KH-Vids Death Note Game v 2.0

Yeah, I have to agree. What if your name is given out in the first 'un and then in all of the later games you are killed right away if it gets around? How would that be fair?​

 

Below are the rules for The Death Note Game. Please make sure to read them so that we can all be on the same page before you begin playing. Players in the game consist of anyone who posts in the thread at roll call for a new game or during a round. This game was a creation by ICSP so he gets credit for its design and being the founder. Pyro and I take credit in mutating it further. These rules will be updated as will the Round number every time a new game starts so no one has to scroll through and search.

The Shinigami
The Shinigami is the one person in the game that will know what the detectives and the kira and accomplices are doing at any moment. Accusations as well as deaths are reported by the Shinigami to the thread. Repliku is the Shinigami this round. The Shinigami chooses a Kira and cannot be the Kira him/herself, so do not waste time with accusing the Shinigami unless you want a humorous ending.

:guiltygearXpc37:
*The Shinigami is a neutral party monitoring over the game and will not aid the Kira in covering tracks but also will not aid the detectives with their investigations either. Probably, the Shinigami will be a pain in the arse to both parties instead.

* The Shinigami likes fruit. Particularly apples and peaches. Apple dippers and apple chips are delicious too.

Shinigami Eyes
To make it clear what Shinigami Eyes is, an explanation is provided here.
* If one full day goes by and no accusations are made, the Kira will be granted Shinigami Eyes to kill one person of the Kira's choice. If 2 days pass, the Kira gets 2 kills the following day and[COLOR="teal*] if a third day passes by[/color], the Kira gets 3 kills with Shinigami Eyes.

* It is -very- important that members who have Death Notes or pages inform the Shinigami as they get the items and also that the Kira communicates with the Shinigami when passing them out. This way I know who has a real DN and fake etc.

* The Shinigami may have to inquire the real first names of players since part of the rules of the game is that the Kira may 'kill' using them. Please, if you would, respond to PMs when inquired. Also, the Shinigami will post deaths in Pacific Standard time unless declared otherwise.

The Dead
You can 'die' in this game by 3 through the following methods.


1. The Kira figures out your first true name. This will be contained in the Death Note the Kira writes to the book aka PMs to the Shinigami.
2. The detective accuses a suspect that turns out to not be the Kira.
3. The Kira gains Shinigami Eyes.

* Dead people in the game cannot give out clues whether in the topic thread here or through PM or by IM. Those who are dead should not post frequently but are allowed to post some because well, they get bored. Just NO GIVING CLUES OUT!!

* The 'dead' may go ahead and post in another thread made called 'The Graveyard...' The link is http://www.kh-vids.net/showthread.php?t=59965 . Please still in this thread do not discuss openly your suspicions on who the Kira is.

Accusers/Detectives
Anyone who is in the game and who is not the Kira is a detective. However, the Kira has infiltrated the detective group and you cops know it. Figuring out who the Kira is happens to be your mission as you try to keep yourselves alive.

:ninjacat:
* Those who accuse someone of being the Kira may do so once as a freebie. This puts you in danger though of becoming a victim to the Kira, if you are mistaken. All people who join the game are considered detectives or accusers and there will be one or sometimes two kiras lurking in their midst which you must ferret out.

* You have ONE freebie where you do not have to provide evidence for your accusation. However, if you make a second accusation because the Kira hasn't killed you off, you must provide clear and concise evidence to back up why you are accusing the new person. If you get to for some reason accuse a 3rd time, etc, the same rule here applies.

* An amendment to the rule above. If there are less than 13 members on the list of players, to make things more difficult :) players will be required to present evidence when accusing someone the first time. If the member list is small for the round, it grants that detectives have to study a bit more and find an actual reason to accuse someone of being the Kira so the list isn't knocked out too soon.

* Remember that just because someone says he/she is not the Kira does not mean the person is innocent. The Kira is of course capable of lying and messing with your heads. The Kira may also make accusations and is basically going to often try to play the role of detective.

* Detectives are responsible for maintaining their lists of people that are alive, dead, accused, suspicious etc. There will be a post also here of some of that information, but do not depend on it as the Shinigami will only put on the list those who are members of the Round, those accused and those who have died. Also, it may not be updated as frequently as the detective lists.

The Kira
One (or two if the Shinagami is bored) Kira will be chosen to begin the game by the Shinigami PM'ing that person, or the Shinigami requesting those interested to PM him/her, and the person has the right to except or deny the role. If you happen to not know what the Kira is, it's the killer.

