As I had to modify the game for only 25 players, here is the revised role list:

CIVVIES (13)
Violet Baudelaire – Violet is a brilliant inventor. She will create a new device every night and send it to a player of her choice.

Klaus Baudelaire – Klaus loves to read, and is constantly learning. Twice in the game Klaus can send in a role and discover which player has that role.

Sunny Baudelaire – Sunny may be small, but her teeth are razor sharp. To defend her siblings, Sunny will kill every even night.

Mr. Poe – Mr. Poe is the executor of the Baudelaire estate, but even though he means well, he is unbelievably incompetent. Every night Mr. Poe will try to help a player. There is a 1/3 chance that player will be blocked, a 1/3 chance they will be silenced, and a 1/3 chance they will be killed.

Dr. Montgomery Montgomery – Uncle Monty is one of the few kind, reasonable people in this story. He will protect a player every night by hiding them in his Reptile Room.

Josephine Anwhistle – Aunt Josephine is afraid of nearly everything, but she's never afraid to correct someone's grammar. She will select a statement each night and discover whether it is true or false.

Hector – Hector is a friendly handyman. He may use his flying machine to stop one lynch and switch another.

Jerome Squalor – Jerome is a decent guy, but he's a total pushover at first. Every other day Jerome's vote will increase by 1.

Isadora Quagmire – BTSC with Duncan.

Duncan Quagmire – BTSC with Isadora.

Hal – Hal works in the Library of Records. He will search the records to role check a player every night.

Justice Strauss – In the event of a tie, Justice Strauss' vote will be the tie breaker.

Kit Snicket - SECRET


BADDIES (8)

COUNT OLAF'S TROUPE (4)
Count Olaf – He is obsessed with the Baudelaire fortune, and will stop at nothing to get it. Olaf is a master of digsuise, so if role checked he will come back as a random civvie. SECRET

The Hook-Handed Man – He may discover the identity of a dead player every night.

The Powder-Faced Women – Their vote counts for two as long as at least one other member of the Troupe votes the same way.

The Person of Indeterminate Gender – This huge androgynous person will block a player every night.


THE GHASTLY GUARDIANS (4)
Esme Squalor – Esme is obsessed with fashion and high society. She won't allow herself to be lynched unless she gets at least two-thirds of the votes. SECRET

Vice Principal Nero – Nero is the tyrannical authority at Prufrock Preparatory School. He will dole out a different punishment to a player every night.

Carmelita Spats – Carmelita is a spoiled, obnoxious rich kid. Her wealth allows her to buy a player off every night. If that person attempts to target Carmelita, it will fail on the first attempt.

Sir – Sir is the co-owner of the Lucky Smells Lumbermill and a ruthless businessman. Every night Sir can redirect a player's power.


INDEPENDENT (4)

THE VILLAGE OF FOWL DEVOTEES (2) – The Village of Fowl Devotees are a reclusive, authoritarian society with a strict code of laws. However, they are not actively malicious. They will win by surviving to the end. Each night the VFD has a block and a protect to use between them.

Mrs. Morrow

Mr. Lesko


Olivia Caliban – Olivia just wants to make everyone happy, but she can't please everyone. She can use her crystal ball to role check a player every night, and on Night 5 she must choose a team to align with.


Ishmael – Ishmael is the leader of a peaceful island community. Every night he will attempt to recruit a player. He will have a 50% chance of bringing them into his fold. Ishmael's team will win if they outnumber the other living players at any point. He will also survive the first NK and lynch attempt on his life.

I HAVE BEEN WAITITING FOR SO LONG

I shouldn't sign up but of course I'm going to

Wouldn't miss it for the world! Loved these books growing up.

Sweet, that's awesome! We're glad to have you aboard. Hope you enjoy it.

I'm in.

Welcome soup!

After reading the roles I've realized I can't not play this.

Sweet! We haven't played together in too long.

I'm so playing. I love DFaraday games and this theme looks fun!

Hokay!

I would be so embarassed to show you all my annotated copies of these books from my childhood.

Never read the books but this looks like fun.

Count me in.

Now I'm intrigued.

Looking forward to playing with you!

I love this series of books, but I don't know if I can fit a full game into my schedule.

Mark me down as a replacement.

Wow, good job, The Syndicate! What were your search terms? That's so cool.

I'll play this one as well. I think I saw this movie.

I heard they were bringing this movie back to Netflix and I so would want to watch it again! Read the series in grade school so I think I'll enjoy the game a good amount

Huh, interesting, didn't know we were that popular on Google.

Oh, don't forget to vote in the poll by the way! You are signed up either way, but it'll get you in the habit of it.

Weird, it doesn't show up for me. Maybe that's google customizing searches for each person.

I obsessed over these books for a little while when I was younger. I'll jump in if my other mafia obligations clear up in time. If not, you've got a replacement in me.

Yay newbies! And welcome back sprityo!

Now if we could just get that lurker Google [Bot] to join, we'll be set

Started watching the movie tonight with my wife. Funny stuff. I'm pretty excited about this.

I remembered that. I also doubt I'd be able to commit to playing this game. I'm very busy around New Years. /out as a player, /in as a MoD.

Read all the books of this when I was younger, I'm in.

I'll probably sign up eventually, preferably after finals are done (since I'm in 2 games already). I read this series growing up as well. Still got all the books hidden around somewhere.

Hey DF, any chance you could change the poll to changeable votes in case I change my mind?

Never seen the source material, but I'm in.

Awesome.

I heard about the books when I was younger, but never read them. Maybe the game will pique my interest.

Switched to a maybe because of holiday travels. If the game hasn't started by the 27th, then consider me a yes.

This seems like the right opportunity to say that my playing will be incredibly limited from the 15th-25th myself for similar reasons... but I'll just be popping in with phone posting during that time.

Switching to IN!

I will also be incapacitated by travels from December 14th-18th.
