Moon Gin 5,332 Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) Hello and welcome to "Sherlock vs The Rippers" game thread. As your Game Master (GM), I will explain the details of this game and if you are interested, you can sign up for this game here. This is a long game and will last for approximately 4-5 days. You don't have to be online all the time though, and you will have plenty of time to strategize and make your move in the game. SCHEDULE The game is scheduled to start on Thursday, 5 July 2018 at 2am UTC or 11am KST. A countdown clock is posted on the bottom part of OP to help players to check the start of the game with their time zone. PLAYERS There will be 16 players divided into several roles, which are: Sherlock Holmes (1) Dr. Watson (1)Maniac Ripper (1)Psycho Ripper (1)Baker Street Residents (12)The roles are kept secret from other players, except Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson who know each other and the two Rippers who also know each other. Players will communicate with GM via a special PM created for each of them. Players are forbidden from using the content of this PM as receipt and post it on the game thread. NOON AND NIGHT The game will last for several days, and each day will be divided into 2 parts, each lasting for 12 hours - NOON and NIGHT. NIGHT begins at 2pm UTC or 11pm KST each day and lasts for 12 hours until 2am UTC or 11am KST of the following day. During NIGHT period: Sherlock Holmes can use his ability to INVESTIGATE and unravel the identity of one of the other players via PM. However he can only use this skill for other players who are in the same NIGHT LOCATION as him. GM will inform Sherlock Holmes which other players are around his vicinity and therefore can be investigated via PM. Bear in mind that all concealed players cannot be revealed by investigation. Dr. Watson can use his ability to PROTECT one of the other players via PM and hence cannot be killed. However he can only use this skill for other players who are in the same NIGHT LOCATION as him. GM will inform Dr. Watson which other players are around his vicinity and therefore can be protected via PM. Dr. Watson also cannot use his ability on the same player for two consecutive times. Rippers can use their ability to KILL one of the other players each via PM. However they can only use this skill for other players who are in the same NIGHT LOCATION as each of them. GM will inform each Ripper which other players are around his/her vicinity and therefore can be killed via PM. Bear in mind that all protected or immune players will survive the attack of the Rippers. In addition to this ability, each of the Rippers (Maniac and Psycho) has a unique ability that can be activated through special item (more on that below). At the DAWN when the NIGHT shifts into NOON, victims of the Rippers will be announced alongside their identity and the NIGHT LOCATION where their corpse found. These players will be eliminated from the game. NOON begins at 2am UTC or 11am KST each day and lasts for 12 hours until 2pm UTC or 11pm KST of the same day. During NOON period: All players will get a chance to hunt and find some special items hidden at NOON LOCATION. . Each NOON LOCATION will contain a quiz and the first player to solve a quiz at a particular place will win a special item hidden on that place (more on that below). All players must also VOTE via PM on the trial to identify who is the Ripper among them and shall receive the capital punishment. Alongside this vote, they also need to inform GM which NIGHT LOCATION they will stay at for the following NIGHT (more on that below). ​At the DUSK when the NOON shifts into NIGHT, the verdict of the trial will be announced alongside the detail of the votes and the most voted player will get capital punishment by hanging. The identity of the player will also be revealed and he/she will be eliminated from the game. LOCATION LOCATION plays an important role in this game as it affects how the players with special role can use their ability during NIGHT and which special items can be won during NOON. The numbers of LOCATION will be reduced as the game progresses and more players are eliminated. The NIGHT LOCATION includes Old Cemetery, Star Observatory, Grand Theater, Royal Tower, and Riverside Residence. Players must pick one of the available NIGHT LOCATION via PM alongside their trial VOTE during the NOON time. They will spend the NIGHT entirely at that place and cannot switch places until DAWN. Failure of submitting the NIGHT LOCATION choice will result the respective player to be randomly placed by GM. The NOON LOCATION includes Garden Restaurant, Groceries Market, City Hall, Police Station, and General Hospital. Players can pick one of the available NOON LOCATION via PM throughout the NOON period. They can change and switch places for maximum 1 time during this period. SPECIAL ITEM To win a special item, a player must be the first one to solve a quiz in a particular NOON LOCATION. Players must pick a NOON LOCATION via PM first before they will receive the quiz from GM. A player can switch for maximum 1 time from a NOON LOCATION to another NOON LOCATION throughout the period. He/she however can only win one special item in a particular day.The special items will be randomly hidden at the NOON LOCATION and only will be revealed to the players attempting to solve the quiz at that particular NOON LOCATION. Each day there will be a reset and the item hidden at a LOCATION may not be the same as the previous one. These special items are: CLUE – giving any non-Sherlock Holmes player the ability to INVESTIGATE a player who shares the same NIGHT LOCATION, on the following NIGHT. If Sherlock Holmes finds this item, he can INVESTIGATE two other players who share the same NIGHT LOCATION, on the following NIGHT. This item is not transferable and valid for a day only. PARDON – giving exemption to any player who receives the most votes during the NOON trial and the next most voted player will be hanged instead. A player who holds this item must inform GM that he/she will use this item via PM before the verdict is announced. Once the verdict of a trial is announced, this item is no longer eligible to be played for that day, and the most voted player will be hanged, even if he/she holds this item. This item is transferable and has no limit on validity. SHIELD – giving any player the immunity from the attack of the Rippers on the following NIGHT. This item is transferable and valid for a day only. KNIFE – giving the ability to Maniac Ripper to kill two other players who share the same NIGHT LOCATION as him/her on the following NIGHT. This item is transferable and valid for a day only. TRAP – giving the ability to Psycho Ripper to set a trap on a particular NIGHT LOCATION for the following NIGHT. The Psycho Killer must inform the GM before the NIGHT via PM if he/she wants to use this item. GM will inform the Psycho Ripper which players stay at the NIGHT LOCATION of the trap and he/she can pick one of them to be the victim of the trap. This allows the Psycho Ripper to kill a player at a NIGHT LOCATION without having to be present there. However, when using this item, the Psycho Ripper cannot use his/her normal KILL ability. This item is transferable and has no limit on validity. MAP – giving any player the ability to check which players were present on a particular LOCATION on the previous NIGHT or NOON. This item is not transferable and valid for a day only. DOUBLE – giving any player the ability to cast two votes on the current ongoing NOON trial voting. This item is not transferable and valid for a day only. CONCEAL - giving any player the ability to conceal their identity and hence cannot be investigated. This item is transferable and valid for a day only.
