Assassins Game Première: Speed Kills

[Anita Blake]

So, even though this is closed ballot, are we still going to see who everybody voted for when the (alleged) mafia is killed?

[Zopperoni]

To prevent any vindictive actions, I will withhold all voting information until the game is over.

[Snowflake]

Hmmm perhaps it would be interesting if a little voting info is leaked out. I mean everybody is like a blind man who ride on a blind horse that about to go near the edge of a deep cave at night. We could use some information here. Like if somebody said that he would vote for somebody and that somebody didn't get any vote then we could deduct some interesting conclusion about whether that somebody was purposely misleading people etc etc.

[Zopperoni]

Sounds interesting, I might do that.

Standard election secret ballot, numbers are tallied, but no names are matched to them.

[Skanky Burns]

But then that will just encourage docpiling on the person who came 2nd in the previous poll. Hmmm.

[loinburger]

I'd say leave it to the discretion of whoever's running the game, with the caveat that the GM may not lie. In other words, he/she may release as many or as few of the vote tallies as he/she wants (except, of course, that the person with the most votes is corpsified). Information could also be left vague, e.g., "Imran breathes a sign of relief that, on average, more people still blame Skanky," or whatever.

[:) Smiley]

In that case, state how many votes the person offed got, and nothing else.

[Rasputin]

agh got to love the Fake clues......

[:) Smiley]

The bottom line is to make it fun. Whatever works.

[Rasputin]

more obvious clues would make it fun, instead of just guesiing with no clues and killinng some poor innocent....

Deep pool

[Snowflake]

Ahh. But what is that blind horse doing wandering around near a pool at night?

[Edit] It is a horse d**n it, a horse.

[Urban Ranger]

Because it's blind?

great idea, and I think it would help a bit if people leak their voting reasoning to the GM, if not the other players at large to help with roleplaying
