Scioly Assassination 11: Murder of the Minds
Posted: October 29th, 2008, 3:20 pm
Welcome, honored guests. I have gathered you all here because you are the greatest minds on the planet. Unfortunately for you, I have also gathered you all here so I can assassinate you, one by one (all the doors lock). Nothing personal; it's just what I do. Now, to be nice, I will give you a chance to discover my identity and end this murder of the minds. First, some ground rules:
1. By vote of the Eternal Order of the Assasinators, tehkubix and starpug are banned from participating as Assasinators or police officers until further notice is given. However, they remain in the pool of victims.
2. The police officers will be the next five people who post. Put in a bit of thought before posting. If you have not been around for awhile, it is less likely that you will be able to identify me.
3. People will die. However, there are some exceptions. I will not kill administrators or moderators. In return, I ask that they not reveal my identity.
4. Police officers may die, but a police officer may protect another police officer.
5. Once a police officer has made three incorrect accusations, he may not accuse or protect anyone.
6. The assassin will provide clues which plainly point to his next victim, and occasionally to himself.
7. The assassin will continue to post with his true account, and may provide hints there.
8. The assassin will write entertaining and mildly gruesome accounts of his kills.
9. When accusing someone of being Assasinator you must use the following template "I accuse (place name here) because (give reason here)." If you don't use this template when accusing the accusation won't count.
10. Once "killed" a user may not make any statements about the identity of the Assasinator.
11. The Assasinator reserves the right to add to these rules as he deems necessary.
(I took the liberty of changing rule number 4. Officers can once again protect themselves, but if I find people constantly ignoring the clues and protecting themselves every single turn, I will revoke that right).
Now that that's out of the way, I simply need to wait for the officers to name themselves. Choose wisely, as once we begin, there will be no mercy. Once I am done with you geniuses, the world shall be a better place. But enough chatter. Let the games begin!
