I was pondering this thought as it would make an interesting basis for RP. I'm thinking we have a bunch of sub-30 year olds (at least maturity wise for all you people playing dragons and other things of indeterminate age) at summer camp, and at night somebody goes about eating people for the plot. Sure, that's a throwaway, what about gameplay?<br/><br/>"Pred"=obvious<br/>"Prey"=obvious<br/>"Gastrologist"=cop, police, detective, sheriff<br/>"Insta-Reformer"=healer, medic, pancake, senzu bean, whatever you call it<br/><br/>Good! But how does the game go about? This is the hard part...<br/><br/>We're going to need an opt-out system for all the regulars to say that they aren't interested in playing before it starts so we don't wait for anybody as nobody can join mid game. Also, we are probably going to need an anonymity system that prevents character's personalities from being publicized and all night-time eatings going through me so I can patch up any accidental clues such as gender. This way, people will be eaten but not know necessarily what ate them should they be insta-reformed (it was going to be just the reformer but I knew nobody would join,<span style="font-style: italic">PANSIES</span><img alt=":P" src="./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif" title="Razz"/>). For example, "Alice taunts Bob with her long canine mawshot" would become "Pred taunts Bob with its elongated and somewhat narrow mawshot". If Bob is to be IR'd later on, he will have only a slightly better knowledge of whodunit than the unscathed prey.<br/><br/>So Pred(s) play, Pred(s) eat somebody by PMing me who they eat, I send the most likely edited PM of their approach to the player of who they eat (who will also be kept anonymous as all characters go to my PM inbox), Player responds, et cetera, through the system. I then ask the Gastrologists and IRs who they will ask me about (if they are pred or not, all I can give is yes/no)/who they will insta-reform (this is completely blind and a guessing game). When it is over, I post a report on the main thread featuring who died (or didn't die) and a bogus story. All characters (or players, haven't decided here yet) will begin to debate whodunit, and after a vote is held on the ever-changing poll somebody's character is eliminated and taken down from the list at the beginning.<br/><br/>Is that everything? Did I make myself clear? Is there anything you would change?<br/><br/>Also, it should go without saying that there will be a character limit to be determined, though the anonymity system gets complicated with more than one.
