Based on the tradition of Advent Calenders, I came up with an idea. Which is why you're here, correct?

basically, each phase you pick a number between 1 and 25. This number determines your power for the phase. You can only pick a number once. Sound interesting?

Oh yeah, it would also be an 'every man for themself' game. Yay.

That could be interesting.

Just a few questions:
1. Would the players know what ability they're using before they choose a target? Or would it be blind "imma target that guy, let's hope it's a kill/protect/whatever I want to do to him ability"? Or are the targets random?

2. Would the abilities used be known in the thread? Like, "person X got Y as their ability!" Or would errything remain a mystery?

Would there be a list of roles showing which number gave which power, or would it all be down to chance?

Also, would there be capacity for two or three people to win as a coalition?

Personally, I think an unknown list of abilities would be more interesting than knowing what'll happen with number 21.

The coalition idea/problem is a good point though.

@Shadow: You would get told the ability for the number, and then choose a target. Also, abilities wouldn't be known in the thread.

@U9K: There wouldn't be a list of abilities. Also, this would be a SINGLE-PERSON WIN game only. AKA Backstabbing.

I just remembered about this today, and thought that I may as well announce that the premise is free for anyone here to use. So yeah.That is all.
