Proposal: Lol WW

Failed by Kevan, two votes to seven - cannot reach quorum.

Adminned at 16 Oct 2007 15:16:50 UTC

If the proposal Werewolf fails, this proposal does nothing.

Add the following to the rule “Bad Moon Rising”

As soon as Zahndorf has two Werewolves in it, the Mayor may select a random Villagers (excluding himself and any villager that is already a Werewolf) to become the Mystic. He shall alert that person to their role through email or some other means. The Mayor shall then repeal this rule.

Add a rule called “Mystic”

Some of the Villagers may be a Mystic - as residents of the village, they have the been blessed with the power of prophesy and dreams, and through this power can accurately determine and scout out werewolves.

The Mystic’s identity is not tracked publicly, and is initially known only by the Mayor.

As a weekly action, the Mystic may privately email the Major announcing their choice of a dream about a named Villager, in an email with the subject “Dreaming [Villager Name]. Upon reception of the email, the Villager becomes the Mystic’s target

Upon receiving this email, if the target is still Alive, then the Mayor may email the Mystic back with either one word, “Yes” if the target is a werewolf, and “No” if the target is not.

Other then Hix’s concerns on using e-mail (unless a private message counts as email), I like it. I had a very similar idea, even on the ‘weekly’ part. I think that’s better then daily, since it’s unlikely villagers will be dropping off daily, like in a normal game of mafia.

for Except that Bad Moon Rising gets repealed at the end of its first paragraph, so the additional paragraph won’t be processed.

(In fact, Bad Moon Rising may have already repealed itself by the time this passes.)

Good point. Not sure how I missed that. Another clause can be added to put the mystic in the game though, I assume.

against only because of the technical problems.  Also, I suggest adding a mechanism to permit the Mayor to designate additional Mystics, just in case they all idle.

against The technical problems aren’t worth it.

against A CoV to clear the queue; might as well repropose the core rule when we have a proper mechanic for creating mystics.
