Ok I have a strange sort of idea for a quick little game. Bits and pieces of it have been done before, but I don't think the combination of rules has been done quite like this before. Here's how it will work.
Everyone is town so there is no mafia. All players will be allowed to talk to any other player at any time via any means. There will be 16 players and 16 powers at night. Each power will be randomly assigned each night. Each day phase, you will vote for one power and one player to remove from the game. Whichever player/power has the most votes at the end of each phase, will be removed from the game. If no player/power is voted for, then one will be randomly killed. If a player dies at night, the power they possessed during that phase will be removed. Once we're down to the final 9 players, everyone eliminated will be placed on the jury. Once we're down to the final 2 players, the jury of 7 will vote for the person they think deserves to win the most.
The first 16 players to sign up by posting "I'm in" and their real first name are in. I will start this as soon as we're full. All I ask is that you guys try not to make this a popularity contest.

I just figured that since I had (and still do sometimes) such a hard time keeping straight which realmsers were which people on Facebook, that this might be a way to bring us all a little closer.

Or get them talking about not giving each other a drink of water if they were dying of thirst.
Eh. It's all good television.

Yeah, some crazy stuff this season -- though the BIG stuff really is coming about because they've been doing basically the same thing season after season with an aspect of the game. Hopefully this'll give 'em a wakeup call to change it, or future seasons could end up a tad silly.

I haven't seen tonight's episode yet, but I DVR'd it so I'll watch it this weekend. Is that what you're referring to here?
EDIT: Oh and Jack, you want in?

It's only similar in mechanics. There will be no characters or anything. So watching the show isn't even a suggestion let alone a requirement.

Isn't that your last name, TBB?

Sounds good. That's what happens when you come late to the show!

I would not throw away the possibility that this is his actual name.

Are you serious? I thought he was joking. If not, I'll have to go edit his name in the thread. I called him Betty for being a smart alec.

Maybe his name is Alec. :)

He might be joking, he might not. I've heard names like that before.
