Well I was shown to be foolish!

I should have caught on that King-aligned shouldn't have meant town though.

I thought Ecco was just going to do random stuff. I didn't expect something so formal. I tried to turbo the game asap while it was small, but having it be larger would have actually helped. Notes for the next person to spring this onto anyone.

Hooray! Everyone should have their role PMs; check your inboxes and emails. Thank you for being patient with me!


For reference, all the role PMs look something like this:

A Sample Role PM posted:

Player - Character Name - Flavor Title (alignment-aligned role)
Some stuff in italics. It is mostly flavor, like who you are, why you're here. Your motivation. Feel free to roleplay; I love it.
You are a townie! You seek to liberate your city and thwart the King's Assassins, and as such you win when all scum players are eliminated from the game. You have the normal town powers of posting and voting in the thread. / You are an assassin! You have been sent here to quell the rebellion in this town, and as such win when the scum have unassailable control over the vote or nothing can stop the same.
Additionally, here are some other powers that you might have, if any!
You are a role title and you are alignment-aligned.

Character names are generated randomly using various easy-to-find internet programs, as well as random Wikipedia articles and my own creativity.


Flips will look like this:

:s: Player Name, Character Name, Flavor Title (alignment-aligned role), died in a flavor-specific way. :s:

Example:

:s: Varinn, Ana de la Lorca, Leader (town-aligned ecco cop), was stabbed to death night 0. :s:


The game should be beginning shortly!

The death of Ana left a huge hole in the hearts of the town. Ana recited poetry that helped inspire the town to "take off the shackles of Kings" and was elected by popular vote to be the leader until the revolution was complete and the King's armies were defeated. But even though she may be dead, her memory and message of love and redemption will forever live on. And the words of her poetry will be the last thing her murderers will hear as they swing from the gallows!

:s: Varinn, Ana de la Lorca, Leader (town-aligned ecco cop), was stabbed to death night 0. :s:

It is now, finally, Day 1.
:h: With 21 players alive it takes 11 votes to be executed.
:d: Day 1 deadline: Tuesday, March 24th, ~11PM EST.

Have at it.

Hello dudes and dudette (sorry anonnarco), I have a very busy social calendar today, so I can't really answer any questions you may have about the game etc. until later, so just be patient!

I am going to wait out the weekend and come Monday morning if a player has not yet posted I will assume they died irl and will seek their replacement!

Okay and break!

I don't see that ever really happening. It's a lot of talk but the country won't vote FN especially if you look at the demographics it just won't go that way. Apathetic as they may be about voting the majority would come out to vote against them as they did in what 2002? She may be elected if they really stopped being so right wing, but then it won't really be them. Every FN run town has usually gone down the shitter since they really don't know how to govern.

Wouldn't one as a stump say they are a stump? Because if I understand it right their job is just to make discussion?

Also take my views on French politics with a salt shaker on hand because I really don't know much about it but their my skewed perspectives of the company I keep. I really need to learn more about French politics and government. Took me like 6 years to finally get involved in the US system and having to start all over again is a bit disheartening. If anyone wants to give me a crash course French civics course please go ahead. That and/or EU parliament/government, which I don't get at all (and I don't think they do either.)
