ESPIONAGE: Round Two (Detective and Civilians Win)

[Jd-]

NOTICE:

Due to the size of this game, there will indeed be TWO Informants assisting the Spy. That means civilians and the Detective will have three corrupt people to be watching out for.

will informant # 1 know the identity of informant # 2 and vice versa?

Nope, not unless the Spy informs them of it through an Order in some form.

Just to clarify, the Spy can send different Orders to different Informants. It's not like there's just one Order for every phase, and all Informants will receive this same one, right?

And another question:
A player's identity as Spy, Detective, or Civilian is revealed to the public upon their death or arrest. In case their role is Civilian, will we learn if they've been working as Informant or not? And if not, will the Spy be made aware?

[shinichi'sapprentice]

If the Informant is arrested or killed by the Spy accidentally prior to their identity being known, it is announced by the GM with their arrest or death that they were the Informant.

Oh, I missed that. Thanks, shinichi'sapprentice!

Yep, the Spy can (and should) send specific Orders to specific Informants. They may also just send out a generic Order that goes to both, but this is not recommended due to the problems that could arise for their side. Later in the game, if it devolved into just, "Vote for _______", then it'd make sense, but otherwise, I don't think so.

As shinichi'sapprentice pointed out, any time an Informant dies or is arrested, it is announced that they were working as an Informant.

Prep Phase Begins!

Roles will be going out shortly.

This phase will end in 24 hours time, though future phases may vary by up to half an hour.

EDIT: Okay, I sent out all the PMs, but my Outbox is claiming that only 18 have been sent. If, for some reason, you still haven't received your role PM, please contact me as soon as you can.

@Stopwatch: Did you check your Sent folder as well. Usually the outbox will show you messages that you have sent, but which haven't been read by the other party yet, while the Sent folder contains those messages that have actually been received (i.e read) by the recipient.

I will check, thanks.

This is like the Facebook "x has seen this" all over again though .

I know you shouldn't tell your role in public but.... I just need to say this... actually I'm

[Togop]

Togop left his lab and took a walk considering the new situation. He had always beed advanturous and woudln't miss this chance to investigate who's the spy.
"I got a list with seven names," he said, "I'm still trying to figure out where did it come from and what is the mysterious influence preventing me from sharing it, but I know at least one of the detective or spy is amongst the list. I also have sufficient evidence to assume most of you have similar lists. After analyzing the sotuation, I've concluded we should vote for people in our lists. This would have three effects:
1) It increases the chance to vote for the spy.
2) It increases the chnace to vote for the detective.
3) It makes it easier to infer other people's lists.
The points 1 and 2 "cancel" each other, while point 3 would help us find the spy easier.
So, what do you think?"

Note: I checked with the GM before posting this.