:registro5B15D:
* The Kira can only use the Death Note on people in the list here that are playing. This means you cannot have a kill that is someone else outside the game here.

* The Kira can kill using the 3 methods described above but may of course not use Shinigami Eyes until the Shinigami gives the go ahead.

*The Kira may choose at any time to pass on the Death Note to another player in the game. However, the Shinigami MUST be informed of the intent to do so and if the Misa/Mikami accepts or not.

* The Kira may hand out a page of the Death Note to be used by someone else. However, again, the Shinigami must know of the action. No more than 1 person at any time may have the Notebook. No more than one person may be given a page out of the Death Note. Giving out a page though means the Kira still possesses the Notebook.

* The Kira must kill at least one person per day. Just as the Shinigami Eyes may be granted to the Kira in order to kill someone as a freebie if detectives fail to come up with a suspect, the Shinigami will also stab the Kira in the back if the Kira fails to do his/her job. The Shinigami may react by giving out a clue as to who the Kira may be if no deaths occur within a day's time.

*On Names - The Kira may kill those on the list by knowing the person's true first name. A nickname does not count and the Shinigami of the time may need to verify the true name with the member before the kill is approved. There are various ways to find out people's first names such as browsing around the forums or asking the person, though either way may give clues to who the Kira really is. The Kira may only kill 2 people by true first name on the first day. If the Kira uses only 1 death this way or no deaths by name, the Kira gains 3 kills by name on the second day. If the Kira kills on the next day and does not use up all kills by name, again, 1 bonus name kill follows to the following day and so on. This rule is implemented since a few potential kiras know quite a few names and it makes it so they cannot take out a majority of the detectives in one fell swoop.

* On Fake Death Notes. Only a Kira or former Kira of the same round may hand out fake Death Notes. These are duplicate notebooks that basically do nothing but resemble the Death Note. There are no magical properties to them. It is possible to get a Shinigami to hand them out but at a cost...

Misa/Mikami
The Misa/Mikami is a person entrusted by the Kira to be in his/her game. The Misa may be entrusted with the Death Note at times or given papers from the Notebook. Also he/she may be given orders to do some things for the Kira to impede detective investigations.

:poke:
* The Misa/Mikami (person given the DN by the former Kira) has 3 choices to decide, which can be conversed over with the Shinigami.
1. Accept and be loyal to the cause of Kira.
2. Turn Kira in through an accusation made in the thread.
3. Accept the Death Note and kill the former Kira immediately or sometime during the game.

GENERAL NOTE: Whether Kira or a detective etc, no one who is not on the list of players for a round can play the game, such as helping with investigations etc. Please do not bring in outsiders not on the list of players. If they wish to participate they must first be on the list, which means making them post in the thread.

 

Are you saying that you had the deathnote this round.

*screems with rage*


I NEVER HAD THE DN THIS ROUND!!!

 

...this is still round 14, correct? So what happened in the past 2-3 days?

 

u died, dude XD

 

Not only that, but lets say I were Kira. I dont know many names, but I'd be able to kill the ones whose names I DID know, without a drawback whatsoever? Without them even accusing? How would they be able to enjoy the fun expireince this game brings if they're killed in 2 hours? (VGN, Saint)

 

I know I'm dead. Just want a recap.

 

i believe you can only kill so many people a day.

 

Apparently, i think the list says all.

We just actually posted spam-a-lot.

 

Death's never fair.

 

The rules need revamping. The DN must be held by one person? Rule was broken a long time ago.

But to answer your statement, there is no limit to kills. You can kill 3,4,5, people a day, whatever.

 

Just because you said that, I looked back at the rules, Kira can only make 2 name deaths a day. So basically you're wrong. Get over it.

 

Look at the first sentence in my last post. Perhaps it will help you understand better.

 

the rules were revamped because a number of people were being killed off right at the bat. Saint and Graxe were killed because of accusations.

Let's keep this under control people.

 

Then someone very similar to you has.
*glares at Kid Hero*

1.Apparently, ISCP sent this PM to all his suspects. I myself got one too. He just wanted to be Kira, and when he didn't respond, I thought he got it. He died before I could gather all of this, though.
2. No reason...?
You always have to have a reason, dude.

 

No, I mean I don't think you're Kira XD

Unless...

Are you? *glares*​

 

I know I'm not, but you're free to try it.
*glares back*

 

*glares everyone...... at the same time*

 

That takes some skill.
Bu, seriously. I'm watching you.
