"It's all fun and games until a plastic ball comes to life and ends you."
It used to be that ball pits were places of fun and delight. But in the modern era, children prefer to play with their video games and pursue other types of electronic entertainment. As if that wasn't bad enough, ball pits all over the country are being closed down and replaced with elaborate play areas-monstrosities made of enlarged plastic tubing. To clear out the colorful plastic balls, the humans have thrown in balls that don't belong to take care of them. But the balls in one pit are not going down without a fight. It's time for the ultimate battle between human and sphere-Friend and Foe,-and it's not going to be pretty...or safe for ages 3 and up.

show: GUIDE
Here is my game goes: -First, there will be a sign-up period. If you want to join in, now's your chance. Should you change your mind, make it clear you no longer want to play. Don't just delete your sign-up post, disappear, or spring it on me at the last minute. -When enough people have signed up, the game will start. Each player will get a PM from me, telling them what their role is and explaining any abilities they might have. -All times will be EST. Day Phase will start and last no more than a week. If a majority is reached in the voting, I will end it sooner. During this phase, vote for who you want to see thrown out of the ball pit or for no one to be. You can only vote for a different player if you unvote the one you already voted for. Both of these MUST be in bold and in RED, and you MUST state who you are unvoting, or I will not count it. Ties will be broken with a program like Randomizer. If you can and would like to use one of your role abilities, PM me accordingly. When you do, please be clear and include something in the title that references your role/action. This makes it easier for me. Also, note that the order in which actions are sent in is irrelevant, unless it is stated otherwise. -Night Phase starts when Day Phase ends and at most will last two days. During this time, the Foes will choose a person to throw out of the ball pit. The Godfather or whichever Foe role has the ability to do that, must PM me their choice, or no one will be tossed away. If you can and would like to use one of your role abilities, PM me. If you do not wish to act, please tell me so. Night can end early if everyone has finished. As mentioned above, the order actions are sent in is irrelevant. -A Night post will be made, usually informing players who was thrown out and what their role was, while vaguely mentioning other things that happened during the phase. Day will then begin again. -The game continues and will usually only end when either the Foes have outnumbered the Friends or the Friends have eliminated all the Foes. However, there are other roles that many also claim victory along with the winnning side. -There are three types of roles(Friend, Foe, and Independant).
