Rule 14. To balance the late game, the Judges will share a decreasing number of votes between them as the game goes on. They'll still have enough to tip the scales though. [[forestgreen:Ssendri, you never told floran how the votess will decrease. You should have told floran.]][[green:Shh, it'ss up in the air, floran hassn't figured out balance yet.]]

Yesterday, everything seemed relatively normal. Today, however, feels like one of ''those'' days. This first impression is only confirmed by the fact that you have a horrific headache, and a high pitched chiming is being repeatedly sounded. As you come to your senses, you look around. You're in a medium room with a wonderful view of the stars, in all directions, only interrupted by the limbs of an enormous space station. This otherwise nice view is completely ruined by a large TV screen right in the middle of the window. From the speakers around the TV screen, the obnoxious chiming sound continues to play, overlapping with itself, being cut off and starting over again, and generally being the worst noise you've ever heard. As the other people around the table come to their collective senses, the TV flares to life, revealing nine individuals in a dark, home-theater looking room. The tall leafy green one, dressed in red and a bulletproof vest, and repeatedly hitting a button on a remote, presumably controlling the annoying chiming, speaks.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/thealliancestfcmndlanddrdr.PNG]]

[[gray:''SNOOOORE'']] [[grey:huh, wha? Oh. Hi.]]

<Picture goes here.>

[[gray:''[=gZzzZKhhHhh=]'' huh, what? Oh. Hi]]

[[teal:''Howdy, Y'all!'']]

[[teal:''Oh, an' this round has a sponsor in Timeline Master Awe, who Ah owed a favor, so he gets to be called the sponsor of this round.'']]

The second plant creature then presses a button on a remote, and the presentation starts.

Conduct Rule 4. It is expected of players that they remain active in the thread. If a player does not post or actively participate for over 48 hours, they will be executed and considered DEAD.

Conduct Rule 6. No post editing. Yes, that includes to fix mistakes. You may make a second post, but never edit your post.

Rule 8. Execution is by majority vote. Votes are formatted as /Vote (The person you want to vote off). Players can retract their vote at any time before a majority is reached, but once a majority is reached, no votes can be retracted, and the execution will proceed once we get back. [[forestgreen:And we get ssome bonuss fun for oursselves.]]

Rule 12. Each of the Alliance directors has their own table of likes and dislikes, own animosities and friendships with other members, own behaviors, and own bet on who makes it out alive. They also each have a ranked list of favorite players. Those who can manipulate the Alliance members, especially late game, will have a much easier time of it.

Rule 13. The Alliance is made of ruthless dictators. They're all too happy to let their favorite players bend the rules a little bit. They can get you items you might want, gain you access to otherwise restricted areas, and other fun stuff like that. [[green:Liwari, why did you put that there? We don't cheat, right?]]

[[forestgreen:Anyway, that'ss the presentation, Ssendri. Good?]]

[[green:Yess, very good. Now, let'ss get sstarted, shall we? We have you all on file, but it would be nice if you'd fill out a sheet in thiss format. Feel free to add additional information as needed.]]

[[green:Greetingss, variousss foess of ourss! Good to ssee you are here. Welcome to the Alliance'sss version of all these murdergames showing up acrosss all of fiction! Now, as a fictional group oursselvess, we figured we should collect a few of our foess and tosss them in a wing together. Normally, we'd have jusst fired you into a sstar by now, but quite frankly, Floran was bored, Hydroxyl had a recording and owed a favor, Tenysssan had an idea, and Ssteeltower over there has a ploy.]]

[[gray:huh, what? Oh. Hi]]

[[blue:It will be pleasing to watch you die.]]

[[teal:''Howdy!'']]

[[cinnamon:Hello. Good to see you all lined up there.]]

[[evil:[[cinnamon:Traitors get their just punishment. It's in the hands of Kluex and us now.]]]]

As the creature sits back down, the others stir, up steps the one referred to as Hydroxyl.

The second plant creature waves when their name is said, then presses a button.

[[green:Yess, very good. Now, let'ss get sstarted, shall we? We have you all on file, but it would be nice if you'd fill out a sheet in thiss format. Feel free to add additional information as needed.

As the creature sits back down, many of the others stir, in order to say their parts. Up steps the one referred to as Hydroxyl.

