The Rook Game

So I've come up with a Glitchian variation of a popular party game called Mafia/Werewolf Game/Witch Hunt/etc.

To narrow it down to the most basic outline: You have a group of Glitches. But among them are those in disguise... Rooks that look like everyone else. At night, they attack and one poor little Glitch is picked off to go squish grapes. During the day, it's up to the remaining Glitch to vote to stun one of their own, sending them to the grapes, in the hopes that they've chosen a Rook-in-Glitch-clothing. If not, well, oops?

If the Glitches are all attacked, the Rooks win.

If the Rooks are all stunned, the Glitches win.

Can you rely on your judgment skills of who to trust? :)

To make things a little more interesting, there are roughly 12 special roles that can be assigned to players, giving them certain abilities. Examples: the Bureaucrat, the Magic Rock, the No-No User, etc.

Would there be any interest from people in playing? It'll be all chat-based, as there's not really a way to make it active as far as I can tell. I'll be posting the general format of gameplay and all of the special roles once I get a group created so if people have suggestions, I'd be happy to hear them!

Group now up: www.glitch.com/groups/RNVI5...
