Murderers in Ponyville
Introduction:
A current resident of ponyville is slowly killing its inhabitants. Every day, more and more ponies are disappearing from the streets. Deciding to take action, the ponies vote out members of the community, one by one. However, will it be enough to stop the threat?
Game Overview:
The game starts when ten (or more, but it has to be an even number) ponies join the game. The Game Leader is then decided by which name is next in the queue, and he/she PMs the player roles out to the participating members. These roles include:
Killer Pony: This player is the target of all the other players. During each round, before the Voting Stage, the Killer Pony PMs their target to the Game Leader. Despite this, the Killer Pony still votes during the voting stage. It's recommended (and warned) that this pony should and probably will try to remain anonymous in the group and act natural.
Guard Pony: The guard pony's role is to protect a certain pony. At any point in the round, the Guard Pony can PM the Game Leader the pony he/she wants to protect. The protected pony is protected from the Killer Pony's attacks. However, if the Guard Pony doesn't PM the round leader before the Killer does, it's effects are null.
Witness Pony: There are two witness ponies. These ponies act like the citizen ponies and don't have an ability they can use to protect/kill another member, but witnessed a key event or has a key fact that points to the identity of the killer. They aren't allowed to reveal their role nor their hint, but may accuse anypony as much as they want, and convince others to do the same.
Citizen Pony: These ponies are completely regular. At least 60% of the players fall into this category. These players don't do anything except for during the Voting Stage, when they post their vote in the thread on who they think the Killer Pony is.
Average Round:
Start of Round: The Guard Pony has until the Killer Pony sends in his PM to decide who to protect.
Kill: The Game Leader writes a theatrical version of the kill and posts it in the thread after he recieves the PM from the Killer Pony. Whether or not there are any hints in the text pointing towards the killer is completely up to the writer; the text is mostly made to be enjoyed.
Voting Stage: All ponies post who they think the killer is in the thread. The killer also posts in the thread but tries to draw attention to somepony else by voting for another pony.
Banishment: The pony with the most votes is banished from the round. The Game Leader also writes a theatrical version for this.
End of Round: Self-explanatory.
