Rogue OM Squad VII: Neapolitan

Winner: Rogues

Players: 41 Rogues: 7 + 1 convert

Moderators: Hazarath and Piplicus_BNO

Roles:

Name	Holder	Alignment	Description	Other
Ailing Hacker	tonko123, then Sweetbreeze_	Innocent	PWS variant that started with 8 'lives', and used up one each time they learned a player's alignment. If they ever received as many votes as they had lives remaining, they were automatically lynched.	Rogue Abiona lynched Sweetbreeze_ this way. Role initially given to tonko123, then reassigned to Sweetbreeze_ when tonko123 went inactive early in the game.
Bookkeeper	Ironguts	Neutral	Won with rogues if alive, or with town if dead.	Discovered after using an alt account to dispute rogue WingsOWisdom's role-claim; later lynched.
Thump	Rogue Team	Rogue	Each time a rogue slipped the phrase "I am not a rogue" into a post, they *thump*ed from the rogue account, until each rogue had done so. Following this, they posted a *thump**thump*, after which the next player who posted was converted to the rogue team.	Jolyma became a rogue.
Betrayer	Jolyma	Innocent	Showed as a rogue when hacked or lynched. Tasked with protecting the Vote Shy player for 5 rounds. If successful, becomes ban proof.
Vote Shy	Daleenmarine/7hranduil	Innocent	Could not vote or assign proxies for the first 5 rounds. The rogues had a challenge to guess which player was hiding a secret, and what that secret was (Daleenmarine could not vote). If they were correct, the Vote Shy player would commit suicide and leave the game. If they were not correct, the player would become an Ailing Hacker.	The rogues suspected the correct answer but did not submit it in time. This was later confirmed by Jolyma when she posted her role PM. The first night the Ailing Hacker power was available, Daleenmarine was replaced by 7hranduil. The rogues banned 7hranduil the same evening to prevent him from receiving/using the power.
Latecomer	Sweetbreeze_	Innocent	Given the master list of players and masquerade aliases, but could not participate until Round 3.	Originally planned to be a vanilla townie upon arrival, but was given the Ailing Hacker role after the original Ailing Hacker went inactive.

Notes: The first part of the game was played in costume, with players using alt accounts to impersonate fictional or historical figures.

The Dead Thread

The Dead Thread was first created during Return of the Rogue OM Squad (ROMSII) by Lyaka immediately following her ban. Frustrated by her inability to keep playing she suggested creating a place for dead players to talk. Several dead players posted expressing interest, including suggestions for implementation. Thus, the Dead Thread was born, hosted by Lyaka as a Google Document.

The Dead Thread was enough of a success during ROMSII to be revived in ROMSIII. Lyaka set it up once again immediately following her ban in Round II. Slow at first due to the lack of eligible players, it took off by the game's midpoint. The ROMSIII DT was still hosted as a Google Document, but it became apparent partway through the game that that was no longer functional. The number of participants and posts had grown too large for the Google Documents system to handle.

Flutie (Celiatr) offered her forum expertise to help setting up a more permanent home for the Dead Thread. In partnership, Flutie and Lyaka set up the Dead Thread subforums, which have hosted the Dead Threads for every game since.

The Island o' Limes

The Dead Thread came to be called by this alternate name because limes were a recurring theme in Return of the Rogue OM Squad. Starting with Drakes, who depicted dead players sitting on an island eating limes, players worked references to limes into nearly every ban scene written for ROMSII, often in the form of lime-flavored drinks being the Rogues' poison of choice. This post, compiled by MeegerMary, contains links to nearly every death scene written during ROMSII. The links are in order and showcase the lime theme progressing throughout the game.

Players on the Island o' Limes frequently consume imaginary alcohol, often tinted with lime, which can no longer hurt them.

ROMSIV, the first game to run as two parallel groups, called its two games ROMSIV Lime and ROMSIV Coconut. This is a direct reference to the lime theme (which has persisted through modern games, although less ubiquitously) and Argemone's death scene from ROMSII, specifically the lines

   "Hey Arge!" Said Drake, "they put the lime in the coconut, ey?"
   "And I drank them both up," Argemone muttered.

The Dead Thread Transcriptions

The old Dead Threads from the Google Documents days are being transcribed to the wiki for easier reading and preservation.

Return of the Rogue OM Squad Dead Thread

ROMS III Dead Thread

Intermissions

From Rogue OM Squad/New Player Help: "Occasionally, people get confused, and for a brief moment, think that the Rogue OM Squad is a fun game to take moderately seriously, rather than AN UTMOST IMPERATIVE MATTER OF LIFE OR DEATH."

As many ROMS players know, adopting such a whimsical view of the game can make the discussion take unexpected turns, diverting attention from the heated, but important argument about which wood burns with the most intoxicating fumes, to the trivial matter of catching rogues. Quite why anyone thinks catching rogues is the point of ROMS, nobody knows. Some scholars argue that this tradition started in ROMS III, when it was discovered that beech was the best wood to use at the time. Others argue that it took four games for the town to realize that their death was a bad thing. Either way, a certain pirate by the name of Piplicus took it upon himself to rectify the diversion when necessary.

