Bird are you going to post that Game of Thrones game?

TWG 54: Game of Wolves
An elaborate 14-player mystery based on the TV show Game of Thrones.1. White Walker

14. ??The mythical world of Westeros is a land divided; seven noble houses rule the seven kingdoms of the continent. They feud, form alliances, backstab and plot against one another. A human player might get benefits from healing his allies and from killing his rivals. But will petty human in-fighting distract them from the real enemy—the white walkers, an ancient legion of creatures as ruthless and cruel as winter itself?
Every player (probably) will get a role which is aligned with a certain house. The other members of that house will be their allies, and the members of certain other houses will (probably) be their enemies. They will get benefits depending on what they do to those allies and enemies. But they don't know who is who. Despite this, all of the humans all have the same win condition (probably): eliminate the white walkers.
In addition to a role and a house, every player gets a fake role with which to false claim if they desire. White Walkers get two. These roles will feature characters a different allegiance. Now spoiler free! A character list will be provided, listing the name and allegiance of every real and fake role in the. You don't need any familiarity with Game of Thrones or A Song of Ice and Fire to dominate either, since most of the roles' powers don't match up very well with their character.
And it's still a mystery game. Be prepared for twists, random mechanics, and other disasters to gum up your best laid plans.
Spoiler
Character ListThere are 28 characters in this list, but only 11 of them are actual roles in this game. The other 17 are false roles given to players and White Walkers to allow them to false claim more easily. This lists each of those roles (real or fake) by their house allegiance, if any. Try not to make too many assumptions about the make-up of the game based on the list or your role PM; I peppered the game description with (probably)s for a reason--it's tricky! The White Walkers may not even be red! They could be white or something! Characters from this list were selected to be in the game at random, rather than based on their importance.
I'll edit this list with descriptions later on!

Here's a sample of what the roles in the game will be like, as well as the powers.
QuoteYou are Abraham Lincoln!
Alliance: Republican Party
Enemies: Democrats
Abraham Lincoln was very tall. Also he had a top hat! He abolished slavery or something with the Emancipation Proclamation and was born in a log cabbin.
Log Cabin: The power of log cabins gives Lincoln the ability to withstand one attack from the wolves.
Emancipate: Anyone being controlled by another role (vote control or power control) is freed from that control, and the controller dies. Single use.
Tallness: Your vote counts as 2. Counts as 3 vs. Democrats.
THIS GAME LOOKS TOO COMPLEX FOR ME, WHAT DO I DO?
Get over it, that's what! You just played two simple games in a row, and now you want another one? It's not even going to be that hard to understand. You don't have to figure everyone's roles or alliance out. You just need to find the wolves.
This would be NSM's FIRST MYSTERY GAME. Can you believe that? 53 games without a mystery? Well let's not make it 54. Together we can make history.ALSO EVERYONE WHO VOTES FOR THIS GAME GETS ONE MILLION DOLLARS AND A FREE HAT
DONE.
Let's make it 54 guys. Game of Wolves pshh!
How about being trapped in a mythical forest with people you have no idea about! All you know is that some of them are werewolves... Mystery things will happen in the game that you will have never seen before!
The game will feel real, you won't want to die! You won't want your friends to die!
nope game of wolves is better
Npe. Mythical Forest is better.
Bandwagoners.

typo so it doesn't count

Sounds like something more that im used too xD
Is anyone going to resist bird?
Bird, that game looks awesome - now I have to play it.
I keep telling the NSM TWC that they shouldn't post host sign-ups while the current game is ongoing, but they never listen! Maybe I should talk to Nakah. *rimshot*
Anyway, I'm working on a game but it's not finished, so Game of Wolves it is, even though I think Bird should have saved it for LLF!
I find it incredibly annoying when host sign ups go up before the game is finished. I understand the reasoning behind it, but it's still really annoying.
I don't get what's all the fuzz about starting the host sign-ups before the game has ended.
If you're going to complain, at least give proper reasons why!!!
Well, you can always make a topic about it!
We definitely considered waiting until the game was over to do the host sign-ups, but decided that the players would probably prefer the games being closer together, since that would have less downtime. I'll set up a poll for everyone to discuss it.
I always thought the current host had to give the "go-ahead" before the next sign-ups started.
I don't think so. Maybe I'm wrong. I'll talk to Mashi and verm about it.
And if it doesn't exist, but you think it should, feel free to bring it up in this new topic discussing the issue (http://www.ninsheetm.us/smf/index.php?topic=5615.0).
Uhh... poll is up, I guess???
Wow; this is a really difficult decision... URUGG!!
I wanted to vote both :<
So I guess the player sing ups can go up now?
But there's a tie.
Also, I can't put the sign-ups yet, because I haven't made the game yet. If it filled up before I was done making the game, it'd be a bigger scandal than the time Mashi operated 3 accounts in SlowPokemon's anonymous TWG!
(I'll be putting the player sign-ups tomorrow.)
HA I BROKE THE TIE
