Section 31
It is the year 2371. Across the Federation, leading politicians, officials, military officers and intelligence operatives have been replaced with Dominion Changeling operatives. The purpose of this scheme is clear - to prepare the way for a Dominion invasion of the Federation, the destruction of its military power and the subjugation of its peoples.
Only Section 31 - a non-official and totally unsanctioned Intelligence operation - truly appreciates the breadth of the challenge the Federation faces. Almost immediately after the threat emerges, Section 31 mobilised to root out and expose changeling operatives. However, unbenownst to all but their most senior leadership, changeling operatives have also infiltrated the organiseration itself, in an attempt to cripple the only organisation capable of stopping the Dominion's inexorable advance. Section 31 faces the twin challenges of protecting the Federations key institutions from infiltration, whilst simultaneously rooting out the Dominion already within their ranks.
The Basics
There are nine players. At the start of the game, three players are randomly selected by the hosts to be the Spies (ie Mafia). The rest of the players are members of the Resistance. The Spies will know who the other spies are, but the Resistance do not know the alignment of any other player. At the start of the game the hosts will randomly generate the order in which team leaders are appointed.
The game revolves around five missions. For each mission, the player who is the 'team leader' will suggest a team of players to go along on the mission. The first team leader is the player whose name at the top of the order list. The team leader can select any other players to join the team, including him or herself. The number of players who will go on the mission is as follows:
Mission 1 - 3 people
Mission 2 - 4 people
Mission 3 - 4 people
Mission 4 - 5 people*
Mission 5 - 5 people
(*Mission 4 requires two sabotage actions from spies in order to succeed)
Once the team leader has nominated a team for the mission, all players will then vote to approve or reject that team. If the team is rejected, the next player in the order will become team leader, and may propose their own team. If the team is approved, that team will then embard on the mission.
On a mission, each Resistance member will do their utmost to ensure the mission succeeds. However, if any Spies are on the mission, they can choose to either assist, or sabotage the mission. If there is one or more spies sabotaging the mission, it fails. If there are no attempts at sabotage, it succeeds. The only exception to this rule is the fourth mission, which will require at least two spies to attempt to sabotage it in order to fail.
The Resistance win if and when three missions are successfully completed. The Spies win if they successfully sabotage three missions.
Setup
The setup for this game will be 6 Section 31 Operatives (Resistance Members) and 3 Changelings (Spies)
RESISTANCE
Section 31 Operatives. You're a grizzled warrior, but you're probably also a linguist, a computer analyst, an engineer and a dancer. You're the only thing that stands in between the Federation and its utterly alien and merciless enemies. You'll stop at nothing to protect it, even if it means breaking a few laws along the way. You have no special powers but your vote.
SPIES
Changeling - You were pulled from the Great Link in order to infiltrate the Federation's most dangerous intelligence operation, Section 31. You can assume any form you choose, which is helpful for a spy. To your people, you are a god, revered. To your enemies, you are more dangerous than they could possibly imagine. You have no special powers.
Gameplay
The game will start at 'Dawn'. Dawn will be the same time each day (2300 GMT). After dawn, the current team leader will have 24 hours to post their nominated team. At the next dawn, voting will be opened on that team. Voting will last 24 hours, until the next dawn. If the team is not approved, the next team leader will have a further 24 hours to post their nominated team. If the team is approved, any Spies on the mission have until the next dawn to submit their actions. If a team leader fails to submit a nominated team, the next team leader will then take his or her turn to nominate a team.
If four nominated teams are rejected, the fifth is automatically approved. Any failures by a team leader to nominate a team are counted towards this number.
All team nominations must be posted into the Voting thread. In order to nominate a team, the team leader must post ##nominate: Player 1, Player 2 etc. All votes must be PMed to ALL hosts. Votes will be revealed simultaneously at the next dawn.
On their turn, team leaders MUST nominate a team. If they do not, they will receive a warning. During each voting phase, each player MUST vote. If they do not, they will receive a warning. A second warning will result in a replacement. No ifs, no buts.
Spies who have been sent on a mission need only submit an intention to sabotage (or otherwise) if they want. However, if no submission is made, it will be presumed that the mission was not sabotaged. The Resistance need not submit an action - they must aid the mission. Spies have 24 hours to submit their actions - from dawn to dawn.
If a spy feels that they can no longer win the game, they may PM the hosts indicating they want to concede. If all three spies make such a PM, the game will end. The spies may not communicate about this.
Rules
Do NOT...
- Reveal your teammates if you are a spy
- Post screenshots of your inbox
- Deliberately get yourself modkilled (Players are not intended to die in this game)
- Use multiple accounts to sign up
- Use a smurf or hydra
- Spam
- Edit your posts
- Communicate with anyone else in the game about the game, even if you are a spy. Spies cannot communicate with each other in this game.
- Be civil and courteous
- Ask questions (VIA PM TO THE HOSTS) if you don't understand certain mechanics
- Have fun!
My thanks to all previous hosts, particularly to Half the Sky, who allowed me to fumble through co-hosting with her a number of times, and to rayn, who'll know why.
