| GALAXY CAULDRON ROLEPLAY GAME EVENT: CLUE! Perhaps a picture shall be added here. Join a team of super sleuths as you attempt to solve a mystery… before your life ends! That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, inspired by a recent game of Mafia run by our own Natasha, the Galaxy Cauldron Roleplay Forum proudly presents a version of Mafia where rule 9 has been crossed out with the largest bright red sharpie marker ever made! - Clue Gameplay Rules:
Modified from the “Mafia Gameplay Rules” 1. Don't edit or delete your posts. While this is a roleplay, it also functions similarly to the Mafia game itself. What you have your character says needs to stick, and it’s not like you can rewind a scene, close your character’s mouth and whisper something else for them to say in their ear. This rule stays. 2. Don't attempt to copy and paste or screenshot any messages from me in attempt to prove your role. You may show your invitation image, and attempt to convince others of the information within the background I give you, but none of these shenanigans. I’ll deny it to the end and accuse you of being a screen-shot editing mastermind. 3. Don't discuss the game outside of this sign-up topic, the Clue topic, or any special chatrooms you are assigned to. Aka no cheating. 4. Make your Accusation votes Bold and Red so that they look like this: OMG URANUS DID IT!- In Character, this might look like this:
Sailor Mars stood, her eyes widening at the startling realization that just clicked in her head. "OMG URANUS DID IT." she yelled, pointing her finger at the innocent looking scumbag. 5. Make your Rescissions Bold and Green so that they look like this: On second thought, nvm. Uranus is totes cool in my book.- In Character, this might look like this:
The more the others spoke, the sillier Mars's earlier thoughts seemed to be. She had jumped to an irrational conclusion... else, the sane one that no one else had understood yet. Either way, she seemed outnumbered and that wasn't smart. "On second thought, nevermind. ^^' Uranus is in the clear in my book.... ((you can use your own language if you wish ^^')) 6. Be active. If you choose not to have your character speak in your posts that's fine but still vote and still use your detection skills if you have any. If you do not have time to play this game (and be able to dedicate at least 20 minutes a day to it) then don't sign up. 7. Once you have been KO’d you’re dead. No more talking. Sorry. I hope you kept up a steady conversation flow with the group or at least your investigation partner. … also I hope your investigation partner wasn’t the killer. OH WELL WE’LL SEE~ 8. You can claim to be whatever role you want but you must back up your claim with proof if you want people to believe you. Especially if someone else claims to be the same thing. Wait for good times to reveal yourself and don't jump the gun. 9. THIS IS NOT A ROLEPLAY. The characters and events are only to add flavor and confusion to new players. Do not attempt to roleplay. AHA. 9. THIS IS A ROLEPLAY. The characters are there to add flavor, the events attempt to point you towards the killer. ATTEMPT TO ROLEPLAY. You don’t need to have 100+ word posts, you don’t need to create full sentences, you can just *runs into the room and sees the dead body* OMFG THEY KILLED CHIBI MOON, THOSE FISHTERDS! *faints*, but remember to try to stay somewhat in character. I’ve kept personalities tight to what we know of our senshi to help! 10. During the lights-on times you can discuss ideas and suspicious activities with the whole group and point fingers at who you think the “murderer” is, and that “murderer” can be tied up for the next lights-off phase, or knocked out for the rest of the game. When you split up into partners to search, however, you can only speak to your partner(s). Lights-off phases will come randomly, and that’s where some people will discover clues and others will be KO’d. We’ll get the hang of it together. 11. During the lights-off phase the “murderer” will have an opportunity to K.O. a party guess, the opportunity decided on a random roll. Also, random party guests might stumble across a clue, which they can choose to share with the group or hoard to themselves. During the lights-off phase, you can choose to write a passage in your character's diary about the recent events going on. You can write clues you find in there if you choose. 12. A player’s role will be revealed through clues after they’ve been K.O.’d ((because it’s not like after someone gets knocked out they drop a character sheet full of information. … their diary would be found by someone else or something. SO EVEN AFTER YOU KNOCK SOMEONE OUT YOU WON’T IMMEDIATLEY KNOW YOU’RE SAFE UNTIL SOMEONE FINDS THEIR DIARY.)) 13. Some people may be liars, some people may be mean, some people may be stupid and some people may be whiners. Regardless, this is a game where how you act is a tactic. Think carefully before you post and don't take offense to anything that is said here. This is a game. 14. There can and will be times where no accusations are made and no majority is reached, so no one will be tied and KO’d. 15. If there is not a majority reached, it can be decided that the person with the most votes be tied up for the night, but not knocked out. 16. If there is ever equal or more “murderers” to party guests, the “murderers” will win. 17. I hate when people cheat. Cheating is defined however I want to define it. If I believe you have cheated, I will SHARPIE THE WORD 'CHEATER' ON YOUR FOREHEAD AND KICK YOU OUT OF THE MURDER HOUSE. - Note to Players wrote:
- Warning: Clue might not be as cutthroat as Mafia as there are personality buffers as far as characters are concerned, but it is still a game with a high potential for intensity, as it involves accusations (sometimes wild and unfounded), strong words, and even, at times, aggression towards other characters. This is an official note of caution that this game is for people with really thick skins that fully understand that what happens in game stays in game and anything that occurs in that game thread is not a reflection of the player or of the forum, just the nature of the game itself: in other words, there is a giant "No personal offense meant" tag across everything mafia-related.
If for any reason you believe this game might not be the game for you, sit out and watch a few games before deciding to sign up. - Consequences of Breaking Clue Conduct wrote:
- if any player starts acting out of line (even within the normal scope of reactions to the game) it is understood that the game will be locked for a short period of time, wherein the players involved can cool off and apologize, or decide it's too intense and back away from the game thus creating an auto-lynch situation. By signing up you agree to these terms and conditions, knowing that if further actions need be taken you will be banned from playing Mafia in the future.
WELCOME TO THE FIRST EXPERIMENTAL GAME.As the rules suggest, Clue will be run a bit differently from Mafia games. In this game there will be one or two “murderers” (their actual title will be released with the plot), one “Protector” running in the doctor role, and everyone is an investigator, but in a different way than per usual. I’ll roll a random die every night and the party guest connected to that die will get a clue based on where they and their partner are sent via PM. They can choose to share the information or keep it to themselves, choose to write it in their diary, or even give out false clues, but every night at least one person will discover a clue to who the “murderer” is, or they are not, and why they’re going around KO’ing people. Diaries will be used in this game to keep track of what you learn and who you disclosed the information to. Diaries might be the only true in-character thing in the game; you can write a diary entry every night, or only when you learn a clue, or to write your suspicions; when you die your Diary might be the only way to pass on pertinent information. ... or leave everyone scratching their heads. The only people who must write in their diary are our "murderers"; they only need one entry, just something that heavily hints that they have changed. I'll send everyone their first diary entry to give you something to go off of, and what your character knows before the party! Just like in the game of Clue, there will be different rooms to investigate, as well as different ‘weapons’ used to KO a person, but rather than trying to find all of these out, just like in the Movie “Clue”, you’re simply trying to figure out who’s behind all of this and determine whether they have any accomplices you need to watch out for. I’ll be releasing game sheets similar to the sheets in Clue that you can choose to use, as well. So! Who’s in? and have any questions?