Conduct Rule 2. Nigh on any sort of character will be approved, as the Alliance is very accepting (though I retain the right to veto certain characters if they flagrantly violate NSFW rules or something along those lines.) But remember, anyone can die. However, don't conflate in-character conflict and out-of-character conflict. The character you are playing may be an absolute jerk, but you should not be to your fellow players out-of-character.

Conduct Rule 5. No telling people who the murderers are outside of this thread, if you know but are dead. If I get alerted to such behavior, you will be barred from participating again.

Rule 2. There are two teams. Team innocents, who's goal is to stop the murderers by executing them, and team murderers, who's job is to kill innocents until the teams are equal in size.

Rule 3. Unlike some of the murdergames, the night phase will NOT end when there is a kill. The night phase will continue until the posted time. This is to prevent induction of who the murderer is based on out-of-game knowledge, such as time-zones and who was active and posting at the time.

Rule 4. All actions at night must be [=DM'd=] to me, else they will not happen. I will be keeping careful track of the map and player locations as well, so keep that in mind. You may also [=DM=] me covert actions during the day.

Rule 6. The murderer team will have a number of members based on how many people I think will be fair for the game. This could be anywhere from 2 to 4, depending on how many signups we get.

Rule 7. No stalling will be permitted. If no deaths happen in 2 day phases and 2 night phases in a row, the team which most recently killed someone wins, and the Alliance executes every person on the other team.

Rule 8. Execution is by majority vote. Votes are formatted as /Vote (The person you want to vote off). Players can retract their vote at any time before majority is reached, but once a majority is reached, no votes can be retracted, and the execution will proceed once I get back.

Rule 10. The players are NOT the only people who get to vote! The seven directors of the Alliance have bets placed on who makes it out alive, and are watching this for their own entertainment after all. At the start of each day phase, they vote. If a majority of them agree on a least favorite player, that player receives three votes towards the majority for their execution. If a plurality agree, the holder of the largest plurality receives two votes, and the holder of the second largest plurality receives one. (In the event of a tie, which plurality receives the votes is determined randomly.) If there is no consensus at all, the votes are assigned randomly.

Rule 11. Each of the Alliance directors has their own table of likes and dislikes, own animosities and friendships with other members, own behaviors, and own bet on who makes it out alive. They also each have a ranked list of favorite players. Those who can manipulate the Alliance members, especially late game, will have a much easier time of it.

Rule 12. The Alliance is made of ruthless dictators. They're all too happy to let their favorite players bend the rules a little bit. They can get you items you might want, gain you access to otherwise restricted areas, and other fun stuff like that.

Rule 13. Every new day phase, a randomly chosen event will happen at some point during the day. The nature of these events will not be revealed beforehand, but possible effects can include removing some judges from the voting for the day, sealing off rooms for the day, and other such effects.

Rule 14. To balance the late game, the Judges will share a decreasing number of votes between them as the game goes on. They'll still have enough to tip the scales though.

* Other stuff probably, but I cannot currently think of any.

* 9. Writing like writing a pseudo-resume of misery and poor skill.

* 13. Being active on the TRS and ATT threads from time to time.

As per troper page standard, I have a list here of recommended things.

Hi! I'm Florien. I edit {{Wiki/TVtropes}} sometimes, and the documentarians were largely correct in my opinions on stuff. They missed several opinions on stuff, but those can happen later. I'm moderately competent at things, at least I would like to think so. I can play chess, consistently win at Civilization V on King difficulty, and drink non-toxic beverages. I have been told I am a good writer by some, but I am not confident in their assessment due to my possible proliferation of run-on sentences and probable lack of ability to write dialogue. I hope to someday learn how. I am known for such things as:

As per standard, I have a list here of recommended things.

* {{VideoGame/Return Of The Obra Dinn}}: Play it, play it, play it, but avoid spoilers. It's one of the few games I like with virtually nil in replay value though, so keep that in mind.

Documentarian: Cedriel Tservin

The wild florien is occasionally seen editing, but more frequently, is known to linger around the ATT and TRS threads, and haunt the list of PagesNeedingWicks, waiting for a chance to prey upon an unworthy trope, or fix a failing but valid one, so as to improve the health of the trope ecosystem. They also help people out where they can in the Trope Finder and YKTS. Wild florien are known for liking relatively unknown video games as well as some better known ones. Florien can occasionally be seen hunting natter in trope pages, and promptly purging it. Wild florien are also known for a reasonable amount of knowledge on various topics, and for learning quickly on what should be done where. Finally, Wild florien are known for attempting to figure out the ranking of things they like relative to one another, and wasting time because they rarely settle upon a permanent order for such things.

