Vore_Lottery
The rules are set for now. Looking for people who want to be GM host the game on a regular basis alongside me. I'll be supporting them whenever possible.
Other people can set up and play the game, but do so without my approval and consent, as such I wouldn't count them as official Vore_Lottery games. If things go awry, I will not take responsibility.
Vore Lottery
1 Game master
5-15 participants
The idea: You choose the predator, you choose the prey, but be careful, nobody is completely safe. A game that daring predators, willing to run the risk of ending up a meal themselves, switch and even full prey characters can enjoy. There's a bit of a random element while the majority of the decisions is made by popular vote, allowing for alliances, agreements and cooperation, but can you really trust those promises? Only the Game Master knows.
I know it's a lot to read, I'll probably make some sort of Player Handbook once the rules are set.
Phase 1 ~Scheming, Intrigue & Haunting prey~ 15 minutes
Vore Lottery is a fairly simple game based on the idea that each player gets two lottery tickets each turn, a red slip of paper on which they put down the name of the predator they vote for this turn, and a green slip of parchment on which they put down they write them name of whoever they think should be prey this turn. But be careful, if a participants name doesn't come up as predator, each vote for them as prey counts double, the same thing works the other way around, if a participant is not voted for as prey, each vote for them as predator is worth twice as much, so choose carefully, choose wisely. Of course a player can write down their own name, just to be sure the votes for them aren't doubled! During this time everyone is encouraged to engage in conversation and other activities, eating each other is not allowed, anything else is fair game so long as the participants cast their votes at the start of Phase 2.
NEW: [HAUNTING PREY][Close]
To make things less boring for those who are out of the game but choose to watch there's a new extra rule: They take away 0.5 modifier from a character of their choice from either predator or prey votes! This means that if a character has 4 votes for them as predator, 1 vote as prey and hasn't been chosen by the Wheel of Vore, the ghost of a player can reduce their modifier for predator votes to 0.5 meaning their 4 votes now only count as 2! The prey has to inform the Game Master of their choice during Phase 1.
This is a powerful trick and can only be used once a game by players who have been eaten, they can try to help out a friend or try to get revenge on their predator. It is NOT allowed to make arrangements or let people know that they're using their power prior to them turning prey or after. Should the Game Master sense foul play, they can choose to ignore the haunting prey.
Phase 2 ~Voting! & Immunity Gamble~
Everyone submits their votes to the Game Master who then starts counting votes. People can continue chatting and interacting, taunt each other and try to guess who's going to be predator and who's going to be prey. The game master will announce when they have all the votes, so don't boast too early!
During Phase 2 the Game Master will also announce if there has been a prey haunting the players, but will not tell who the ghost is and what they have modified.
Before the Game Master announces the predator and prey a player who feels that he might be voted as prey can make a desperation move and try for the
[IMMUNITY GAMBLE][Close]
During Phase 2 and before the Game Master announces the predator and prey, a player can choose to approach the game master publicly to take a chance to gain immunity to being selected as prey this round! However, this comes with a huge risk. The player will roll a dice (!1d100) AFTER the Game Master announces that everyone has voted. Should the result be a 40 or lower, they fall prey to the game master! If the result is a 41-60, nothing happens and they stay in the lottery and their votes count. If they roll 61-100, the player gains immunity to being prey that round! The Immunity Gamble and only be used once per game!
Phase 3 ~ Vore & The Wheel of Vore~ 20 minutes
During this phase everyone is allowed to chat and interact while watching the predator devour their prey in whichever way they want. (With respect to the player preferences.) Should the chosen predator be unable or unwilling to do this, the prey is handed over to the game master who can choose a predator or do the deed themselves.
