The next Molag Bal Game

Post by MARS »

It's time to decide who will handle the new MGB.

So drop your name if you wish to be the DM. Once the DM is decided, we will talk about rules.

Edit: Guess I should add this:

The Unified Official Rule Codex of the Molag Bal Game
(Or the UORCMBG)

Hello, all! After a short discussion and approval from everyone's favourite Arch-Mage, I am here putting up a unified rule set for the Molag Bal Game, in the "Official" status. People who don't want to follow can still make their own, but cannot add the prefix "Official" to the games. This prefix can be a sort of endorsement.

The following rules are made in the interest of making the game as good as possible, and not to impede anyone's fun. All have been added after suggestion from forum RPers.

The Rules

Paragraph 1: Set up

1. To be able to DM the Molag Bal Game, one must have followed at least two Molag Bal Games beforehand, preferably more.
2. The DM will be voted on from a list of candidates.
3. The MBG is recommended to be held with breaks between the official games, but this is not strictly necessary. It just prevents them from getting old.
4. The DM decides who can be in the game. If the DM does not believe a player can uphold the rules, he/she is allowed to deny the player admittance.
5. Recommended maximum of players is 10.

Paragraph 2: Game rules

1. Any variations from the base rules are chosen solely by the DM, and he/she does not have to take suggestions from anyone. It is however recommended that he/she does.
2. The base game is made up of 2 worshippers and 1 seer. No other character types. The number of worshippers and seers can vary with the number of players.

Paragraph 3: The game

1. Character names should be avoided, to lessen confusion among the players.
2. The game starts with a day shift WITHOUT voting for a lynching. This is purely to get acquainted with each others characters. The first move is always the worhsippers'.
3. After this it follows with Night, then day and so on.
4. No OOC posts. All comments related to characters must be made in the General Roleplay Discussion Thread. They will be deleted, but don't clutter the game with them anyway.
5. Do not make pointless in-character discussions. You don't have to only vote, but keep it to the game. To not do so annoys the DM and make his/her work difficult.

Paragraph 4: Special rules (Requested by Arch-Mage Matt)

1. Revealing of a card is grounds for getting kicked.
2. Discussing any part of the game OOC (Be it player, non-player, dead player or host) will have their post deleted by Arch-Mage Matt.

Paragraph 5: Voting

1. After the first player has cast a vote, all other players have a 48 hour window to vote in (Time can vary by the DM, but 48 is recommended). Depending on the DM, the missing players will either be booted or default to a blank vote.
2. Trust that the DM can handle the counting of votes and time, and respect that he/she may be asleep when the time runs out. DO NOT PESTER HIM/HER.
3. The player with the most votes against him/her will get lynched.
4. In the event of a tie, both top players will be lynched. Unless all players have a low number of votes, say, one or two.


Changes:

24/3-12: §1.1: Changed from "Participated in" to "followed".
24/3-12: Pronouns changed to unisex on request from female RPers.

REMEMBER: This is not a final set of rules, and suggestions are welcome. Please post objections and feedback in the General Thread, not here.

Why, I'd actually love to have a shot at doing this, and while I fear I might forget it at times, the MBG is one of the few RPs so popular I wouoldn't be allowed to do so.

As such, the JV applies for the role of DM of the Official 15th Molag Bal Game

Now that would be unbelievably gruesome, while also perfectly anatomically accurate. I'd love to participate in this one, but I'm more than happy with the several candidates we've collected already, so I think I'll sit out DMing this one :P (I do have a concept for a future MBG sitting around, but it's all timing - at the moment, I'm just finishing up exams and about to hit a month or so of lesser workload and holidays, so the timing for this game is perfect from my perspective)

I enjoyed MBG11 a whole lot 8) A certainly would like to do another themed MBG at some point in the future, although certainly looking outside of Morrowind for a change.

I voted for Shadow, because his personality suits the MBGs.

Two does not equal three.
