I HEX YE!!!


High in the Rocky Mountains, several kilometers north of civilization, sits stately Opopanax Manor. There, 9 strangers have been called to the reading of his will, for...

Opopanax is Dead

Rules:
-1 of the people gathered here is a killer! They have killed dear Opop, and will continue to kill in order to hide their secret.
-Each player will be given 5 pieces of information about themselves; Name, Occupation, Motive, Weapon of Choice, and Alibi. It is unwise to reveal this information to anyone.
-At the start of each morning 1 piece of info about the killer will be made public.
-Some of the roles in the game will also be given additional information, which will not be made public unless they choose to.
-At any point a player may ##ACCUSE any other player. If the accused is the killer the game will end, if not the accuser will be removed from the game.
-Town wins by accusing correctly, Killer wins when they are the last player standing. This includes a three man LYLO situation. 3 man LYLO will result in an automatic win for the killer. This is done to maintain balance.
-I'm hoping this will be a fairly fast paced game so don't join if you're not going to post. Days will be about 12 hours, but an accusation ends them immediately. There will also be a N0.

This is pretty much a situation where everyone has a vig so most likely we will never even see day 2

Accusing is an interesting mechanic, because it clears both the accuser and the accused. On account of that, the killer has to have a night kill, otherwise we'd know who was clear with five people left standing at the least.

Jump King

The rules say nothing about the killer not being able to accuse. It does say the killer continues to kill though.

But in any case, we'll have a lot of trustworthy information even fairly early into the game. Personally, I recommend taking our time D1, but I can also understand the thrill of a rolling start. Nevertheless, make sure you reveal whatever information you've gathered from night actions before you accuse. It'd be wasteful otherwise.

Plus, it make for cool parlor drama. You lay out your information that you've gathered, and then make a dramatic accusation. I like it. Good job of letting the mechanics enforce the theme, Opop.

But why would the killer accuse? They'd automatically get removed from the game if they do so, unless they self-accuse in which case lol