To make things more interesting, one player each round, assuming they have not been chosen as predator or prey, can volunteer to spin the
[WHEEL OF VORE.][Close]
The volunteer will spin the wheel (!1dr) to gain a random player a +0.5 modifier for their votes as either prey or predator, this is up to the one spinning the wheel! However caution is advised, if the Game Master is selected, the volunteer falls prey to them during the upcoming Phase 1. If a player who has already fallen prey is chosen, the volunteer can back away and nothing happens, or they can spin the wheel again for a full +1 point modifier, effectively doubling the votes for either predator or prey votes of the selected character, but once again risk being eaten if the game master is selected by the Wheel. This can be repeated until an eligible character is chosen, but the modifier will stay at +1 after the first round. If there is more than one volunteer a simple 1d20! will determine who gets to spin.
We then return to Phase 1 after the predator has finished their meal. Once a player becomes prey for either the predator or game master, they are out of the game and can no longer vote.
Extra Rules:
Once a game has started, please keep the private messages to the Game Master to a minimum, if it's a simple question asking in public with ((Brackets)) will often give you the right answer.
If you are confused with the modifiers or another rule, feel free to ask the game master before the game starts or after the game is finished, not during the game if it can be avoided.
This is probably the most important rule and guideline:
If one player wants to send a private message to another player to form an alliance or win over their votes, they have to announce it to the other players that they are doing so.
Example:
Pakusha beckons Lisa to come over to whisper something in the girl's ear. - Lisa heads over to listen to what Pakusha has to say. -Pakusha to Lisa (private): Let's vote for you as pred and that guy as prey.- Pakusha nods and smiles, then shakes Lisa's hand. - Lisa chuckles and winks while licking her lips before shaking Pakusha's hand.
It is important that those whispers are treated as role playing. A player cannot have a private conversation with 5 people at the same time! Of course this cannot be monitored, but if the game master senses foul play or a player is reported for cheating on this, they can be excluded from the game.
If predator and prey agree on it they can move the actual vore to private if they want to spend more time on it, but a quick public post should be there for the other players to see. Alternatively it can be dragged out into Phase 1 if the predator is willing to cut the time they have to plot the next round, but this is not encouraged, the vore on display in the game should be more of a sample than an all out RP due to the nature of this being a group scene, others are waiting, even if they enjoy the show!
New: The predator, if they eat their prey and don't pass them over to the GM or another player, will earn a -0.5 modifier to their prey votes in the next round.
If there's a tie in pred or prey votes, their votes for the opposite role are used to break the tie by subtracting them from the others. If the votes are exactly the same even after that, they both whisper a number betwen 1 and 100 to the game master, the game master rolls a d100 and whoever is closest wins. If they happen to whisper the same number to the game master, they will both be eaten by the game master. This usually happens when there are only few players left.
If there's a tie in the last round, which is not guaranteed, the ghost of some prey still around able to haunt and influence the outcome. The tie breaker will get an additional feature, for every prey a player in the last round has eating throughout the game, they get a bonus of 5 helping their guess towards the GM's roll. Example: Lisa has eaten 1 player throughout the game and her guess is 41. Pakusha has eaten 5 players throughout the game and her guess is 72. The Game Master rolls 49. Lisa has earned 5 points, Pakusha 25, Lisa's guess changes to 46 whereas Pakusha will be spot on since she only needs 23 points to land on 49. The result Pakusha wins and eats Lisa.
Winner is whoever is the last player!

AFK Rules
In a game that usually last several hours, it is only natural that someone has to go afk for a while. Whether this is planned or unexpected doesn't really matter too much.
If someone knows that they have to leave and won't be back, they have to inform the rest of the game and will be eaten by the Game Master or a predator the Game Master selects.
If someone has to leave for a short amount of time 30-60 minutes, they should inform the other players and the Game Master. In this case, they can still be voted for as predator or prey by the other players, they are even allowed to put in their votes for the next round if they have to leave before or during Phase 1. Naturally they won't be plotting and scheming anymore which can be a disadvantage and punishment in itself. If they get voted as predator or prey and are not back by Phase 3, the game moves on into Phase 1, the player who has been voted prey will still be treated as such and can no longer vote even if they are not eaten yet, which will have to wait until the AFK player is back.
If someone has to leave for a long time or disappears unannounced, the Game Master can choose to declare them prey and consequently eat them or have someone else do so IF they return.
