Werewolf Lite CLIII: Climategate
The Setting
For years the worlds media and politicians has been convinced that the world as we know it is going to end. If we don't act fast. The IPCC and it's scientists have kept politicians with up-to-date with fresh numbers on how sinister the warming is. However, recently it was revelead that some of the central scientists in this project is more interested in twisting and hiding facts in order to further their own goals instead of searching for the truth. You have to find these corrupt climate scientists and weed them out so that they don't damage the image of scientists everywhere.
Rules:
There shall be seventeen (17) players. Special Roles will be handed out after the last person signs up. Only Special Roles will get a PM.
The game will then proceed to a Day deadline.
The game is divided into two periods - night and day. For practical reasons these two periods take place at the same time, from one update till the next.
Each day, all players gather and decide to lynch one of the players - the person they think is most likely to be a werewolf. Each night, the werewolves decide who to kill. In each 24 hour period, the village will lynch, and the werewolves will hunt. The villagers can try to lynch multiple people by creating a glorious, Lemeard-approved, TIE, and the werewolves can also decide not to hunt anyone at all at night. Beware of Crovaxian slips as well!
Winning:
The werewolves win if they manage to reach parity with the villagers.
The villagers and seer win if they manage to kill all the werewolves.
Player Roles:
12 X Honest Scientists. (Villager): Honest scientists. Each day will choose one person to lynch.
4 X Climate Scientists (Werewolf): Acts and behaves like a scientist. But twists the facts to suit their own goals rather than pursuing the truth.
1 X Russian Hacker (Seer): Each night he can use his powers to steal information from one of the scientists computer.
