Long Game Theme Repository
 

Between the games on POG and the games on USG, I figured it would be a good idea to compile a list of theme suggestions for mods to choose from. Since I started playing poker again, I need something to do while not at the tables. It might help kick start a few more games.

DMK's game should be over in a few days. USG is having AS2 (un-themed) and CPFB's Game (theme already chosen) within the next 2-3 weeks. Nez is probably running another game there after those. I'm not able to play in any USG games because I still need to be around with database access in case of any problems. That means my playing is limited to POG games for a decent amount of time. Someone please start a new WW long game here within the next week or two. Thanks.

Two themes that I came up with so far:

Managers/Owners Theme - People like Pete Rose, the guy from Enron, etc. versus people like Bill Gates (who finds the owner of Intel to create a new CPU), and so on. The possibilites are endless.

Austin Powers Theme - I don't think this has been used yet. It's pretty much self explanatory.

If you have any good ideas for themes, add them to the list. If you want to run a game with one of the themes from this thread, that's fine...first to post gets the theme. Anyone caught stealing themes from here without permission will be killed!

List To Add To:

Managers/Owners
Austin Powers

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

I plan on figuring out a pro-wrestling theme to run one of these days.

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

Also one of the best games I've played was the All-Info game (Hackerz) early this year.

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

C'mon Dan...humor me:

Managers/Owners
Austin Powers
Pro Wrestling

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

Here's one I could do for sure:

The Princess Bride

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

How about baseball — wolves = known steriod users.

Works for the Tour de Fr-whoops, no, they're all wolves.

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

One of the baseball villagers would be Mike Lowell, for whom the count always starts with one ball.

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

shouldn't there be a new game here starting soon?

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

Soah,

Funny you should ask, I've been debating with myself whether I have the time to run Slow Game 4 within the next couple weeks.

(There's a game on OH's site starting next Monday.)

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

I want a game starting tomorrow...

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

I could try to run a turbo or two in that case ...

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

i always thought that a star wars theme, with the evil empire as the village and the wolves as yoda n all that would be kinda cool.

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

I thought about that, but ran out of villagers. The reversal is pure genius.

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

Managers/Owners
Austin Powers
Pro Wrestling
Star Wars (sides switched)

Doesn't mean there can't be another one. Just a FYI to read up on what characters were used there.

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

Managers/Owners
Austin Powers
Pro Wrestling
Reverse Star Wars (Original was done already. Make sure to use some differences.)

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

I used to have a bunch of cool theme ideas, but alas, I have forgotten them all now [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

All of my theme ideas are either tremendously lame or would only be amusing to me

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

AUSTIN POWERS

Evils:


Dr. Evil: Godfather. Peeks as "good agent."
Number 2: Must be lynched twice, or lynched and then must die during the immediately following night.
Frau: Evil roleblocker.
Goldmember: Votebuyer. Can switch one vote at nightfall.
Fat Bastard: No powers.
Fembot Vanessa: Peeks as Vanessa. No powers.



Goods:

Austin Powers: Village vigilante. May kill every night.
Foxxy Cleopatra: Seer.
Good Vanessa: Seer. Peeks as Vanessa.
Felicity Shagwell: Good roleblocker.
Basil Exposition: Good votebuyer. Can switch one vote at nightfall.
Fook Mi and Fook Yu: Masons with no other powers besides communication. One dies if the other is targeted for death.

Mrs. Kensington: A doctor with 75% protection. Cannot protect seer (0%). ALSO peeks as Vanessa. Looks each night for Fembot Vanessa. If found, Fembot Vanessa dies and Mrs. Kensington leaves game victorious. If Mrs. Kensington finds Good Vanessa, they become masons.

Other various good agents that all peek as "good agent." One gets a revenge kill if lynched. One gets a night kill on n3 if still alive.


Neutrals:

Nigel Powers: Searches at night for either Austin Powers or Dr. Evil, submitting one name each time. If he finds one before dying, he leaves the game victorious. If Austin Powers is found, the good team is punished. If Dr. Evil is found, the evil team is punished.

Scott Evil: Angsty serial killer. Wins if he is the last one standing, or if the only people left standing besides himself are some combination of Nigel Powers/Austin Powers/Dr. Evil/Frau/MiniMe.

MiniMe: Starts out as Evil Terrorist, winning with Evils. Does not know evils. If targeted for death by Austin Powers or targeted at night by Nigel Powers, becomes village role with no powers (which will be announced in thread without outing anyone).







obv feel free to tweak. i'd like to see this run, but i couldn't do it.

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

was there a time travel game once?

I'd like to run a

game.

I'm not sure if it will be a regular WW game with a cool theme or if it will involve some kind of time travel craziness.

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

I was kicking around a poker tournament WW game. Where players stacks are their lives. Everyone starts with 5 chips. You can optionally flip with another person for 1 chip at a time. Wolves "eat" five total chips from the group of tournament players each night and give them to any player/players they want. Anyone that has a stack of zero is dead. Players lynch one person each evening. Players get one vote per chip. All chip stacks are public knowledge.

I was thinking a one hand per day, GUTS game could be mixed in as part of the fun...

Anyway, that's the VERY rough idea...

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

Holy crap, Mark ... I have no idea what a "GUTS" game is, but the concept for the game sounds awesome.

Guts is basically 2 card poker... But I think any game could work, e.g. like 5 card draw. It just needs a simplified betting round. (ideally one round)

Re: Long Game Theme Repository
 

I like the idea eventhough I think wolves getting the chips of the eaten player would make this fairly easy for the village [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
