tSR WEREWOLF 20XX: THE SPRITERS DESTROY THEMSELVES *GAME IS OVER, SPRITE THIEVES WIN*
#1
It's 4 hours late, but it's here at last! Thank you all for being so patient.

Lounge thread is here.
Signup thread is here.

Plot:

Spriting. The development of two-dimensional images to be integrated into a larger scene, often a video game. Imagine, if you will, a quaint community of spriters and enthusiasts, known as tSR. It is at tSR that these people would post their works for critique, discuss the finer points of video games, and argue about what women are allowed to be offended by. A community of innocent, honest pursuits. Sure, there'd be the occasional catastrophic database failure, and every once in awhile an unsavory type might show up. You know the type. The kind that make tiny little edits that change nothing, or are so repulsed by the idea of effort that they merely recolor a sprite, or steal it from someone else altogether. Or make completely insane Pokemon sprite fusions. But they were never a huge issue. A bunch of people would tell them how terrible they were and they'd hit the road, problem solved. But the members of tSR had grown complacent in their little paradise. A storm was coming.

You might say that each member of tSR was their own little sprite in the game of their own lives, and of the game they were about to play. Let's just hope they can make it to the end of the level.

It was a quiet day when the thread was posted.

"The pOkenon sprite master showcanse -- By DarkLugiiaPOkemaster"

"This' s digluxx, he's my pokemon that I made. Smile)"

Very quickly, members began offering their critique.

"Uh...what the...fuck? What...I mean, what is this supposed to be? Isn't diglett some sort of mole thing? Is it like, a chocolate ice cream diglett? This is from that ice cream Pokemon, right?"

"Are you joking? You just crammed one thing into another thing, it doesn't even make sense. There's messed up pixels all over it, and you added a bunch of bits for no reason."

"Oh my GOD, why would you save as JPEG? JPEG ruins sprites. Not that it matters, this thing is absolutely terrible. What a garbage new member."

The sprite spoke for itself. But though the members of tSR could see the jagged lines and JPEG artifacts just fine, what they couldn't see was the quickly-building rage of DarkLugiiaPOkemaster. He would not be scorned.

"you guys think your' so GREAT, well I bet you couldnt do any better anyway. maybe if your going to all be elitists assholes, you should just go somewhere else. I don't CARE what you think anyway, ILL SHOW YOU ALL, your all going to be SO SORRY"

And the floodgates were opened. A relentless wave of new members poured in, who proceeded to fill the forums to the brim with terrible spriting monstrosities.

The mods' and admins' passwords were cracked and they lost their ability to bring order, replaced in power by talentless losers who had stolen Moderator status, and who would ban other members at the slightest annoyance or outcry. The peaceful existence of tSR was shattered into jagged, badly shaded pieces. "NOW WILL SEE WHOSE BETTER AT SPRITING" A last message hung over the board from DarkLugiiaPOkemaster, who then left for parts unknown, leaving tSR to die a quick, painful death. The members that remained had all but completely lost hope, making posts of despair in the darkest reaches of the forum.

"What are we going to do? This place sucks now!"

"It's over, man, it's just fucking over! We're screwed!"

"They're gonna destroy all of us! They'll never-"

"STOP."

A voice rang out amongst the chaos. Everyone turned to see Sol, standing in the open, his name above his head in bold red letters.

"Are you..?"

"That's right. In this insanity, I've somehow acquired admin powers. Now it's up to me, to us, to fix this mess the only way I know how: A complicated forum game. All of you have to figure out who the garbage members are, and I'll ban them one by one until they're gone for good. If we're lucky, tSR may just survive after all."

That's right. The first day may last longer than usual though to accommodate stragglers, especially considering I started the thread later than planned. I haven't decided yet.

By the way, all roles have been sent out! If you haven't received a role PM, please message me!

So, fellow members, are we going to play this the classic "dick around and do nothing until someone gets killed" way, or should we start throwing some accusations around and gathering data?

I somehow get the feeling that Phantom K is a ghost... just my instincts, though.



Also I'll be pinning the topics for now for convenience okay :)
#6
Ah, I always hate the first day... someone's always getting killed with no evidence to support it.


So I reckon it's Kat.

I reckon it's Hoeloe.

I understand that we haven't really played yet but we could still talk and try to figure things out before making accusations.

I know, it was a joke, which is why I didn't put the vote down Wink

I don't really think it's you, I have no knowledge one way or the other.

HOW DO YOU KNOW!? R U MAFIA/WURWULF!?

Seriously though, first days kinda suck.

I would've recommended throwing out offhanded comments like that though; it kind of opens the floodgates if Kat actually dies. Namely, if she does die, then you have this whole "you called it," "why would I say it if I was mafia," "to throw us off the trail," back and forth that amounts to a fat lot of circle jerking over questionable evidence.

Hrm indeed, as you can tell I have yet to actually vote yet either ;p

but really, anything anyone says can be strewn around to have them being voted for. Everytime you post, you vote, you do anything, others take notice.

It also makes things worse, if, let's say I was on the good side and had an important role.

good luck everyone~

I have no idea who's good or not and something tells me I won't know until later in the game. Tongue

I know, I've played this game a lot.

Not for a while though. I seriously don't mean to say it's you, so let's just disregard the whole thing.

As far as I see, pretty much everything that happens on the first day is moot, because nobody has any information at all.

So, what's the plan then?

I'm all for the "waiting out the first night" thing, since it's far too early to do anything or vote for anyone. I'm just hoping a werewolf slips up or something and gives us an easier time this game!!

Question 
Isn't there supposed to be an intro post? All the other werewolf games I've ever played, including Sol's, have had an intro post with story and such on the first day.

I wonder when Sol will put that up....
