Proposal: Serial Killer

Fewer than a quorum not voting AGAINST. 2-2 means that the Chief Deferential becomes AGAINST, which makes Trigon’s vote AGAINST. Failed 2-4 by Kevan.

If the Proposal “Maybe let’s not nest atomic actions” has passed, add the below block of text to the top of the bulleted list in the section of the rules titled “Searching”. Otherwise, add said block of text to the top of the bulleted list under “If the Chief has not done so in the past 46 hours, he should perform the following atomic action, known as a Search:-”

*If at least one of the Murderer Possibilities (other than the actual Murderer) is not set as any Detective’s Location, establish all such Murderer Possibilities as the Endangered and roll 1DICE2. If the result is 1, pick one of the Endangered at random and remove them from the list of possible Murderers.

 

You know that moment when you thought you were playing Clue/Cluedo, but it turns out you were also playing Mafia/Werewolf?

Nice idea. A bit weird that it doesn’t make any difference whether the Murderer is being interviewed at the time, but I suppose that might be giving away too much information.

Heh heh, I actually have an “Accomplice” rule in the works to that end, but fair point!

Its not a bad idea, but one death per two clue feels too fast. Maybe roll 1DICE4?

Also, maybe the Chief should report about any murders.

I sort of like the idea that Detectives who investigate the Ruleset can glean information by paying attention to who is deceased. And derrick, I also was unsure what the right probability would be. But if the killer seems to be striking too often, we can always edit the rule.
