles have been given. You must trust each other-half the fun!!
Also, a clarification question was asked that I thought many of you may be wondering about: Amulet was literally assigned randomly picking a name from ALL players. Thought this was a fun twist. It is like the bonus prize. If spike finds it via pm (guessing a random player each night) then the goodies get a leg up. All about luck. The person who "holds" it does not know they hold it.

RexyB, a scoobie and VampSlayer, a Bringer are now considered dead. They each missed Night 1, which may be acceptable, since it was the beginning. But alas, they continued to miss every round since. I tried to give them time to show up, but my hope is for not, I am afraid. Maybe they missed the bus to town? Either way, RIP, dear ones.

gasps are heard throughout town! The First has struck! willow333, a potential has been killed! Such confusion in town already! This can only add to the chaos! How will this all turn out?!
Round will end tomorrow at the scheduled time. I may not be able to update the thread immediately, so the suspense may have to linger, but all votes must be in by the designated time!
Thank you for the well wishes Lost and Supernatural are helping me heal! hehe

The sun rises and the townsfolk journey out to see what damage has been done. AngelFaith is found by the fountain! Wait, what's up with the eyes? Bringer! The Slayers must have done this! It seems that is the only death of the night! Scoobies research will be revealed shortly. The Bringers must have found someone useful, as they did not kill anyone tonight..... Must stop them before they can use this new knowledge! Who shall we sacrifice for the overall good today??
Day 2 will last from Wed 2:15pm to Sat 2:15pm

Silver, sorry to hear about your loss. I wish you and your wife well.
The sun begins to set and the town seems to have picked their target....oldestbuffygeek, a Potential has been chosen. Unfortunately, no one realized she was a Potential, due to the fact that she never said a word otherwise....or at all.
The town is disappointed. An easy kill would have lifted their spirits! Instead they must now rely on the Slayers to protect and the scoobies to find. And pray that the Bringers don't find them........Night 2 will last from 8:45pm Saturday until 8:45pm Monday

Ok this is unrelated to gameplay so sorry for butting in but I couldn't find anywhere else to mention it. Reading this thread I realize how much thought and effort everybody puts into slaychallenges, and I think that should be recognised. A) I'd like to say a huge thank you to spikeluv, this must take ages to organise and you never even get to play! And B) I think we should consider having a category for best slaychallenger in the forum awards next year. Just an idea.
Thank you and that is a GREAT idea. I will work towards it!
The First has struck!! elenasaur, a Potential has been found dead in the alley across the way. Who are these baddies?!

Finally the sun begins to rise. The town awakes. The townsfolk begin to wander about their new town, checking out the scenery, the available resources. Suddenly, someone is spotted.... Billie Erin!! All slashed up. Wait a minute......her eyes! She was a Bringer!
This night round's research has brought good news for both the Scoobies, who found a fellow Scoobie AND the Bringers, who found a fellow Bringer. Interesting.......
Also, many of you missed the vote this night round. I won't count strikes for that round, but please remember to look and see if you vote during the night. The only players that do not are the First and the Potentials!
DAY 1 will last from 12:45pm Wed until 12:45pm Sat

Wow, that looks complicated but I can't wait to start getting into the game. Spikeluv, can you please tell us how many goodies and baddies we got here? So that we can evaluate our chances!!
Sorry! That was supposed to be in Post 1! Updating now!

Roles are being sent out now! EVERYONE will get a PM. Once you have your PM, you may begin game play.
The night is dark. There are no stars tonight. Evil has found a place to wreak havoc! The evil ones begin working on their devious deeds. The Slayers feel something off and decide to patrol.
NIGHT 1 will last from 11:45am Monday until 11:45am Wednesday.

Night 3 will last from 1:15pm Sunday until 1:15pm Tuesday.
This is a new game. There may be a few quirks this time around, so please be patient and understanding.
Let me know if there is anything you see that may be off kilter. I have looked at it too many times and may be missing something, possibly obvious! hehe
Wanted to give the baddies more of an edge. If it is too much, we will fix next game, so just have some fun with it!! Here we go!

