WWLXXII: Werewolf: Now There's the Truth of It!

[satansaloser2005]

Twas the night before Werewolf and down on the Downs
A game was awaiting, a winner to crown
Those chosen as werewolves would dance over graves
While those with a gift think of dreams, picks, and saves
The ordos would sleep without panic or fright
For they’d know that no villain would take them this Night
And me on my laptop, my Shasta beside
Were plotting narrations for those who would die
When on the admin thread came posts from those wanting
To eat fellow Downers, or go werewolf hunting
To my clock I did look to see what was the time
For I had to clear up the game rules and guidelines
The deadline is set: 3 a.m. GMT
And those votes past the hour will all cease to be
And then I did see that three gifteds would roam
A special role too, with a gift of their own
The werewolves themselves would be four in a pack
Who would send me PMs to choose their attack
For gifteds and lupines alike I did see
Them sending their picks at an hour before 3
Their Night kills, protections, their Simon Says choices
And players to whom they would give their sweet voices
To the game thread they’ll look for narrations each night
In order to see who of them has survived
This game, they will see, will be not like the rest
For survival is based upon who is liked best
And though this is true of many a game
This contest, in fact, will be based upon fame
I suddenly saw all the villagers voting
The less votes received, a feeling foreboding
Each person shall vote for the ones they trust most
Give power to Simon, another make toast
Four votes they receive, not to give more than one
To each of those players who hasn’t yet gone
The votes one receives will be tallied and totaled
And those with the least become legends of old
No talk shall be had here of doubling sacking
(And those that don’t vote for two Days I’ll send packing)
In ties the deaths will be random you see
So to tie two contestants a mistake it would be
The top of each chain at the end of the Day
Shall be Simon Says, and shall have a big say
In what happens Day next, who lives or who dies
And never forget the judges can lie
So be careful in choosing your Simon each Day
For his or her words could cause you to stray
But pick one you must, and in case of a tie
The moddess shall roll a coin or a die
Now do not forget this special role
For it is not known to the one who it holds
The One-Hit Wonder, them you should not fear
Their power is great, and their logic is clear
I saw all of this then I rose from my bed
And decided ‘twas time to play Werewolf instead
The first 16 players who show interest
Shall take part in Werewolf: the Popularity Contest




Rules and regs to be posted shortly. Please don't post until there's actually proper stuff to see. I'll be interested to see what you lot make of it though. Back in a couple minutes (as soon as I stop getting distracted by Wilwa).
