Rules

Gameplay

  • Day phases will last 48 hours, or until curtailed by an execution.
  • The execution will be decided by means of Majority + Plurality. If a simple majority of all living players are voting for somebody, the day will end early and they will be executed. Otherwise, the player with the most votes will be executed at hte end of the day.
  • If at the end of the day the votes are tied, a random player among the tied votes will be executed.
  • Voting to execute nobody is a valid vote. If this vote reaches majority or has the plurality of votes, nobody will be executed.
  • Night phases will last 24 hours, however they may be shortened or extended slightly to keep EoD constant.
  • Days will begin and end at 18:00 PM BST unless otherwise stated.
  • The Mafia will communicate via a discord server, which will be publicised at the end of the game unless a member of the Mafia objects.
  • The Mafia have an assigned factional kill, use of which is not compulsive.

Setup

  • The setup, at this time, has not yet been designed.
  • When you sign up, please privately send the host the name of a fictional character (i will give you leeway on this requirement if itā€™s entertaining), and two other backup choices, in case you pick the same as somebody else. Please do not discuss these choices anywhere until the game begins.
  • Using those names, I will create the setup according to these parameters:
    • 1 - Allignments will be randed independently of name choices.
    • 2 - I will then construct a setup where all players have the randed allignment and abilities and rolename based on one of their character choices. I will attempt to use your first choice, but may use backup choices if the setup requires abilities incompatabile with your first choiceā€™s abilities.
    • 3 - All players in the game will be either Town or Mafia.
    • 4 - The game will not be bastard, however it may contain some elements on the boundary. If youā€™re expecting a vanilla-like game, I honestly do not know why youā€™re even considering joining a Upick.

Example Rolecard

Joycat

All will fight. All will betray. All will fall.
All will be one.

None of you are where you are supposed to be.

Special Mechanics

Dark Votecount

  • Certain players in the game are Darkvoters. At the end of each day, every Darkvoter who is not voting for the person who got executed will change their Darkvote to the player they are voting.
  • By default, a player may only be Darkvoting one player at a time, as with regular votes.
  • The Dark Votecount is hidden by default.
  • The effects of the Dark Votecount are unknown, but overall having more votes on the Dark Votecount is negative for your health.

SHEEP

  • At the start of each day, a number of questions will be asked. Each player may, in their rolecard, submit an answer to each of these questions.
  • Players will gain points depending on how many other people choose the same as them. Each player who chose the same as you is worth 1 point.
  • Gaining a high amount of points may lead to Prizesā„¢, which may make your displays of conformity worth it. Maybe.
  • The results of the event will not be revealed to anyone, unless otherwise stated. Players may still be informed about receiving prizes.
  • Discussion of your choices in the event is strictly prohibited.

Both of these mechanics will leave play during XyLo and may be disabled by other means.

This will be each and evey one of you. We have gathered each of you to show you what it means to be one. From plane after plane, welcome to the Phyrexian Arena. Your cooperation is appreciated, though unexpected. Your death is inevitable.

It appears that each of you has been dragged from their respective plane of existence to do battle. But for what purpose? Is there a purpose? The nightmare you stand inā€¦ This must be New Phyrexia.

The host is being really predictable, isnā€™t she?
