    COSMIC HORROR CUL-DE-SAC

    Hosted by benguino and Charmoeleon

    Summary: A cosmic-horror themed game that takes place in a cul-de-sac. You can only talk to your neighbors (who will change throughout the game) and public communication is very limited. Players are randomly placed into houses each phase, with some houses temporarily granting players special actions.

    Setup:
    9 players
    7 Vanilla Town
    2 Vanilla Cultists (Wolves)
    Permanent Seer, Doctor, Communer (see mechanics)

    Mechanics:
    • Limited Communication: In this game, players will be placed in different houses along the cul-de-sac (1 house per player), only able to communicate in private with their next-door neighbors. Players in other houses will not be able to hear these conversations directly but may pass info along the chain in hopes of spreading information amongst everyone. Players (including wolves) will not know who everyone else's neighbors are, nor the position of their house in the cul-de-sac (unless they are in one of the houses at the end of the cul-de-sac).
    • Houses: Players will find themselves randomly placed in a new house at the start of every night phase. Houses are aligned in a circle, giving everyone two neighbors except for the houses at the end of the cul-de-sac.
      • End Houses: The end houses are separated by the road, meaning that they cannot communicate with each other, leaving them with only one neighbor to talk to. However, these end houses grant special actions to the player who finds themselves inside, allowing them to assume a role (Doctor/Seer) for the current night/next day phase. These end houses will stay for the entirety of the game and can be inhabited by either a town or wolf player. There is only one Doctor and one Seer at any given time.
      • Communer: One of the houses not located on the end of the cul-de-sac will be the Communer house. The player that finds themselves in this house assumes that role for the current night/next day phase, and will find themselves having a closer connection to the entity, allowing them to Mind Meld (see below) more than other players. The Communer is guaranteed a grand total of 5 Mind Melds which they can use during the night phase that they receive the role and the following day phase. The Communer house will also stay for the entirety of the game and can be inhabited by either a town or wolf player.
    • Mind Meld: The cosmic entity is slowly worming its way into everyone's minds. At the start of the day phase, non-Communer players will randomly be assigned 1 or 2 messages that may be sent through the entity to be broadcast to all players. These messages cannot be sent during the night phase (unless they are the Communer), nor do they carry over to the following day phase. As the messages are filtered through the entity, they will be anonymous. Messages must be kept short to protect the player's mind from being overwhelmed (280 characters). Images, videos, and links are not allowed in mind meld posts.
    • Voting: Votes will be made in the main game thread. Unlike mind melds, votes are public and not anonymous. Votes do not count towards your mind-meld allotment for the phase, so you can vote, unvote, and revote as many times as you like. Vote posts may ONLY contain a vote (e.g. [twgv ]benguino[/twgv ]), with no other information attached.
    Seer: Only receives alignment
    Doctor: Are allowed to save themselves

    Cardflips: Alignment-Only
    OOTC: On, With Neighbors Only
    Nighttalk: Off
    Wolf Chat: Always On
    Wolf Kill: Compulsory (Will be randomized if no choice sent)
    Phases: 72h Day 0, 48h Days, 24h Nights
    Votes: Public
    Insta: On
    KITB: On
    Phantoms: Off


    At the start of the night phase, three players will be randomly selected amongst all remaining players (including wolves). The roles of doctor, seer, and communer will be randomly distributed between the three players. The seer, doctor, and communer will then immediately receive a notification regarding their respective roles. At the end of the night phase, after the wolves submit their wolf kill, if the seer is still alive, they will be placed in the first house (in the following day phase). If the doctor is still alive, they will be placed in the last house. If the communer is still alive, one of the non-end houses will be randomly selected to be the communer house and the communer will occupy that house. All remaining players who have not been assigned a role in the night will randomly occupy the remaining the unoccupied houses. Note that since it is possible for a seer or doctor to be killed in the night that they receive their role, it is possible for a player that did not receive a role to occupy an end house in the following day phase (meaning they will only have one neighbor).

    Example: 6 players (A,B,C,D,E,F) are left at the start of night phase, with only A being a wolf. Players A, C, and F are randomly selected and receive the roles of doctor, seer, and communer respectively. Player A, a doctor, chooses to save no one since they are also a wolf. Player A decides to send their wolf kill to Player C (the seer). The houses for the following day phase are labeled H1, H2, H3, H4, H5 (since there will be 5 remaining players after the wolf kill). Player A, the doctor, occupies the last house H5. Amongst the non-end houses (H2, H3, H4), the communer house is randomly chosen to be H4 and player F (the communer) will occupy it. Since the seer died in the night, the end-house H1 is unoccupied. The remaining players B, D, E who have not yet been assigned a house are randomly assigned amongst the remaining unoccupied houses H2, H3, H1 respectively. The final house occupations are:
    H1: Player E
    H2: Player B
    H3: Player D
    H4: Player F (communer)
    H5: Player A (wolf, doctor)

    This creates the following communication chain of players: E - B - D - F - A, with players only being allowed to communicate with their neighbors in the following day phase.

Upon being investigated in the night by any number of cops, the Master Wolf will clear all investigations as an innocent member of town and then lose the protection of his attorney forever.

    Your team-mates are names. You may talk to them here during night phase only.

    You have a scared attorney with one final trick up his sleeve that will protect you during ONE night from any number of cop investigations.

      wow.

      Freezin and Charmenguin came up with some really creative concepts, this is crazy


      FreezinIce how would resolving the different time effects work as host? it seems like it's almost impossible to host effectively

        It will be a challenge to host but I'm confident I can handle it. The answer practically will be a few notepad documents tracking different stuff and my intimate knowledge of the setup

          Also all these setups appeal to me in different ways. This is going to be a hard vote

              I'll also vote for normal after the last couple games of not-quite-werewolf, though the other two were very tempting and I hope to see them run next

                  I would like to play Ben and Charm's game most but if people want something more normal first I think doing sunfan's game then Ben's next would be good

                  Freez's game intrigues me but I feel like my brain would set on fire

                  And Wolfe's just seems like a lot of wolves (I know it's probably balanced for this but still)

                    I think I might make some very, very minor tweaks to my c9+++, at the very least there should always be 3 wolves instead of sometimes 2, that's just kind of obvious and I regret that I didn't realize that at the time I first made changes.

                      I'm glad to hear people are interested in my and char's game! ^v^

                      I do understand if people want to first return to a more traditional game, especially given the last few games/turbos. I'm in no rush to host.

                      Freezin's game sounds pretty cool. i feel like it's gonna also fuck with our minds as well as we all try to internalize the implications of all the mechanics and potential decisions xP

                      Shado, I'm assuming you got some good ideas for flavor text also prepared? I did really enjoy the flavoring you did for the trust fall game.