These are the only 2 that can stop The First. During game play, the Slayers will vote with everyone on Day Rounds. During the Night Rounds, the Slayers are hunting for The First. They may attack one player a night, via PM to spikeluv13. If the Slayer finds a Bringer, the Bringer is slayed. If it is a Scoobie or Potential, the attack is void and the reply 'this player may not be killed at this time' will be sent. If it is The First and BOTH slayers vote for The First, then it is game over, goodies win! If just one slayer attacks The First while the other slayer is alive, there will be a roll of dice. If it is an even number, Slayer wins and gets to stay alive (the other Slayer heard your cries for back-up and helped you escape). If odd, The First wins and the Slayer is killed instead (Faith ignored you! Biatch!). If the Slayer wins, the reply will be the same as if it were Potential or Scoobie-this player cannot be killed at this time. If there is only 1 Slayer left, and that Slayer attacks The First, there is a dice battle. Best of 3 wins. If Spike has found the amulet, though, any battle is bypassed and the Slayer has an automatic win! Slayers can die in the following ways: killed by the Day Round mob vote and unanimous/complete Bringer vote. The First: There is one First Evil (think The First lol). Once per Day Round, The First has the power to kill Potentials/Scoobies. This is done through PM to spikeluv13. I know it is slightly different than cannon, but needed to make game-friendly. Every Day Round, The First will PM spikeluv13 with the name of the Potential to kill. If it is a Bringer or Slayer, the reply will read 'player is unable to be killed at this time.' If it is a Potential or Scoobie, that player will be killed immediately and their vote will not count for that day round. During the Night Round, The First hangs out and watches, battling Slayers as necessary. Can only be killed by both Slayers together, Slayer wins battle of 3, Slayer has amulet when attacking. The Harbingers of Death: Bringers vote during the Day Round to blend in with the crowd. Ignore the mutilations, please. Bringers choose nightly via PM to spikeluv13, the victim of the evening. This is done with a vote. If they choose a Scoobie or Potential, they are killed. If they choose a Slayer, that Slayer’s identity is revealed to all the Bringers. If the vote is unanimous and no votes are missing, the Slayer is killed (overpowered by numbers). If they choose The First, they have finally found where their god is and The First's identity is revealed. If they choose a fellow Bringer, the identity is revealed to all Bringers. Bringers may be killed by mob vote and Slayer attack. Scoobies: Scoobies/everyone votes during the Day Round to kill off one player. Scoobies also have the ability to research. Scoobies also vote (via PM to spikeluv) on which player they would like to research. This is done during the NIGHT round, so you will be better informed the next day round. Once I have all the votes, I will reveal the identity to those of you that are Scoobies. I will do this via PM to each of you. Only one identity revealed each NIGHT round, based on majority vote. Scoobies can be killed by mob vote, Bringers, The First, The First lashing out at mob vote. Spike: One player will be considered a Scoobie for gameplay, but has a special ability. In addition to voting for someone to research at night, Spike must also vote for who they think has the amulet. If the amulet is found before Spike is killed, the Slayer attacking The First will bypass the dice roll. Automatic kill. This is very important. One player will unknowingly have the amulet (aka I am picking a random player and you must guess correctly to get the amulet). If the player holding the amulet is killed, the good guys loose out on that advantage. Amulet will be considered broken. All other aspects of game-play is that of a ScoobiePotentials: Think villagers from past challenges. You are sadly, pretty much cannon fodder. Sorry, Potentials. You vote during the day with everyone else. Hide at night. Potentials can die via mob vote, Bringers, The First.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DAY ROUND:
Lasts 72 hours
The First strikes
Mob Vote: *If the player is a Scoobie/Potential/Slayer, one less player for the good guys. *If the player is the LAST Slayer, the game ends and baddies win! *If the player turns out to be a Bringer, one less for the bad guys. *If the player is The First, The First fights back. Instead of being vanquished, The First leashes out and kills 2 Scoobies in its place. However, the identity will be revealed and the Slayers may attack that night round.NIGHT ROUND:
Lasts 48 hours
*Slayers vote to attack The First. *Harbingers vote to kill goodies/find The First. *Potentials hide. *Scoobies vote to research. *Spike votes to research and searches for amulet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RULES/NOTES/FAQ/IMPORTANT:
**No one knows the identity of the others. This helps with the mystery. Once you know identities of the others, alliances can start forming.
**Any questions please ask...nicely.
** All parts were handed out completely randomly!
**YOU HAVE TO PLAY IF YOU SIGN UP! if you have some sort of computer problem, etc. please just let me know asap. If you disappear for 2 consecutive rounds or 3 rounds total throughout the game and don't let me know why, you forfeit your life!
**Everyone that dies will have their status revealed.
**If there is a very close vote or a tie, Some killings may be multiple....as in 2 people will be killed. I roll a die and if it is 1 or 2, both die. 3 or 4, person A is killed. 5 or 6 person B is killed.
**EVERY vote counts.
**MY count is the final count. Hopefully our lists will be the same, but with votes coming in so closely (ie by 1 or 2) My count will be the final decision.
**I am in central time zone
**If The First is killed, all remaining good guys will win and receive Karma. The remaining baddies will get consolation points. Vice-versa if the Slayers all die.
**Any questions feel free to help each other or PM me!
**If you don't miss a round during the game, even if you die, you get karma. I like that. Excused rounds (rounds where you tell me you will need to be away) will not count against you.
**HAVE FUN!
** If someone is cheating and you notify me, you will receive karma! (Privately via PM with proof-like a screenshot)
**When killed you may pop in to keep the gameplay going, say hi to friends, etc but no game info may be shared unless it is explaining rules, etc. NO CHEATING. You may come hang out, but only if it does NOT interfere or alter gameplay in ANY way. IF ANY GAME INFORMATION IS PASSED ON AFTER YOUR DEATH HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED (WHETHER IN GAME THREAD OR IN PM) YOU WILL BE BANNED FROM FUTURE GAMES. So make sure if you are going to share info, you do it before I announce who is dead. It could be you!
**From this point on, screenshots are forbidden in the game. If you wish to use them in your PMs, that is okay, BUT ONLY FROM OTHER PLAYERS, such as seers, etc. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD SCREENSHOTS OF PMS FROM SPIKELUV ABOUT ROLES< RESEARCH ETC BE USED. You may use screenshots if I have clarified rules or gameplay and you wish to help another player, but no PMs where research or roles have been given. You must trust each other-half the fun!!
**If you change your display name, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
**PAY ATTENTION TO THE BLUE! I will leave important updates, game notes, counts, etc in blue. I always use blue on these games. So even if you are just skimming to catch up, etc, READ the blue. It will guide you!

