Rules -

  • Do not, under any circumstances, reveal any information to any player regarding this game if you are no longer alive.
  • Do not quote Private Messages from me; paraphrase. And no, replacing second-person pronouns with first-person pronouns does not count as paraphrasing.
  • Do not edit your posts; double post if necessary. I will mod-kill any player that edits a post. Take this as your only warning.
  • Vote towards a lynch by typing Vote lynch <name>, where <name> is the name of the player you are voting for. You do not need to type Unvote, or [Change] alongside a newer vote. I will always accept votes even with a wrong format, however, it is not my responsibility if I miss them by mistake. Failure to vote results in nothing but shame.
  • You must post at least 10 times per day phase. Failure to comply will result in a warning and a mod-block at the first offense. Continued absconding will be dealt with accordingly. If you think you might not be able to meet the requirement at any given phase, let me know in advance and you will not be affected by the repercussions.
  • If you believe that I have made a mistake, please address the issue with me via Private message. Save any other comments for after the game.

  • Dusk Phase - In this game, each Day phase will officially end as soon as the 48/24 hours deadline is reached. A Dusk phase will not officially be recognized, and allowed players may continue discussing in the game thread.

GAME MECHANICS

Jury System -

The game will be split up into three phases: [Interrogation], [Trial], and [Night]. The Interrogation and Trial phases are collectively referred to as a "Day."

During Interrogation, instead of lynching, the players nominate [Suspected] party members to discuss the event that took place the night of Harlan Thrombey's demise. Each player has a number of votes equal to the number of players that need to be nominated [Suspect] to end the Interrogation phase. For example, at the start of the first Interrogation phase, each player will have 3 votes. These votes cannot be placed on the same person and must be placed separately. A player will immediately be nominated if they received majority votes, once Majority reached players are not allowed to unvote the nominated.

Each player during the Interrogation phase may also privately vote for players to become [Observer of the Truth] for the [Trial Phase]. The players who receive the most votes will become [Observer of the Truth] during the [Trial Phase]. Each player sends in their votes by PM, and may not vote for themselves. Additionally, the players that have been selected just phase before are ineligible to be voted for.

Initially, only three players can be selected for [Observer of the Truth] and three [Suspects] being nominated. This reduced to two [Observer of the Truth] and two [Suspects] when the game reaches 10 players alive. When 7 players are alive, the game will turn into a kingmaker, where a single player is elected as a judge during the [Interrogation] and makes their decision during the [Trial]. If the deadline expires during the [Trial] without any decision, then the first person to be nominated for [Suspects] during the Interrogation phase will be the default lynch.

During Trial, [Observer of the Truth] members will be sharing private chat where they may converse. Their conversation will be made public at the end of the phase via quoting. During the Trail, only [Observer of the Truth] and [Suspects] may post. Each [Observer of the Truth] has a single vote and may vote for a [Suspect] to be lynched, the [Suspect] with most votes will be lynched during Trial Phase. [Observer of the Truth] may vote for a [No Lynch] if they wish.

Trust Points -

This game will feature Trust Points that increases and/or decreases a player [Suspicion] or [Trust Level]. A high trust level makes a person gain more benefits during the Night Phase, e.g. access to more abilities. [Trust Points] status will be updated end of each phase.
  • Trust Points can be used to purchase abilities.
How are Trust Points assigned?

At the end of each day phase, all three selected Observer of the Truth with a mutual understanding may rank Top Four players. These are the assigned number of points:

5 Points - Ranked 1
4 Points - Ranked 2
3 Points - Ranked 3
2 Points - Ranked 4

Additionally, players may receive points based on the following:

5 Points for being a [Observer of the Truth]
4 Points for having the highest post count during the Interrogation phase
3 Points for nominating [Guilty] player during the interrogation. Only If the [Guilty] player is lynched.
2 Points for [Observer of the Truth] by lynching [Guilty] players
2 Points for meeting the post requirement

Players may also receive demerits:

-2 points for failing to meet post requirements.
-2 points for failing to show activity and interest during the [Trail Phase] for [Observer of the Truth]
-2 Points for Lynching [Innocent] Player during the interrogation phase for [Observer of the Truth]

Limited Claims
  • There are 2 total game claims per day phase. Any kind of info dump including fake info by a player will immediately trigger a claim slot. During that day phase, the player holding the slot may share all kinds of info they see fit which includes but isn't restricted to - character claim, flavor claim, ability claim, results...

A wealthy publishing magnate has been found dead in his study. It looks like a suicide. There’s a mansion full of suspects, a Clue board waiting to be solved. So we play the game. It’s called Knives Out.

Interrogation Phase 1 starts.

You have 48 hours to decide vote for [Suspects] and [Observer of the Truth]
Good Luck To Everyone