If the conversation was straying away from trolling, he would post images of the moderator killing kittens, to incense the community. This strategy worked until the start of ROMS V, when he was sent an angry letter by an OceanMaster (who is to remain unnamed), telling him that he had gotten everything the round way round. After a bribe of 690,000 PoE, the OceanMaster kindly agreed to remove all past 'intermissions', so Piplicus could start afresh.

Now, when the conversation is becoming too hostile, or if he's feeling particularly artsy and bored, he will post an Intermission to lighten the atmosphere. Such intermissions receive mixed reviews, ranging from masochistic dispassion, to infatuation with desire to share gametes.

The Wiki

The New Player Guide to ROMS page is a cooperative work. Many of the tips presented were adapted from a post made by Jolyma in ROMS VI, with bits added in from a post of Talisker's. Many of the charts were originally compiled by Lyaka, and the page was separated into new player help and ROMS history by AhoyLindsay. However, many other players have also improved the page.

Miscellaneous

That Damn Ban Scene: A ban scene used first in ROMS II (written by Hazarath and Freddunkins) but reused waaaaaaaaaaaay too frequently: "'Twas a dark and stormy night, all the pirates that had any sense were either cozy in their house, or having a few drinks in the inn. Little did they know that that night would be the start of a Reign of Terror.

Elsewhere, Captain Cleaver was standing beside the surging waves on the docks chatting with fellow pirates about familiars. "There's been too many tan familiars lately," one pirate remarked, "we need more forum events to balance out the influx of automatic tan events. Tan Familiars are ruining the game." No one noticed the dark figure creeping up behind the famed CEO, until he silently sank to the ground, blood pooling around him.

Later that day, a meeting of all the OMs was called. As they gathered, they found a note stuck on the door of their estate: Be wary.

Thus, the Revolution of the Rogue OMs began anew. All remembered the horror of the first uprising, and hoped to quell it as soon as possible. Thus, 35 Pirates were selected to find, and ban, those who call themselves the Rogue OMs.

Run now, while you still can."

