TVT Chameleon

Go To

Grabbed from this, who grabbed it from this. Basically the TVT adaptation of "The Chameleon".


Here's how the game works:

Say we start with eight players.

  1. To start off, I'll pick a chameleon using the famed WheelOfNames.com.
  2. I'll think of a word and let the other 7 know.
  3. Say the word is "Station", One player will respond "Train". Another will respond "Fire". So on and so forth until I wake up again or everyone has filled in their guesses, which is faster.
  4. A discussion period will start where players will discuss and think who's suspicious.
  5. After 24 hours have passed or the host says so, a voting period will start, and will only end if the everyone has voted or what constitutes the majority of the votes go to one player. If the chameleon is voted out, everyone wins. And if not, the game will continue.
If there are two players standing, the Chameleon wins.
Oh, and here are some rules:
  1. No showing the word.
  2. No repeats.
  3. Do not have your word be the exact same as this round's word.
  4. Have fun!

So, now you know. I'll wait for 12 hours and accept as many players as possible. As early as the hours have passed, I will roll the wheel and begin the game.

Scratcher has been voted out...

Scratcher was not the chameleon. Things are getting interesting!

I'll send out the next keyword in a few minutes.

Tbh I never really hated his minigames in the original, but they did make them better in the remake.

Pbskids is the most suspicious now, due to the progress of elimination. If not, then Janky. (any one who posts first is definitely not, and according to first round, it is hard to be Janky)

Still waiting for Janky's vote. (Obviously I don't expect him to vote for himself, but just as a formality.)

I'm not convinced it's so cut and dry, but I'll vote Pbs since we're already going that direction.

Pbskidsfan has been voted out... and Pbskidsfan was the chameleon, so the others win!


Well, that's it for this round. Good game, I enjoyed hosting.

I see what Bluethorn was saying about it being impossible to win as the Chameleon now. Since I don't know the word, I can never post firstnote , so if all the other tropers posted first, then it's not possible to win.

That being said, I did have fun blending in while it lasted! I might host the next round if that position is open.

Also, the other sites where this game is hosted have some different ways to play, as well as criteria for the Chameleon winning. Just thought that was interesting.

[down] On NationStates, the host provides a list of the given words, while Sporcle has the host give a starter word at the beginning of each round. Also on Sporcle, the Chameleon has to get past 5 rounds out of 10 people playing (so until there are 5/10 players left, not 2/8 or 2/6.)

Alright, so 12-hour sign-up phase 3: We Have to Find The Key.

I'm still a player. Blue can open up the host spot or keep hosting.
