It's a cold, dreary night in the Antarctica base. Everyone suspects someone to be that...Thing. R.J MacReady and his glorious mullet comes up with a brilliant idea that this Thing are all trying to survive on their own and that single cells will react to a hot needle, but given the tensions, no one will be willing enough to submit to the test. It's up to the science team to band together and eliminate The Thing before it kills everyone!
(Please read the Rules as there is a mechanic for town that will be needed).
Rules
Spoiler
1.The moderator is always right. Do not try and argue with them. However we are all human and we all make mistakes. The moderator will try and fix any mistake he or she may have made.
2. Do not edit/delete previous posts. Whatever you say goes into historical record.
3. Do not quote any PM's you receive from the moderator or another player. You may say your name, role, associated abilities. This is a serious offence and could earn you a mod-kill, and/or a blacklist from future games.
4. The game will not be discussed outside this thread, unless your role specifically says you can.
5. Lynch ‘votes’ and ‘unvotes’ must be in bold [color=#0000FF][b]Blue[/b][/color]. Blood test votes will be in bold [color=#FF0000][b]Red[/b][/color]. If they are not, they will not be tallied. You must first unvote and then vote to change your vote from someone. Mods may change this according to their wishes. IE: [color=#0000FF][b]Vote Rooginan[/b][/color]. Blood Test (or just BT) [color=#FF0000][b]BT Sonic[/b][/color].
6. Blood Testing is [b]NOT[/b] a lynch. Town will vote to check a persons "blood" to see if they are The Thing.
7. Lynching requires a majority of the total votes, once the majority has been reached any unvotes will not be counted. The majority is half the players alive +1.
8. You may vote ‘no lynch’ to end the day without a death.
9. Lengths of days depend on moderators. Usually they are indefinite until the game starts dragging and then the moderator enforces a deadline.
(I will implement a deadline if there is a lack of direction/deadlock).
10. Lengths of nights depend on moderator. Try and send the actions earlier if possible, and save everyone time. It's a hassle for the moderator to pm everyone who hasn't sent in an action. (Nights will last for 48 hours, regardless if you sent a night action or not).
11. Once your death scene has been posted, it's over for you. You can no longer post anything related to the game. Whining is alright, **Voices from beyond the grave** are alright, as long as nothing of substance is revealed. This means you can post something like "Damn you mafia!" or "Oh well. Go town!" but you cannot post and add to the discussion. This is a serious offence.
12. Be attentive and active in the game. You will be replaced if you don't post. If something prevents you to participate for a long period of time, announce it here or via PM. Help everyone's enjoyment of the game by being active and sending your actions promptly. (Given the small player count and lack of reserves, I may just end up modkilling if there is a lack of posting).
13. You cannot talk at night. You can do joke votes like "zzzzzz" if you want but don't let it get out of hand. Different moderators have different tolerance levels. (I generally don't like it too much, but I don't mind the occasional joke).
14. If you have any questions or doubts, send a private message to the moderator and ask for help. It would be much worse to remain unsure about your role, mafia rules, whatever than to ask the moderator and then understand.
15. This is the basic list of rules. Moderators will have their own specific changes or additions to rules. Make sure to check them.
16. Have fun!