Full Name	Nickname	Games Used	Explanation
Password Stealer/Detective	PWS, Type I Diviner (ROMSV Wild Mango)	ROMSII, ROMSV Wild Mango, ROMSVI	A player with the special ability to detect Innocent or Rogue status. As played in ROMS, it's usuable once per round. Some special roles may block the PWS power. see also Betrayer, see also Overlord
Clueholder		ROMSII, ROMSV Wild Mango	A player who has been given a clue from the Moderator. As played in ROMS, the clueholder is always Innocent. In ROMSV Wild Mango, the clue was always true. However, in ROMSII, one of the three clues was false, and the fact of its falsehood was one of the three clues.
RogueOMKilla		ROMSII, ROMSV Vanilla (under a different name)	A dummy account, used to reincarnate a dead player after the first round. The first of the lynched or banned players to contact the mod won the rights to continue playing under this alternate account, theoretically anonymous.
Lost Treasure		ROMSV Wild Mango	The bearer of Lost Treasure used to have a clue... but then they lost it! Only if they are lynched can the treasure (a clue) be returned to the town. This role conforms to the Clueholder standard of the holder being a guaranteed Innocent.
Designated Officer	DO	ROMSV Wild Mango	The Designated Officers formed a chain of Innocents who each knew one other person down the line. Pirate A knows Pirate B is Innocent, while Pirate B knows Pirate C is Innocent, et cetera. Pirate B has no way of knowing about Pirate A other than accepting their word at face value. The chain did not 'wrap' in Wild Mango.
Role Diviner		ROMSV Wild Mango (as type II Diviner)	A player who is able to detect the role of another player, but not their status as Innocent or Rogue. As played in ROMS, it's usable once per round.
Blind Drunk		ROMSV Wild Mango	The Blind Drunk has a special role, but they don't know what it is. Sometimes the Blind Drunk has to complete a quest to recieve their role. In ROMSV Wild Mango, the Blind Drunk's power was to become the Restless Dead if lynched. see Restless Dead.
Restless Dead		ROMSV Wild Mango	The Restless Dead is a zombie who may post in the forums as if they are still alive, but is not permitted to cast a vote and does not count towards the round's vote total. Once per round, during the banning period, they could name a living pirate (via PM to the mods) who would then be mod-banned with status revealed. In order to remove the Restless Dead from the game, they must be the victim of a straight lynch (a lynch with more than 50% of the town voting for the Restless Dead). see straight lynch.
Vehemently Innocent		ROMSV Wild Mango	The person with this role is Innocent- vehemently so. They must use the word Innocent twice in every single post and refuse to explain why other than repeatedly proclaiming their innocence. If they succeed, they get a small bonus. If they fail, they are mod-banned.
Powder Keg		ROMSV Wild Mango	The Powder Keg is explosive. If lynched, the explosion kills the person who cast the final vote. If banned, the explosion kills a random Rogue. see Terrorist. see Governor's Son.
Doctor	"Doc"	ROMSVI	The Doctor can protect one player from banning every night. As played in ROMS, this power must be delcared every round to the Mods. The Doctor may protect themself.
Red Shirt	Ensign Ricky	ROMSV Wild Mango	The Red Shirt can throw themselves in front of Captain Kirk any player to protect them from banning for the space of one round. As played in ROMSV Wild Mango, the power could only survive three 'rescues'. (A rescue occured when the Rogues' target matched the protectee of the Red Shirt.) After the first rescue, a reference to red shirts must be included in the survival scene as written by the surviving player. After the second rescue, the holder of the role must write a survival scene. After the third rescue, the Red Shirt is banned in the place of their protectee. Additionally, the player cannot protect themself.
Aztec Gold	Goldholders	ROMSV Wild Mango	The Aztec Gold were eight pieces of eight given to eight random players at the start of ROMSV Wild Mango. They could be passed from player to player with a simple mod PM and did not have to be passed to original goldholders. Legend had it that if all eight were collected on a single player, a mysterious power would be revealed. This power was to be the ability to revive as a one-time action after a lynch or a ban. see *THUMP*.
*THUMP*/*thump*		ROMSV Wild Mango	*thump* was posted in the thread by the moderator after each time all of the posessors of the Aztec Gold have posted. *THUMP* was posted if it directly followed a post by a holder of Aztec Gold.
Fated Pair	Two-For-One Special	ROMSVI Wild Mango	A role held by two players, one of whom is Innocent, and the other of whom is a Rogue. The Pair only win if they are the only two remaining alive, regardless of their teams. If one of the two is killed, regardless of method, the other one is also killed.
Medium		ROMSVI Wild Mango	The Medium had the power to speak with the dead. Once per round, they could pose a question to a dead player. The dead player's answer did not have to be factual.
Vote Crazy		ROMSVI Wild Mango	The player must cast a vote in every post they make. They are not permitted to explain why, other than saying "Because they're my top FOS", or they will be mod-banned. At the end of round five, and every fifth round thereafter, if the conditions have been complied with, they could ask one yes/no question of the mod that would be truthfully answered.
Governor's Son		ROMSV Wild Mango	Once per game, the Governor's Son could call in the marines to kill a player of their choice. This kill counted as a lynch, revealing the player's status.
Overlord		ROMSV Wild Mango	A Rogue with the special power to read as Innocent if divined by the PWS/Type I Diviner. The role is visible to the Roles Diviner/Type II Diviner and the player reads as a Rogue if lynched. The Overlord must taunt the crew once per round to maintain their smokescreen. see Betrayer.
Betrayer		ROMSVI	A Rogue with the special power to read as Innocent if lynched or divined by the PWS. see Overlord.
Terrorist		ROMSVI	By announcing their identity in the thread, the Terrorist may trigger an explosive device killing them and any one player they choose. The status of the dead player is not revealed (as with bans). The Terrorist is Rogue, so a successful explosion confirms the role and the status for the Terrorist. Because the Terrorist is a Rogue, they are immune from banning. However, the Terrorist operates solo; they do not start the game with the knowledge of the identity of the other Rogues, and the other Rogues do not know the identity of the Terrorist. see Powder Keg. see Governor's Son.
Pyromaniac		ROMS9.25	A player with the special ability that is triggered when banned or lynched. If lynched, you set the last person to vote for you on fire. If banned, you attempt to take one of your attackers with you, using kerosine you keep by your bed.
Super Sekrit P4wer (SSP)		ROMSII	Given to the Rogues in ROMSII. The power allowed them to subvert an Innocent to their side if they first banned one of their own.

Also referred to as the "Don't look at me, no Rogues here" or the "I must be innocent because I don't know something the Rogues do know" tell, but these were determined to be too long and clunky in ROMS VI. Later in the thread GreatBob provided an associated captioned image. see Common Rogue Tells First use

The term originates from ROMSVI, courtesy of Ghadhean, in reference to ROMSV Wild Mango. see also Betrayer, Wolf, Bunny First use; Ghadhean's correction

|Bunny |ROMSV Wild Mango (Circle of Rainbows and Bunnies and Trust and Absolutely-For-Sure Innocents) |A Bunny is a Confirmed Innocent (CI), usually a member of a group of such CIs (or "bunny group"). Their status is usually the result of detection by a PWS-esque role, or having proven to hold a clue. The term dates from ROMSV Wild Mango, in which a plethora of roles led to the group of Bunnies being larger than ever seen before or to date, and the identities of most of the bunnies becoming known to the main thread. In the heated discussion that followed over whether or not the CI group had a traitor in their midst (see special roles), they were referred to as the Circle of Rainbows and Bunnies and Trust and Absolutely-For-Sure Innocents. Shortly thereafter avatars to that effect began to be used by members of the Bunny group and the term stuck. see also hassenfeffer. see also bunny avatar (image)].
