Forum Game - Creationists versus Evolutionists

Hi guys, I am going to see if I can start up a forum game, based on the Mafia game's rules.
I will call it Creationists versus Evolutionists.

The objective of the game is for either side to win.
The game is divided into a day and a night turn.
The speed of the turns all depend on how fast people say their actions.
And of course how fast I can write what is the result of their actions.

During the day, the evolutionist will try and figure out who is the creationist, and that is done by forum posts, where people guess and speculate who is the creationist.
Every one (incl creationists) then vote during the day who is to be removed from the game.

During the night, the creationists target one evolutionist to be removed from the game, via PM to me.

During the night, none is allowed to post in the thread.

Creationists win by have outnumbered or equal numbers to the Evolutionists.
Evolutionists win by having removed all the Creationists from the game.

There will be 2 teams, all given out randomly and both teams have special roles.

Team A:
Are the Creationists. (As an added bonus, the creationists knows who is also a creationist)
They have one special role,
Censoring bigot

Team B:
Are the Evolutionists, and they are unknown to each other.
They have two special roles which are.
Doctorate of Medicine
Supreme Court Justice


The powers of the roles:
Censoring bigot, can make an evolutionists unable to say/post anything for a day turn. by censoring him/her

Doctorate of Medicine
, can every night turn try and figure out who is an creationist.

Supreme Court Justice, can prevent someone from being converted by the creationists during the night.

The mechanics of the roles will be described in a PM for those that got the role.


I am aiming for atleast 12 participants.

It is open until I reach at least 12.

I mean with regards to the game's period. ^-^

For example: 12 players, starts at 8 pm up to when? Is their a time limit with regards to when a person can reply?

There will be a night and day period which will last for some hours, it will depend on how active people can be.

I guess it is worth experimenting. I'm in.

I am IN.

Character: A Businessman Named Slickback (Yes, the whole thing, including the "A Businessman Named" part.)
Age: Unknown.
Description: He wears simple yet expensive garb that borders between "corporate sleaze" and "pimp"- it appears a little ragged given his past Mafia appearances (one of which being a zombie apocalypse - styled game). He runs a "low cost housing project" for his "employees", which work in an "unspecified profession" under his "employment". However, he has proven himself a loyal businessman on several occasions, one of which was his self-sacrificing in the zombie apocalypse. Allow a transcript to be posted of the incident;
Code:
 Who knows what made A Businessman Named Slickback choose his long walk? Maybe he was tired of all the killing, zombie and man alike. Maybe he felt the odds were better against the dead than the unseen enemies that stalks you all. All that is certain is that he goes to his certain doom.

Whatever the case, the group wishes him well on his journey. Small gifts are passed, words of encouragement offered and his back stings from the volume of hearty slaps it receives.

He steps out into the dark, crisp night and takes a lungful of cool air. With no lamps left in the city, the sky clothed in a gown of stars. The group falls silent as he takes slow deliberate steps across the pavement.

As he reaches the bend he turns and waves to the group. Then he draws out a battered old violin and begins to play. You recognse it as the sweet melody of Nearer My God To Thee.

"Gentlemen. It has been a privilege playing with you tonight. !" he cries.

The poignacy of the moment is rather spoiled by the Fast zombie that jumps on his back. The groups last sight of him is as he turns, arms flailing wildly, and runs straight into a wall.

Your thoughts turn to Dracil, who's absence has been a nagging doubt for several days. Perhaps tomorrow will shed some light on that mystery. One thing is for sure, you won't all be there to find out.

Clotifoth, the comparably innocent CIVILIAN is dead. He will be missed (although not by zombies, apparently). NIGHT begins

(If you want to look it up, http://forum.quarantine2019.com/index.php/topic,3708.html is the day thread in which it all went down, http://forum.quarantine2019.com/index.php/topic,3708.45.html is the page of the thread in which I decided to martyr myself, and the next page is where this stuff goes down.  It was an awesome game :D

In addition, he possesses the odd talent of playing a violin. He usually has one around him when mafia meetings come up to it, whether in the discussion room itself or simply close by.

A Businessman Named Slickback can be very protective over his workers. If anyone tries to do bad to them, he is not afraid to "smack a bitch". If the workers do not follow protocol, he is not afraid to "smack a who- I mean worker".

While many choose to bring an entourage, A Businessman Named Slickback has only one member in his, and that is Premier Name Is Slikhbakh. However, due to the ideological differences between the two (and the fact that no one can understand a word Slikhbakh says in English), he can tend to take a side role as a spectator rather than a "sidekick".

Recently, Slickback has gotten envious of the money that the evolution v. creationism debate has produced for both sides' debaters, and after a great deal of research, has formed an opinion and has reassigned some of his workers from their current "trade" to book printing for this purpose. But which side has he chosen?

Interested... Not familiar with the game format though. I get the theory but the actual formalities of the game style will reveal my noobness.

Note: Random = give Tylzen cookies xD

Personally, I hate getting any role other than that of the miller because I hardly ever use them, but the miller is super spicy sexy awesome.