Media Known to be enjoyed by wild florien, as described by this particular florien (Yes, the plural is the same as the singular. Like deer, except they have nothing to do with deer.)

* {{VideoGame/Geneforge}}: They are slightly more partial to the odd numbered ones on average.

* {{VideoGame/Westerado}}: They claim the full release (AKA: Double Barreled) is very good.

* {{VideoGame/Avadon}}: Same people involved as with Geneforge. They claim it is "Very good, though not as good."

* {{VideoGame/Starbound}}: They claim it is pretty good, though the page itself might need a bit of work differentiating the beta from the full release.

* {{VideoGame/Dwarf Fortress}}: They claim to have once accidently made a character essentially unhittable by anything in adventure mode by being stuck fighting literally thousands of trolls for hours, and then doubling their evasion modification stats by vampirizing. This claim would be dubious, if not for the bug that causes goblin fortresses to spawn thousands of trolls.

* {{Wiki/TVTropes}}: This should be self evident, as it is one of their major habitats in the internet wilds.

MORE TO BE ADDED WHEN THE DOCUMENTARIAN GETS BACK

Note: Cedriel the documentarian never returned. Their reply was quote, "I'm eating a sandwich, bother me later." unquote. They were promptly dismissed. Further listing will be done by new documentarian.

Documentarian: B. D. C. Jr. (No relation to other famous B. D. C.'s Jr.)

The wild florien is known for many things. Those things include, but are not limited to, being alive, and being sapient. The continued list of things that wild florien are known to like are as follows.
----

* {{Film/Twelve Angry Men}}: The florien thinks that this is a very good movie indeed.

Here, the florien being interviewed went off on a tangent about some other things they found of poor quality. The list was rattled off rather quickly, but the list of subjects being ranted about included

* {{Film/Jupiter Ascending}}: Quote, "Boring. So so boring. Only good bit was the bureaucracy montage."

* {{Film/Titanic 1997}}: Quote, "Why do people like this again? Never understood the appeal."

* {{Theatre/The Phantom of the Opera}}: Quote, "This is stalking, not romance. More importantly, it's not even entertaining without considering the deeply flawed story."

At this point, the florien went off on a second, seemingly unrelated tangent. This probably belies something about their overall train of thought situation. The tangent was about how people obsessing over their data being collected and sold online are, quote, "Grossly overreacting" and how selling information to get access to a service is like, quote "Spending the same money over and over again and never running out." and then continued, saying "What's the big deal about targeted advertisements?" Then, after some effort, they were dragged, seemingly unwillingly, back on topic.
* {{VideoGame/Papers Please}}: Quote, "A classic in bureaucracy simulation. Very good, very fun."

* {{VideoGame/Return Of The Obra Dinn}}: Quote, "Play it, play it, play it, but avoid spoilers. It's one of the few games I like without much replay value."

Here, they failed to think of anything else they particularly liked at the time, and promptly left. They refused to apply tropes to themselves, in open defiance of standard troper page procedure. They fired me, but forgot to take away my keys. I will

[Editor's Note.] Here the documentarian stopped. There is sufficient evidence to suggest they were caught while typing this, and were thrown out or worse. A third documentarian showed up, named Mr. Q. J. Bitterman III, but they didn't even start writing before they had a tragic accident relating to a colander, a slice of plain cheesecake, a slice of pumpkin cheesecake, and a plunger. They survived, but needless to say, they could not continue their duties. Further Documentation is to be carried out directly by the interviewed florien.

* 2. Losing frequently at games, but usually persevering long enough to figure them out, before hitting a wall and staying perpetually "above average but not great" at them.
* 3. Being a fast learner.
* 4. Being very slow at entering online communities, generally existing primarily as a lurker or a silent worker for a few months before engaging in any particular manner.
* 5. Being up at odd hours, mostly late at night, and doing much work then.
* 6. Not being confident enough to add trope examples, but being confident enough to rework or remove them.
* 7. Probably other stuff too.
* 8. Adding stuff after generalization.
* 9. Writing like writing a pseudo-resume of misery and poor skill.
* 10. Making up slightly forgettable names.