You were probably a little too happy to cross off Rule 9 weren't you, Uranus? :bunnykonataeye XD Lol! I just see that rule and go " but it could be so fun..." It'll be pretty light on the RP side, really; the more the idea has evolved and with the diary work that'll be going on, the actual game conversations don't actually need much embellishment at all - you don't really have to describe a whole lot of anything if you don't want to. For example, two totally acceptable posts could be something like this: Say it's night three and Sailor Lead Crow has just been found murdered. - Sailor Aluminum Seiren wrote:
- The moment the lights came on, Aluminum Seiren heard a scream. Nervously she ran with her search partner, Sailor Tin Nyanko, towards the sound, at once wondering who had been nixed and thankful that it hadn't been herself. As she rounded the corner she saw Lead Crow passed out on the carpet, a syringe of purple goop poking out of her back. She felt terrible. "Oh no... Sailor Lead Crow!"
- Tin Nyanko wrote:
- *rushes back into the living room* Dang. Lead Crow. Four of us are down - I found Papillion's diary and she was innocent, so woops, right, Galaxia? *side-eyes Galaxia suspiciously* You were the one pushing for us to knock her out last round. Have anything to say about that? Neaow?
And Thunderdome, you's in! Supes cool. |

| Hooray! The way this first game is written it's meant for 10 (maybe 11 if necessary) people, and we've already got 9! Excellent news, mwahahahahha. The first game is small-ish because I'm still working out kinks in how this will play; ^^' even if all the clue aspects crash and burn and then explode into sparkly confetti that turns out to be tiny scraps of metal that irritate everyone's skin and people are running around screaming and coughing and covering their eyes while trying not to breathe in the painful air and its sharp ninja-star like metallic components, the game will just dissolve into a rp'd mafia game, so we should be good either way, right? Except for that whole shrapnel business, which is easily avoidable by changing the setting into a world where everyone is robots. Because then tiny airborn metallic scraps would be more like it's raining icecream (If alll the raindrops were lemon drops and gum drops...) than like it was raining painful and itchy death. ANYWAY ONE MORE PERSON AND WE'LL GET THIS WAGON-TRAIN A'MOVIN. |

>D Yessss, right after the tenth person has joined (and I see it) I'll be sending out PM's with roles and Diaries (plus diary information) and creating the game board. Fingers crossed I don't forget anything. XD !! OH BUT ONE THING I DID FORGET WAS TO MAKE THE CLUE SHEETS/Logic Boards/whatever. Do you guys want me to make those, or do you want to make your own? (If so, I suggest using excel) ((I'll be back after running some errands))((C'mon tenth person!)) |

Will we being role-playing with Sailor Moon characters? |

| Yay! I can't wait!
I think that if the sheets are like what I'm remembering, even a notepad document will work. If the sheets are like Clue sheets, then you just need to check off whenever you've confirmed someone innocent, right? |

Or if you wanted to note where you were each night and who partnered with whom and who died, what happened, what clues were revealed, etc., but then all of that could easily be thrown into your diary. |

| Okay. So maybe do you mind posting a picture of what a clue sheet looks like in the main thread? Because I've never played clue before. I can just use a notebook if it is that simple, but just a basic layout will help.
Thunderdome and I will be out today. I have an ob appointment and bills to pay, but we should be back around 7 pm pacific time. Many hugs! |

| Sure! The one I linked to is fan-made, but it's close enough to the original Clue score card. The Clue score card is pretty simple- the only reason there are multiple boxes next to a character's name is so that you can reuse the paper each time you play the game.
I'm not sure if the score card for this game will be as simple as the Clue card, though. |
