The Sheriff\Doctor\Lawyer\Townsperson and of course...
I thought about puting this thread in Odyssey 105 but it's not a contest. Okay guys I have a cool game to play! It's called "The Killer". How you play is, you could be one of five kinds of people. The Lawyer, the Doctor, the Sheriff, a Townsperson, or of course, the Killer. There is only one person per character except a Townsperson, there can be unlimited amount of those. The objective of the game is to: If you are the Lawyer\Killer it's to "kill" everyone because the Lawyer is friends with the Killer. If you are the Sheriff\Doctor\Townsperson, it's to get rid of the Killer.
The Lawyer has to keep the Killer alive no matter what the cost. The way the game goes is the Killer will PM me and tell me who he\she wants to "kill" and then the Narrator (Me) will say something like "Last night, there was a murder and an innocent person was "killed" and it was... So-and-so!" Well then the Townspeople (Everyone including the Sheriff\Doctor\Lawyer\Killer) know it's not that person and that person is eliminated from the game, so they have to guess who the Killer is. And nobody except the Lawyer knows who the Killer is, so the Killer acts like everyone else to put off suspicion. (Hint: The lawyer may act a little like a bad-acting Killer to keep the real Killer from getting "Killed" by the people\Sheriff, so be on your guard!)
Nobody knows who is who except the Lawyer knows the Killer and vice versa, so you have to guess, by accusing someone. So you say "It was J-Man!" and J-man will of course deny it even if he is the Killer. And if he is, the Lawyer will try to get the blame off of him, by saying something like "No, it was Catbert! Vote for Catbert! It's him!" and accusations will come and then when there is no more accusations we'll vote for someone to get eliminated and the person with the highest vote will get eliminated. And then I will tell you whether or not it was the Killer. If it wasn't, then the Killer gets to kill again, but if it was, then the game is over and we'll decide whether or not we'll play again
. But if your the Sheriff, before I announce who was killed by the Killer, the Sheriff will PM me and tell me who they think the Killer is and I will respond by either saying yes or no. If it's no then we keep on going and the person that got accused does not get eliminated, but if it is then the game is over and the Killer\Lawyer loose and everyone else wins. Anyone can get killed, so be careful.
If your the Doctor, before I announce who got killed you get the chance to "Heal" someone before they get "Killed", and if you guess right, then nobody dies, but if you guess wrong, then the person that got picked by the Killer dies. I will randomly PM people telling them what kind of character they are. And no telling people who you are!! That's cheating! And when you're killed DON'T PEOPLE WHO YOU WERE!!! That helps them narrow it down! So even if the Sheriff\Doctor have been "killed" I will still say "Okay the Sheriff (or Doctor) needs to send in who he thinks it is". There is no award for winning you just get bragging rights. Any questions? Who wants to play? It's free! Sign up now!

"Sonuna" Taranimak ("Sonuna" Sharkquill) has been content lately. She admired own very fine Bed recently. She talked with a parent recently. She talked with a friend recently. She had a good meal recently. She admired a fine tastefully-arranged Desk recently.
She is a citizen of The United States of America. She is a member of The State of Minnesota. She is a member of The Town of Odyssey.
"Sonuna" Taranimak likes Bauxite, Copper, Green jade, the color navy, cloaks, ballistas, cats for their aloofness and hydras for their seven heads. When possible, she prefers to consume Dr Pepper and ramen.
She lives at a relaxed pace. She tends to avoid crowds. She has a fertile imagination. She is completely disorganized. She is very distant and reserved. She tends not to openly express emotions. She needs caffeine to get through the working day.

I too doubt it would work online. And I've mafia a lot and don't remember any lawyer. We played with 2 mafia folks, 1 doctor, 1 sheriff, and several townsfolk.Evil Chick wrote:I've played this game before. It's very cool! And, yes, I do believe it is called Mafia.
I don't know how well it will work online, though.

Trust me, it does work online. Like Sonuna said, it's a very popular game on our school webboard- and it will be easier here, since we actually have a PM system.
sorrowing you must go, and yet you are not without hope
