View Full Version : GAME: INFESTATION (Round 3) (M.A.)

K, for mods, this is another TWG/AM/WT/Mirage spin-off.
_________________________________________________

Infestation

A foreign object hit the Nevada desert in the evening. It was transported to Area 51 for examination, but somehow an accident occurred and whatever was inside the object has escaped and killed all the scientists working on it.

The ‘Alien’ is a shapeshifter and has made herself look like another soldier. She has the power to lay eggs that hatch and the hatchling must infest a human host to survive.

Area 51 has been put under lockdown. No one can get in or out. The objectives? For the unlucky soldiers – to hunt down and eradicate the alien threat. For the alien – to survive the witch hunt and escape to the outside world.

Daytime

The alien cannot operate in the open and so is vulnerable. All the soldiers collate their suspicions and at the end of the day one unlucky soul is executed and then the autopsy is performed, revealing whether they are alien or not.

Nighttime

The soldiers retire to their billets and sleep. However, the alien and her hosts operate.

Soldiers

Private – No abilities apart from a daytime vote.

Medic – Can send a PM every second Nighttime (beginning Nighttime 2) to the host to administer a drug to any player. If the player has not been infested, no harm comes to them. If the player is infested, they die instantly.

Sniper – Is on watch at night and can send a PM to the host to guard a player of his choice from any Alien attack once per Nighttime. All Alien attacks against the chosen player will simply fail for that Nighttime.

Commando – Out to hunt Alien scum. Can send a PM to the host every Nighttime to watch one player. If that player participates in an Alien attack, there is a 50% chance of catching and killing that player.

Sergeant – Has been delegated the role of interrogating the other soldiers. May send a message to the host every Nighttime to interrogate a soldier and find out their role (either Alien or Human).

Major – The head of the soldiers and so has his own private security. If aliens attempt to Kill or Infest the Major during Nighttime, he has a 50% chance to catch and kill one of the aliens.

Aliens

There is one Alien at the beginning who is always the Queen. As the Queen she has the power to infest. The Aliens can only use these abilities at Nighttime. The Queen also starts with an already infested soldier, picked at random. Only the Queen can infest.

Infest – Lays an egg. The hatchling will target a player of the Queen’s choice. The Queen must send the PM on behalf of her brood to the host to designate the target. If the Queen attempts to Infest, the aliens cannot attack this Nighttime. The first Infestation has a 100% chance of success (except against a Major). The second Infestation has a 25% chance of failure. The third Infestation has a 50% chance of failure. Any subsequent Infestation attempts have a 75% chance of failure. Also, once half of the players are dead, failed Infestations have a 50% chance of having a random Alien caught and killed.

Kill – The aliens go out and kill. 25% chance of success if only one alien. 50% chance of success if two aliens. 75% chance of success if three or more aliens. If the attack fails, there is a 50% chance a random Alien is caught and killed. If the Aliens attempt to kill, they cannot use Infest this Nighttime.

Everytime a player is successfully infested, they randomly bear the traits of one of the breeds of Alien from the Queen’s planet. Here they are :

Shadowmorph – A master of disguise. If killed by Daytime vote will register as a human in the autopsy.

Johrmaid – The Queen’s loyal helper. If the Queen is caught during a Nighttime attack, the Johrmaid will take her place in death.

Brutash – If caught during a Nighttime attack will survive death.

Scyrocles – If killed by Daytime vote has a 50% chance of killing at random a player who voted for him.

Clairras – Has a 50% chance of escaping any ill-effects of human nighttime abilities.

Mentare – A manipulator. Will choose the loser of a Daytime vote tie, even if he himself is one of those concerned in the tie.

Parascule – A parasite. The host is unaware that he is infested but for all intensive purposes is counted as an alien. The Queen can send a PM to the host at Daytime to change the vote of the Parascule’s host without him realising it. If the Queen dies, the Queen can select another Alien to manipulate the Parascule.

Due to the alien’s weak psychic link, she can only successfully maintain control of two host bodies at a time (excluding herself). If there are more than three Aliens (including the Queen), every nighttime there is a 50% chance one of the host bodies at random will try and wrest control from the Alien, in which case the other Aliens have no choice but to kill the host body.

Other Notes

The Infestation does not occur until the time that Nighttime ends and Daytime begins. This means that if a human is targetted by either the Medic or Sergeant during a Nighttime they are infested, they will register as human.

Victory

The Soldiers win if they eradicate all the Alien and all her Host Bodies.

The Aliens win if they outnumber the Soldiers.