Great game everyone! This was the best one we've had so far by my reckoning. I'm not sure, but I think that I agree with Mathieu. The wolves came pretty close to winning this one (shocking start for the good guys), but they lost again anyway. I do think that the length of the game goes against them a little, but am not sure how it could be improved. I mean, if the wolves couldn't kill one of their own, wouldn't they always get a good guy every night round? Since the good guys don't get that guarantee every day round, wouldn't that be a little unfair? Perhaps if they vote for a wolf, they get to find out that the votee was a wolf, but they don't get to kill anyone that round? That way, the night round becomes either a chance for the wolves to kill a good guy, or a chance to definitively find one of their own, while providing a reprieve for the goodies? What do you guys think? In general, I'd be in favour of playing a game with a little more power given to the bad guys, even experimentally. If they win by miles, well shucks, they deserve a break!
I agree! I would like to give baddies a little more power, but it seems people get very upset when that happens. We could def. try it, and if it doesn't work, tweak it next challenge. The challenges aren't going anywhere. We'll have plenty of time for more! and holy crap, mathieu agreed!!
I am working on some new ideas from some great players (thanks dusktodawn, Rebecca, willowsummers & Miss. Rogueh) I am going to start sign-ups now and it'll be a mystery challenge!!
Locking this thread now. Opening sign0ups, so be on the look-out! Thanks for an awesome game, guys!!

The villagers seize their flavor of the day, lucifurl Will this be the end of the reign of terror or just another massacre?
All of a sudden, there is chaos! The last wolf is making a stand before being sentenced to death! For that and for being the last wolf, +100 karma!
Winners: Iceeh--------SEER Dusktodawn Drusilla cakes dragonweaver
Villagers all got +150 karma and the seer got +50 extra for being a seer! And don't forget your +50 if you had perfect attendance/performance! Excellent job everyone!! Any thoughts? Suggestions? Ideas for next game? We will take a short break to rest and work on a new game, then look for sign-ups coming soon!