As there really is no evidence pointing to anyone, and because I want to prove conspiracy wrong....Ill vote for nobody in particular.

So, with that said, Ill open he voting with Rude Boy....why?

Because he is Rude....

I was alien for the first two rounds, so I could see why I'd be suspected... but I assure you I'm clean this time :) (at least for now x_x )

I'm going to throw a vote out for Dark Dragonite. I'm just going with a gut feeling...

Roy Karrde
23rd July 2006, 12:34 AM
Damn I missed getting nominated, I should learn to check back sooner. I'm going with Green Lanturn. Why? Becuase he could have easily said he was going on the prospect that Rude Boy could be one since he was last time. Instead he votes for Rude Boy and adds in that he has no evidence. So either it is one hell of a coincidence, or he wants to go after Rude Boy, knowing people will point out that he was a Alien in the last round and do the work for him, thus deflecting attention from his Alien self! Or maybe it is Midnight and I have worked for 6 hours, and I am overthinking this.

Dark-San
23rd July 2006, 02:10 AM
[b][size=3] I am a bit late. Hmm I suppose it is either Green Lanturn, Dark Dragonite or Rude Boy.

Green Lanturn: Well, I do not suppose that anyone that posts first is the alien. Besides he is probably just plainly posting a name without thinking much. One victory to his name in the last round.

Rude Boy: Can be a bit suspicious since being alien twice does not mean that he cannot be the alien for the third time. Besides he comes into this third game with two victories in a row which shows how a good strategist he is. Hence a potential alien target of infection.

Dark Dragonite: An innocent by- stander which got voted by Rude Boy. Reason given only was based on Rude Boy's gut feeling.

Hence from the analysis of the three, the highly possible aliens could only be either Green Lanturn or Rude Boy. However that does not mean that Dark Dragonite is not infected in anyway.

I am making my decision here, it is a wild choice.

And my choice would be

....

...

..

Rude Boy.

Crazy Elf Boy
23rd July 2006, 02:44 AM
Well my vote goes for Rude Boy as well because he has been the alien twice before. So it is possible he is one once again "infected". And agree with Dark san on the fact he is a good strategist and a good target for the "unavoidable" infestation.

Drusilla
23rd July 2006, 04:46 AM
Or maybe it is Midnight and I have worked for 6 hours, and I am overthinking this.


Hah, luxury... How about maybe it's 5 AM and I've worked for 11 hours? How about them apples, beeotch?

Since I highly doubt that I'll regain conciousness before voting closes, I may as well do it now... Roy Karrde, because when he goes to that much effort to ramble on about who's guilty, it's usually because he is... like the last round of TWG.

Fine, I change to Rude Boy at least this way...if I survive, I can vote neutral last time...

Oh and RB/Magmar, I don't need to defend myself against a gut feeling when you're wrong...

Go ahead, vote for me guys if you want to bandwagon, you're screwing yourselves, not me...

[b][size=3]On one side we have Dark Dragonite who had mentioned that if he dies the whole human race is screwed. On the other side, we have Rude Boy who had escape death and had voted Dark Dragonite on gut feeling.

Enough talk, we have seen what Rude Boy is upto. No alien is stupid enough to vote for the queen. My vote goes to Dark Dragonite.

These are the remaining players, and one has a doom. If we lose two more humans, we'll probably be outnumbered, assuming the aliens took another under their wing on the first night.

I'm going to vote for Crazy Elf Boy because it's too late in the game to be voting neutral, as it might cause us to lose entirely at this point. Everyone else, I implore you to use your own senses of logic and try to come up with an idea of who it is, and post those thoughts here, becuase I'm not feeling concrete on this vote.

30th July 2006, 09:09 AM
[b][size=3] Right I agree with Rude Boy, we should not go Neutral now. Elf boy, I suggest you change your vote to somebody else. ^.^

It is a wild shot in the dark and my vote goes to Dru, taking into account that the last two time which she voted for both Roy and Ace respectively and both died.

Apologises Elf Boy, didn't mean to lie to you but this game is all about deception. So I have to do something to ensure my survival.

Heh, your guess is as good as mine...

I checked in the morning and found the e-mail saying I was a "private".

I went to work, and when I returned in the evening, I had an IM saying that I was now reassigned to be the Alien Queen, and that my ally was dark-san....I didnt choose you, I really didnt choose anybody, other than Conspiracy.....

And hey, in the end, it worked out, despite Heald's coin-flips always going against me....

So, go aliens, thats three games in a row....
